Why is there this myth that there is a "community" or "family" of entrepreneurs?

Startup founders are actually competitors - for funding, for sales, for attention etc etc etc

The scale that should be expected between entrepreneurs goes from "Open Hostility" on one end to "Cold War" on the other.

You should expect any "positivity" you get to be fake, stupid or both. If you receive better, you should take it as a bonus.

It's the same way Corporate HR is not the employee's friend.
