It looks like Thiel is a special boy and since everyone knows him in tech world, diverse opinions are ok, as long as you have connections.
I'm not blaming Thiel here, but it's funny to see the hypocrisy.
The only difference between Thiel and Eich is that the former has a more attractive profit-to-pain ratio, and thus is defended from the mob.
