>Thiel's wealth has not bought the kind of radical life extension he desires, leaving him with a sense of disappointment about unfulfilled dreams.
Thank god.
That's an odd thing to say. There are plenty of people who I dislike, but that doesn't mean I want them to die.
But do you want them to live forever?
If they want to, then yes. Why wouldn't I?
Because immortal billionaires are highly likely to seize more and more levers of power, and presumably your dislike would extend to living in a civilization entirely under their control?
Definitely one of the most evil people alive today. Thiel is the poster child for why extreme life extension research is unethical.
Can't get his way, so he throws a tantrum and makes news that he's throwing a tantrum...
