  • Treaty Principles hearing worthwhile despite inevitable death – Seymour

    David Seymour believes introducing his controversial Treaty Principles Bill is a worthwhile exercise, whether or not it proceeds beyond the select committee stage. Because David Seymour is a racist provocateur(*) who just needs a vehicle to sow dissent. * While provocateur is the right word… it over-sauces Seymour and makes him sound way sexier and…

  • Based on the JRE interview…

    … even Thiel knows he sucks as politics.

  • Thiel goes on the JRE and the JRE subreddit responds…

    … and I thought I hated the guy. I’m way too polite. He. Gets. Dragged. Holy hell the Devil himself. This is a man who gives zero fucks about people. Doesn’t care for democracy. Really believes the ultra rich should rule society to how they see fit. The word fascist is thrown around a lot…

  • “They’re such NPCs” — Why Elon Musk thinks you’re not real

    There’s little doubt Musk is a narcissist and a sociopath, but his ramped up use of NPC makes me suspect he’s a solipsist, too. He’s the protagonist in a world where others are simply programmed responses, not thinking, feeling individuals. This fits neatly with his belief that our universe is a computer simulation. Musk happens to…

  • UAW: Fight for a Better Life.

    Like I said… Thiel is looking really incompetent when it comes to politics. There are four faces featured here: Trump, Musk, Thiel and Epstein. Thiel has now become the visual shorthand for evil – along side Epstein.

  • Why Are the British Race Riots Happening?

    When I was young I said to my father that I didn’t see a lot of racism. He, a child of the Great Depression, replied, “wait till times are bad.” The “other”, the immigrant, is always an easy target. The actual villains are the UK’s ruling class and if violence is the method then the…

  • The Broligarchs Are Trying to Have Their Way

    Eight years ago, the PayPal and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel was an outlier in liberal Silicon Valley for publicly supporting Donald Trump. But now a number of prominent male tech plutocrats who previously opposed the former president have done an about-face: These broligarchs are publicly endorsing and donating to the Republican candidate—and revealing a lot about…

  • Peter Thiel’s Blake Masters loses (again)

    Blake Masters loses again. Thiel really isn’t good at picking winners in this space. Masters last ran (and lost) against Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) for his senate seat; this cycle he was angling for a House seat in Arizona. The other notable Peter-Thiel-protege-turned-politician is, of course, JD Vance, the Republican nominee for vice president. https://www.theverge.com/2024/7/31/24210926/thiel-protege-blake-masters-loses-his-primary-race

  • Roundup: Elon Musk is a terrible person

    I’ve been a critic of Musk since long before it was popular for people in media. It was obvious long before his acquisition of Twitter that Musk was a bad person who mistreated his partners, his workers, and was selling a false persona to the public. But far too few people would call it out…

  • JD Vance’s Politics Are INCREDIBLY Weird. Here’s Why.

    This is a great intro into why these dudes (always dudes) think the way they do. In a New Zealand context, David Seymour shows many of the same characteristics.
