An interesting thing about Andreesen’s little rant about the “woke mind virus” is: this guy has a *job*. Bazillions of people who also have jobs keep their wacko opinions to themselves, because, well, they are aware it would hurt them in the pocketbook.
It alarms me that the Andreesen class thinks that implausible claims that AI would share his prejudices won’t cause investors to shy away from him. He must assume tribal affinity pushes aside profit motive. Huh. Who woulda thunk it?

I believe it's called narcicism and a billion dollars seems to be one of the main causes.
@marick He's wrong about AI and wokeness of course, but he's right about tribal affinity. That rant will probably be a net positive on his balance sheet, sadly.
