    I saw another article that they provided the targets that lead to the school full of little girls being bombed. They are the bad guys.

    Crazy how long it takes for supposedly extremely brilliant scientists and engineers working at Evil LLC to realize that maybe their work is a net loss for humanity.

    It’s almost as if… they just didn’t care and pretended to realize their mistakes once everything was well exposed. It’s like reading obviously satirical scientists’ memos in Resident Evil. Except it’s real life and they’re not satire.

      Those companies have extremely well developed propaganda machines. They have to sell their technology and products as benefits to governments (i.e. society) and solutions to chaos (i.e. crime and terrorism), and they have extremely well refined language to describe themselves in positive term. If you don’t look past the company line, it’s easy to believe that the skeptics and warnings are all just FUD from haters, especially when the propaganda pays your mortgage.

      Then Palantir goes and publishes an actual fascist manifesto…

        The thing about propaganda is it works on the leadership, too. Eventually the fascists always take the mask off because they forget why they were wearing it in the first place.

      Grime calculus that is modern ethics. One of the funniest examples to me is Russia Orthdoxy, the Iranian ayatollah, and American Evangelicals all claiming each other in vary amounts being the forces of Satan and The Gays.

      Again dark humor to me. They are monsters excusing the oppression and murder of people though, but when fighting Satan muders ok./s

      Plenty of secular satans out there too. Communists, Nazis, The Jews, Blood thirsty anarchists, narcists, billionaires, schisos, etc basically any polball or Jreg character. They can be used to justify some horrendous deviation from morality and ethics. You know killing baby hilter kind of stuff. Reeducation camps are ok if they’re “terrorists” and the government is moved by the will of the people. Etc. etc.

    If Palantir employees had any amount of introspection, moral compass, or ethics, they wouldn’t be working at fucking Palantir. It’s safe to assume anyone working at Peter Thiel’s House Of Horrors is a turbo-Fascist, and should be [REDACTED] with the rest of them.
