What an incredibly sarcastic and off putting way to respond. It makes me feel like we should be asking you the same question. Exactly how much of your life is wrapped up in perpetuating things you know to be harmful singularly for enriching yourself? Why is it that such an earnest and straightforward, unemotional comment could drive such intense disdain and emotion out of you? Personally, I think they were completely justified in their statements and asking their questions in a nonjudgemental way. Do you have a guilty conscience?

Never thought I'd see the day someone would dare accuse me of selling out on a Y-fucking-Combinator discussion board.

Its not enough to honestly buy businesses and improve revenues/margins to turn a profit on your investment. No xir, your heart has to be in every single one if those ventures, or you're betraying your personal values. , and that simply won't cut it.

I asked OP a question, they calmly answered it, and the conversation was over.

Meanwhile, you and this other user have done nothing but the equivalent of throwing a tantrum in a public place, making insensitive insinuations that blew right back in your face, attempting to derail the conversation, and doubling down instead of treating this as a learning moment. I hate to break it to you, but this is wildly off-topic and the conversation never had anything to do with you.

This has been, without a close second, the funniest thread I’ve ever seen on this website. The poster that started this whole thread cited the rules after telling me to fuck off

		I'm still not certain if it's intentional trolling, or high levels of lacking self-awareness and a lack of imagination in parsing their own sentence.
