If what Assange and team are going through is any indication, the US Government has set a dangerous precedent in how it deals with people who go against the establishment, exposing it. They spin a narrative saying he broke certain laws, whi

Like you, I don't agree with Pieter Thiel on a lot of issues including his support for Trump. But when you work with him as an entrepreneur, how do his political beliefs, his position on science vs industry matter? If his positions on
