The argument he is arguing against is that the workers create the wealth, and profit is that unpaid surplus labor time that the LPs/VCs/founders expropriate from the workers creating wealth. You can't "share" profits with workers when workers are creating all the wealth, the LPs/VCs etc. expropriate profits from workers.

So if the people providing the funding weren't there, where would the salary for the workers who are currently getting their surplus labor expropriated come from? If these workers are getting unjustly exploited, then what's to keep them from starting a co-op together where they share all profits? Plenty of co-ops exist in modern day capitalist societies, including several successful ones like WinCo in the US and Mondragon Corporation in Spain. No one is forcing these employees to give up their "surplus labor" to investors.
