Given Thiel's long history of crazy an immoral utterances and behavior, why pick out his support of Trump as the "line in the sand"? It's practically normal compared to his other activities, and protected by law to boot. Compared to: * Suing a news publication (Gawker) out of business for criticizing him
* Funding research into vampirism (stealing young people's blood so he can live longer)
* Paying to design an actual John Gault Island
* Funding an initiative to split California into 6 states
* Saying that women shouldn't be allowed to vote There are tons of reasons why YC should disassociate form Thiel, but his donation to the Trump campaign has got to be the least of them. |
