Just a scammer nothing else

Of course it's fine to point out hypocrisy, but more importantly, these billionaires (all billionaires) are really fucked up people. Their brains are not OK. They have horrible values. They are happy that people starve and die every day, because that makes them richer. Don't think that copying them will get you anywhere good.

(Of course you still might want to shield your kid from shitty products. But don't do it because Thiel does.)

they also shield them from the public, because they know the children will be doxxed. they dont want the same social media, BRAINROT, likely AI to ROT thier childrens brains too. except musk, who uses his children as a human shield. billionaires are obssesed with preserving thier legacy, especially through thier children.

They're also publicly admitting to wanting to be despots.

Of course the opiate for the masses is not for theirs. They know at this point the Internet is technically an infohazard. They made it that way on purpose.

Good, it will make them want it all the more. I remember when the iPhone first came out and it was the hot ticky item for all the young folk to have. I remember Bill Gates banning his children from using iPhones. There were pictures in the news about a month later with the kids carrying iPhones.
