Thiel claims that today's Antichrist is anyone who expresses alarm about climate change, stokes fears of nuclear war or seeks to regulate the use of screens and social media platforms, all in order to promote the emergence of a "world government" – something libertarians, who are hostile to all forms of state regulation, dread above all.

Raised in apartheid-era South Africa, the venture capitalist seems to have clung to the idea that certain categories of people are meant to rule over others. He is an elitist who advocates for an oligarchic system, one in which governance is ensured by a select few, preferably wealthy male entrepreneurs, and who exalts progress, technology and the supremacy of the individual. Monarchy is the best form of government, he argues in his essay Zero to One.

Why didn't I think about that, world government is only bad unless Thiel is in charge

If I were a billionaire I would buy an old ass ship (forgive me IDK much about naval history) like an ironclad, retrofit it with a nuclear reactor and then full horsepower it through a yacht yard

I just finished my associates in something called "industrial maintenance." A degree that is a little bit of electrical, HVAC, Circuits, & machining. I have not been accepted to the 20 "entry" level jobs I found (also went to a career fair). And everywhere I look for related fields or anything people say there's too many people in the business. It's like every job field has "too many people"

They wouldn't say Biden or Obama is part of God's plan unless they were honest with themselves

I thought Amazon but with actual workers rights would be really good. No need for wasteful markets like malls and the labor and the boredom from working at places like that. Having drones and packages from a nationalized warehouse to distribute goods
