This is an outrageous position to take. You’re basically acknowledging that Thiel could come to face physical violence due to Gawker’s irresponsible actions but that he could just change his actions and choices to avoid this. That is, it reads like “No his life isn’t in danger if he goes out of his way to avoid the danger”.
- Dylan16807 7y agoGoing to a very small list of countries purely to make more money, when you already have a billion dollars, is not at all a necessary or important life activity. The inability to do so is a very trivial inconvenience.
- manigandham 7y agoRunning a tabloid news story is not a necessary or important life activity either, especially when it actively harms someone else (regardless of their wealth or connections).
- Dylan16807 7y agoYep, entirely accurate. There was no need to run that story, even though the harm done wasn't life-changing.
