I wonder why they found the libertarian-ness surprising. Thiel's always identified as a libertarian, as far as I know.

Why is it so hard to do research. Why on earth would someone that actually knows even a little bit about Thiel be surprised by this. I expect more of Reason.

I expect more of Reason.

That's on you, I guess

Yep, it is. When I think my expectations can't be lower, I learn they can.

It is disappointing where Reason has fallen to.

Maybe buying and rehabilitating Reason can be part of @siggy47's long-term ~Politics_And_Law plan.

Love that idea!

I just hope it doesn't hire Whitney Webb. Her takes on Thiel always annoy me because it seems like she hasn't read anything about anarcho-capitalist theories on private defence agencies. And this is something Thiel clearly is doing.

Yep, you beat me to it. Though not of the Rothbard stripe.
