But don't link that shit directly, there's plenty critical articles about this, on better platforms.

Honestly, I'm more offended that they photoshopped him to look like a normal person. Thiel looks like someone who got a skull replacement.

No wonder. Axel Springer is an utterly malicious corporation.

It’s only fitting that they take a liking to Thiel, who is, after all, also an unscrupulous monster.

Edit: Removed a statement about Springer Verlag; thanks to schnurrito for pointing out that this company is not affiliated with Axel Springer.

Also Peter Thiel:

With this, Axel Springer pays tribute to a person who has created new markets, reshaped existing ones in an extraordinary way, and left a lasting mark on the technological, economic, and societal debates of our time

I mean yeah, technically that’s true. But not like, in a way to be celebrated. “And now we give our award to Timmy Schmidt for upending the real estate market. Timmy is well known for burning down so many houses.”

The idea came from the same guy who recommonded Elon buying Twitter.

Who?
