Startup Threads is a cool idea. If you're one of the people who is not interested in "swag" just don't sign up. I don't understand why people get offended by products. No one is forcing the "swag." If you've ever run your own startup, there is a certain thrill that comes from sticking your first stickers or wearing your first tshirt. The next greatest thrill is seeing your sticker in the wild on shirt on someone on the street. It's about pride. If people are willing to fund the spread of those feelings, then all the power to them.
