“I’m delighted to announce #PeterThiel is joining #YC as one of the (now 10!) part-time partners.

In addition to founding #PayPal and #Palantir and being the first investor in #Facebook, Peter has been involved with many of the most important #technology companies of the last 15 years, both personally and through #FoundersFund, and the founders of those companies will generally tell you he has been their best source of #strategic #advice.” — Sam Altman, 2015.

Compare the sign on blog post (Altman) to the tweet (pg as shown).

When you take capital from #Thiel, then only realise a decade later it wasn’t a good idea. At the time when this was announced I thought, “Oh shit #PG, don’t do it”. Then history.

It’s the lure of capital. You get covered in the deeds of these shitty founders (Thiel) and you have to back track, knowing it was blood money.

#Arizona's Universities are Instruments of War

The United States provides more than 70% of the funds and weapons used for #WarCrimes and #genocide in #Palestine. Arizona universities are a backbone of the war industry.

by Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Oct. 31, 2024

TUCSON, Arizona -- "When Arizona's largest universities slammed down on Palestine supporters, it was obvious they were hiding something. What they were hiding was the fact that they are thriving on war dollars.

"The most obvious is Raytheon Missiles located at the #UniversityOfArizona's Tech Park in Tucson. The less obvious are the millions in grants and contracts that both the University of Arizona and #ArizonaStateUniversity receive for technology, including cyber technology, artificial intelligence and robotics.

"While slamming down on #Palestinian support -- and shooting them with #RubberBullets in #Tucson and denying some graduation at #ASU in the #PhoenixValley -- both universities were heading up a national coalition of U.S. universities to support Israel, after the genocide was underway.

"Arizona State University in #Tempe, in the Phoenix Valley, has gone to the extreme to silence voices in support of Palestine. Besides forbidding pro-Palestine rallies, its harsh crackdown on encampments has resulted in 62 Palestine supporters now facing charges."

When #BloodMoney Isn’t Enough: #Raytheon Admits to #Defrauding Pentagon

#RTX’s bombs regularly kill children and civilians. It does white-collar crimes too, according to a $950 million #fraud and #bribery settlement this week.

"The #RTXCorporation, the weapons giant formerly (and better) known as Raytheon, agreed on Wednesday to pay almost $1 billion to resolve allegations that it #defrauded the U.S. government and paid bribes to secure business with #Qatar."
