Peter Thiel's cronies are freaking out about my book.
Here's Garry Tan—an early Palantir employee who designed its logo—launching yet another attack.

NYT op-ed reminds billionaires to heed the French Revolution, mentions Network State cultists Peter Thiel and Balaji Srinivasan.
"It’s as if the sheer scale of this wealth, which beggars even the riches of the Gilded Age, has induced a kind of class sociopathy."

The concentration of wealth among the richest Americans is unlike anything in history — and so is billionaires’ influence in politics.
The USA has over 342 million people.
Only 902 billionaires.
It's when we say it's over.
