show moreIf you've felt a vibe shift, you're not alone: there's a massive revolution afoot, led by "America-hating communists."
At least, that's according to Marc Andreessen, the cofounder of the powerful venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, which has made immense sums of money by investing in tech companies ranging from Facebook to Airbnb and is now a key player in the nascent AI industry.
Lately, though, Andreessen has been troubled. Elite institutions, he says, have been churning out radicalized graduates who are destroying his companies from the inside.
"I believe it’s the children of the elites," he told New York Times columnist Ross Douthat this week. "The most privileged people in society, the most successful, send their kids to the most politically radical institutions, which teach them how to be America-hating communists."
"There was a point where the median, newly arrived Harvard kid in 2006 was a career obsessed striver," he seethed, but by "2013, the median newly arrived Harvard kid was like: '[expletive] it. We’re burning the system down. You are all evil. White people are evil. All men are evil. Capitalism is evil. Tech is evil.'"
Pretty soon, Andreessen says these little monsters ended up at his various companies, where they start sowing havoc.
