> Why this is, is an interesting question but it hits on too many taboo topics. Though perhaps rational discussion becoming taboo is itself a part of the reason. I'm sure you fail to see the contradiction in claiming that "rati

Roundup, last I heard, is not a natural product and its worldwide impact in insect biomass is at the level of the largest mass extinctions in history. Likewise the biomass of humans and cattle have an impact that can definitely be considere

I don't think anything that could even be mentioned as VC despises its own clients as much as a16z. Trying to sell investors on NFTs in 2026 should be criminal.

There is something extremely twisted about making boycotts illegal. At any rate what's stopping the institutions from making other arguments about boycotts that only incidentally target Israel? For example, they have every argument to

Is that Al Gore's responsibility or is the Republican's responsibility of their policies being basically "anything that Democrats do is bad and therefore we oppose it"?
