Yep. It was his revenge on the owner of gawker and he was quite open about that.

I thought it was pretty funny tbh.

Theil is def. Into some weird stuff. He was also the guy with the company that bought young peoples blood for life extension transfusions for rich people.

And palantir is sketchy AF.

But somehow he is a more conservative libertarian type?

He was funding some other life extension research too.

Also i always found the whole pay pal musk origin story weird as hell. I think theyre working for some intelligence group or something. Like all of those "pay pal mafia" guys are suspect as hell.
