No, I don't want to become an Angular GDE

A critical opinion piece on the Angular GDE (Google Developers Experts) program, arguing it fosters a fear-driven culture where GDEs are restricted from speaking freely about Angular's issues. The author describes a communication manifesto that enforces scripted, overly-positive messaging, poor access to the Angular team for community members and GDEs alike, and incidents of harassment within the program that went largely unpunished. The piece also highlights a long history of talented Angular team members leaving due to a toxic work environment, and calls on the Angular team management and GDE program committee to make meaningful changes.
