All other considerations aside "Thiel-backed" guarantees all by itself that it's technofascist bullshit explicitly intended to benefit the oligarchs at the expense of everyone else.

Absolutely. Thiel-backed is a red flag hoisted on a flagpole whose tip reaches just below the ISS, whose width is at least 1000 football fields long, which is illuminated at all times by 5000 spotlights, and which is simultaneously and counterintuitively on fire despite the lack of oxygen at that altitude.

The flag is a dumpster, and is on fire.
