This isn't a me vs them. Who is hoovering up the ice cream futures? Different business model, different businesses. Both are difficult. Being a founder of a VC based company is difficult and being a builder of a retail brick and mortar is difficult. It isn't zero sum and both can exist in the same economy trying to make this a Me Vs Them narrative is totally BS.

Making a wedge where there isn't one is disingenuous.
