The article getting flagged should answer all one needs to know.
It's extremely concerning that the 'courage we've lost' refers to former Stanford students not being reprimanded for saying outwardly offensive things, but for someone who writes about cowards, it's a shame that he would rather write reactionary points about an arguably very courageous startup acceleration program than construct strong arguments. Part of the 3.7% of those accepted into Stanford, as he refers to, are sure, manicured, but many also simply just have their parents pay their way to get barely or unqualified students in. For context, Bassel is of the latter. Once he achieves something, anything, on his own merits, I will reconsider the material of the article.
