I find Marc Andreesen's mindset interesting and troubling. I could probably right a short book on it; He's so angry, it's very interesting to me the way he describes "the Deal". As like, I dunno, I'm really a narcississtic sociopath who doesn't want to help people, but if you were going to write a nice obituary I guess I would have but now I won't anymore. It's like I think behavioral economics and incentives are interesting, and an important part of how we conduct social policy and face reality, but to lean into like "well fuck you for not providing the right incentives" rather than doing things because of the world you want to create; help people and build non-profits and etc. It all feels very pathological. If this is who he is, then I guess this is who he is! But don't blame the media for "Forcing you" to be shitty. Also, I just don't buy into his whole "the woke elite kept people who grew up in my home towns down through woke/dei" because this is the same person who said: "I’m glad there’s OxyContin and video games to keep those people quiet." The thing is, I'm sure Marc's arguments make sense to alot of the people he's trying to talk to - other rich folks with grievance.
