Nothing revolutionary in this article, but I appreciate the common thread it weaves in explaining how we have gotten to such a desperate point and I also appreciate how much the writer despises Peter Thiel. I am so tired of having endless discussions about the sky falling with our attention span and about how the problem these days is social media rots our brains blah blah blah and no one will address the blatant crime that we have ceded control of our digital lives to dumb, fascist wannabe fuedal rightwing edgelord billionaires and that maybe that is the actual problem... |

Someone fact check my history please - Were the fascist movements in Europe during ww2 (and before) orchestrated / started by the elite class? Or did some of them just fund it once they saw it was the tide they couldn’t fight? I thought it was more of a grassroots movement back then. Now it seems to be more manufactured. |

It was fairly similar to today, there was a spark among the masses but a group of elites took that and encouraged it, and then its success in various countries depended in part on how much the reigning conservatives allied with the fascists. |

In a recent interview with Piers Morgan, Thiel was asked why he thought so many people sympathised with Luigi Mangioni, the alleged killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. The question threw him. "Um... it's... uh... I don't know what to say." After almost visibly melting on camera, Thiel eventually said: "I still think you should try to make an argument and I think this is... there may ...

@Soyweiser @techtakes I am currently thinking that time travellers would be better employed if they took ship to South Africa to kill babies Musk and Thiel. |

@Soyweiser Arranging a car crash for Musk and Thiel puts the lives of other innocent road users at risk.I think they deserve a roller coaster ride instead. On this one:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanas |

No I mean we know they crash their car in the 2000s, we know they both survive and nobody else was involved. I just suggest adding a tree to the story to change the outcome. Sorry if this is some sort of obscure thing which I thought was more common knowledge. https://nypost.com/2022/03/26/how-elon-musk-and-peter-thiel-almost-died-in-a-2000-car-crash/ |
