this is worth reading if only as further evidence for the thesis that these self-proclaimed philosopher capitalists are total morons who huff paint and call it insight
All I can say about this Peter Thiel op-ed in the Financial Times is that it reads like something he actually wrote. No comms team or AI chatbot is capable of producing this strange paranoid string of sentences www.ft.com/content/a46c...

My double-knit hot water bottle cover is finished and I'm pleased. Farewell to the hideous safety yellow polyester fleece that came with the bottle.
Worked without a pattern in "Compass" from Laine des îles (50/50 Bluefaced Leicester/Polwarth), so smooth and comforting...

I also think the closure of liberal arts schools and the constant attacks on wide-ranging humanist educations are part of a push against the masses being taught critical thinking.
Which sounds conspiratorial, but come on, this is getting real blatant.

Thinking about how many kids I went to the now-closing Simon’s Rock with-a weird school stressing critical thinking, love of knowledge, and liberal arts - *weren’t* rich. Brilliant people with scholarships.
Feels like the end of an era where you didn’t need independent wealth to study like that.

Backward + forward at the same time. With human erasure being the goal.
I think those interested in cultural preservation, archival work— resisting erasure will be *especially* important.
