I dont know who I want more to die already:

Trump, who is a stupid fucktard who is destroying the world, or Thiel, who is incredibly perceptive, incredibly intelligent, and significantly psychotic and is destroying the world.

Both have done so much harm.

You give Thiel too much credit. He is less stupid than Trump.

How the fuck do governments not at least check out the plan? It isn't a secret: Theil is a moron about people and believes in the theory that people need to be controlled and monitored, but also believes that a single world government is bad.

Therefore the only solution (in his mind) is that HE monitor everyone because only HE knows best.

and believes in the theory that people need to be controlled and monitored

The people who believe that all seem to have the idea that they're the ones who should do the controlling and monitoring. That's because they're power-mad whackjobs.

Whoever was involved in that procurement should be thoroughly investigated, and probably banned for life from holding any other position of responsibility. This is beyond insane.
