In another sign of how corrupt and out-of-control leaders of Big Tech are, Gary Tan, venture capitalist and CEO of Y Combinator, has prompted death threats on 5 San Francisco supervisors after tweeting to them: "Die slow motherfuckers." A few days later, the supes found flyers at their homes containing death threats.
Besides showing how privileged and out-of-touch Tan is, this transgression is ironic. Two years ago, he funneled $100,000 into the recall of progressive district attorney Chesa Boudin, arguing that he was responsible for a flurry of assaults on Asians living in the city. What can we do to put a check on Big Tech leaders who abuse their oversized power and privilege?
