Odd way to learn altman is gay.
Kinda shocked I've never seen a "worlds richest gay man!" Headline. That feels like low hanging fru-
I worry more about that he is a full blown psycho.
Gay is only bad if the poors do it, of course /s
Honestly I don't think it's any of our business. Even rich assholes are allowed to have a private life. Although with some (Musk, Trump) that private life is so fucked up it's impossible to ignore, but generally I'm totally fine with not knowing who they fuck.
Does Thiel not have more money?
Another one I didn't know is gay.
Props to msm for not making it a big deal
Oh that one's because he goes nuclear when they do. He funded the killing of Gawker because they outed him.
Thiel was outed by Gawker and made it a mission to secretly fund the Hulk Hogan lawsuit which resulted in Gawker going bankrupt: https://www.forbes.com/sites/mattdrange/2016/06/21/peter-thiels-war-on-gawker-a-timeline/
Thiel killed the outlet that outed him.
