I don’t even know what to say anymore. Being a trans woman is a source of a lot of my current anxiety with my career (my life) & while I feel supported for the most part… where is that going to lead? I do not know if keeping my head down and trying to do good work is enough in this circumstance.

"Disrupt" is code for "Destroy reliable established services so that money previously widely distributed now funnels into a single source." Just like "AI" is code for "Mine the work humans did in the past so we don't have to pay them for their work in the future." That's why VCs like both words.
