Some cool ideas here, but Garry Tan really can't be leading this organization after his death threats at elected officials.

If picking investors is a bit like a marriage, it's a bit scary. Who'd want to commit to having Garry in their cap table for the next 10 years? I say this as a potential applicant.

I don't entirely disagree generally, but I suspect the answer is "people who want money" and that might be enough for many of them to bypass any potential concerns.
