Anti-YC Bullshit Callout Tweet

This is a shitpost and a craven and sad attempt at attention, FYI. We don't have an "admissions team" anymore, we stopped using that term more than a year ago. The amount of anti-YC bullshit that is going on in the community is off the charts. Please stop. just got rejected from yc for using all lowercase in our application Hi Maze,

A screenshot shows Garry Tan criticizing anti-Y Combinator posts, followed by a tweet claiming someone was rejected from YC for using lowercase letters in an application. The joke is the apparent contradiction: the supposedly absurd rejection story fuels the kind of anti-YC sentiment Tan is denouncing. It is shared as a reaction to startup-community drama, hypocrisy, or an obviously self-defeating public statement.
