 Level: 3 CS Original | A neotenous, 30-something guy with an annoying voice (he looks and sounds like a teenage geek) has attracted a cult following with his libertarian "seasteading" fantasy. I've read that Patri has gotten money from Peter Thiel for his project, and I suspect he might even have inherited some of his grandpa's money. (I've had trouble finding out the value of the estate Milton Friedman left when he died in 2006; but given his status as an apologist for the American ruling class, he must have accumulated quite a wad for his services.) So, does Patri even have a real job now? What makes him an "expert" on "seasteading"? | |||||
