If you're not a Bible person/didn't grow up reading Revelations etc I really can't stress enough how unbelievably stupid and illiterate Thiel's antichrist interpretations are. I honestly can't think of hyperbole that gets anywhere close to addressing it. They're so, so, so badly considered and dumb.

To be fair, Thiel's interpretations are also dumb if you just grew up reading comic books

Unlimited resources and billionaires still choose to pay people NOT to tell them when they're being stupid pieces of shit.

I can't get the image out of my head of Peter Thiel binge-watching all thousand-odd episodes of One Piece, surrounded by spiral-bound notebooks in which he's taken hundreds of pages of tiny notes, convinced he's come to a religious epiphany, sweating profusely the whole time.

It feels *deeply* like the interpretation of somebody who's filtered the Bible through Left Behind and general LaHaye-style evangelicalism, despite the fact that afaik he's never mentioned them.
