The thing Sacks is mad about is a potential wealth tax which only impacts those with assets over $1 billion. That will impact very few actual people in Silicon Valley.
FWIW I have some issues with the actual proposal, but the idea that it means Silicon Valley "is for dinner" is nonsense.

Thinking about the time Sacks and his buddies started a run on their own bank and had to be bailed out.

None of them have ever done any such thing. I think what they object to is that other white people have started talking publicly about how whiteness as a concept creates inequality, and they feel the social pressure that truth creates, which they experience exclusively in terms of blame management.
