Founder poll! I had a debate w/another VC last week. My stance: it's better to talk to founders respectfully even if it means holding back harsh but accurate feedback. Other VC's view: people prefer you being direct, even if you come off like a big jerk. What do founders prefer?

2/If these are founders who are pitching you, then that’s a much harder question. You don’t have the rapport yet and reputational risk is much higher. People you reject seem way more likely to warp story, and less likely to be able to internalize feedback.

Yes, number two is the group I'm thinking about.
