I find when he has discussions with people having other viewpoints, he generally crushes them and it turns out to be underwhelming. I would prefer he just talk and we listen.
I do as well , he is an extremely knowledgeable intellectual with incredible insite to the future in many ways. He is deeply influential in this country in so many ways political, financial, militarily, innovation, and so on. His opinion should aways be carefully listen and considered if your smart enough to know this.
Thank you Atlas Society for sharing this speech! Peter Thiel can have anything in the world pretty much. Yet, you can see that he genuinely felt honored to receive this reward.
just found out about this society. Thank you for inviting Peter to speak, he is one of the clearest minds one can listen to on the internet, just like the autor who you honor.

The difference between a Randian and an anarchist is about 6 months. I am an Anarcho-Capitalist. Freedom will prevail. It's only a matter of how much suffering must be endured until then. Do what you can and don't be quiet about it.
“Conservatives subordinates Reason to faith and substitutes theocracy for Capitalism. Libertarians subordinate reason to whims and substitute anarchism for capitalism.” - Rand
He sounds credible when he talks about Zero to One. When he talks about politics he just turns into yet another American ranting divisive deluded left/right prejudice. How disappointing. And I have no words regarding the introductory music. Good grief. He's let himself become the dogma he warned us all about.
The speaker is totally inarticulate. He is completely confused. How can one be in favor of individual liberties and Trump simultaneously? Trump is the embodiment of conformity and control. Doesn't he know that the GOP does not tolerate the slightest dissent.
can you imagine what a top management meeting in PayPal was like back then? half the meeting would just be Peter Thiel and Elon Musk stuttering "um" and "uh"
Why did the Atlas Society host someone who doesn’t know what Objectivism? Furthermore, he took the stage and mocked Rand while giving the most superficial compliment possible.
Tbh, as you listen to more and more videos of him, you'll notice he like most humans he is highly repetitive. smart insightful but repetitive!!!! Very few people are a fountain of new knowledge in every turn, Peter unfortunately is not one of them.
Perhaps the people he is trying to reach need the repetition because their brains are slightly injured however they know they will repetitively view him and gain insight thinking hard about everything he says. you’re really not the target audience as he’s only going after a very select few; you know you ain’t one of the special ones are you Numb nuts? It could be that 99% of the people listening to this are completely irrelevant if they don’t play integral roles in the future of humanity. You are one of them. ALL Comedians riff and use the same material as that is the very process that allows them to gain new material you.! You didn’t say one thing to To criticize an idea or criticize any thought did you? you’re criticizing what you don’t know, what you haven’t read, and what you’re clueless about.
There might not be high quality evidence proving masks work but there probably isn't any high quality evidence that masks don't work either. And for a illness that is spread through the eyes nose and mouth, I'd be inclined to think it would be beneficial that we cover our eyes nose and mouths. It's a bit like sunglasses, if you will. So, you don't always need a weatherman to tell you when it's pouring down. But then again if everyone else is wearing masks you may not need to, but there is always someone who won't be.
Disease transmission isn't readily available to the senses, comparing it to pouring rain is a false equivalence. And there is proof that the glare of the Sun will damage your eyes, again a bad example.
@@davidste60 sensory availability here is irrelevant. I was talking more about the obvious nature of certain factors. Do you really need proof that glaring at the sun will damage your eyes!? Is it any wonder that sewing your mouth shut will stop you eating more cake?
@@awh4272 Yes, without proof it's an unwarranted assumption that glare will damage your eyes. It's no more or less obvious that pushups will destroy your pectoral muscles, without evidence. Sewing your mouth shut and eating cake is again a false equivalence.
@@davidste60 once again false equivalences are irrelevant. Obvious factors not needing to be proved/disproved, are relevant, as in the original statements made.
@@awh4272 They are not obvious, and that is relevant. Pushups cause pain in the muscles and quickly diminish you're ability to keep performing them. You only know that they are not damaging because of evidence and you only know that staring at the Sun is damaging and doesn't actually improve your eyesight over longer periods of time because of evidence. So yes, proof is needed for all things that aren't immediately available to the senses.
