Palantir CEO Alex Karp is sick and tired of his critics. That much is clear. But during the Yahoo Finance Invest Conference Thursday, he escalated his counteroffensive, aimed squarely at analysts, journalists, and political commentators who have long attacked the company as a symbol of an encroaching surveillance state, or as overvalued.
“Patriotism will make you rich.”
If you can’t smell the grift and propaganda coming off of this pile of shit then you’re a dangerously stupid human being.
This company should be dismantled and Thiel and Karp should be arrested for violations of our fourth amendment rights. Treason. Prosecute to fullest extent of the law
We’ll need to ask them if they’d like to waive any other rights along with their fourth. Like maybe their eighth
Patriotic nationalism is a religion that worships dirt.
Surveillance can only ever be used for oppression.
Financial obesity is neurotoxic.
I am completely ok with putting multiple cameras in your (Alex’s) home, work place and also making all your emails and messages public. All for the sake of patriotism ofcourse nothing else. Afterall if you have nothing to hide why wouldn’t you be ok with people reading your emails.
The glorious nation demands to watch you shit. Glory to Amerikkka home of the patriotic camera.
Or you know if you love America you could remember that those who trade freedom for security deserve neither and that one of our fundamental rights is to privacy from the government.
I have a colleague who invested in Palantir. I mentioned to him of the controversy with the company but he just shrugged it since he made some money before selling the shares. I don’t really pass judgement on many those who invest in unethical companies simply because the old fashioned way of working and saving simply doesn’t cut it anymore. The older generations could party and travel in their twenty’s, and buy a house and have family in their thirty’s. The younger generation can’t really do that anymore.
I also do investing and I realised that it’s hard to be ethical under a capitalist system. There are index funds I want to invest in because of lower initial investment requirement, but I don’t like the companies listed in those funds. And thus I have to individually invest in companies I like, but I have little gains because my capital is spread out across various equities.
It’s literally a tool specifically designed to accelerate and maintain fascism.
Hey Plantir, you keep saying fascism wrong
Can he be a victim to a hate crime please?
Billionaire says this. Billionaire says that. I don’t give a fuck what this parasite says. Him and others like him will face their reckoning day.
Palantir is a multinational data capture and analytics company.
What exactly is he/it being patriotic to? The US? If so, the company should be banned everywhere else in the world.
Israel
Palantir sounds like it could a russian multinational data capture and analytics company.
What exactly is he/it being patriotic to?
To himself obviously. You can even feel the narcissism coming from his fucking face.
There is nothing patriotic about spying on your neighbors, I thought we learned that several times already.
Violating everyone’s 4th amendment rights is unpatriotic
But didn’t you hear, he is making money from it so he should be entitled to continue
But is it very fascist, and that’s so hot right now.
Disgusting scumbag. Fuck off and die.
I’m getting so sick and fucking tired of people tying earnings potential to whether something is good or bad. Same thing with tying wealth to intelligence. It is so monumentally stupid and shortsighted.
