This level of political engagement seems kind of out of character for him

Is he just kissing ass, or is there genuine frustration on decaying business culture? It feels like both he and Musk are idealizing some kind of past version of SV where WLB was less of a concern

Maybe he has some political ambitions.

Maybe he's trying to get cred with trump so that he can try to have influence over the tik-tok ban (a huge competitor).
