Wow, they really were powerful!!! Telekinetic domination!

> I think cis white males

This article is literally about Peter Thiel, who is gay, not cis.

I don't want to weigh in on this debate in general, but just to clarify terminology: "Gay" is orthogonal to "cis". "Cis" is short for "cisgendered", meaning "not transgendered".

"Cishet" (cisgendered + heterosexual) is used to combine the two axes, which may be what led to the confusion.

Gay people can be cis. Cis describes gender identity vs biological sex not sexuality.

Tech bros are not just white brah; why do you assume that?
