Are those links editorials? No, they're not. They're straight reporting.

Are you disputing the quotations attributed to Thiel in the reporting? No, you don't seem to be.

You asked for examples of toxic viewpoints held by Thiel, someone delivered, and you plugged your fingers in your ears and said "lol facts don't matter". Don't be that guy.

It would have helped if somebody actually posted examples of toxic viewpoints held (as in present tense)by Thiel. Nothing like that has been produced so far here.
Quotes from the man's mouth aren't good enough?
30 years old misinterpreted quotes? Not really.

Now, he may well be a white supremacist (although I haven't heard any complaints from his Jewish cofounders, FWIW), but these do not prove it at all.
