The entire Bay Area is built around Gordon Gekko types. VC is Gordon Gekko. "Disruption" is the Schumpeterian hypercapitalist "creative destruction" that underlies Gekko's "greed is good" maxim.

In the Bay it’s about “Making the World a Better Place”, which is the all-important fig leaf to cover up the uncouth sin of hypercapitalist greed.
