Thomas Perkins (businessman) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
"In 2014, Perkins wrote a letter to the Wall Street Journal[23] comparing the Occupy movement's "demonization of the rich" to Nazi Germany's anti-semitism.
Writing from the epicenter of progressive thought, San Francisco, I would call attention to the parallels of fascist Nazi Germany to its war on its "one percent," namely its Jews, to the progressive war on the American one percent, namely the "rich."
The letter was criticized by Jordan Weissmann in The Atlantic online.[24]
Kleiner Perkins tweeted their dissent and distanced themselves from Perkins:
Tom Perkins has not been involved in KPCB in years. We were shocked by his views expressed today in the WSJ and do not agree.[25]"
