Not sure what the parent meant by it, but he presents in public as a democracy skeptic and authoritarian technocrat (with the exact same “and by technocrat I mostly mean rich and sharing my opinions, of course” thing that nearly all such people end up at). He’s pretty up-front about it. Exactly the kind of person I’d like to see with no access to levers of power or anything else important. He appears to follow the same pattern as lots of other rich captain-of-industry authoritarians we’ve seen… well, since the advent of modern democracy, really, to a T. The background on it’s kinda a boring read, because it’s so familiar. Wikipedia’s got the gist and links to the details, but I’m sure someone out there’s got a site that catalogs the whole thing.
