Yesterday I half read a Dutch (paywalled) article about the German tech enterpeneur Peter Thiel (paypal). Who was boasting about not caring about politics much, but that it was very convenient to have your own man at the top (jd vance). He claims to not believe in democracy or death (that's the title)

I was thinking... dafuq are people like this even doing in politics and who let's them have a say in politics? This is such a clear cut case of moneyoracy instead of democracy, it's almost comedic.

The article, for those who care: https://fd.nl/bedrijfsleven/1531173/techinvesteerder-achter-jd-vance-gelooft-niet-in-democratie-of-de-dood