His zero to one speech was an exact replica, often word for word. Still love his thinking I guess it's hard to come up with hard hitting original material all the time.
The chairman of university where I study gives exact same orientation speech every year to newly admitted batch, so ig when you've various conferences on similar topics, then why try to add something new, ofc its boring for those who've heard it before, but still smart way to avoid spending time on speech writing
Comedians riff and that’s how they gain new material. I wonder if it bores yourself to criticize someone without criticizing anything about their ideas as they just listed a bazillion things you could talk about. I have an original thought concerning XY axis, the first and last commandment, and how you can use that as a target on how to get you to a place where the mob has little effect on you. New material from Thiel 2 months ago concerning Girard was What gave me this idea. I’ve seen every single Peter Thiel video and this is completely new. I challenge you to talk about ideas. This generic criticism is Weak and has to stop? The first commandment is to always be looking up and the last commitment is to never be looking around you. I even have a really cool visual I can draw you on a napkin, But you probably don’t give a shit cause it’s just the ramblings of a madman right? At least I have an original thought, what do you have?
it sucks when i understand or was already aware of 70% what thiel said here. this talk is all over the place, buy btc when its $60k? where was he when it traded for dollars??!
I think, um, that many in the audience could, um, probably, um, give this speech better than Thiel could, because, um, they've already, um, heard it on TH-cam a bunch of times, and, um, uh, he, um, repeats the same things over and over, like, um, when he, um, said the thing about the ticker tape parade for Satoshi, he, um, said it the same exact way in other speeches. He does that a lot.
His kind of stammering shows: he can not think clearly when talking about politics. He talks in zigzag lines. Ask yourself at the end: what exactly was he talking about! Waste of time to listen to this man.
As smart as he may be, he is so shockingly wrong about covid. It isn't excessive dogmatism when the entire community of public heath physicians and infectious disease experts agree on the strategy to prevent covid transmission (i.e. masks and vaccines, that do work) - not him citing that one Stanford fringe medical doctor who hasn't had any training in this area. As much as it may seem cool to be contrarian and oppose mainstream thinking, it is mainstream for a reason and the science is extremely overwhelming about what works and what doesn't.
Some people are to smart for their own good. They are very knowledgeable in one field like extremely smart in one field but they make the mistake and think they can just carry over this to another field. Being ignorant about the amount of effort it takes to be that knowledgeable in any field. I have the feeling that Thiel suffers from this form of ignorance, brilliant man but underestimates the effort to learn other fields of knowledge. With all that said I have a huge amount of respect for him and always listen to me if he shares new bits of information. It is just important if people are listening to him right now they should ask themself if they maybe find themself victim to his described dogmatism.
lmao still trynna justify mask & vaccine mandates despite clearly seeing that such forcible mandates are senseless & self-contradictory (DR. Fauci, Boris and every fkin tyrant broke his own rules and then you think these morons aren't "fringe"?!), also, not just one Stanford doctor, its the whole Swedish administration too which called BS on such mandates, UK govt is now also exposed and forced to end their BS, but sheep still sleeping ig
At the end I thought Peters candidate for his ticker tape parade hero would be Donald Trump! Trump would be a great if somewhat ironical choice... but we would have to live in an enlightened society with a sense of humor. Nerdwriter made a good video essay about how Trump is a gift to democracy... th-cam.com/video/9Tji1g0WrPw/w-d-xo.html

@@DrBlood-cq2cm It's David vs. Goliath every time
What an amazing speaker and thinker. Peter Thiel is truly a thought leader
It's always so refreshing to listen to Peter Thiel talk.
Who searches "Peter Thiel" in the search box every week to see if he has a new interview or speech? I do, quite frequently.
I do as well , he is an extremely knowledgeable intellectual with incredible insite to the future in many ways.

How come he hasn't been on Joe Rogan or the Lex Friedman podcast?
Very good question
probably doesn't want to risk deviating from the standard riffs too much, though I admit Thiel on Rogan would be pretty lit
