I swear I've been thinking the same thing. I've been watching all of his podcasts and have learned a tremendous amount from him. He's a genuinely remarkable man.
I need to listen to this podcast carefully, from the beginning, again. It is so very optimistic. Mark Andreesen is phenomenal. I only recently figured out who he is.
Because he was hiding the last two decades while getting insanely rich off the very same Commie tech platforms he's now speaking out against. 🙄 This is just another Commie tech overlord desperately trying not to get "United Healthed".
MA is such a good teacher. I appreciate how he inserts real life examples into his answers so the audience can easily grasp an otherwise confusing concept
1:04:30 San Francisco was not the first to call out woke and non sensical ideas, average American populists were. That point is very important and should be articulated. The tech right is standing on the shoulders of many average Americans who had more courage than they did, and we’re right far before them.
Populism just means selling the general public false promises, when you're not actually against the problem. Like a border wall, for example. You really think this Republican party is going to break up the under regulated labor market problem? Looks to me like not enforcing tax and business regulation is the actual problem.
San Francisco was the source of wokeness, tech bros at Twitter and Google the biggest proponents. Even those that did not agree with it never spoke out against it. They think we will just forget. Google and Apple are still completely all-in too.
This is fantastic! I don't think I've ever been disappointed by a single pmarca interview. That said, title saddens me. You know a channel/podcast/whatever has burnt its following by recycling old content when it has to preface an episode title with "NEW: "
In the lefts defense they have been fully weaponized to fight for gay and minority rights for 50 years, it makes sense that after winning that fight they continued to stay weaponized and fought ghosts since. Similar to an autoimmune system response that damages an organ.
@@cmschleich might as well just put on clown makeup because this tech circle jerk bubble is the only place they have left where they can pretend to have any credibility
@@jacilynh we're not holding our breath, just hope they read this and read the room a bit better because from what i can tell they are chattering about from the kid's table
Sorry but wokeness is NOT over. Maybe a sliver of the power these ppl were exercising against others has been removed BUT they still think the same way, they still have the connections that made it possible to abuse others, and they still have all of the money. They need to be fully exposed and held full on accountable for the damage they did to real peoples lives.
They will 100% turn into wolfs in sheep’s clothing. They’ll simply go underground so to speak, and disguise much of their actions. These types of people would rather burn it down than give up power.
They are inculcated in every branch of the biggest bureaucracy in the world and every institution in the country. It's a daunting task. I think its reprieve & we should be building defenses & strengthening our communities, whatever those are to you, for the long haul. We will see.
@@spudruckus7297 The US private sector is the biggest bureaucracy in the world. And, if you want to keep blaming the government, don't be surprised when the government decides to fix your problem. Take a look at your healthcare and insurance industries. Privatization doesn't make the problem better, it makes it worse. Difference is your business leaders stop whining about it, and start petitioning the government to keep the bureaucracy large and in charge.
The idea that SF is first-in, first-out on culture now is just wrong. The change was led by MAGA here, they broke the taboos explicitly with Trump, took all the social shame for it, and silicon valley followed. And they will ultimately call the shots since they have the voting power to direct policy much more than tech has. If anything the new cultural leaders are probably Nashville, Florida, Texas, and it's not just politically, also musically (see the emergence of country music as a shockingly dominant cultural force). Wouldn't be surprised if there's a full red tribe replacement of Hollywood soon, and it'll likely be very competitive. I get he has to flatter himself and his friends, it's just not true.
What cowards these tech leaders were (aside from Elon and a few others) to have known what was going on, known how authoritarian and illiberal it was, known it was illegal, and known how bad it was for our country and just went along with it.
Elon too, and Vivek, and Vance, and Theil... They're all just flipping now to try to avoid being "United Healthed" for what they've done to our country. They knew what they were doing all along.
@@fbinformantI think this assumption is wrong. It might be true in the very short term (2-3 weeks), but in the mid to long term its going to be very bad for views.
1:33:50. to Andreesson's point on lights being shut out, in Europe, they shut out some exterior lights in some big church for the first time. Lights that used to stay on always at night.
I am glad Marc talked about mediocre European bureaucrats getting beyond itself in regards to US companies. I would like to see the new administration put an end to that nonsense.
The way Rand describes the President is actually the way the founders wanted him to act on national matters. Internationally he was to be more active, he was to have little power over the states and thus citizens of Florida or Utah or Alaska would not have their lives by him at all.
at around 4:20 mark, Marc is talking about what how different what he was taught in school vs. discovering "it's not like that at all". I guess I was very fortunate that the one class I had, simply named "Governement" and was the only class I recall that absolutely everyone was required to take (and pass) was taught by an instructor that made a clear disctition between how laws were intended vs. how they are often actually applied. Gerrymandering was just one example, selective application of a law for some groups but not for others was another. This was in a universe far far away at the start of the 60s in California.
I pray to God everyday for my two boys we go back. No more "Give them Bread and Circus and they will never revolt." It's our Godly Duty to be informed and actively engaged in politics and the direction of our country and the world.
The best definition of government which also exposes its illegitimacy: 'A group of people claiming to have the right to the initiation of the use of force within a geographical boundary.' The Non-Aggression Principle: One should not initiate force against others or their property. Force is only permissible in defense, i.e., in response to aggression that has already been initiated by someone else.
Appreciate your perspective on banking regulations - being in the banking software industry for 30 years saw the crazy stuff we had to implement and spend time on in development because of DEI and regs…and yes, the regulators did become insufferable.
The preference falsification take ignores that a lot of people in tech did believe the dumb things and only now realize how dumb they were. Like Jason. Because others lead the way.
so the interviewer did just let marc andreessen talk for 90 minutes without asking any real questions? like andreessen: "best team in history of the US" about trump admin. interviewer: "yeah, right". lmao. just tech bros playing balls to each other.
At 24:50 Marc describes how possessing the Ring of Power means that people will stop telling you unpleasant truths. This is also called "the Dictator's Dilemma".
The survey of how religions feel about each other revealing evangelicals have a net 40 positive view of Jews isn’t surprising at all. They are Bible literalists and the Bible says God will bless any people who stand by Israel and curse those who do not. That’s why it’s very challenging for Christians to differentiate between their feelings about the actions of political leadership of Israel the country versus their feelings of support for Jewish people in general
@@leahdowns1737 Agreed... and my point was to let them know that they don't. I moved to the rural south to get away from the cult of Covidiots. Now I may have to move again to get away from the cult of Israe-diots. 🙄
"challenging for Christians to differentiate between their feelings about the actions of political leadership of Israel the country versus their feelings of support for Jewish people in general." I talk to a lot of evangelicals on social media. Why should they differentiate them? In fact their understanding as conservatives is that they are deeply interlinked in these days especially.
I'm glad I'm not these types of people's psychiatrist, because they would take entire careers fixing. SHOCK FULL of misconceptions and weird beliefs. Does living inside the broader reality secluded & detached bubbles for too long cause this? 🤔 ⚠️ Yikes! 😳😬
Always had a problem with Atlas Shrugged on the scapegoating and running away from the problems. It just never sat well with me. Always liked her first novel, We the Living, because it was autobiographical. Also the tyranny in the novel could be both a lefty or a righty type.
I’m generally a big fan of this show but fuck sometimes tech people are narrow minded. In the first minute he says san Fran sisco is the cultural centre of the universe and I can tell you there’s hundreds of millions of people who do not feel that way.
Deriving so much pleasure from this podcast tour that Marc has been on

