Andreessen and Co. have always been part of this strange utopian Libertarianism where they believe with all their hearts, that tech sets you free. I say the word strange, because it's optimistic, and forward looking, and not cynical. Peter Thiel used to be the main "villain" while the others kept to themselves. Seems that's not the case anymore, and they are more comfortable speaking their minds. Realistically though, as an outsider, I think X.com has just become their echo chamber and they've all lost the plot.
