This is likely more an invite list than a membership list. Not defending it. But it's more like being a high profile, influential or powerful person and being invited to an exclusive conference than it is being a member of SPECTRE.

[rayiner]

What meaningful complaint can you have about a meeting that includes Ted Cruz on one side and Wes Moore on the other; both Peter Thiel and Reid Hoffman?

[Terr_]

If you mean in terms of political party leaning, we've had many years to observe how Rich vs Poor can override Right vs Left.

[XorNot]

It does? Because from recent US election results the exact opposite would seem to be true.

[rayiner]

Are Corey Booker, Wes Moore, and Jared Polis rich?

[ares623]

I make $500k/year TC, that means I'm rich right? Right?

[evan_]

$500k is a heck of a lot closer to $0 than it is to $1B

[FireBeyond]

Which shows the great divide plainly. $450K individual TC puts you in the 1% as of 2025.

[HWR_14]

I'm trying to understand if you think that you are rich or not. Every time I read it I flip if you are serious or sarcastic.

[krapp]

I want to know what the hell Joseph Gordon-Levitt is planning...

[thephyber]

He has been politically active trying to roll back CDA Section 230 protections for social media companies because he conflates social media algorithms being “editorial” with what actions are actually protected by CDA 230.

He made an pinned Instagram post about his association with this group (link to his account, not to the post):

[derektank]

He’s involved in the effective altruism movement and Hollywood AI policy

Most shockingly, Kaja Kallas, EU Foreign Representative.
