Gay jew obsessed with transhumanism strikes me as high on the “what are the odds this guys a lizard person”-scale, which isn’t even taking account of how he’s wormed his way into the halls of power in a manner which would make Roy Cohn or Henry Kissinger cream their pants.

What have you seen from him which leads you to extend so much benefit of the doubt that you’d trust him over Webb, who imo has displayed a legitimate moral fortitude and ethical backbone which for all intents and purposes doesn’t exist amongst public intellectuals/journalists, and hasn’t in decades, and especially that I’ve never seen coming from theil or anyone associated with him.
