Billionaires get away with murder. Epstein didn't kill himself either.
he's not even dead most likely
Elites fuck children, do gay stuff in secret because they're ashamed, yet they push hard to monitor US and OUR CHILDREN. Why? Because they assume we're like them.
No, they want to watch us so they will know if we’re coming for them.
Thomas Toblerone?
How does Thiel get a pass for being gay WHILE promoting NAZI bullshit? I don't get why the christian nationalist give him a pass but any other LGBT person gets heavily persecuted
The hypocrisy of Nazis is beyond me at this point.
The leader of the German far right party is a lesbian woman living in Switzerland and is married to a woman who is of Sri Lankan ancestry (adopted as a child).
I'm reminded of one of Roy Cohn's monologues in Angels in America.
Your problem is that you are hung up on words, on labels: "gay", "homosexual", "lesbian." You think they tell you who a person sleeps with, but they don't tell you that. Like all labels, they refer to one thing and one thing only: Where does a person so identified fit in the food chain? In the pecking order. Not ideology or sexual taste, but something much simpler: clout. Who owes me favors. Not who I fuck or who fucks me, but who will pick up the phone when I call. To someone who doesn't understand this, homosexual is what I am because I sleep with men, but this is wrong. Homosexuals are not men who sleep with other men. Homosexuals are men who, in 15 years of trying, can't get a pissant anti-discrimination bill through City Council. They are men who know nobody, and who nobody knows.
The real Roy Cohen didn't consider himself gay, he just liked to sexually dominate young blond men. That was a sign of his masculinity.
It should be noted that when he mentored Donald Trump and Roger Stone, they were both young blonde men.
Bastard simply asked boys to drop their pants, then let him ram through, before zipping back and walking away.
Holy fuck that's profound.
Angels in America is a very good play that, I think, has only gotten better over time.
HBO produced it as a TV miniseries with Al Pacino playing Roy Cohn back in 2003. There's also a 2017 revival with Nathan Lane in the role. Either are 100% worth checking out.
Thanks for the recommend, I'm looking forward to watching it. I don't know how I missed this, it was back when I still assumed everything HBO produced was good.

its bad for everyone else but not for him basically. don't try to find logic - its a matter of privilege.
Why would they not? It is tradition that the left wing is split by minor differences in ideology while the right wing are united by hate regardless how contradictory otherwise.
He is a useful idiot and ultra wealthy and ultra powerful and ultra influential and ultra useful on top of being an ultra idiot. They don't have to embrace him, only let him do his thing until he is no longer useful. Fascism must always have enemies and when they are without the external ones they will turn on each other.
I've been wondering the same thing, and came to a conclusion that he's a white christian nationalist above all else. Christian nationalists love a nazi, identity politics only matter when it's not "one of us". Moreover, he doesn't promote gay or trans rights, because he's above all that could technically hinder him if he wasn't megarich. He doesn't care, because it doesn't affect him. He's already won.
Those kinds of rules aren't for the billionaire class

he was defenestrated in florida, after he was voicng his concern about thiels anti-lgbtq+ inititive by helping the gop. the last thiel want his MODEL bf to publically denounce THiel, which hurts his image in helping the gop. this was also immediately buried on most platforms that reported his death.
to a layperson it sounds like his gay conservative lover killed him for speaking out against injustice
I mean... it sounds like he lived under mysterious circumstances too.
Everything Thiel does makes sense when you learn he literally went to a nazi school in a white supremacist town in Africa.
and is obsessed with the ANTI-CHRIST While speaking like the anti-christ. that does explain why MUSK was also a partner in paypal.

Yarvin was married to Jennifer Kollmer, who died in 2021 in San Francisco of a rare hereditary cardiomyopathy and with whom he had two children.
Ivana died in 2022 of blunt impact injuries to the torso after falling down stairs at her home on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Thiel was in a long-term relationship with model Jeff Thomas until Thomas's suicide in March 2023.
Uh..
It’s almost comical. Kind of like the “Russian windows sure are hazardous for your health” thing.
Yet I’m sure there’s an army of online “Thiel Tankies” that have an elaborate explanation for it.

I love Welles music so much
Folk Rock ran with the whole "three chords and the truth" that country music pretends at.
Yeah I'm starting to think that MLK was wrong when he said the arc of the moral universe bends towards justice

You know I wonder if the elections in florida are rigged so none of the creepy billionaires who live there can be investigated/prosecuted. Somebody should run there on reopening suspicious death cases.
There's no statute of limitations on murder.
It's such a tragedy when a young man who happens to be involved with a billionaire who is under investigation commits suicide by shooting himself twice in the back of the head.
actually fell out of the window in florida, sound FAMILIAR.
