Regulators Shut Down Lending Platform (YC Alum) LendUp

Myself... I'm actually going to go up-vote you, just so people can for sure absolutely see your bitter ad-hominem attack.

You clearly don't know what "left-wing" means if you think that a bunch of upper middle class highly compensated engineers are that... Actual "left-wing" comments on HN are generally downvoted quite intensely.

EDIT: I just want to add how ... odd... it is to slap a "left wing" accusation about YC-backed companies as we sit here on a thread talking about a YC-backed company that was basically a loan-shark pay-day lender. WTF? That's left-wing? Ok then.

That payday lender was founded with a left-wing banner of disrupting the status quo of lending. YC wouldn’t have funded someone if they were just like, “yeah, we want to start a payday lender.”

Yeah that for sure sounds just like seizing the means of production and workers of the world unite.
