VC Ben #Horowitz donates to #HarrisWalz campaign

Reading between the lines, it is clear that they are only doing it grudgingly, and only after the realization that #KamalaHarris is likely to win #Election2024 — So, why not build bridges instead of burning them down like Marc #Andreesen did by endorsing #Trump?

The #AndreesenHorowitz partner makes an implicit threat to #Harris — #Biden has been destructive to us, and you better DO BETTER on #Crypto 👀

ai6zers,

I'wanted to give you an update on my political activity. As I mentioned before, Felicia and I have known Vice President Harris for over 10 years and she has been a great friend to both of us during that time. She's also been a friend to the firm in our early days, helping with several events at my house when we built the original Cultural Leadership Fund network.

As a result of our friendship, Felicia and I will be making a significant donation to entities who support the Harris Walz campaign.

From a firm perspective, we continue to only take positions consistent with our Little Tech Agenda and how the various candidates that support or don't support policies to build a strong startup technology industry.

Although I have had several conversations with Vice President Harris and her team on their likely tech policies and am encouraged by my belief in her, they have not yet stated what their tech policy will be, so the firm will not be updating its position in that regard.

As we stated earlier, the Biden Administration has been exceptionally destructive on tech policy across the industry, but especially as it relates to Crypto/Blockchain and AI.

So, while I am very hopeful that the Harris Administration will be much better, they have not yet stated their intentions.

Carry on,

Ben

"Did you ever wonder why the 21st century feels like (...) a bad #cyberpunk novel from the 1980s?

It's because these guys read those cyberpunk novels and mistook a #dystopia for a road map. They're rich enough to bend reality to reflect their desires. But we're not #futurists, we're entertainers! We like to (write) b/c it's a cool setting for a noir detective story, not b/c we think #MarkZuckerberg or #AndreesenHorowitz should actually pump several billion dollars into creating it.

5/n

@hkrn good. Let #AndreesenHorowitz bleed money until it's dead.
