I’ve worked at several startups personally. Some are the way you say, no doubt. Some legitimately are trying to build something to help people. I’ve had corporate sponsored ones, investor backed, self funded, and incubator funded. There’s no “They all run this way”. Which is why I specified “legitimate” startup.

Dude I don’t even know with you. Yeah, some startups start and want to get bought out, not all of them do. Again I’ve worked at a lot, probably 8-10 now. I’ve seen some startups be bought out and others who wanted to do their own thing. Stop generalizing everything, there is nuance in the world, grey, stop seeing everything black and white.
What do you want me to do? Lie about the companies I’ve literally worked for just to agree with you? No, I won’t lie just so you’re binary thoughts about the world feel justified.

this is the definition of a startup. its purpose is getting bought out.
even if they started their life ethically, no company is bought out not to make money.

im literally telling you the definition of what it is.
if some of them turn to doing other shit because they werent bought out, it doesnt change what it is.
