Mmm that's sum good blood boy
The US justice sucks shit.
No more than Chinese fairies or Swedish hoppy vampires.
But those things don’t ex…. Oh I get it.
What, billionaires aren't allowed to do what they want?
Yarvin was married to Jennifer Kollmer, who died in 2021 in San Francisco of a rare hereditary cardiomyopathy and with whom he had two children.
Ivana died in 2022 of blunt impact injuries to the torso after falling down stairs at her home on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
Thiel was in a long-term relationship with model Jeff Thomas until Thomas's suicide in March 2023.
Uh..
It’s almost comical. Kind of like the “Russian windows sure are hazardous for your health” thing.
Yet I’m sure there’s an army of online “Thiel Tankies” that have an elaborate explanation for it.
I don't know what a "blood boy" is and I don't want to know.
I am going to bed now
It's not as bad as you think. Its just the young man a rich older man pays to live a cloistered life and occasionally give blood to the older man in the belief that it will slow or reverse aging.
They don't bathe in it or anything.
"Listen, here's the thing. If you can't spot the blood boy in the first half hour at the table, then you ARE the blood boy."
No, I'm over 25 and have breasts.
I hear you, but the best way to learn about this is by watching Silicone Valley. While depressing facts like the existence of blood boys are revealed, the show is net worth it.
PayPal Thiel Moved to USA at age 1, so is forever called German-American. Ha!
Oh wait the cunt is also a NZ citizen, so shouldn't he be called German-Kiwi-American?
Argentine now.
He has a Kiwi passport?!? How
Most of them do. Its majority white, climate resilient, and an island where they can have outsized influence with relatively few mercenaries.
Wait until you hear about this one little trick!
Money
pretty sure he bought himself at least 4 passports
Most techbro billionaires are convinced the world is ending and they think that NZ is the best place to build their doomsday bunkers if it does. So a lot of them have effectively bribed the government for passports.
after the apocalypse I hope the maori eat the rich there too.
Broast then in their own bunkers for added flavor!
Total coincidence their government pulled hard right in the last decade.
He straight up bought it, never lived there or anything.
Everything Thiel does makes sense when you learn he literally went to a nazi school in a white supremacist town in Africa.
He what
Read up about the Paypal Mafia and all of its lovely racist, white-supremicist, nazi-loving roots.
But he’s such a great guy. He’s even trying to warn us that Greta Thunberg is the Antichrist. 
What is a blood boy? Like from mad max?
Yes. Thiel was getting "young blood" infusions from this guy. No reason to suspect hasn't continued with a new donor. Literal vampire shit.
Was Gavin Belson based on him?
EDIT: Anyone who didn’t watch Silicon Valley, there is an episode where the character gets blood infusions from a younger, very athletically fit man.
As I recall, they blended a few of the silly valley moguls into that character. Zuckerberg and Jobs also made some appearances in that character.
Which one is responsible for the penis shaped signature?
Have you seen SalesForce Tower in downtown SF?
I guess it’s better than Jeff Bezo’s cock rocket. I guess the short answer to your question is “all of them” lol.
No, but looking up an image, I see some resemblance to a phallic shape.
Yes, exactly like that, with just a touch of Nazi vampirism thrown in. Thiel thinks he can harness the virility of healthy young men by routinely getting blood transfusions from them. Seriously.
It’s actually even more crazy, he’s deeply and upsettingly afraid of dying, I would without irony compare him to the villains of Fullmetal Alchemist
I wish I could un-read this :(
To be fair, if I had a sudden moment of clarity where I realised that I was being used by one of the world's most evil people, I might off myself
You say that, but if you were in their bed? And able to remove one of the world's most evil people from the mortal coil with great ease?
I dunno, man, if you're gonna go, do the rest of us a favor on the way out.
If you're in their bed chances are that you aren't that great either.
Abusers in positions of power use this as a means of protecting themselves. By making their victims engage in acts of abuse against others they force them into a catch-22 if they try to expose them. They achieve ultimate victory over the victim by making them adopt the ideology of their abuser, trapping them in a hierarchy within which they will do anything to maintain their position. By drawing you into their system of abuse they not only make you afraid to expose them, but rob you of your desire to do so.
The billionaire that realized you are trying to air their secrets would beat you to the punch. This was no suicide anymore than the two boeing whistleblowers were suicides.
Soooo creeeepyyy
Handsome dude, he could've done a lot better than thiel, and wouldn't be murdered for his lover's paranoia.
