Why the big fuss about saying some startups are "bad"? I'm sure some startups are bad. There's certainly a possibility that some bad startups looked good and made it through the screening process. Other accepted bad startups may have been risky bets that didn't payoff. I think at least a few people have a problem with the directness and harshness of the statement. But if I was one of those bad startups, I'd appreciate the candor and directness. That would be far preferable to someone being "nice" and allowing me to continue down the wrong path. Being "nice" isn't really that nice at all.
