If anyone is interested in Thiel's motivations and interests in politics, I recommend Geoff Shullenberger's discussions: Mimesis, Violence, and Facebook: Peter Thiel’s French Connection: Broad discussion of Thiel's writing and actions pre-2016 (when the essay was written), along with his relationship to Strauss and particularly Girard. https://thesocietypages.org/cyborgology/2016/08/13/mimesis-v... Theorycels in Trumpworld: Published recently, and on the role of postmodernist-adjacent figures, including Thiel, in justifying the politics of Trump. https://outsidertheory.com/theorycels-in-trumpworld/ |
