thiel, trump, miller, vought, vance, and the entirety of this misadministration may claim to be trying to thwart the Antichrist with their policies and plans. So why do I have this sick feeling that their actions are actually aiding the Antichrist's ascension to power?

JV Veep's position was purchased by Thiel for $90M. JD will never say something that hasn't been approved by his sock puppet master. The cash was the only reason Vance got the nod

Thiel's view is interesting in the US. Project 2025 is clearly the plan that Trump and friends are marching to. Yet, Thiel doesn't seem to notice the dangers lurking there specifically for him; Being gay will be a felony, and they will seize all his assets. Maybe he's a touch too focused on the world picture when his American foundation is quite literally being covered in razor wire

These people make the Taliban seem moderate and rational

So, Thiel has decided the Antichrist walks among us — and apparently she’s a Swedish teenager with a recycling habit. According to Thiel, humanity’s downfall isn’t war or pestilence but “peace and safetyism,” a terrifying new religion practiced mainly by Brussels bureaucrats and people who think AI should have an off switch.

While scholars roll their eyes, it’s hard not to admire Thiel's grift: after all, if you can’t get attention with “AI regulation may hinder innovation,” just add a little Revelation — because nothing sells like the apocalypse, especially when you have a bolt hole in New Zealand and you’re rich enough to survive it.

Devils in his/their details to be sure

Religion has been obsolete for a very long time. What Thiel is doing with it makes no sense. He's got to get into the 21st century.
