Peter Thiel set to lecture Tennessee on the modern antichrist and total annihilation

Peter Thiel, co-founder of the warfare-tech company Palantir, is reportedly bringing his latest round of antichrist lectures to Tennessee, amid concerns about data centers in the state.

Tech billionaire, MAGA supporter, and co-founder of Palantir, Peter Thiel, is taking his spiritual tours to the South in a series of closed-door lectures.

Thiel’s talks, which started in San Francisco and moved to Rome, Italy, have been dubbed the Antichrist lectures, in which the tech oligarch ruminates on a malevolent figure who will bring about the end of the world.

The “renowned venture capitalist and philosopher” will appear in Nashville on the 28th of September to discuss the modern antichrist through “Thiel’s unique vantage point,” the event ad reads.

Thiel isn’t just giving one lecture. Instead, he devised a four-part series called “The Nashville Antichrist Lectures.”

The lectures will last 1 hour, followed by a discussion and Q&A session. Ticket prices are $100.

What do you mean by “antichrist” lectures?

While much of the content has been kept private, Thiel has previously described the antichrist as an “evil king, tyrant, or anti-messiah” who will appear to mortals “in the end of times,” according to The Guardian.

The antichrist is not a single entity, but a global, techno-authoritarian regime that defies Christianity, according to USC Dornsife.

His previous talks included sermons that weave in modern history and contemporary philosophy with a dash of conspiracy.

In his previous talks, the venture capitalist added references to The Lord of the Rings, video games, and popular TV shows, as well as reminiscing about conversations with SpaceXAI chief Elon Musk and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, The Guardian reports.

In addition to the antichrist, Thiel believes there could be another potential threat: Armageddon.

Armageddon is characterized as the collapse of civilization as a result of global warfare and mass destruction. For Thiel, it's either authoritarianism or total annihilation.

But tech overlords like Thiel are making the chances of both happening far more likely.

Iranian children died with help from Palantir

Thiel has made billions off Palantir through government contracts like Project Maven, an initiative from President Trump’s Department of War.

This initiative is potentially the world’s first example of AI-assisted warfare, with its first notable use being in the US-Israeli war on Iran, where Palantir data and Anthropic’s AI systems were used to strike thousands of targets.

The US government unknowingly bombed a school, killing roughly 168 Iranian people, mostly children, after Anthropic’s AI systems made a decision based on 10-year-old data, according to The Independent.

Palantir helped build the Maven Smart System by mining data to generate insights from classified satellite data, surveillance, and other intelligence technology to help with real-time targeting, according to The Wall Street Journal.

While tech giants profit from warfare, others embody overlords marking their territory with huge data centers.

Musk’s Colossus data center faces backlash in Tennessee

SpaceXAI, Tesla CEO, and the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, built a 1-million-square-foot data center in Memphis, Tennessee, which haunts its residents.

Human rights groups like the NAACP have dubbed Musk’s Colossus a “dirty data center” and have accused the tech mogul of violating US environmental regulations and polluting nearby Black communities with toxic chemicals.

However, the US moved to dismiss the group’s lawsuit. The NAACP claims that President Trump had given Musk permission to break laws set out in the Clean Air Act.

While not much has been done about Colossus, people who oppose new AI data centers in the state are using the backlash in Memphis as a blueprint for action, CNBC reports.
