"Church" definitely isn't a jewish last name tbf. But it would be what you assume outside of that

He's a typical confused boomer and also British which muddles things a bit more. He's anti-Israel and pro-Palestine, pro- mass-jeet immigration (despite moving to a tiny all-white town in England), but would angrily deny being called anti-semitic and would never say anything against Jews (besides the Israeli government).

your thing is powerful men who guide society though, and paul graham is one of the single most important people in shaping our current system. ycombinator and its tentacles are more important structurally now than any singular tech company. there's a reason sam altman is the CEO of openAI

is he? is he actively involved in what y combinator does at all? i seriously doubt it

he's a legit fucking retard man, i'm not just exaggerating because i don't like the guy. you can read through the ass sunstein thread above if you don't believe us. actual moron who does not understand anything about the world

he's not as active in its day to day anymore but he was by far the single most important person in shaping how it operates and how it is connected to the SV/VC ecosystem. without paul graham not only does YC not exist, there is probably nothing like it to this day. I'm not saying he isn't retarded in many ways, just that if your thing is Influential Great Man Hero Worship he belongs in a very high tier.

pensive's whole beef with PG was centered around how YC is essentially a virus which has infected the entire silicon valley ecosystem and structure btw--he would be the first to agree about how important PG was. politically pensive is a hardcore lib and probably agrees with a lot of what you deem "stupid" about PG

let me put it this way: all the tech bros you worship themselves worship at the altar of Paul Graham (aside from Musk). they might have spats about politics sometimes, but at the end of the day they are his disciples

i mean the dude is just a fucking idiot and the evidence is incontrovertible. it's possible he was smart and savvy when he was younger and he has severely declined with age. google says he's 60 so that seems very unlikely, but it's possible

i can't find any evidence that he was personally responsible for y combinator's success - not that they did or do anything other than take monopoly money and throw it at people

sam altman, in comparison, is actually very intelligent. you can say bad stuff about him too, but he's obviously smart, and you can tell just from listening to him talk for a few minutes. paul graham sounds like an idiot in live interviews and also on twitter. the overwhelmingly likely explanation is that he is in fact an idiot

There's a reason Pensive desperately wanted this guy to acknowledge him, although he ultimately never did.
