@MattZeitlin I guess I would say Thiel’s pecuniary motives tend to e overrated in the discourse and that in general I think libertarians’ commitment to anti-democracy is an under-appreciated facet of contemporary western politics. — PolitiTweet.org

@MattZeitlin I tend to think that’s unfair and his belief that it’s important to eradicate democracy in favor of an authoritarian political system reflects his sincere beliefs about the moral good rather than narrow self-interest. — PolitiTweet.org

@MattZeitlin @jbarro I’m making a descriptive claim about Peter Thiel, who has written "I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.” Plenty of room for disagreement about how to organize democracy, but Thiel’s increasingly influential view is that democracy is bad. — PolitiTweet.org
