I just posted the youtube video of this and it was instantly flagged... why is that? Peter Thiel is arguably one of the most famous Silicon Valley VC's and a partner in ycombinator, isn't him speaking at RNC newsworthy?
Basic censorship. SV liberal-types are triggered by the word "Republican" and thus have filters for it. This response will be auto downvoted or filtered out soon.
If you want your comments to be taken seriously, then maybe you should stop posting like this is /pol/. Go back to your containment board hugbox.
We'll build a wall to keep the liberal types out of silicon valley! And they're going to pay for it!
I didn't flag the original. The problem is, this board is generally (political) flamewar free. And many of us want to keep it that way. To that end, partisan politics has no good place here. Policy discussions, even more to the philosophical "capitalism" vs "socialism" side are better than Republican vs Democrat.
