Thiel has argued that the Antichrist could manifest not as an individual but as a world government that seizes power by promising to protect humanity against existential threats such as AI or global warming.

so nothing like Palantir and its weird cabal of freaks at all wonder-who-thats-for

a world government that seizes power by promising to protect humanity against existential threats such as ~~AI or global warming~~ communism or brown people

This dumb guy also said the antichrist could be Greta. He’s wildly speculating based on his own paranoid delusions

I'm honestly surprised some chud hasn't tried to kill her yet because of this idea she's some kind of elite that runs the world and is also the anti Christ

Since everything is projection with these bozos....

a pope spying and subverting the west for a one world government lead by communist china might be enough to make me take communion.

I wouldn't worry about that, the Vatican to this day is still pretending that PRC is not even a country.

it's the perfect cover!

He delivered his remarks at a nonrecorded panel alongside the political scientist Francis Fukuyama.

Thiel and Fukuyama’s discussion, entitled “Humanity at the End of History,” marked a notable departure from the last time the pair debated 14 years ago.

Do it Leo, send the Swiss Guard after him

It's in your power, do it!

DO IT NOW!!!!!

Pope please, kick off the Butlerian Jihad and I'll convert. Trust.

So what happens if we put Thiel in a barrel of salt? He’s the wettest dude. We need to dry him out.

[–] DasRav@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago

Might turn out to be a snail+salt situation. We should definitely try it out.

I get it. He drives a Lincoln.

[–] LeZero@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

I just didn't think he would be Chinese

sicko-wistful

Would that it were so simple.

[–] nothx@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

Hell yeah, I’m Catholic now.

[–] RandallThymes@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I don’t mean this in a body shaming way but what are these rich white guys doing to make their heads change like that. It’s like a new skull is trying to be born from within the existing one.

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Growth hormone. It's part of their hormone stack. It causes bone growth.

won't that fuck up your joints eventually? lemme guess, there's a peptide for that too?

[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think it’s excessive stimulant use.

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It isn't. Bone growth isn't a side effect of cocaine.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

How the hell do people fall for this obvious bullshit though? Like surely someone steps back and thinks, "Oh hey, these things we're being told about China is clearly absurd" ?

[–] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 days ago

the godless communists are working with the catholic church?

[–] ComRed@hexbear.net 7 points 2 days ago

Communists and the Catholic Church, famously strong allies
