　　硅谷科技人士从未隐藏过他们对唐纳德·特朗普的厌恶。本周四，他们的厌恶升级了。145 位技术企业负责人和执行官在网上发表联名信公开反对特朗普的总统竞选活动，并批评了共和党提名他作为总统候选人而对创新带来了潜在的负面影响。在这封公开信上签名的有 Slack 的 CEO Stewart Butterfield、BOX 的 CEO Aaron Levie、Twitter 的联合创始人 Evan Williams 和苹果公司的联合创始人 Steve Wozniak。

　　此联名信针对的是特朗普的一些触及硅谷目前核心问题的想法，比如移民、开放互联网通信和对技术基础设施的投资等。

　　「我们相信一个有利于机遇、创意和公平竞争的包容性国家。」该信中写道，「而唐纳德·特朗普并不是这样。」

　　一家生物科技创业公司 Color Genomics 的一位执行官 Katie Jacobs Stanton 也是这场联名反对的组织者之一，她说，她的同行们最近几周一直在忙这个事情。我们想不断修改这封信和增加参与者，以此显示联名信参与者的多样性背景，从互联网创始人和公司董事，从创新社会企业和创业公司的领导人到技术和社会赋权领域的民权领袖，他们都参与进来 。这封信中还包括了一份免责声明，签名的人不代表他们的公司发言。

　　在这封联名信上签名的人不仅有专业的技术人员，还有风投家、学者和政策专家，但是缺少来自像苹果、Facebook 和谷歌这样顶级公司的大佬们签名。许多最大的科技公司在政治问题上都采取保守态度。五月，Facebook 由于被指控在其部分网站上压制保守内容而忙于与保守党人士修复关系。

　　在硅谷，几乎找不到公开支持特朗普的人，唯一的例外是 Peter Thiel——一位风险投资家和 Facebook 董事会成员，他下周将在共和党全国代表大会上发表讲话。

　　科技界领导人致唐纳德·特朗普的总统候选人资格的公开信：

　　我们是在科技界工作的发明家、企业家、工程师、投资人、研究者和企业领导人。美国的创新让世界羡慕，让我们自豪，这是广泛共享的繁荣之源，是我们的全球领导地位的标志。

　　我们相信一个包容的国家应该是有利于机遇、创意和公平竞争的。而唐纳德·特朗普并不是这样。他的竞选建立在愤怒、偏见、对新思想和新人的恐惧、以及美国很弱并正在继续衰弱的基本信念之上。过去一年来，我们都已经听闻过了唐纳德·特朗普的言论，我们已得出了总结：特朗普将是创新的灾难。他的愿景反对思想的开放交流、人们的自由流动和富有成效地参与对我们的经济有利的外部世界——而这些为创新和增长提供了基础。

　　让我们从推动创新向前发展的人才开始说起。我们相信美国的多样性是我们的强项。伟大的思想来自于社会的各个部分，我们应该捍卫这种基础广泛的创新潜力。我们也相信进步的移民政策能帮助我们吸引并留下世界上最优秀的头脑——科学家、企业家和创造者。事实上，40% 的《财富》500 强企业都是由移民或他们的后代创立的。而唐纳德·特朗普则在兜售民族和种族偏见，一再羞辱女性，而且公开敌视移民。他已经承诺建一道墙、大规模驱逐和歧视性种族评判。

　　我们也相信自由和开放的思想交流（包括互联网上的交流）是创新萌生的种子。唐纳德·特朗普提出将「关停（shutting down）」部分互联网作为一项安全战略——即表现出了糟糕的判断能力，也表现出了对技术工作方式的无知。他的审查嗜好已经延伸了到吊销记者证和威胁惩罚那些批评他的媒体平台。

　　最后，我们相信政府通过对基础设施、教育和科学研究的投资在技术经济中扮演了很重要的角色。唐纳德·特朗普所阐释的政策绝大部分都是飘忽不定和矛盾的声明。他对我们的法律和政治体制的毫无顾忌威胁到了企业在美国的创立和壮大。他会带来扭曲市场、降低出口和减缓创造就业机会的风险。

　　我们反对唐纳德·特朗普分裂美国的候选人资格，我们想要一个会拥抱构建了美国的技术产业的理想的候选人：表达自由、向新来者开放、机会平等、科研和基础设施的公共投资和尊重法制。我们拥抱更具包容性的国家的乐观愿景，其中美国的创新将继续推动美国的机遇、繁荣和领导地位。
