    Peter Tiel I think. Trump and Altman are more like grifters. Net Yahoo and Putin are contenders, but they’re using mass murder to solidify their own power… It just feels too pedestrian

    But Tiel is like a hardcore death cultist or something. He gives speeches warning about how AI will be the anti-Christ, then goes around putting up AI cameras everywhere. He’s the type that reads 1984 and pays people to build the torment Nexus

      He’s probably the closest thing to a Bond style supervillain that exist, if alchemy were real he would be trying to create a global transmutation circle to sacrifice humanity and gain immortality

        I decided not to use the word supervillain, but I was certainly thinking it loudly

        Hold on, I need to check deflock and make sure the cameras don’t form an alchemy circle

        I’m not, Steven Miller is a creepy little piece of shit

        But capability and reach are part of my moral framework. Miller is basically a coach for the brown shirts… He just yells at them to hurt more brown people faster. His words are vile, but they don’t change much

        He lacks the influence to be in the running

        That’s what he says in public, he’s said different things to a captive audience of billionaires apparently

        I think he’s actually just pro antichrist and so tries to sell his positions as the opposite
