It always blows my mind reading this "my new app is going to take down Facebook and Tik Tok" energy from people with shitloads of money. Like, I get it when some random techbro is convinced he's going to be the next Zuck because he doesn't understand market capture or critical mass for social media, but how do you talk like this and convince some billionaire angel investor to throw money at you? Surely at some point they're going to stop, pay someone to spend ten minutes explaining why this is a terrible idea to them, and go blow their money on some other braindead startup instead?
