      @sama @paulg "Fire" implies Thiel is employee, which he isn't. He's a PARTNER. "Views" demeans the immense effort Thiel put into surrogacy.

      @dhh @paulg he is not a partner. he is what we call a part-time partner, which shares a word but is legally totally different. no votes, etc

          @sama @dhh @paulg unlike an employee sounds like relationship that should be legal to break 4 conflicting cultural opinions that affect work

          @sama @dhh @paulg hard to teach YC companies the value (and legal requirements) of diversity when you are associated with Trump surrogate

        @sama @dhh @paulg who you actively pursue profit sharing w/ is reflection of your deepest held values (vs employee or past passive investor)

          @sama @dhh @paulg Clearly lots of people understand "part-time partner" as implying a similar level of endorsement and support as "partner".

          @sama @dhh @paulg BTW, I do wonder what prospective Muslim YC applicants think about YC's enthusiastic association with a major Trump donor.

          @sama @dhh @paulg Citizen's United aside, "giving millions of dollars to a campaign" counts as "action", and is not just "speech".

        @sama @dhh @paulg So fire him for his views on women's suffrage. https://www.cato-unbound.org/2009/04/13/peter-thiel/education-libertarian … Does YC not have any spine at all? Christ.

        @sama @dhh @paulg where is the 'political view' vs 'moral view' line drawn. Extreme example: segregation is a political or moral view?

        @sama @dhh @paulg @laura so no one has a right to support who they want in this country unless it is your side? Irony is strong in this one.
