I know Thiel paid legal fees. I know he had a vendetta against Gawker. So fucking what? Gawker was so horrifically disregarding of this guy's right to sexual privacy that a jury awarded $25m in punitive damages. Would you have preferred Gawker successfully kept this out of court?
In what insane world do the motivations of the person paying the lawyers' fees dictate whether or not the victim of a very real and very significant sexual violation deserves their day in court? If a friend helps pay my bills, do I deserve any less justice? FFS, man.
I'm sure you don't think you're a terrible person. But I reiterate: stay away from people who've been victimized in this manner. You lack the judgment.
And I'm genuinely sorry that I said something that upset you so much you would call a complete stranger a sick fuck because of a single tweet
But it wasn't about this case at all – Thiel funded any and all lawsuits against Gawker regardless of merit so that he could drive them under. That's a little different than your friend helping pay your bills for a single case
Somehow, you still don't get that even though this is all about Thiel *for you,* for some of us, the victim of the crime, and the people who perpetrated and then perpetuated it, are the more central figures. The ones you'll throw out to get to Thiel. Is it starting to click yet?
