What I find highly ironic with Thiel’s silly line of thought is that as someone with a Catholic background the far better candidate is Trump. That is, as a total inversion on values of Jesus, that deceive Christians into following him. On top of my head:

- Extreme pride instead of humility

- Extol strength and warrior attitude instead of kindness

- War on empathy instead of love

- Attachment to material things, money, success, again complete inversion of Jesus teachings on how to get closer to God

- On top of the personality cult, literally posts himself as the Pope

- Sell his own blasphemous bible to make a personal gain

- Leader of the most powerful country, so fitting with the idea of most mankind having been deceived into glorifying himself

Don’t take this seriously of course, my point is just that if someone wants to go with this route picking Greta instead of him is absurd.
