I appreciate that this might be a little tone deaf, but what the article is accusing Thiel of isn't hypocrisy. It is a completely consistent libertarian position to observe that government intervention gives people an unfair advantage and then attempt to take advantage of that advantage if people make it clear they aren't going to change the situation.

I'm of a very libertarian bent and think the money printing is stupid, but I'm careful to position my assets to take advantage of the money printing. That is not necessarily honourable, but it is consistent.
