No, it's bullshit simply because it's prima facie bullshit. "The Valley" (something no one here says out loud) has the same liberal bias it's had for decades.

No, it's bullshit simply because it's prima facie bullshit.
"The Valley" (something no one here says out loud) has the same liberal bias it's had for decades. It has changed in some ways, much the same way our national politics have changed over time. There are ebbs and flows in what's liberal vs conservative, to what degree, on which issues... etc.
But "the Valley" has not suddenly become some unique bastion of intolerance (beyond the general shift in polarization that's been, again, nationwide) or 'groupthink', the newly beloved piece of mud to sling by right-y cultural agitators. It's just a large target for the current wave of culture clash and change.
Thiel is welcome to go chill wherever he feels happy. But no need to be such a baby about it really.
