Why are most geeks conservative?

Well, that's an observation I've been led to over the years..

Cause in socialist society there wouldn't be animu because there wouldn't be commercial entertainment. Geeks aren't stupid and  realize that there is society beyond their house(or basement...), they just don't like to associate with it much. Socialism would also FORCE them to work for real in the end. Socialism is not same as social security. Also geeks love all kinds of porn, guns and other things socialists would be first to ban. Also not all geeks are failures at making money. Many are in fact highly educated and make bigger bucks than most non-geeks. Many geeks have also their own businesses like commercial websites or computer/gaming stores. Some geeks are libertarians just because they love personal freedom, but for some it's also about defending their economical interests. Socialist geeks exist, but they're part of big and very diverse anarchist kind that includes both left and right wing geeks. Geeks aren't politically very united, but one thing that unites all geeks is love of freedom and liberty. Authoritarian geeks simply don't exist. Perhaps some could consider it odd considering their often simple lifestyles, but you have to realize that freedom applies also to interweb which is where most geeks truly live.
