&gt; ... it’s pretty much anybody who isn’t white, male, young, and privileged...<p>I don&#x27;t know what startups these guys are talking about, but they sure don&#x27;t sound like the U.S. startups I have experience with. Disproportionately male? Sure. Privileged? If by &quot;privileged&quot; you mean from at least an ordinary middle class background? Sure again. But white? Only if you count our large (very large?) contingent of south asian and east asian teammates.
