Silicon Valley brained people love to talk about "disruption", but you start suggesting that the best solutions to the climate crisis might involve the government nationalizing multiple industries, investing massively in new infrastructure, and a dramatic deployment of labor and suddenly they lose their minds

@malcircuit Like most things in VC culture, disruption is only cool when THEY do it.

@malcircuit it's because disruption just means "how can I make money in a new way" or "how can I upend this monopoly for my own benefit" and nothing to do with actually disrupting how the system works.

"But that would upend everything! So much would change!"

"No, no, no! I meant disruption through innovation!"

Yeah, I've got this new innovation called, "just doing it without regard to the profitability because that's what we need"
