A source separately provided WIRED with the registration list for Dialog’s 2026 retreat, which names 222 people and records what the list describes as each registrant’s membership status and attendee type, including “active member” and “guest.” The retreat is scheduled for August 12-16 at a venue near Dublin, Ireland.
some pissed off Irishmen have what is, quite possibly, the best chance to do the funniest thing about the state of the world.
Kill them all?
I’m not calling for mass murder, but that would be funny and it would make the world a better place for sure!
I’m just saying that there are no innocent people likely to be invited to such a convention (reading the guest list included in that article, this suspicion seems to hold true – the ADL, the Cato Institute, the Koch Foundation – ew.), and the Irish have a history of asymmetric warfare and resistance against the powerful that gets results and doesn’t solely cause tragedy. They certainly seem to be much better at it than we Americans are. And having advance notice of when and where such a gathering is could be useful to the right person in the right place at the right time.
wishful thinking on my part, but god, how often do you hear “a great number of rich and powerful evil bastards ruining the planet, most of the ones worth knowing, are going to be gathering at this time and place” and not wish for something to happen? An asteroid. A car bomb. A sinkhole swallows their hotel. Something.
I’d be really surprised if it stays in Dublin at this point. All these guys are prepared for and used to last minute security change of venues
A_norny_mousseEven with the little detail above, it can’t be too hard to figure out the exact place…
oatscoop"Remove Paywalls" link to the article for those that need it.
LuckyDevilDialog also plays matchmaker. Its participant form asks registrants whether they are “looking for love” and offers to include “Single Man,” “Single Woman,” or “Other” respondents in “future matchmaking.” A separate site, dating.dialog.org, hosts an app pitched as “meaningful connections for exceptional people.”
“Evil Single Male Billionaire looking for Evil Single Female Billionaire. I just want someone I can continue pillaging the world with before eventually escaping to our luxury underground bunker in a secure location where we will escape the consequences of our actions. I like long walks on the beach, and reading poetry. ❤️”
RimuA dating pool consisting of 90% sociopathic old white men. Cringe and bizarre.
cecilkorikSo they’ve been working together and planning all this shit for at least 20 years, you think? *idly sharpens guillotine*
I got a linked in job offer come to me and their pro talking points was Peter Thiel was a board member. So instant delete. Like how tone def are recruiters

They just ate the illusions capitalism threw at them. You’d be surprised about the number of people who simply don’t care that their lives are run by shadow elites who destroy the world as long as they can watch TV and go on holidays.
Panem et circenses, 2000 years later, still works. You just need to make people believe they’re the winners of capitalism and they’ll support every ugly bit of it.
aquafunkalisticbootywhapIt doesnt hurt when they also use their mountains of cash and control of mass media and news production and outlets to champion voices supporting them, silence dissenting voices, stoke nationalism and xenophobia, and generally bend and warp popular culture to make fun of those who spend their time learning and doing well in school, educating themselves about history, gathering as workers, making patient, informed purchases-
the whole thing collapses when you look behind the curtain, everyone just hopes it’s not that bad, that the next big one happens after they die, and their kids can’t come knocking on their door to ask what the actual fuck were they thinking
I remember watching Bond movies as a kid and wondering “where did that evil supervillian get all these henchmen?” Turns out the answer all-along was “linkedin.”.
was thiel one of the founders/financiers of that company. i know thiel likes to be in the shadows while actually controlling his companies.
Where can we get a list of names? The archive.is link isn’t working
LOL Ted Cruz is right there next to all the CEOs
there are a bunch of other congressmen to. not really surprised bryan johnson is on there, the freak is has drank the koolaid on “blood boy” that thiel is also into(getting blood from his hot young male model who got defenestrated, and likely using clavicular now), bryan johnson basically gets young blood from his son and injects it to himself. he really believes his own bs/pseudoscience of staying young.
Cory Booker, no surprise there.
Noxyhe always seemed slimy. not surprised tulsi and ted cruz is also in there. especially tulsi is into cults.
SocialistVibes01My strong opinions on the matter could disrupt the neoliberal conformity and immobilism that beehaw calls well-being.
Gaywallet (they/it)I mean this is a list of people actively being intolerant of the world… paradox of tolerance applies here.
Irdial
irelephant [he/him]Ezra Klein being on the list is so fucking funny. Like, you telling me the “abundance” guy associates with the “techno monarchy” guy? Shocked I tell you, that the guy who’s proposed ideological concept basically just boiled down to “what if we deregulated stuff further to make economy good?” Is deeply tied to tech oligarchs.

