Sorry boys! DL fave Peter Thiel got married over the weekend!

Peter Thiel got married in Vienna this past weekend, Axios has learned. Guests came expecting to celebrate the billionaire venture capitalist's 50th birthday, but instead were surprised by a wedding to longtime boyfriend Matt Danzeisen.

Thiel, who was an early investor in Facebook and a co-founder of PayPal, endorsed Donald Trump during the campaign and has been a rare voice of support for the president in Silicon Valley. Thiel's spokesman declined to comment for this story.

Another couple of gay men who are protected from any kind of bias or anti-gay legislation by "virtue" of their great wealth. Must be nice in that 1% Bubble.

My life is just fine, R2. And you completely missed my point.

The happy couple.. with bridesmaid Ann Coulter,

Wow. He even ties his tie like Trump.

Upon leaving the church, were hundreds of vultures released by the posse of Hitler Jugend lookalikes?

I'm assuming both Peter Thiel and Anne Coulter have spoken against gay marriage in the past? Regardless, you have to marvel at the ability of these people to rationalize their hypocrisy.

Did Pence hang him and his husband?

First, it's ANN not Anne Coulter, and I assume most here know that's not her in R4's link.

Second, Thiel hasn't spoken out against marriage equality, but he did say in the past that it "wasn't important" to him (a lot of gay conservatives have said the same thing over the years). Clearly that has changed.

Thanks to Peter's PR intern for clearing up this misunderstanding r10

The boyfriend is gorgeous. Where are the nude pictures?

Bitch had good weather here for the wedding, too.

If I'd known I'd have gone to the venue to throw a few stinkbombs (and undoubtedly get arrested and/ or mauled by his goons, but it would have been worth it).

Sean William Scott must be heartbroken.

Almost forgot - Austria doesn't have gay marriage, so I don't know what exactly Thiel did this weekend -- maybe some sort of a commitment ceremony, or just a big party. But not a wedding with a certificate that would be valid for recognition in the US.

Oh, and I don't know whether r14 is really so stupid he doesn't realize that Thiel's the one shitting on other gays, or if he's just trolling -- either way, F&F and ignore.

Oh, hey, when you ignore r14, you realize that he's also the OP of this thread, and r2!

Welcome (I guess?) to DL, Peter. Maybe you'll learn something here. God knows you can't make the place any bitchier than it already is.

Thiel is evil personified, telling us that he can't see gay rights going backwards at this point.

Um, Peter Thiel, what do you think of your hero Trump, now?

FUCK YOU

and is that fat chick in the picture really Anne Coulter?

Let's hope his husband is a future black widow

Damn, I've been waiting all my life for an ugly, nasty, vindictive Nazi. Now what?

It's AYN not ANN. Also those people in the picture with Thiel aren't his Hubby and AYN.

Comedy "Silicon Valley" featured a Peter Thiel- like character in the episode about Blood Boy. Thiel had previously talked about how getting blood transfusions from young people could extend a person's life and health.

The wedding was fine but the reception was shit, except for the fountain gushing with the blood of teenagers.

The Soylent Green cakes were underdone and a bit bland as well. While I can see the point in going organic the taste just isn't the same, at least to my palate.

This is the husband, Matt Danzeisen. (The guy on the right in R4 is a moderator of a panel discussion Thiel attended.)

(The non-husband guy was on the left in R4)

Here's more info on the husband (at link).

WTF, now we have a Peter Thiel troll on here?

3 threads in one day, really, Peter -- I mean, OP?

And r26, maybe you want to read r13's post again: he's not displaying homophobia, just Thielophobia, which is totally justified. Thiel is a disgrace to gays. I never thought I'd say this, but why couldn't he stay in the closet?

R26, it wasn't the left that voted against gay marriage or gays in the military.

Thiel is the guy who funded the lawsuit against Gawker because he was upset that Gawker revealed that he was gay. Yeah, he's a real piece of work. When he was younger, he was in the habit of unearthing his hook-ups secrets as a means of keeping them from talking about him. This was back in grad school.

