Peter Thiel's Mystical Society Dark Rating Exposed: Big Shots are Divided into Three, Six, and Nine Grades, with C Grade at the Top and A Grade at the Bottom, Prices Discounted Based on Fame
According to an analysis of the latest leaked data by WIRED, the secretive society Dialog, co-founded by Peter Thiel, has an extremely ruthless and biased "grading and elimination" mechanism.
Dialog implements a secret rule of "rating upon entry." Although the club has thousands of members, only 192 personal profiles (including 130 formal members and some candidates) were leaked and reviewed by WIRED. They reveal the club's counterintuitive hierarchy of disdain: C-level is the highest VIP, B-level is the overwhelming majority of ordinary members, while the A-level, usually regarded as the best, is actually the least known bottom tier.
This rating is directly tied to members' wallets. Only about 25% of VIP "C" level big shots are required to pay the full attendance fee, while among the bottom "A" level members, the proportion paying the full attendance fee of tens of thousands of dollars is as high as 70%.
Ironically, the AI screening mechanism introduced by Dialog is extremely superstitious about so-called "national recognition." For example, actor Josh Brolin, who played "Thanos," has never attended but wins VIP "C" level status due to box office success and millions of fans; meanwhile, academic giant Tyler Cowen was deemed "not famous enough among ordinary people" by the AI and nearly classified into the ordinary tier, only barely promoted to C-level through human intervention.
The "value-added points" serve as a scythe for eliminating "useless people," specifically measuring members' resource connections and intellectual contributions to other club giants. After each gathering, staff review members' performances like "code review," and those with too low value-added points, cultural mismatches, or declining visibility will be ruthlessly removed from the invitation list.
Additionally, the leaked database also exposed its built-in social and dating matching system (10% of members join the singles pool), which has a "no-match list" while recommending pairings.
This so-called objective assessment system is also filled with biases: women make up one-third of the members but only receive 18% of VIP seats; politically, it is even harder to escape differential treatment. Although more than half of the members identify as "left-leaning," the probability of "right-leaning" members obtaining VIP status is more than twice that of left-leaning members, and even the "left-leaning" label of an environmental leader was forcibly rewritten to "right-leaning" by staff in the background.
