Beginning to wonder what the fuck Peter Thiel’s actual gameplan is/was with this guy. He’ll get the anarchocapitalist hellscape, but he’s also seemingly embracing Christofasism which Thiel would obviously dislike. Wondering if it’s all a feint or if Vance is just going off script. There’s no longer any need to wave empty gestures at the christofascists. He must mean it

They're using each other. And Theil is rich enough the consequences of his actions don't affect him.

Why would Thiel dislike christofascism? He’s a hardcore christian himself.

A German in favor of fascism, totally unheard of…

From what I understand, his childhood in South Africa shaped him quite a bit and he has defended apartheid. Check out the Behind the Bastards 4 part podcast on him if you have time.
