I think he specifically speaks against maximum greed here? "create more value than you capture", "have the best product", "Being generous makes you more powerful" etc.

I think its a wolf in sheep's wording - PG is a master of reasonableness to amplfiy greed behind nice sounding words - note he always says “caring about value , caring about market, product etc” but not caring about people their lifestyle or human value or even established ethical companies - everything is a hammer in the nail of disruption
Meanwhile he moves his family to England and Europe to take advantage of small town life, more govt protection less screen time for his kids etc
The VC model is about funding supergrowth potential sustainably for PROFITS not society
Its all about extracting every ounce of profitability in any situation not about caring for employees, customers etc with the expectation that trickle down disruption will benefit society
We’ve had 20 years of this in the us -are we better off?
