State leaders around the world are recognizing the fate of America is now in the hands of a suspiciously wealthy German whose parents immediately fled to America after WWII ended and never had to account for Nazism (or Apartheid, where they also worked). Here’s former Ambassador Harri Tiido’s take:

…the more important figure behind the scenes is Peter Thiel, who operates more quietly through his company Palantir and a network of allies, building the surveillance and control infrastructure needed for this envisioned new world order. Thiel’s influence stretches from national security to financial systems.

According to several analysts, this new order wouldn’t look like a traditional state, but rather like a corporation. There would be no citizens, only consumers and shareholders. No need for a constitution — corporate rules would suffice. Rights would be replaced by services, purchasable through creating value for the system.

While Musk makes the noise, Thiel acts more politically. At some point, he realized he needed a body to take the necessary steps in politics. He chose JD Vance, whom he knew from the tech business and whose company he had funded. Thiel invested $15 million and turned the unknown Vance into a senator. The next step was to move that creature up the ladder.

He concludes that the “technocracy” (fascism) concept of the 1930s will be the end state brought about by Thiel. Or as a commenter on The Reg just put it:

Well it’s Palantir and Thiel so we get a very large helping of evil with a side order of digital serfdom.