If there were a fire and I had to choose between Zuckerberg and Thiel, I'd save Zuckerberg.

The gays on the left have Tim Cook, CEO of Apple. who is as angelic as Peter is demonic.

Peter Thiel believes that women should not have the vote.

Thiel is simply another Deplorable Asshole - but even worse. He'd probably wave to the train engineer driving the long line of box cars to Pence's gay version of Auschwitz.

[quote] Sorry boys!

Peter wouldn't want me and the feeling is the same here, so there isn't anything to be sorry about.

[quote] And the ugly homophobia of the left shines through once again.

No homophobia at all in that post. Just calling out Thiel as a cunt he is.

I thought Thiel said he abstains from gay sex?

Now THAT'S a straight looking gay man. Hubba hubba hubba.

You get what you pay for.

So R33 we have a choice of an unattractive 50 year old bottom, or an unattractive 56 year old bottom.

My God, I thought he'd seen the last of 50 years ago. Turns out he's 2 years younger than I am—and I'm not even moisturizing with the blood of young victims!

r2 doesn't show up for me. That's weird, I don't have anyone blocked.

Peter cries and takes a Silkwood shower after sex.

This vile man is now venturing into Josef Mengele territory. He's running clinical trials on vaccines and meds and devices and god knows what else outside of the country, because he wants to escape the scrutiny of IRBs (Institutional Review Boards). In other words, he won't even commit to following the Nuremberg Code that was written by the Nazi War Crimes Tribunal in 1947. Forget informed consent or basic medical protection, he's willing to infect or injure thousands of people just to find a magical formula for longevity for himself and the 1%.

I have to agree, I really do not get it. But they are good at it. I guess that must be a trait of a sociopath.

"When he was younger, he was in the habit of unearthing his hook-ups secrets as a means of keeping them from talking about him. This was back in grad school."

Details please! Do you know him?

I really hate to use the word, but is R26...retarded?

Troll?

Troll, clearly. Although it's possible that he's both.

Interesting because this guy was also seeing Thiel for years - there is a pic of Thiel's house on his instagram from as recently as Feb. 2017.

How many side pieces does he have?

I can assure you I did not approve or issue them a signed marriage license.

I was surprised when they showed the picture of his husband. I thought it would be the guy in R49 as well, as he was flaunting his relationship with Thiel. I guess he didn’t play his cards right. Or maybe Thiel has an open marriage from the start.

Is the hubby a Log Cabinette, too?

R46, nothing juicy. I know people who knew him. Basically, it sounded one step away from blackmail as a means of keeping people from talking about him.

His soliciting Weinstein victims for lawsuits is basically his way of trying to destroy Weinstein the way he destroyed Gawker. Won't stop with Weinstein--it will be a way to try and control Hollywood or whomever through "Legalist". He truly is that pathological.

And, of course, his company is all about deep data and datamining.

I'm blanking on the name - but who was Thiel's Stanford buddy who screamed "Fags die of AIDS!" or something like that at a professor? He also became a big tech titan and came out of the closet after a male employee accused him of sexual harassment

So did he marry his blood bag or are his side-hos his blood bags. Either way, rot in hell, Thiel

He is poor compared to the rest of the tech titans. He made a lot of bad investments. He tried to mimic actual successful people and lost his hat.

He just wants to be zuck so bad he can taste it.

Austria. How appropriate.

Sorry OP, but we are not sorry. At all.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

I bet most of you would hook up with him just because of his wealth, even though you criticize him for everything else.

He barely has any money left. Now Tim Cook or David Geffin.... that's real money.

Sorry, but a million bucks doesn't go far these days. That's about the average price for a starter home.

Call me when you're a billionaire.

He is such a poser. he was born in Germany, yet loves to use American tech jargon that he has NO IDEA what it means. He is anti democracy and anti freedom and an all around prick.

Who cares who he marries, but that's all anybody will print. I want the real T.

R62, you are wrong. He is richer than ever (unfortunately)

What makes you think Thiel isn't rich? His company, Palantir, (the one that's stealthily taken over downtown Palo Alto) has a $20 billion valuation, though it's struggling to hold on to it.

