TLDR version; "one long-running tech pyramid scam is about to be unexpectedly run over by another, even longer-running, tech pyramid scam." With any luck they'll collide with the LLM bubble and turn it into a three-car pileup and fuel tank conflagration: oh dear, how sad, never mind.

It took us so long to have the right to love who we love in public, and we’ve embraced this change so beautifully that some of the younger kids now don’t understand how recent it is. It all feels so fragile now. My heart breaks for Jonathan and Tristan.
