#PeterThiel probably isn't a popular topic of conversation on the #fediverse, not even in #foss circles, but I wouldn't be surprised if Thiel hasn't got of quiet supporters here on ActivityPub social

#PeterThiel is an #entrepreneur. That's all that I care to know about him for the moment. Chara knows a bit more about this fellow and all the information is grotesque of course, but I wanted to watch a clip of Peter Thiel to satisfy myself on one point only: did this guy sound smart when he talked, I wanted to know? And he doesn't. He sounds much like #ElonMusk in fact: he sounds hesitant and uncertain in a peculiar stammery way that's clearly not about having an actual speech impediment. (cont'd)

Well, @arstechnica@mastodon.social et cetera, "everyone" doesn't get to fart around with #investments and such. It is my general contention that "investment" and all such activities can't possibly be beneficial ways of making money—how is it GOOD in any way for some interloper to demand a cut of a firm's profits simply because they fronted a bit of money? That's gangster shit, but guess what? The #entrepreneur culture likes to think of itself as daring and piratical. You know, like Jordan Belfort. Right, Mr. Anil Dash? You are an #entrepreneur, so you say. Surely you have some ideas about the general culture of #entrepreneurship. (cont'd)
