so Andreessen Horowitz posted another manifesto just over a week ago and it’s the most banal fash shit you can imagine:
Regulatory agencies have been green lit to use brute force investigations, prosecutions, intimidation, and threats to hobble new industries, such as Blockchain.
Regulatory agencies are being green lit in real time to do the same to Artificial Intelligence.
does this shit ever get deeper than Regulation Bad? fuck no it doesn’t. is this Horowitz’s attempt to capitalize on the Supreme Court’s judiciary coup? you fucking bet.
here’s some more banal shit:
We find there are three kinds of politicians:
Those who support Little Tech. We support them.
Those who oppose Little Tech. We oppose them.
Those who are somewhere in the middle – they want to be supportive, but they have concerns. We work with them in good faith.
I find there are three kinds of politicians:
- those who want hamburger. I give them hamburger.
- those who abstain from hamburger. I do not give them hamburger.
- those who have questions about hamburger. I refer them to the shift supervisor in good faith.
I nearly downvoted this post on reflex

Just reminds me of this:
Like, if the current world isn’t giving you sufficient free reign to change the world with your money then the problem isn’t that you need more freedom the problem is that you keep demanding even more power.
@self My eyes started to warp inside out at “hobble new industries, such as Blockchain.”.
Holy Hamburger, what a big smelly lie!
This farkchain is a disaster to humanity, to environment, and even to fantasy of avoid banks and state taxation by making own payments processing space!
Quickly this “small” industry require own expensive equipment, wasting electricity like crazy to poop hash sums for 1 nanosecond faster than other billionaire’s “mining farm” in other datacenter…

Wow, Andreesen Horowitz, guy who wouldn’t acknowledge government repression if a working class person was being bludgeoned with police batons in front of his eyes, thinks he was persecuted for Blockchain.
Makes it sound as if The Gobment sent SWAT teams to sieze the Means of Tax Deduction out of SBFs bloodied hands and then set fire to his luxurious Bahama mansion, whereas the reality is that they… Mostly looked at all the fraud for years until they had enough pages of stern words to warrant an indictment after it all collapsed to shit and people couldn’t get their money back.
This guy would’ve been on Madoff’s side, crying persecution on his arrest, wouldn’t he?
