seeing a lot of lazy dunks on the Thiel NYT interview 


if anyone has seriously engaged with his latest stuff would love to hear some serious and rigorous pushbacks

if you haven’t seriously engaged then pls don’t pile




p.s. the Hoover inst. two parts ones are much better than the NYT one for the same material

friendly neighborhood shitcaster // working on @pinetree

I’m only a few minutes in - but I like Thiel in this interview. Am I dumb?

you probably don’t think about liquidity enough // it is what it is  // build value, not valuation

Not yet - I’ll listen. 

The way they filmed and did it this is amazing - uncut conversation but I see how clipping it makes it sound unhinged. 

This is a GREAT philosophical dive into what the minds of tech are thinking. If you haven’t seen it yet, Generalist is going in on FF propaganda.

No, Thiel is smart and has a lot of good takes

The (failing) NYT intentionally had an unflattering cut, which was compounded by Thiel giving a wtf-worthy answer

Have you listened to the UCK episodes @kia.eth shared?

I think the interviewer is mediocre/subpar bc of the antagonizing attitude  - he doesn’t even press on the more fascinating points Thiel is making

Thiel made great talking points though 

Agree - the grade is malicious; still think it’s good work product 

I’ll check the UCK thing

the interview is bad 
the question is cornering him 
the cut is borderline malicious 

his latest take on apocalypse vs antichrist is actually really thought provoking 
the hoover inst uncommon knowledge pod is much better
