1. Discussing the economic effects of apartheid seems totally ok. In the 40 year old "quote", he seemed to separate the moral issues of apartheid and he just thought it was economically beneficial. Lots of things can be immoral but make money! It does perhaps show a lack of social intelligence in how he discussed it, but he was presumably ~18-20, this was 40 years ago, and a lack of social intelligence doesn't make someone a bad person. 2. He didn't say rape is made up! Certainly in theory rape can be either too broadly defined or too narrowly defined. Have certain situations moved toward too broad a definition? Thiel thinks so. I have no idea if rape has or hasn't been too broadly defined, but seems a reasonable enough position to be part of the discussion.
