Do you think they should be doing something? If so, why? Why should political minorities get an uneven boost to their applications?

Side note: most people who apply to YC are probably not very public with their politics. Political minorities could do the same and not worry about repercussions for their beliefs.

Former partners such as Sam Altman and Peter Thiel have been fairly politically outspoken. Fairly uncommon in business before a decade ago in the US.
