Disclaimer: I am vehemently opposed to Thiel on most of his ideologies.
The most beautiful thing about Peter Thiel is that he knows precisely what he can't say and, yet, isn't afraid to say it. A part of me wants to yell that he's an attention seeker, but if you look at his beliefs none of them are things that will get you a warm welcome with champagne on Oprah/Larry King. In fact, if he had been born in another country he would have probably been stoned to death by now, if not ostracized.
I don't know if he is right or wrong (I lean towards the latter), but I applaud his integrity. He has far more guts than I can ever have.
:bows gracefully:
edit: I just realized that this was an attempt at character assassination. (!) Funnily enough, it just makes me respect him even more despite all the nuttiness.
- byrneseyeview 16y agoI'm not sure he's said anything terrible. Thiel claimed that women and minorities are more liberal, and thus that when they started voting, we got more liberal politicians. That's not controversial at all. In fact, voter registration drives often target minorities because it's an easier way to get Democratic votes.
