Peter Thiel helped build big tech. Now he wants to tear it all down.: Inside the billionaire investor’s journey from Facebook board member to an architect of the new American right - "As an undergraduate at Stanford University, he founded the right-wing campus newspaper Stanford Review, which published articles calling liberal professors secret Marxists and railed against the inclusion of non-White authors in the school’s curriculum, according to journalist Max Chafkin, author of the Thiel biography, 'The Contrarian.'

"And Thiel’s influence could be felt throughout the company. In his best-selling 2014 book, 'Zero to One,' he argued that businesses should strive to make such a singular product that they become monopolies — while entrepreneurs consolidate power to run their companies like monarchies. Zuckerberg appeared to heed these lessons, multiple people said, from the structure of Facebook’s board, which gives the CEO the majority of voting shares and ultimate control, to his aggressive efforts to purchase or copy nascent competitors, a strategy that has given rise to accusations that the company is a monopoly.
...
"Thiel’s support of Trump — along with comments that resurfaced from a book co-authored with David Sacks that 'a multicultural rape charge may indicate nothing more than a belated regret' and that some rape charges are 'seductions that are later regretted' — provoked outcry within Facebook during election season, but Zuckerberg continued to defend his adviser."