I'd be delighted if it tanked, though.

Peter misses being breastfed by Seann and his magnificent mantits.

Forbes.com says his net worth is about 2.6 billion.

R59, it was Keith Rabois, a law student. He yelled at a dorm, "Faggot! Faggot! Hope you die of AIDS!” and “Can’t wait until you die, faggot!” It was basically a provocation to protest Stanford's speech regulations, but no less nasty for that. Funny, I was at Stanford then and when I think back hard enough I can totally remember this incident—even Keith Rabois's name. To come back to the present and find these twerpy assholes now billionaires and basically running the country is incredibly disorienting.

I had never heard of him until recently. He seems very accomplished.I Google his picture as well, compared to other billionaires I looked at aftewords his expression appears strained around the mouth with very little sparkle in his eyes. With all he has accomplished it seems unusual.

R74 He seems like he's an alien pretending to be human, which is common for Germans.

If you find it disorienting that the lucky few who went to Stanford and other similar institutions are the ones who end up "basically running the country," even while being one of them yourself, R73, you are not very self-aware.

Anyway, Thiel is a piece of shit and I hope he loses everything. Including his citizenship here in New Zealand, wherefrom he can push Trumpism in the United States with total insulation from its consequences.

Ugh, god, don't give clicks to Axios. They're all a bunch of former Politico brass who got kicked out of Politico for shady ad deals.

--Jim VanDeHei, professional dicklicker

Neo Nazi Peter Theil appropriately got married in the Austria, the homeland of Hitler, the same weekend NazI's did well in Austrian elections.

The sad part is that Keith Rabois is gay and yelled that out, even if testing the freedom of speech. Was hit up with a lawsuit for sexual harassment charges. If both weren’t rich, do you think they’d be successful in finding boyfriends?

Do they share their blood boys?

Was Seann at the wedding?

Famous picture of Trump holding Thiel's hand at a Technology Summit Conference with lots of heads of technology companies in attendance. Trump wouldn't let go, and it appeared to freak Thiel out a bit.

Is that Mike Pence looking on, judging?

[R75] I'm not even German...but I felt the pain of that dig lol.

He did not get married in Austria, dumbass r80. As pointed out above, Austria doesn't do gay marriage. So maybe he had a commitment ceremony or some such thing, but he did not get a marriage license.

And realistically, the Nazis the world needs to worry about are the ones at Breitbart, not in Austria (where, by the way, saying or doing anything that could be construed as "Nazi" will get you a longer prison term than murder. No joke.).

Who would marry Thiel? His hubby must be insane

[R87] Agreed. Or... he’s just a paid stand-in so Mork looks like business-as-usual over there at the Pentagon and nobody asks any questions. Speaking of unanswered questions, someone should probably check in on the guy from [R49] and make sure he’s alive / not cryogenically frozen, was definitely a thing for the last like 8 years.

^ Maybe Peter murdered him to take all his blood

More mocking of this soulless sauerkraut please.

That shit happens daily on DL. Hmmm...

So is Peter Thiel Austrian? I thought he was German. Maybe he just prefers the far-right Austria over neoliberal Germany.

Peter, the Young Republican days: Diversity is bad, mmmmmmkay

R27/R28: who was the moderator in R4?

[quote]He is such a poser. he was born in Germany, yet loves to use American tech jargon that he has NO IDEA what it means.

He was born in Germany, but his family moved to the U.S. when he was an infant (same as actor Bruce Willis). He could barely be considered German.

He brought down Gawker because they outed him and now marries a dude, no one say anything about this wedding.

R96, Bruce was the child of an American soldier. But wasn't Thiel just of German parentage, i.e., he's a first-generation immigrant.

[quote] And the ugly homophobia of the left shines through once again. See [R13] as example. Never ceases to amaze.

R26 you are way too busy looking for "the ugly homophobia of the left" to see the the ugly homophobia of the right that is every where around you.

Yet he supported a president who specifically said he was uncomfortable with gay marriage and would nominate SCOTUS judges to overturn gay marriage in the US
