Some cool ideas here, but Garry Tan really can't be leading this organization after his death threats at elected officials.

If picking investors is a bit like a marriage, it's a bit scary. Who'd want to commit to having Garry in their cap table for the next 10 years? I say this as a potential applicant.

  • I don't entirely disagree generally, but I suspect the answer is "people who want money" and that might be enough for many of them to bypass any potential concerns.

  • Everyone who values what Garry can bring to the table, so probably 99% of applicants. ;-)

If you believe that these elected officials have facilitated the deaths of 100s of people and the suffering of many more then... (btw I think they pretty much have fueled the drug and lawlessness epidemic in SF)

  • Ironically, people like Garry have actually fueled said epidemic, by contributing to ever-rising inequality, driving people to the streets, where they turn to crime and drugs.

They were lyrics from a Tupac song. Clearly you are just not happy with the political environment in SF changing even slightly
