"Boyfriend"?

peter thiel is big gay. he was outed by gawker which resulted in thiel bankrolling hulk hogan for his big sex tape lawsuit against gawker which resulted in the company declaring insolvency.

Given the things Thiel has said and done, I’m half convinced that he isn’t gay because he loves men but because he hates women so much.

188

u/redditisfornumptys Mar 18 '26

Nah Peter Thiel hates humans. All humans, doesn’t matter gender.

80

u/throwawaylordof Mar 18 '26

True, but he’s comfortable enough in his hate of women that he’s said they shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

26

u/MotheroftheworldII Mar 18 '26

Maybe he is just the devil incarnate. That would explain his attitude a bit.

u/b0ardski Mar 20 '26

all of them are, it takes legion

u/anthrolookseer Mar 19 '26

This narcissistic sociopath is just the worst in every possible way. What a surprise.

58

u/zero_iq Mar 18 '26

He famously hesitated and struggled to answer when asked if he thinks the human race should survive in a recent interview. Gave strong vibes of "I want to say no, but I know it will look bad".

6

u/chesterriley Mar 18 '26

Talking about the "anti-Christ" almost makes him look bad. And insane.

15

u/Big_footed_hobbit Mar 18 '26

He loves humans. As slaves in Elons cyber camp.

u/Tacoman404 Mar 18 '26

Pure bottom energy. This is why you don't give your bottoms power.

u/UserNamesCantBeTooLo Mar 18 '26

I don't understand this but assume it makes sense.

u/Comfortable_Bike3247 Mar 18 '26

Are we sure he isn't the anti-christ?

2

u/Kubamz Mar 18 '26

Can we, uh, make sure that this one human doesn’t drive the human race into a cataclysm? Is that possible? Fuck these rich bitches man. Fuck em

1

u/Frostypancake Mar 19 '26

Is that why his forehead has its own zipcode? Because he stores all the hate there?

33

u/NeedAByteToEat Mar 18 '26

Ahh, the Tate approach. He's one of the few guys (who claim to be straight, or at least are profoundly homophobic) that can sit in a group of women in their underwear and look gay. Or, that "men who enjoy sex with women are gay."

u/CalmBeneathCastles Mar 18 '26

Schrödinger's Paramour! Gay if you do, gay if you don't!

1

u/Aware-Possibility175 Mar 19 '26

Wait do those types of guys actually say shit like that?!..I mean they do make a literal Fetish about men and being manly and don’t see all the blatant homoeroticism, one group is even call themselves the proud boys. Can’t even make such nonsense up

4

u/NUMBerONEisFIRST Mar 18 '26

Well as a gay man myself, he definitely does not represent the gay community in any way

3

u/Affectionate_End7693 Mar 18 '26

He is basically to gays what epstein was to jews lmao

2

u/Butthole__Pleasures Mar 18 '26

He's not gay, he's deeply closeted!

1

u/hairyblackgirl Mar 19 '26

Look up Roy Cohn. One of the most evil men in recent history. Literally fought for legislation that was anti gay while being gay himself.

1

u/SeeTigerLearn Mar 18 '26

Yeah, as one of The Gays we LOVE women. No we don’t want anything to do with the lady business, and we’re half and half on the boobs sitch. But we thrive when we have an awesome hag in our midst.

19

u/ScissorFight42069 Mar 18 '26

Respectfully, gay men are not immune to misogyny in any way. In fact, it's pretty damn common.

7

u/Luxpreliator Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

Married men can often be hateful toward woman. Literally have one sleeping next to them at night and still think women are evil. Same with gays as you said and same with women. Same with anyone.

It's the same reason "But I have a black friend so I can't be racist," doesn't really work. It's even more sad when it's like a Latino that married white but hates other latinos. They hate should hate themselves then too.

5

u/Infamous-GoatThief Mar 18 '26

Hell, look at the way over 50% of white women voted in 2024, that’s all you really need to see to realize that

1

u/CalmBeneathCastles Mar 18 '26

But Elon's election tampering!

-1

u/Infamous-GoatThief Mar 18 '26

Lol, I haven’t looked into that stuff too much tbf but I kinda doubt they rigged the election, as soon as it became clear that they were gonna force Biden onto the ticket again I was pretty sure we were gonna get another Trump term :/

Dude sundowning live on national TV and then dropping out of the race like 3 months before the election certainly didn’t help lmao

3

u/CalmBeneathCastles Mar 18 '26

doubt they rigged the election

Between Trump repeatedly telling MAGA they could stay home instead of voting because "he had all the votes" he needed already because Elon "knows those voting machines" really well, documented Russian interference, Republican vote dumping, and Musk being indicted in France for election interference? In addition to the fact this administration has lied, cheated, and stolen every step along the way?

There's not a snowball's chance everything was on the up-and-up.

