Anyone Else Hate Techy VC Guys?

Can’t stand these type of dudes.. think they’re the smartest guys in the room, usually born into an upper middle class or wealthy family with tons of connections to fundraise for their “bootstrapped” businesses.. which has a trillion dollar TAM and is going to revolutionize the world etc etc


drives me fucking NUTS

 

Yes. I grew up around them. Some of them are very well connected to very powerful people in government. It's disturbing.

"Work ethic, work ethic" - Vince Vaughn
 

Worst part is the narcissism. Everybody else, no matter the industry, just has a job. VC guys? Well, they're boldly taking new steps and building the future by paying way too much money to get into a zero revenue enterprise UI company.

 

Indians not born in the states are not as likely to be startup bros because they need a company to sponsor their visas.  At least that's what my foreign friends tell me.

Cryptocurrency people are worse.  Not the ones who try their luck at DogeCoin or Shiba Una and understand it's a gamble, I'm talking about the ones that buy hook line and sinker into that nonsense.  They have the same "change the world" technobabble as VC guys, but there are two additional dimensions they add to it:

1. Politics.  They usually have some kind of retarded political philosophy where they think fiat currencies are going to collapse even though they've been around for 90 years.  Or that it's "decentralized" hahaha what happened in China then Einstein?  Or they're fighting the rich guys and bankers, in between sessions of jerking off Elon, Mark Cuban, or Dorsey.

2. Self-Improvement.  They sell their cryptocurrency as the get rich quick scheme of a lifetime, with the fervor of a Southern preacher saving souls.  But it seems like this always happens right before the ATH.
