- mantap 7y agoYou do realise this forum is run by a venture capital firm? If you're being downvoted it's not because HN is a communist stronghold.
- busterarm 7y agoYou do realize that Y Combinator the business is a separate entity from the thoughts and views of the thousands of people who comment here, right? pg and dang aren't sitting here in the comments slapping everyone for posting their political ideologies. There certainly is not a small number of commenters with a negative view of capitalism here. Just search for phrases like "late stage capitalism" and you'll find them.