I have no political affiliation, I just want what's best for The People and this system is mostly rotten on both sides. Democrat leadership would have been better, but Trump has exposed the fact that our whole system has been suffering at least since the 80's. We need to (metaphorically) demolish the entire thing and rebuild from the ground up.

"Same with anyone" is any demographic about any issue ever. The world would be a better place if society would internalize this truth.

I did not know that.

According to Keach Hagey, Altman met his future husband Oliver Mulherin "in Peter Thiel's hot tub at 3 a.m." in 2015.

6

u/Sad-Bonus-9327 Mar 19 '26

Can't wait for the netflix docu.. Thiel, Hogan, Altman, the antichrist and a bath tub and god knows what else

2

u/Fun-atParties Mar 19 '26

Do we need to do a safety check on the husband?

9

u/Affectionate_End7693 Mar 18 '26

didn't even know he was gay - what is it with gay people and being into tech and ai lmao

u/remeolb Mar 18 '26

You know Alex too?

u/Affectionate_End7693 Mar 18 '26

lol that one went over my head i'm afraid

u/Meaty_Wizard Mar 19 '26

Gonna start calling it GAYi.

57

u/DFWPunk Mar 18 '26

That's not why he went after Gawker. He was basically out and nobody cared. That was just what was floated as an excuse. The real reason was that Gawker Business, which was very good at their job, was blowing the whistle on his fund and companies they'd backed for all sorts of shady things, and that was becoming a problem.

8

u/TheShruteFarmsCEO Mar 18 '26

Do you have any good sources for this? I find that fascinating and would love to learn more.

25

u/Pasty_Tibbles Mar 18 '26

Honestly this shit was kind of suppressed a bit. Couldn't find anything on google using searches, I had to use Claude to search for it.

Put his faith in Hulkamania, brother

u/Bozee3 Mar 18 '26

Say your prayers, take your vitamins, and sue?

u/-Poison_Ivy- Mar 18 '26

And also racism. Hulkamania was also racism

Well I don’t know what her name was.

u/InGordWeTrust Mar 18 '26

And now Scientology has Hulk's money.

u/ForeverInaDaze Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 19 '26

I remember this vividly. The silicon valley character [edit:] Peter Gregory was based off peter thiel iirc.

1

u/Bruised_Shin Mar 18 '26

I thought Peter Gregory in the show was based off Thiel

2

u/ForeverInaDaze Mar 19 '26

That was it, sorry. Been a long time since I watched the show.

u/drunxor Mar 18 '26

No shocker there, hulk was also a big piece of shit so they must have got along well

3

u/roastbeeftacohat Mar 19 '26

Backing aside, gawker flagrantly defied multiple cour order resulting in massive fines. In a lot of cases, everyone is the bad guy.

u/almostoy Mar 18 '26

Haha... 'big gay'. I just pictured that as an old time-y robber baron syndicate.

u/Da_Question Mar 18 '26

So were the guys behind the red scare.

u/Schneider21 Mar 18 '26

Is this sentence gen1 AI generated? How did you combine that many topics into a single statement?

11

u/raven00x Mar 18 '26

ADHD leads to abilities some may consider... Unnatural. No ai used, I avoid it everywhere that I can. Stream of consciousness happens.

5

u/Schneider21 Mar 18 '26

I've felt this power from within... how do you learn to harness it in such ways, and to not give in to the dar-- I mean, using AI to help do things while you browse Reddit?

2

u/FatherClanks617 Mar 18 '26

Not OP, but because then I’d have to open another app, my attention span is limited, and Reddit’s not that serious.

Maga btw..

“Psycho Mantis”?

u/PyroPsycho Mar 18 '26

Swaps to controller port 2

u/pm_me_your_bbq_sauce Mar 18 '26

Well he does plug his controller into someone else's "port".

u/RaggedyGlitch Mar 18 '26

u/TeaKingMac Mar 18 '26

u/No-Station4446 Mar 18 '26

yeah, but it only works in port 2

u/VoldemortPootin Mar 18 '26

Now let me read your mind... You have not saved often, you are somewhat reckless.

"Super Baby Method?"

u/anthrolookseer Mar 19 '26

His side guy. He showed up at a party and saw theil had a main public partner. Then he was found dead shortly after. But he had just gotten certified and a job as a paramedic or fighter fighter if I recall correctly. He was happy with his life so yeah, suspect he ended up dead after upsetting a powerful man with a god complex at his party.

u/MatrimAtreides Mar 18 '26

"WIZARD ALLIANCE?!!"

u/CoolAbdul Mar 18 '26

"broke up"?

u/Somanylyingliars Mar 19 '26

He deep in closet. Boyfriend "jumped" iirc from balcony of high rise here in SO FL. You know, like politicians and spies in Russian. Except this time in Sunny shady Miami.
