For me, “Techbro” exclusively refers to people who repackage existing ideas and sell them as an innovation to VC investors. Think of how many techbros keep reinventing trains and boats, but worse.
I picture those who didn’t embrace geek culture or esthetics, leaning more towards jock and fraternity culture instead, but who saw money in computers.
I felt the same, and I want sports to be a vehicle for teaching people about fitness, and teamwork. I am not sure I still do, it so often dissolves into toxic competition, self harm, injury, violence, riots and a general us against them attitude.
I hope people get good things from sports and avoid the bad things.

That’s how I’ve always interpreted it. Specifically about toxic jocks though, nothing inherently wrong with enjoying sports.

Plenty of traditionally nerdy things devolve into those as well. Except riots maybe.
