Wonder what people think of:

“We have no ideological agenda,” reads the document shared with WIRED by a past participant. “Dialog is nonpartisan and nonpolitical. We want all participants to come away with a better understanding of the truth—but we don’t presume to know what the truth is. We simply believe that when we bring together open-minded people who are at the top of their fields, with diverse backgrounds and perspectives, they will learn new things.”

I have definitely been to events with people who have a variety of political opinions, but I'm not sure I want to be in any Thiel backed group. I certainly wouldn't pay to attend a social gathering where prominent people that I think are basically evil will be.

top of their fields

lmao as if they are some kind of great thinkers. Motherfucker, you just have an absurd amount of wealth and don't grasp that being born rich isn't the same as having intelligence or qualifications. I don't see any of y'all with Nobel Prizes, shut the fuck up.

The only thing y'all are experts in is ratfucking humanity.

Yeah, I'm not anywhere close to getting in.

Man I can’t wait to learn all about this disgusting evil fuck and his buttmunch club and how they rank each other and what they do and where they - oh wait . . . Hard pass.

Between this and the article on James Dolan, Wired's published a few bangers lately.

It’s based on an ancient internet ritual known as “hot or not”
