Sauron does have a habit of consistently appearing, and consistently appearing where least expected.

I was saying this as a tounge-in-cheek way of calling Thiel evil. But also, Thiel is a LoTR geek, who took all of the wrong lessons from the novels, literally writing fan pieces that argued that Sauron was the good guy in LoTR to justify his personal authoritarian and fascist ideologies. Its literally why he named his company Palantir.
