PayPal and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel is embarking on an unusual intellectual journey this fall—delivering a sold-out four-part lecture series on the biblical figure of the Antichrist. The private lectures, which will be held at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, represent the latest evolution in Thiel’s increasingly public theological interests that intertwine his Christian faith with his concerns about technology’s potential to enable authoritarian control.
Putting aside the evil of Peter Thiel, which I’m sure everyone else will elaborate on fully, if you’ve ever heard this guy speak, listening to a whole ass lecture by him would be hellish.
Idk what the rules about protests are in SF but IMO it’s really important when/if you protest something like this and go for fire and brimstone style, still try to make it welcoming and fun/block party vibe if possible. Like just have fun with it. I honestly think it would be a blast to have a big ass public party where you cosplay as hellfire and damnation crowd/look the part but you’re just really gathering as a community and airing your grievances about this insane bullshit. Bc at the end of the day, you don’t want to let anyone forget how over the top ridiculous it is for him to even do this.
To be preaching about Christianity while using his tech to commit genocide and tear apart families is the height of just too much bullshit piled on top of too much other bullshit.
so not only do you not give him any sort of victimhood narrative to use by protesting his hypocrisy or any unintentional free publicity, you also end up drawing more of a crowd bc more people would rather be having fun as a lively community than listening to some weird hypocrite tell them about how much fun they can have in an eternal virtual AI afterlife they pay for. (Which yeah I’m guessing making it a more fun alternative probably isn’t going to be too difficult).
Autobiography?
One weird ass German and thankfully he was not doing this shit during the 1930’s.
Some people think homosexuals are the sign of the antichrist. Just saying.
Thiel’s increasingly public theological interests that intertwine his Christian faith with his concerns about technology’s potential to enable authoritarian control.
Classic traitor republican projecting his authoritarian goals onto others. This is comming from thw fucker that founded Palatir.
Now is a great time to plug the Monastic Academy which has a much better religion than Christianity for thinking about AI.
And what religion is that?
It’s still in development. But most of the people involved are Buddhist
Considering he helped the anti-christ become president, this should be in nottheoninion
I’m no biblical scholar, but isn’t this one of the features of the antichrist? Like that they will have false prophets and other dastardly types trying to deceive people and advance the real antichrist’s agenda?
I’m not religious at all, but seeing these mouthbreathing maga fuckwit’s, slavish fealty to that pedo-protecting rapist criminal, has me reconsidering.
If any of those myths had any basis in reality, Thiel would definitely qualify as the Antichrist. As it is, he’s just a common and garden variety asshole.
No technically Exxon and Shell would be considering theyre bringing an actual apocalypse
My neighbor is a common garden variety asshole… this guy is a billionaire pile of shit getting obscenely wealthy on the demise of humans. He’s not the antichrist, but he’s no garden variety asshole.
Jews need to build the third temple first for the antichrist to be summoned. Coincidentally a red heifer was sacrificed earlier this year and The Dome of the Rock is looking mighty destructable.
I went down an antichrist rabbit hole during my work poop earlier and read that the Bible prophesies there being multiple antichrists throughout history, culminating in an ultimate mega-douche of an antichrist who ends up ending the whole world.
An oldie, but a goodie:
Could American Evangelicals Spot the Antichrist? Here Are the Biblical Predictions
Just normal everyday stuff.
Said very calmly as a plague of locusts and frogs descends upon us.
“Why do you ask?” Said as I nonchalantly paint my doorframe in blood to keep the angel of death from crossing my threshold.
My man is dick deep in the ketamine
This is so fucking weird.
People like this shouldn’t be allowed to lead or make decisions that have long lasting effects for millions upon millions of people, or anyone for that matter.
People like him should be locked in psychiatric institutions. They should be studied for their mental disorders, and helped if possible.
Have you seen Curtis Yarvin?
Yea, we could like, have a system where everyone gets to cast a vote for who they want to lead them, and only the people with the most votes gets to make the decisions! Too bad our society is just run by whoever has the most money.
People are seriously paying money to have the devil himself (Peter Thiel of PayPal, Palantir, and Pal of Epstein) teach them about religion.
I don’t like having to do this, but this shit is literally blasphemy. It’s all there in the book y’all have been using like an all powerful shield against modernization. Now this evil tech bro is going to tell you all about the anti-christ, and the path to eternal life through technology?! Come the fuck on:
Matthew 15-20: Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them."
San Francisco you have a very important job to do: I feel like people should go with megaphones and, warn everyone attending that they’re being deceived by a false prophet and going to hell.
Thiel must be hewn down and cast into fire. I like it.
The guy is just another edgelord like musk.
You used to need more social skills to get rich. You had schmooze, negotiate, coordinate, intimidate. Now, any psychopath who can whip a few software developers can make billions.
Nah, theil is a deeper evil. He’s been putting his paypal and facebook billions to spin up the altright pipeline for literal decades.
He quietly funds all sorts of institutes and influencers and silicon valley wonks and founders that gin up most of the nasty shit we interact with now, all to feed his dream of libertarian kingdoms where ownership is governance, where the only right people have is to leave. He is literally a monarchist, and views himself as a king in waiting.
Hes not just a loudmouth idiot like Musk, who splashes money around wildly. Hes more of a Rasputin, the power behind the crown, and hes been very successful at it. Hes someone who coordinates evil, sets it in motion and keeps it building.
There are 4 horses.
3 have already rode (ridden?) in.
(The image is real)
They flew in, on their private jets.
Omg chat, real!?
Ridden is correct. They rode in or they have ridden in.
In support of the antichrist presumably

Gay Peter Thiel is too busy with this shit to read about the night of the long knives.
Yep. You’d think these ding-a-lings would know even just a few things about history?
Same for Stephen Miller - who is Jewish. Guy is practically stroking himself to the idea of treading the same path that Hitler did…duh, they are coming for YOUR dumbass eventually, genius. This bunch always get around to persecuting the Jews…does he really think funding and building a huge infrastructure to hunt down people and throw them in concentration camps will stop with just the brown people?
If Miller doesn’t have a bug-out bag and another country to flee to set up already, he’s even stupider than I thought.
The thing about these nutjobs is not that they believe in biblical myths and legends
It’s that they want to use religious and cult beliefs for their own ends and usher in a violent social change so that they can reshape the future for their own benefit.
They don’t mind encouraging people to believe in an AntiChrist or a biblical apocalypse because that’s what they want … people to go crazy, start a war, kill one another and end civilization as we know it. Then the billionaire class believe that they will be the ones to survive the fallout and gain the world for themselves and live like god-kings in the post apocalypse
every time I see one of them pull this weird shit, I have to walk myself through the process again of how christians got to solidarity with the rich. I don’t know why I keep forgetting that was always the purpose
Anyone interested in this topic, at least how it happened in the United States should check out the Behind the Bastards episodes titled “How the Rich Ate Christianity”
Thanks for spreading the word on this! Ever since I knew of it I keep trying to spread awareness too!
My friend you do not understand how happy I am to talk about this topic at length and spread awareness. Appreciate you too!
Another recommendation for anyone reading this and interested is the book Jesus and John Wayne.
Related to Thiel, check out The Coming Storm, too. I think it’s that podcast that keeps returning to The Sovereign Individual as something that ties a lot of these nuts together.
I am, been waiting for an excuse to finally look at that podcast. that seems like as good of an entry point as any
Feel free to PM me for other good ep recommendations, huge fan of Robert for years and am a glutton for historically depressing stories
Oh it’s a really good introduction episode. Heavy but ridiculous
The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism by Max Weber (1905)
Fairly certain that informed that episode but I do need to read that in its entirety myself
