He specifically means Engineers and "High IQ" men, and it's because of his grandfather - who was a hardline Technocrat and part of a kind of Ayn Randesque cult called "Technology Incorporated".

...but his grandfather didn't think the cult went far enough:

So that's where he's getting his ideas/inclinations.
