The post (and the website) is also an add for the author's upcoming book. I don't know the author or their prior work, but the clever title itself has me intrigued.
As for my comment on the post itself, as someone living in NZ I'm relieved Thiel chose to go to Argentina instead (for now). Also, it really shows how scared these people are. For all their wealth and power, they are clearly scared lonely little children.

It's a hit piece and healivy editorialized to give facts a bend. I end up disliking these kinds of articles since they always want to sell an angle.
I heavily dislike Thiel but this is not how reporting should look like.

This new class of aristocracy is so weird.
Joe Rogan is quite successful so he has to be intelligent for some things, but for other things...
I've seen him commenting on his podcast more than once of how the administration is conducting itself, with prosecutions, with ICE, etc.
He's not concerned about these actions, instead he's concerned about the precedent it will open when the others come around - probably because he fears that will happen to him too.
I don't know if this was his own idea, or if it was what someone told him, but it does show how this new billionaire class is navigating this event for which many contributed to, and it's quite telling where their morals e ethics stand.

_IF_ (big if) the Republicans lose power, whoever follows will need to show real action and consequences. The Democrats already failed with J6. I don't think the American people will accept a similar outcome.
TLDR
Thiel lacks confidence in the Trump regime and is fleeing from the US.

For two months.
It’s the latest move for Silicon Valley's most prominent apocalypse enthusiast, who seems to be wandering the earth anxiously in search of refuge.
Can't say I'm fond of PT but I'm sure The Nerd Reich sees everything with a filter of their own world view.
They're just as likely to be getting a house the way others might get a hotel room to visit Argentina for the gaúchos and chimichurri.
Argentinians are one of the most passionate people on earth in every sense of the word.
