@halcy As a VC, I think he clings to the legitimacy of cults of personality like that surround Elon Musk, because without it they risk losing their own legitimacy.
His blog is a painful read as he really doesn't seem to properly assess the world around him, or at least he has no interest in honest communication about the world.
He has an entry called "Billionaires Build", which is just substanceless capitalist propaganda that only serves to prop up people like him.
