Do the MBAs now running tech just have a hardon for becoming the scifi dystopians they read as children?

Not always, sometimes they like to role-play as fallen angels from fantasy books (see Palantir.) (Edit: upon review, the metaphor is strained because Sauron didn’t create the palantíri… he did control them later, and there is deeper metaphor that they are unreliable.)
If I had a billion dollars I would shrimply role-play as an actual angel
That attitude is sadly probably a small factor in you not having a billion dollars.

Glad to hear you’re not going to be as shellfish as other billionaires.
CEO/founder of Flock has a BS in Electrical Engineering with highest honors from Georgia Tech, and does not appear to have an MBA.
Yes, from what I have seen
The dystopian tech does not seem that bad when you believe you will be the one controlling it.
