Is this for real? What a dick.

Thanks for the link - it's easy to forget that people such as Thiel who display enormous intelligence in one domain can be such morons in another.

I realize that this is a bit of a knee-jerk reaction and if anyone wants to have a rational discussion explaining why Peter Thiel might not be a fuckwad I'm all ears.

EDIT: Okay, I understand why a downvote might be appropriate if that didn't come across as a very level-headed comment. But seriously, if you don't think Thiel is a dick for saying that about the women's vote I'd be pretty curious as to why. My views align pretty closely with libertarianism and I'm certainly all for people honestly expressing themselves but I find it frightening that someone could legitimately believe that the women's right to vote is a bad thing.

EDIT 2: Well, I'm an idiot. I didn't realize the context of Thiel's comments as dsplittgerber pointed out.
