So they made their decision, everyone can move on. I just hope nobody forgets how prominent VCs behaved during the brief period of uncertainty. The idea of some noble class of investors championing disruption is dead. They're just a bunch of rent seekers like everybody else. For some silly reason I had some respect for the startup industry before this, now I see it as a joke.

It's great at a personal level that "founders" and startup employees didn't have to do without. But it's important to remember that they no longer automatically deserve any credit for taking risks and doing something new. It might as well be a bunch of FAANG employees
