Not to be ungracious, but I am not dumb enough to think they care about people more than anyone else does, but they are less tacky and I will take that:

I will say this for Zuckerberg-he is a very non-polarizing figure. He is almost universally disliked, the way certain other public officials are universally respected. He is a unifying force in his own way.
I am hoping some combination of genuine philosophical evolution, human ingenuity and good taste rescue us as a species. I hope the combined efforts of Elizabeth Warren (good govt) and Apple (better industrial practices), send Zuckerberg (one of the pests who invented the data science factory farm) into oblivion, the way I hope Corey Booker and lab-grown meat end factory farming.

Of course most Facebook and Google employees seem like decent enough people and they vote Dem. Presumably, they are good on green issues and animal welfare. The business model still sucks and the leadership is awful.
