for "venture" capitalists
becoming a paper unicorn is the next box to tick

how many of you brag about getting an exit

lmao you're not even living, bro

just a schmoozing spirit chasing the insipid feeling of being more important than

fawning sycophantic goons

this has some fascinating real world implications. the amount of young people who have been oneshotted by tiktok edits of the social network or performative "how I got into YC" videos are growing exponentially. being a founder implies intelligence, status, risk-taking, wealth

so naturally the cultural shift in startup ecosystem has moved from contrarian rule breakers and hackers to the overachieving STEM kids, for whom being a founder is simply the next box to tick. money is not a motivator. it never was. what does this mean for VCs?
