As for my comment on the post itself, as someone living in NZ I'm relieved Thiel chose to go to Argentina instead (for now). Also, it really shows how scared these people are. For all their wealth and power, they are clearly scared lonely little children.
I heavily dislike Thiel but this is not how reporting should look like.
Joe Rogan is quite successful so he has to be intelligent for some things, but for other things...
I've seen him commenting on his podcast more than once of how the administration is conducting itself, with prosecutions, with ICE, etc.
He's not concerned about these actions, instead he's concerned about the precedent it will open when the others come around - probably because he fears that will happen to him too.
I don't know if this was his own idea, or if it was what someone told him, but it does show how this new billionaire class is navigating this event for which many contributed to, and it's quite telling where their morals e ethics stand.
Thiel lacks confidence in the Trump regime and is fleeing from the US.
It’s the latest move for Silicon Valley's most prominent apocalypse enthusiast, who seems to be wandering the earth anxiously in search of refuge.
Alternative take: billionaire who can afford it travels globe via house / land purchases across globe.Can't say I'm fond of PT but I'm sure The Nerd Reich sees everything with a filter of their own world view.
They're just as likely to be getting a house the way others might get a hotel room to visit Argentina for the gaúchos and chimichurri.
