This is YCombinator's largest exit ever. Sam seems to be asking for the support of the crowd, both against Jeremy, and in support of the acquisition with GM. It makes sense, but it's also airing their dirty laundry. It comes across as a bit embarassing that some of the top advisors, investors, and lawyers in Silicon Valley allowed this potential deal-breaker through their due diligence process. It sounds like if it was dealt with at the Seed or Series A stage, this ex-founder would have left on much simpler terms.