I think that concentrating too much wealth / power into a person’s hands affects their mental health.
I think cause and effect are exactly opposite here: you have to be exceptionally, sociopathically greedy to want to become that rich, and then work towards it. Imagine all the actively harmful and antisocial decisions each billionaire has to make to increase their wealth. I believe most people just aren’t cut out for it.
But of course wealth/power then serves as an amplifier.
It’s definitely this. The Venn diagram between psychopaths and billionaires is a circle. Hell it’s almost a circle just with CEOs in general.
The lack of empathy is a massive advantage to operating in the corporate world.
I’m not sure, I think money does corrupt all but the steeliest of hearts. Right now I wish I made a little more so we could accomplish several goals we want. Once those are done, there are loftier long-term goals! Like many, I doubt I’ll ever be satisfied with my income, because I’m ambitious in the rest of my life. If I won a million dollars, I like to think I’d be satisfied because I could get those things done, although I’d still have to work. But… at that point I’d want more, so I could retire early and have more time to spend on the rest of my life. Now if somehow I got that much money - I like to think I’d be satisfied. But we can see time and again how that doesn’t happen. There’d be something else just out of reach. Our capability to want is near endless, and it’s a hunger that gets worse the more you feed it.
So really I don’t fool myself into thinking I’m immune to it, and I’m not a sociopath.
To be clear, Thiel was A Bad Dude from the get-go, but his impact and influence has expanded immensely since he made his nut in the PayPal era (he’s one of the OG PayPal mafia, along with phony stark)
treadfulThe retreat is scheduled for August 12-16 at a venue near Dublin, Ireland.
The Irish’ll know what to do.

There is overlap between that Dialog member list and the Epstein files. I don’t have time to go through it right now, but at first glance just skimming the Bluesky list, Larry Summers is in the Epstein files, as is Peter Attia.
I’d bet anything they’re not the only ones on both, either. If I get the opportunity I’ll look through it later and see if I can spot more.
jballsWTF is Jared Polis doing on this list? Maybe that explains his out of the blue decision to grant clemency to Tina Peters
acargitzOther talks include “Build-a-Cult,” moderated by the founder of the Christian networking site Pray.com, and “Build-a-Party,” run by a former White House national security official.
Well… I don’t like that.
derAbsenderIreland! Do your thing!
Herbal GamerI found this rather amusing:
The form also gathers sensitive answers, including each registrant’s “political leaning,” which Dialog promises “WILL NOT be shared in the app or with other participants, ever.” That data, and the matchmaking responses, were exposed in the leak.
Well that’s… fascinating. And kind of explains the trajectory of more than a few things in the recent-ish past.

This dickhead keeps trying to be some kind of TED lecturer, but gets laughed at by everyone outside his billionaire circle-jerk.
You’re rich, dude. Go sit on a beach and leave us alone.

I sometimes see these “leaks” as somewhat of a advertisement for their now justified crowd sourced security state. Gotta keep a eye on these plebs…. seee I told you so.
A shame. Good journalism would make them even more paranoid.
Joseph gordon levitt…that’s kind of a surprise.
His wife is (or was?) on the board of directors of OpenAI
If you watched him give the dumbest take ever on “parental rights” and facial recognition to push child privacy laws you’d definitely understand it better. He’s a soulless husk
Hesher is on there? 🤣
All of these people must be destroyed.
TED talks for the Epstein class
how careless of you to post this! we would
n’twant anyone turning this into a hit list or anything like that now, would we?Jared Polis - Governor, State of Colorado. Well I guess we know why he released Tina Peters.
Cory Booker - Senator (New Jersey), U.S. Senate. 100% shocked by this one.
They don’t call it the uniparty for nothing. He probably has orgies with Ted Cruz and the rest of the ghouls on the list (all of them)
Fair play to Wired to release this and draw attention to it when their former Editor in chief is on it.
There are also some names here that seem to be missing from elsewhere, maybe because they’re part of an earlier leak?
Greenblat couldn’t have been more obvious
Where list
Can we stop fuckng pretending that facial recognition to use your own computer and adult content has anything to do with child safety when JASON GORDON LEVITT is in the same fucking group as the creepy ass roblox guy?
It wasn’t exactly private, they legit mention the meeting in the files
Oi, it’s near Dublin! We got Irish trolls on Lemmy?
