The guys who keep telling you this make more money than either of us saying it, can be found on essentially every news media platform, and one of them just got appointed a Government Cabinet Position. In 17th if you said something off-script you'd be tied to a wooden pole and burned alive.

The science was done mainly by catholics in the Europe in the 17th century. Galelio was merely one of the most important astronomer that was doing research and was funded/defended by various Catholic church, Jesuits, etc. So was his heliocentric idea being defended in the church itself as well by many. It was only decades later when he was becoming famous that it caught the attention of the head honcho.
If today in science you questioned the validity of vaccine and side effects, manmade climate change, covid origins and the side effects of covid, mention the sex difference in biology, question the dogmas of how physics has been done for the last 50+ years, of difference in brain capacity in different humans, etc you get blacklisted from every scientific institution in the west to the point where you're no longer allowed to do science. Galelio could do his heliocentric research for decades and was funded/defended/respected by the Jesuits/etc.

Why doesn't he just fund his own institute of advanced study or something and freely release their research if it's so terrible?

Really? No one else ever tries to say things that are "off-script" and gets their life turned upside down? It's only the super wealthy that says this stuff and it has no consequence for them? No one else? No one being silenced out of fear of retribution for disagreeing with the contemporary orthodoxy? Or are you being intentionally obtuse? Just keep this in mind: monsters and golems created to destroy your ideological enemies are their own masters. You might think you control them as they do your bidding today but they will eventually turn on you and there will be no one around to save you from your own creation.

Nobody says things that are "off-script" unless they are getting paid for it.
Thiel is almost certainly getting a big payday from the new adminiatration he is defending.

Just don't be skeptical about the events of October 7. That would be the wrong type of skepticism, right Peter?
We need to be dogmatic where it is advantageous to Thiel's private interests.

As if the question of human nature cant be avoided
And the outcome of avoiding it is doublethink neo-marxist hyperviolence .

Well he's right. I remember a study being withheld from publishing that showed puberty blockers having zero effect on the mental well-being of victims of body dismorphia.

You are immature and it isn't for the reason you think. He already had his payday with Vance as VP, with Musk, and with Musk associated with Trump, and Trump and Vance winning. He already got his payday with PLTR with financial services and many other things. This speech isn't what is making him money. And in truth, you should see it not with him coming into alignment, but with him trying set the new standard.
He is also very timid on these issues because he is afraid of consequences of lighting up the science the way it needs to be.

The essay you posted a screenshot of directly states that the outcome of avoiding the question so far has been unprecedented peace and prosperity. The author then criticizes this status quo because he thinks it won't survive a confrontation with Islam (lol), and muses about whether the hypothetical end to all conflict that would come if people stopped bickering over things that didn't matter might ACKSHUALLY be a bad thing (lmao).
