Peter Thiel helped build big tech. Now he wants to tear it all down.

Our “friend” CJ is all over this; was no doubt a source. Interesting, the stuff they left out!

New reporting shows Thiel has set his sights on transforming American culture — and funding its culture wars — through what his associates refer to as “anti-woke” business ventures. These include a right-wing film festival, a gay dating app for conservatives founded by a former Trump administration ally and a firm, Strive Asset Management, that will “pressure CEOs to steer clear of environmental, social and political” causes, said Vivek Ramaswamy, the firm’s co-founder.

I wonder how big the demand for a “gay dating app for conservatives” will be?
