I've made an egregious error. The Y Combinator leadership has expressed a lot of firm, unequivocal opposition to Donald Trump personally, and I have little doubt that they oppose his anti-immigration policies. Ironically it's because I use no social media, so I don't see these battles play out. I sincerely always liked the organization and its leadership, and I think I was victim to a particular drive-by accusation. Also, it seems like most of the venture capital leadership elsewhere, including powerful S&P500 chief executives, have eagerly collaborated, but it is wrong to generalize.
- dang 2y agoAh, got it. No worries! I was just a bit confused because the YC leaders I know have been public advocates for (legal) immigration, for reasons that are not hard to understand: YC helps many startup founders come to the U.S.. Many with Peter's help!
