尽管你对此一无所知,但你已经处于彼得·蒂尔的世界里了

早在 2009 年——就在贝拉克·奥巴马(Barack Obama)上任之后,那时许多严肃的思想家还在庄重 地预测种族主义和共和党的终结——蒂尔就在卡托研究所(Cato Institute)发表了一篇题为《一个 自由意志主义者的觉醒》(TheEducation of a Libertarian)的文章。 文中,他几乎预测并构想了特朗普及其追随者正在付诸实践的一切:政府机构的大规模解构、历史 多样性的抹除、监管和公共援助的削减,甚至对加密货币的痴迷。 导 语:彼得·蒂尔在一篇文章中写道:"试图教育广大民众,已成为一种徒劳的尝试。" 彼得·蒂尔(Peter Thiel)赢了。 在特朗普(Donald Trump)政府混乱的首月背后,隐藏着一套由蒂尔精心策划的政治蓝图。这位亿 万富翁科技投资人、PayPal 联合创始人、Gawker 终结者,早已为当下的政治局势铺好了道路。 的确,《2025 计划》(Project 2025)为特朗普的反政府战争绘制了蓝图,埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)也正以他在 Twitter 施展的大刀阔斧方式清除联邦工作人员。但蒂尔主义(Thielism)远早 于这一切。 斯坦福大学(S ...

晚点LatePost· 2025-03-08 12:17
特朗普或将延长 TikTok 出售期限。 制造业长期依赖很难被数字世界的技术改造和重塑,比如在互联网时代就有一批创业者和大公司下 场尝试,但多以失败告终;但 AI 或许带来了新的机会,毕竟十年前就提到的 "超级大脑" 现在终于 有技术路径实现了。 宝马或因不符合 USMCA 条款被征收高额加墨关税。 特朗普本周对遵守美墨加协定(USMCA)的汽车厂商给予一个月的关税缓征期,市场预期特朗普 或将削弱对加墨两国的关税,包括福特汽车、通用汽车、Stellantis 在内的部分汽车厂商股价出现反 弹。大众汽车于周四表示,其在北美生产的汽车符合 USMCA 的要求,或避免受到新关税政策的 影响;马自达也表示,未来 30 天内,其在墨西哥生产的 Mazda3 和 CX-30 也不会受到关税影响, 但正在等待政府的最终明确指导。 本周四,美国总统特朗普在白宫回应有关 TikTok 的问题时表示,如果 4 月 5 日前无法达成协议, 他可能会延长 TikTok 的出售期限。 不过,宝马的情况并不乐观。宝马的一位发言人对媒体表示,宝马反对加征关税,其在美国和墨西 哥生产的汽车不符合 USMCA 的规定,可能会被征收高额关税。据 ...

更离谱的来了
猫笔刀· 2025-01-20 14:18
昨天评论互动的时候我说稳定的家庭对事业和人生都有决定性影响,尤其对职业投资来说尤为重要。因为投资这件事不可避免的会遭遇各种压力,如果家 庭和睦稳定就会在一定程度上缓解压力,最要命的是投资已经心事重重,收盘后还要面对家庭压力,焦躁情绪会螺旋上升,持续挤压你本来就已经紧绷的 那根弦,很难受。 两种典型的家庭场景: 1、丈夫沮丧的在吃饭的时候说最近股市不顺,又被套了。老婆笑嘻嘻的说,内疚啦,内疚今晚你洗碗,我正好去盯孩子作业。今年股市是不太好,我隔 壁的同事小张亏了2/3,本来想换车的,没钱了。咱家没暴富的命,你别冲动玩太大就行。 2、 丈夫沮丧的 在吃饭的时候说最近股市不顺, 又被套了。老婆一脸紧张的追问,亏多少了?丈夫敷衍说了个数(肯定低于实际亏损),老婆听完 脸色就沉了下来,早就让你别炒了,干嘛还非要炒,你的水平你还不知道吗,叹气。沉默了一会继续说:家里还有房贷,老人身体也不太好,我平 时东省西省,你一下子就亏那么多,叹气。 这两者的差别,谁经历谁知道。 今天排倒数的概念都是小红书、出海电商相关的,原因也很简单,tiktok在美国又恢复运营了。特朗普出了份文件,澄清了所有帮助TT运营的美国公司都 将免责,这就 ...
