Great. He should get the fuck out then if he doesn't feel welcome. While some people might tolerate the kind of scum like Thiel, I think it's good that SV doesn't tolerate. There's plenty of other places Thiel and people who feel like him can move to. The area will be better off with people like him gone, IMO. Most open minded liberal people with half a brain aren't going to move to bumblefuck, usa for the same reason Thiel and others like him shouldn't move to liberal cities. There's a place for everyone in our divided society and are the very least, people like Thiel can afford to move, unlike so many others that would like to but can't.

Your vision for the future of America sounds incredible, how can I sign up? Seriously, I had never thought about it before but just dividing everybody up into high-school cliques that openly loathe each other, with no pretense of a common societal fabric... you should give speeches. This is a message people need to hear.

Can I find any more of your writing on this topic? I, and I'm sure many others, want to hear more.

Apologies. I guess the nature of these threads is that everybody jumps in thinking that they're above all the bickering, then promptly and utterly fail to rise above it. Reminds me of those emails that accidentally bcc the entire company, only to have thousands of idiots reply-all with "please remove me from this list", followed by even more idiots reply-all'ing "DON'T REPLY ALL".

Anyway, mea culpa. Thanks for moderating.
