Interview: "What we have is government by Peter Thiel & it's a regime in waiting. The good news is it's very unpopular. People hate this stuff."
"16 of Peter Thiel's closely connected deputies [are] in high levels of the Trump administration now - leaving their perches in Silicon Valley to go into the government".

RE: https://www.xenofact.com/2026/10/18/the-inevitable-cult-of-wealth/
"So yes, some of the uber-wealthy act like they’re in cults – they are. They exist in self-created echo chambers. Bad ideas don’t get flushed out. They talk to other people like them. And that’s not counting important questions like “is the economy structured so utter assholes easily take control.”
Honestly, once you add the asshole factor it gets worse. I’m being kind.
So maybe in our current state we need to consider the rich and powerful to be in some kind of cult by default until proven otherwise. And it’s another reminder of why consolidation of power of any kind is a problem – because culty behavior follows almost inevitably, even with the most charitable viewpoint."