This is Marc's most wide-ranging post election interview yet. Thanks for this!
MA is such a good teacher. I appreciate how he inserts real life examples into his answers so the audience can easily grasp an otherwise confusing concept
So much great information but I need to listen at .7 speed
Me too!
1x was perfect which means he speaks at the correct speed. I usually run 1.2 ha ha. Depends on the speaker. I could see .8 for Marc.

Great interview. I enjoyed this one!
Fantastic interview
Great stuff. Try it at 2x for fun. I wish I could think as fast as Marc. A+
Can't get enough of Marc. Fucking Brilliant.
the SF tech crowd was the leading vanguard for wokeness, normal americans haven't forgotten and you've never apologized for it.
In the lefts defense they have been fully weaponized to fight for gay and minority rights for 50 years, it makes sense that after winning that fight they continued to stay weaponized and fought ghosts since. Similar to an autoimmune system response that damages an organ.
So is academia and they aren’t apologizing at all.
@@cmschleich might as well just put on clown makeup because this tech circle jerk bubble is the only place they have left where they can pretend to have any credibility
It seems like they are apologizing, thus this video. Marc brought up his mistakes.

Excellent interview. You just kinda let him talk with good questions at appropriate times. I love your style, better than Bari, Subscribed.
Brilliant interview ! Thank you.
Great video 😊
Excellent. Thank you, gentlemen.
Incredible discussion. I follow closely, and find that Marc describes the situation with enormous clarity and insight.

Yeah, but the same people are going to have all the money until we get someone in DC that knows how to use the tax hammer.

Correct - they will just lay dormant for 4 years and return to form when the left seizes control permanently in 2028.

I’ll push back against his San Francisco being the cultural center. Most of the nation never bought into its agenda.

I have really been enjoying Mr. Andreessen talk on podcasts. Great insight into how contemporary companies operate
Some great questions! And great responses as always!
This was soooo good!! Just keep saying stuff out loud

We held it off for the most part here in Florida. I guess we’re too far from SF for what’s going on there to affect us.
Without our governor, it probably wouldn't have happened.
The way Rand describes the President is actually the way the founders wanted him to act on national matters. Internationally he was to be more active, he was to have little power over the states and thus citizens of Florida or Utah or Alaska would not have their lives by him at all.
At 7:40, Eich's donation was in favor of a ballot proposition THAT WAS SUCCESSFUL in California. It became the law via a plebiscite.

"Israel" just means "God's people".
