Catching up on some of the "Little Tech" rhetoric from a16z. A lot more to say here.
But one thing that stands out as a rhetorical flaw in the pitch: curbing Big Tech startup acquisitions is listed as bad for little tech. Even as little tech is presented as the enabler of competition and innovation, contra Big Tech's market consolidation. Consolidation that is, of course, facilitated via acquisitions.
@Mer__edith How the fuck – excuse my French – does a fucking billionaire purport to champion “little” anything without getting laughed out of every fucking room?
@Mer__edith You want Small Tech, this is Small Tech:

It’s the exact fucking opposite of what Marc fucking Andreessen and his fucking cabal of fascist-adjacent VCs stand for.
