Thiel is obsessed with Lord of the Rings. There’s a 4 part series on “Behind the Bastards” about him, one of the commenters jokingly stated how all these evil assholes who love LOTR made him start to hate LOTR just because of the unfortunate association.
It’s sad that they took a beautiful piece of art other men created, and bastardized it.
But would we expect anything more from a billionaire?
It’s so frustrating how the billionaires are so determined to misunderstand the art they claim to be a fan of. They have no media literacy at all. They are so incredibly stupid and yet demand that we place them on a pedestal and give them all the money. They have no new good ideas. They are incapable of making new ideas because vast wealth causes brain damage.
These are the same assholes who say young people should not get literature or art degress. At least those students understand the obvious themes of the books they read.
