⚡️This email is one of the most quietly revealing artifacts of the entire post-2008 era.

Peter Thiel isn’t predicting socialism here. He’s diagnosing the terminal logic of late capitalism: when ownership becomes inaccessible, belief in the system dissolves.

He’s mapping structural inevitability.

The key insight is in that last line:

“If one has no stake in the capitalist system, then one may well turn against it.”

Every economic order survives only as long as its participants believe they have a stake in its rewards. When that belief breaks, when capital accumulation is delayed beyond a generation, the feedback loop collapses.

In plain terms:
•Boomers owned.
•Gen X still managed to buy in.
•Millennials rent the world their parents own, and Gen Z is now locked out entirely.

The result isn’t ideological socialism. It’s resentful capitalism - a system where people still chase wealth but no longer trust the architecture that allocates it. That’s the precursor to all great systemic transitions - Rome, Weimar, post-Soviet Russia, even 18th-century France.

Thiel’s email is almost tragic in tone because he’s speaking to the very class - Zuckerberg, Andreessen, Sandberg - who became the gatekeepers of the new digital feudalism. They turned “ownership” into platform access, and “opportunity” into subscription. The economy was financialized, then digitized, then moralized - and in each step, capital got lighter, faster, and further removed from the people whose lives depend on it.

What he’s really saying is this:

Capitalism doesn’t fail when the rich get richer.

It fails when the poor stop believing they can join them.

That’s the pivot we’re living through right now. The “Millennial socialism” he mentions is the immune response of a generation whose time horizon was stolen.

The irony is that Thiel, the ultimate capitalist contrarian, saw it first.

And he was right.

The generation that couldn’t buy the system will end up rewriting it.

Covid-19 vaccines, credited with saving millions of lives during the pandemic, set off a powerful alarm that rallies the human immune system against cancer and nearly doubles the median survival length of patients, according to a new retrospective study. https://t.co/r3wjVEZ0x2

This is probably the best video to prove they're not trained in any capacity for law enforcement & are just living out their racist fantasies.

One of the most well-known esports photographers @Yicun_liu shares a heartfelt story about photographing Boaster behind the scenes:

“From a photojournalism perspective, every moment, whether a win or a loss, has a reason to be documented. Documenting the lows makes the climb back to the top even more meaningful.

But often, when photographing the players who’ve just lost, standing in front of them with a camera feels ‘cruel’. After all, the biggest stages often bring the greatest pain. Though the rational part of me says: Don’t hesitate. Press the shutter. This is your job.

Yesterday, Boaster broke down in tears in front of me, and pressing the shutter at that moment was really difficult.

At Masters Shanghai 2024, after FNATIC’s loss, Boaster cried backstage, his back facing me, full of sadness. I couldn’t bring myself to go near him.

Later that same year in Berlin, Boaster and Yinsu heard I was doing Worlds and invited me to dinner. During the meal, Boaster asked,

‘Did you take any photos of me crying?’

I said, ‘Sorry, you were too heartbroken that time. I couldn’t bring myself to take the shot.’

He replied, ‘It’s okay. Next time if I cry, just take the photo. I think moments like that make for beautiful memories in my career. Photos like that can be beautiful too.’

Thank you, Jake, for giving me the courage.

Paris, 2025.”

may konsensya ba?

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 🇵🇸 @Pclus12]

Yeah, we're gonna need another protest just for the pigs.

[karl 🇵🇸 #MarcosMamamatayTao @eicvsfascism]

Bawal mag-rally nang walang permit. Bawal mag-riot. Bawal magtinda sa Quiapo. Bawal ang maging "iskwater." Bawal lumabas ang mga minor kapag 10 PM na. Bawal ang lahat maliban sa pagnanakaw ng bilyon-bilyon ng mga opisyal ng gobyerno mula sa pera ng mamamayan.

Now that the youth are enraged, it's time for the workers movt to step up and set up crippling strikes and work stoppages. The working class should take the lead. The people's rage must continue.

[# @defnothue]

Yes, and apparently this was him on the day he got arrested. He just raised his hand and got taken by the police.

if the evidence of PNP deploying tear gas against the protesters isn't enough, here's another footage that shows multiple teargas cannisters that got to the LRT railway, posing risks to public safety & causing the suspension of train operations—inconveniencing 1000's of commuters
