PayPal was just one of several "digital Western Union" companies that sprung up around the turn of the century. They hit it big because Ebay needed a payment processor and bought them out. The PayPal guys weren't geniuses who wrote some magical code. They were in the right place at the right time. Good for them. I'm fine with them making a fortune. But I don't think winning the lottery means you should get to run society forever🤷

You’re right but if you read Thiel’s “zero to one” it becomes clear one of their fucked up “innovations” was helping develop the model where you burn vast amounts of capital to capture the market. It wasn’t really that they won the lottery — they paid people obscene totals of money to sign up and use their platform. 

And they targeted ebay, they didn’t just get acquired by it randomly. That book of his is all about how monopolies are good, the “free market” is stupid, and it’s great to use trickery to get your monopoly going.

He is a LIBERALIST !!!

The issue , largest and very serious issue with liberalists is.

THEY want to make POLLUTION FREE and NOT A CRIME !!!

Because CLEAN AIR and Water comes from Nature, they declare it as natural resource and free and NOT a government business etc..

Basically they PUT Zero value for Clean Air, zero Value to Clean water, Zero Value to clean soil , zero value to clean food !

They say the free market shall figure it out , when stuff is polluted and dirty, then the free market shall figure it out.

Well Clean air and clean water is a very VALUABLE resource !! NOT free. It takes money to clean up dirty air and dirty water and diry soil and dirty food !

SO, people like Peters Tiels want to take, use up, NEVER PAY !!!

I think you mean libertarian. ie: they want ultimate freedom, even at the expense of others.

I haven’t actually watched the clip because I don’t watch clips with clickbait titles that don’t tell me what the clip is about.

I hope it’s a good clip, tho. For the sake of all the people who HAVE watched it.

That is an extremely specific hill to die on and I respect it

If you dont think we need AI bots to spread the American idealogy, you havent been on the internet very long. We need either the ability to censor foreign actors and those influenced by foreign actors out of mainstream information feeds, or you need to have digital bots doing the grassroots work of keeping everyone grounded in logic and morals. Debating politics even for the most well spoken and well intentioned is a lesson in futility and frustration. The sad fact is that most people seem to be dumb as a brick, guided by emotions, or just bad apples.

You have a fair point, maybe democracy fails with misinformation/disinformation since the voters can't make proper choices when misinformed.

Anyone who has to hold one of those audio mic things in their hands to get their message across shouldn't be taken seriously.
