  I would say I am fairly sure its some kind of afinancial crime to uh, short a company you have a material position in…

  But we live in ‘interesting times’, so… who knows!

    I think it’s cute you believe that we live in a world where financial crimes are actually prosecuted.

      I remember Enron being prosecuted, we did at one point at least kind of pretend to give a shit.

      But uh… yeah…

  Wouldn’t that be below somebody like Thiel? I mean, he is a professional and this seems a bit too much “amateurish”…

    He believes that there is a bibilical antichrist alive right now, and he can stop it but also shouldn’t. He’s disconnected from reality so severely, he lives in a completely different world. The fact that he’s rich is not a testament of his professional capabilities, but to the fact that in current capitalist environment, the only prerequisite for being rich is to be lucky and have zero morals

    This comment is a joke, right?

      I don’t say it would MORALLY below him, quiet the contrary, but more from a skill level. Acting so obviously would be just amateurish.

        Please stop thinking of these people as massively brained smart people, instead of just being rich and lucky. These guys are just in it to make the number go up, don’t think they have any floor to how low these fuckers would sing.

        You are assuming he’s doing it himself, instead of on advise if his financial advisors

        It would indeed indicate some kind of corrupt insider trading knowledge
