BEHIND THE BASTARDS - How Peter Thiel Became the Gravedigger of Democracy
Thiel has 2 real fears and he’s been pretty consistently worrying about them.
- His own mortality terrifies him
- He’s convinced that an apocalyptic end to the USA as we know it is coming any day now.
A proletariat uprising would be apocalyptic in his view AND he would undoubtedly get the Mao special if one happened.
There’s 0 chance of one because Americans are way too divided but this killing is the biggest source of existential dread for him and he’s probably been waking up with nightmares about it.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy
His mortality terrifies him because it shouts in his face that he is ultimately no better or different than the poor. The great equalizer comes for us all, and most of us will be forgotten within just a handful of generations as though we never existed at all. That’s easier to reconcile with when you already know that you’re not special. Peter spent quite a long time believing otherwise. With every passing year, his desperation grows. A decent guy would use his absurd resources to improve life for all, cementing a positive legacy, feeling more fulfilled; he’s a quantity over quality kind of guy though. Fewer, happier years are not as attractive to him as maximum, if miserable, lifetime.
2. He’s convinced that an apocalyptic end to the USA as we know it is coming any day now.
Seems like he’s contributing to the cause of the apocalypse he is afraid of.
My theory on why he’s doing that is since he sees it as inevitable he’d rather have it happen on his terms/under his control.
He looks like one of his guys killed John Wick’s dog and he just realised what that means.
He looks like if John Cena didn’t go to the gym
Maybe he realized we’d all care just as much if he got Luigied.
VD Vance is this psycho’s puppet
