Their line in the sand is entirely public-relations-driven.

It can influence political events, and any coverage of those events. Reporters have already received death threats for writing news that didn’t support an outcome that’d cause someone’s bet to pay off.

It’s gambling, just as a “prediction market” on the outcome of football games is. Regulate it as such.

Polymarket creates a dangerous feedback loop, financially incentivizing certain political outcomes. It should be shut down.

Don’t bet on it. Thiel’s a madman, and he owns Vance.

it absolutely has undertones of martyrdom

Some, such as his grifter wife, are pushing that narrative hard, but mainly he’s just not being discussed as much. For many others on the right, his znti-zionism runs against their desired narrative (even if it was coming from antisemitism rather than from basic human decency).

I suggest the rebadged name should be Antifa.

But I paid him (or her) not to say it.

Money-hoarders.

Regardless of the possibility that Pritzker’s a good 'un who somehow slipped through the net, we should still have a policy that causes existing billionaire to not be billionaires anymore, and to prevent the emergence of new billionaires.

If that were to happen, Pritzker would still be a good 'un (if he really is) but inequality would have been reduced a little.

If we don’t snip off that long tail, democracy won’t have a chance to recover.

Good thing Pritzker’s not the only possible choice.

Well, fraud and crawfish.

What better combination than graft and mud bugs?
