Funny coming from decendends of brits (Just playing the same game as them
It’s so weird listening to people like that.
They’ve spent so much time metaphorically jerking eachother off and gassing eachother up, that they don’t realize their projection is VERY obvious.
Capitalists come from a culture that lies about everything.
If venture capitalists don’t like him, I do.
Wait—I thought the VCs were actually saying that his comments were hateful…which they are.
I get your sentiment, and generally I agree, but in this case aren’t they right? This guy said something hateful and Islamosist (not a word but “Islamophobia” isn’t strong enough and actually, I think, proliferates hatred toward Islamic people) and the VCs actually came together to sign a letter saying it was wrong.
Am I misunderstanding this super weirdly formatted website?
No, you’re right. But also,
Al-Falih [one of the VCs] said in an email that he does not endorse Mamdani but found Maguire’s comments over the holiday weekend “appalling.”
Nowhere in that article does it suggest that any of these VCs support Mamdani. They’re only trying to distance themselves from someone who said the quiet part out loud.
This smells so much like class warfare like nothing else in recent memory
I mean… I can think of a lot worse things in recent days
This one is just extra transparent, because they’re panicking

“Maguire, an avid X poster best known for his investments in SpaceX and xAI,”
Tells me all I need to know about this dude.
For a minute I thought Sequoia act was some obscure act of government that the administration would use to ‘nullify’ Mamdani’s win.
you are not alone
What, America?
Everybody right there is the problem.
You mean the MAGA American culture? Yeah, Sequoia MAGA culture as hard as you can too while you’re at it.
This guy just said, “Not all black people are [explitive] but some are” for Muslims in the replies, admitting “islamists” is equivalent to the n-word for him. Zionists are a literal plague on society.
I don’t think he’s religious lol
