He co-founded PayPal. Funded Facebook when it was just a dorm room project. Made billions, then vanished from the spotlight... …but not really. He’s everywhere, just hidden in plain sight. 🕴️ Politics? He doesn’t just donate to campaigns. He plants ideologies. Backed Trump when no one in Silicon Valley would even say his name. Installed his own people in the system — JD Vance, Blake Masters — both straight from the “Thiel Academy.” Believes in a "post-democracy" world. Yes, that’s a real quote. 🧠 Ideas? Wrote Zero to One — the modern startup Bible. Says "competition is for losers" — and he means it. Obsessed with secrets, monopolies, and founders with a messiah complex. Doesn’t just invest in companies. He invests in contrarians, iconoclasts, and future overlords. 🌐 Power Network? Part of the PayPal Mafia: Musk, Reid Hoffman, Palantir, LinkedIn, YouTube — all spun out of Thiel’s original circle. Runs Founders Fund, Palantir, and invests in defense, surveillance, and biotech. Pushing the boundaries on longevity, AI, crypto, defense, and even immortality. This guy is not a capitalist. He’s a technocratic architect playing the long game. While others talk about changing the world, Thiel funds the people who actually will — for better or worse. He's not a celebrity. He's a blueprint for how power actually works. I think that's enough? don't you think 🤔
