A NYU dropout raised $19M to build a futuristic Mediterranean city called Praxis, based on 'traditional Western beauty standards.' The project aims to cater to specific persona groups, including 'muscular warriors, very thin priests, and portly merchants.' The funding was led by Paradigm and co-invested by Peter Thiel. The project has raised concerns about its focus on physical appearance and potential misrepresentation in the news. Additionally, a Chinese Communist Party sponsored delegation featuring several New York Democrats was reported, raising questions about their association with the CCP.
Chinese Communist Party sponsored delegation featuring @WillABarclay @MichaelforNY @SamForNYC and @AMLesterChangNY in Beijing. Great stuff guys! Nothing better than being propaganda props for Dems in New York and Communists in China. https://t.co/74ndTBBAo8
Here is a clip from yesterday’s talk at The People’s Forum headquarters in midtown, who is organizing upwards of 20 protests per week. Not only did the NYTimes recently reveal that they are funded by the CCP, but @GoldmanSachs philanthropy arm also donated $18M. https://t.co/UzEqw6LbDW
Praxis, raises $19M with an idea of a Mediterranian city with only hot women and muscular men. Led by Paradigm, co-invested by Peter Thiel. Are we sure zero-interests are over yet? Maybe the news reporting is misleading, but this looks like someone is raising money to satisfy… https://t.co/NfOsFD5NG1
Dryden Brown created Praxis, a theoretical crypto-city he wants to populate with tech bros and tastemakers. Just don’t ask for details. https://t.co/OXQpsVI06s
