There’s a story that Mark Zuckerberg has told dozens of times over the years. Shortly after he’d launched Facebook in February 2004, he went to get pizza with Kang-Xing Jin, a coder friend who would become a Facebook executive, at a place around the corner from his dorm.
...
Looking back, it’s also clear that they had no experience with community building, organizing, sociology, social work, or any other discipline that might have helped them understand the social forces they were unleashing, quantifying, amplifying, and warping. Mark Zuckerberg was just a kid eating pizza after writing some code.
...
Zuckerberg was triumphant about the changes Facebook had wrought, calling the internet “a force for peace in the world.” Connecting people on Facebook was building a “common global community” with a “shared understanding.” He went to the UN and talked up what he and his pizza eaters had done.
...
“We were just college kids. We didn’t know anything about [connecting the whole world]. There were all these big technology companies with resources. I just assumed one of them would do it,” he said, retelling his Facebook-launch pizza story at Harvard’s commencement.

If you're going to be eating pizza, you might as well have fried chicken on top of that pizza
I think it is all about the last line...worship tech at your own demise but don't lump all of humanity in with the weakness of some. There are plenty of people who don't

The technology holds promise to be used for good but I agree totally with you. You can't win the game playing on the beast's field

Tech only advances man for man.
Tech is proving out like never before in recorded time.
It has destroyed the human species that worships it.
