This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Somehow nobody has mentioned the drugs? And obvious signs of mental illness? Obviously high functioning, but that does not make the decisions less nuts.

Has anybody seen the Johnny Harris video on musk? It was all fun and games until the drugs came out to play.

Peter Thiel also does a shit ton of drugs and you don't see him spiralling this hard

I'm convinced that Thiel is spared this fate solely by his homosexuality and shame in it. He understands the value of keeping some things close to the chest and the risks of being the face of anything. He just came to it in a sad and fucked up way.

Comparatively, Musk thinks himself a glorious hero who should be the face of everything.

Thiel rarely puts himself in any spotlight unless he's either curated it, or drugged up, freaked out, and kinda losing it.

Did you read the interview with his former fixer / event manager / third? Very interesting.

No I haven't. Could you link it?
