I hate how many terrible military industrial complex companies are out there trying to ruin Lord of the rings names.
Palantir, Anduril
Then there's valar ventures (a Thiel private equity firm), mithril capital and mythril capital
The way this BS pretends to speak my language by giving itself nerdy names adds insult to injury, really.
As far as I know those are all this asshole's ideas too. He's got some hedge fund called Lembas or something too, among others.
I'm surprised he hasn't just renamed himself Sauron at this point. (While talking ahout saving the world through his wealth and power, of course.)
Typical villain arc: Some self-absorbed billionaire with a main character complex decides they like a cultural touchstone, completely misses the point ot it, and ruins it for everyone else for their own profit.
