What do you think the purpose of VC vetting is? It's right there in the name: Capital. You know the thing they optimize for is capital, right?
Making even more money?
'chart goes up and to the right' seems to excuse a great many lapses in morality in the modern era.
YC doesn’t vet. It’s a sweatshop for startups. They need volume. For this reason, YC cohorts have always been full of wankers. Er, “wantrepreneurs”.
Ha! The sweatshop for startups has finally produced a startup that wants to help sweatshops grind their workers into dust. The circle is finally complete!
More of a "fractal", if you ask me, but there's definitely a similar pattern here:
Wanting to maximize profits by squeezing work out of less-fortunate people, efficiently, and at scale.
The circle will complete when the co-op spaces install this new system so startup founders can watch their employees. And then the circle will make another loop and VCs can watch the startup founders.
