Why do the norms at YC allow Thiel to directly and aggressively support Trump, but discourage other partners from publicly objecting?

how are others discouraged? At the end of the day, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I still respect folks I disagree with

I'm not talking about respect. Calling out a friend for doing something you believe is deeply wrong is not disrespectful.

are you wanting to see him (or folks associated with him) punished or publicly shamed for their political views?

what I'm trying to get at: when folks take a side, they tend to dehumanize the other side. What benefit does shaming others bring?

shaming and calling out aren't the same. It's an opportunity to be clear about your values (as thiel has done!)
