When people underestimate/ denigrate / ignore or dismiss you and don't want to look.. that's when it's easy to compete and prove them wrong. Very strange to see such a behavior from someone like PG (with YC's ethos ring the opposite). Only goes to reinforce SV's pretentiousness.https://twitter.com/paulg/status/1122618415678722050 …
Oh come on, it was just a joke. (Though apparently one that hit an extremely sensitive – might one say oversensitive? – nerve.)

As a Serbian and European I would say the joke was on a spot and a good one

Since your tweet, somebody already created a YC-clone in EU that takes 90% in exchange for wisdom and synergy-opportunities.

Usually by now a European would have grudgingly conceded your point while observing that, in contrast, medicine is free there. Godwin’s law of sorts.

I don't particularly care as I move around - could have been Africa / Asia. Was really bad in the past, but my experience is that bad-terms investors exist everywhere and probably rest-of-US without SV compares very similarly. (Also, FWIW, that's a very classic bully response)

One might with as much justice say that your reply was the classic response of someone feeling a sense of inferiority. After all, you picked this fight. That tweet you quoted was just a reply to an individual user. You made an issue out of it by quote-tweeting it.
