Don't understand why this was flagged. HN had no problems piling on Thiel when he announced his support for Trump, and we're not allowed to post something where the man is defending his viewpoint. This smacks of intellectual dishonesty and flagging this post just goes to further show that Thiel is right regarding diversity in SV. All of this is relevant discussion because of his affiliation with HN and tech as a whole.

> This smacks of intellectual dishonesty Not surprising given the nature of both HN and the valley. It's weird watching this site justify ostracizing/harassing people with different politics than them. Conformity of thought is highly valued within the tech community in the bay.
