- rodgerd 12y agoWhich wouldn't be so bad, but Thiel, Andressen, et al, seem determined to foist their flavour of "smart stupid" on everyone else.
- eli_gottlieb 12y agoAdmittedly, I can kinda-sorta understand becoming a libertarian if you grew up in Northern California: its local/municipal/regional governments are a special kind of stupid that you only get when combining lower-class reaction with landowner chauvinism with new money elitism.

- lectrick 12y agoThe more I read words by people who have read about Thiel, the more I wonder how armchair critics without much achievement on their resume can expend so much hater energy. Since when was success only deserved by those who could do, or think, no wrong?
