>Dude what if Mordor is a functional social order and society and Gandalf is the evil assholeWhat kind of mental gymnastics do you need to pull off to arrive at that?
>>25412764It is just because he's orc level ugly that he even thinks about shit like that.
>>25412764I mean it’s like screenwriters that change everything for the tv/movie adaptation. They have something they want to say, and it’s easier to attach that something to a popular work.
he should be raped and stabbed
Just be an ultra rich techbro woth no ethics lmao
Shhhh, he's watching this thread.I can sense Thiels presence upon us.
>>25412797he's a homosexual. he'd enjoy it.
>>25412764This guy looks like Sam Harris' brother. Weird how they all look exactly the same.
>>25412764>What kind of mental gymnasticsWell he's gay, so subverting the natural order must come naturally. Being gay he has no real stake in the future either, so burning down the forests to create machinery is literally what he thinks is a good thing. Nobody will need to breathe after he's gone anyway.
>>25413070he procreated via surrogacy or something. fuck knows.
You know the old saying "sin makes you stupid"? I feel like that applies to Thiel. The more evil he's gotten the dumber he's gotten.
>>25412764>What kind of mental gymnastics do you need to pull off to arrive at that?No concept of "good" or "evil"
>>25413063so a cis woman can rape him with a sword attached to a strap-on harness, problem solved
>>25412764i don't think he said that.
>>25413225Nah he did when I was playing Halo 2 with him last week. Dude kept getting fucked by the snipers and ragequit LMAO
>>25413598What a noob lol

>>25412764Reading and interacting with elites will make you realize that they aren't even that intelligent or impressive; not even cool in an evil way, residing in some brutalist skyscraper and laughing devilishly - but instead the same boring middle class midwits elevated beyond their abilities. I would say that people like Thiel are poorly written antagonists, but they are oddly fitting for our times.
>>25413680Gotta find the right elites anon. Gotta find the right elites.
>>25413680Well then, how did they get where they are? This is always the flaw in that line of thinking. If they're so unimpressive, why are they elites and you're not one?It makes me think of that line from the Screwtape Letters: "To be greatly and truly wicked a man needs some virtue."
>>25413814The pool of people that get to start with obscene wealth and roll their dice is already very small. From that set, the ones that get lucky are even smaller. It's like a top athlete or movie star giving advice. Ten thousand different people could give or follow that same advice, but factors outside of their control didn't line up perfectly, so they didn't achieve the same 'success'. The world is full of people like Thiel, and almost none of them will get to where he is, despite making almost identical choices, but when you filter out everyone that doesn't make it, you're left with this minuscule pool of 'elites' that seem better than their peers. It is literally results based analysis.
>>25412764mordor is a functional society and sauron got such massive influence by alliances and politicking, not through conquests thats got nothing to do with gandalf being evil though which is stupid. mordor is starting a war of massive conquest and the people who are meant to be conquered through war are fighting back because while mordor is functional, it sucks
>>25413680This anon nailed it. Thiel is just an autistic nerd that got too carried away and now has money to try to create his fantasies.He's just retarded. What about living the good in a yatch in the mediterrean instead of trying to create Mordor or whatever retarded shit he believes?
Um. He’s seemingly retarded if he thinks that middle earth isn’t advanced outside of Mordor. The Shire has Victorian era level of amenities. Gandalf brought blackpowder to the Shire. The wizards are educators.
>>25414165>>25413680this is because the rich, diversity hires, nepo babies, etc are insulated from their mistakes. doing and saying retarded things dont get them instantly fired/jailed/etc like it would a normal person so the filter of a meritocracy doesnt work on them. normal people live on the razors edge and have to be very cautious and calculating with everything they dosame thing with the "too big to fail" companies>OMG how can such a big company be so stupid!>because being stupid doesnt result in anything negative for them
>>25413656>the orcs were based on reason and sciencethis man is an insane satanist who inverts everything
>>25413680>>25414032>>25414165>>25414195total poorfag cope sorry
>>25413680Are you high? He might not be intelligent, but the guy literally starts sweating when he's asked if he's the antichrist, as unfathomable as it seems to you, they really do believe in all that devil worship shit, triumph of the ego etc
>>25413656>technological...reason and sciencesauron is a sorcerer who spends his time looking in a crystal ball and casting spells at the top of a volcano
>>25412764>What kind of mental gymnastics do you need to pull off to arrive at that?His only belief is in himself. Anything that benefits him is righteous.
>>25413810I coulda been great, but I spend my days jacking off instead. Some say its a nobler existence.
>>25412764You just need to be a coward who gets a little bit of power and then wants more.
>>25414188But do they have smart juicers and refrigerators that spy on them?
>>25414165>What about living the good in a yatch in the mediterrean instead of trying to create Mordor or whatever retarded shit he believes?In zero to one he thinks you shouldn't have more than a week vacation time because that is defeatist and weak. He attacks europoors for that.
>>25413656I mean Gondor and Mordor are really close, so this is plausible.
>>25414219How would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast this morning?
