Peter theil is the type of guy who says that when people dance they shouldn't bend their knees because its satanic.

"If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality."
Stephen Hawking, 2015 Reddit AMA
"The best weapon of a dictatorship is secrecy, but the best weapon of a democracy should be the weapon of openness."

"I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals.

Between Thiel and Cesar Chavez lies the entire spectrum of humanity

Theil is %100 spook made, his path and various business success have all been pre determined. What I want to know is who was guiding and pulling the strings, would be very interesting!

This guy recently received the Frank Schirrmacher Price here in Germany, by the newspaper F.A.Z. (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung), Schirrmacher was their publisher before his untimely death. A liberal conservative newspaper by our standards, probably comparable to the New York Times et al. They had a lengthy interview with him mostly gushing over his entrepreneurial skills and only barely touching his connections to Trump and other far right cronies. That guy is a religious nut. At the end of the interview he talked about the superiority of the christian belief. Fits perfectly into their kind of culture war.

That concluding point you made is spot on. Theil just sounds like Peterson for a slightly different audience.

I knew Peter Thiel was bad, but I had no idea he was *this* bad.

The problem is not Western culture. The problem is Western imperialism. Imperialism is structural, not cultural.

These folks will dance and dance dance as hard as they can just to never do their share of anything

Thiel misses the "Western culture" of his apartheid South Africa and South West Africa

Clicked on this and the YT algorithm was trying to send me next to a video of Thiel chatting with Bill Kristol. Yuck.

I am confused. Ceasar Chavez had numerous victories in support of farm workers and table grapes. This led to better pay, housing and worker safety in regard to pesticides. Shouldn't table grapes be seen as a success for organized labor; and not a symbol of oppression at Stanford.

Peter Thiel is a name I’ve heard people say so many times but have no idea who he is or what he’s known for. How is this guy famous and why are we talking about him?
