I don’t know but stories about him and the antichrist keep getting posted. A lot of them.

I have said this a few times and it goes somewhat against the grain but Peter Thiel is just another idiot with too much money and not enough people around him pushing back on his dumb ideas. We as the working class shouldn’t be afraid of him, that’s what he wants.

I also did some rough napkin math on his net worth and he’s barely more successful than the S&P 500. His two big breaks were getting lucky with PayPal and Facebook investments. The rest of his net worth is pretty much just as good as dumping those two companies’ proceeds into the stock market and sitting there.

People get scared of his companies but I bet their products kinda suck.

>And the ultra-libertarians around it.

Here's a little perspective which might dispel you of that notion. If anything, the people you describe are willing to compromise any alleged libertarian principles they may hold for a seat at the table. It would arguably make them lesser-libertarians. They are commonly described as "Beltway Libertarians"

The distinction has been around for awhile now. As a rule, someone accepting state contracts probably isn't "ultra-libertarian". This probably won't make you more amenable to the cause of liberty, but the distinction is worth making. A little accuracy in your pejoratives goes a long way.

It's sort of funny. His historical Antichrist stories covered here are basically about technocrats becoming the Antichrist. His contemporary take is that it's obviously not the technocrats, it'll be Greta Thunberg or someone like her. Someone who opposes technological development (to any degree) will be the Antichrist. So we must develop technology unfettered because the old stories of the Antichrist are irrelevant now for some reason.

> but he’s just so uncharismatic that he’ll never get anyone onboard whatever vision he has

I miss the times where vision was determined by substance, not charisma or other irrelevant to final result traits.

Its probably the reason why we have so many charismatic people pushing the world to the edge by stupid agendas. People just buy it.

While I am not a Thiel fan, calling someone a fascist is a pretty bold accusation. Hope you can substantiate your stance.
