Is there the opposite list? VCs like Ackman, Sacks, Calcanis, Cuban all firmly belong on it. Nothing from them but blame directed at others (biden, yellen, zelinsky, the fed, fdic, regulations – everyone but themselves), dangerous misinformation (including fake photos and videos of bank runs), and demands for an immediate government bailout. I wish someone would compile a video of how quickly these "rugged libertarians" have done a 180 on their views on regulation and "socialism" now that their own money is on the line.

There … is?

Right below that there’s another bracket of “trying to tweet through it”, a lot of the folks behind the We Support An SVB Successor thing, which then, as Paul Graham did, lectured people that they can’t really do anything because their LP agreements forbid it.

Didn’t know YC was a non-profit and Paul’s involvement was a $85k salary and no carry/returns…

Push came to shove, some people stepped or are stepping up, some didn’t.

If someone created a twitter bot right now that was able to pull old hard libertarian tweets from these people and post them as replies that would be...entertaining. Hypocrite-bot?
