Peter Thiel thinks he has the right to make the world better for himself...and ONLY himself.

Fuck the rest of us.

The only difference between Peter Thiel and a homeless person raving about the end of the world is that Thiel can afford to rent a hall while the homeless guy makes do with a subway platform.

Thiel’s talks, which began on 15 September and ended on Monday, were long and sweeping, mingling biblical passages, recent history and philosophy and sometimes deviating into conspiracy theories. He peppered them with references to video games and TV shows along with musings on JRR Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. He likewise recalled conversations with Elon Musk and Benjamin Netanyahu and spoke at length about how he thinks Bill Gates is “a very, very awful person”.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

This is probably the end of freedom of speech and expression in the US.

Burning a flag is inciting a riot. Insulting Trump or a Republican is inciting a riot. Ditto blasphemy or being trans in public. Every action becomes a federal felony if the DOJ doesn't like it.

The First Amendment explicitly guarantees:

-the right of the people peaceably to assemble
-to petition the Government for a redress of grievances
-the free exercise of religion
-freedom of speech

If this priest had also been press, ICE would have violated all five 1A freedoms at once.

If "We took the freedom of speech away" isn't in 1000 attack ads in the next 13 months, it's political malpractice.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

The press is complicit to their own demise. They will fight each other for a headline tomorrow instead of working together to save the future of their profession.

Schiff: "You begin to wonder -- do they believe they have the authority by putting some groups on a list, even domestic groups, to use lethal force against them, with no trial, no due process, no nothing? The reality is we can't rule that out."

The fact that #freedomofspeech isn’t trending on Bluesky is scary. The “out of context” line is as stale as an old cracker.
