He was a self help guy for the dumbest nerds of silicon valley. His idea was that if you used logic and reason you could make better decisions in your life. Somehow he then told everyone conservative libertarian theory was the most rational and to also give him money to do workshops about it. Would you belive that he created a sex cult for programmers and after that went as you would expect he was an intellectual dark web kinda guy.
