    You would think the name was a dead give away that they were cartoonishly evil?

    I have no simpathy at all for them at all.

      I still have only vague ideas what they even are and do and why they are special. Yeah, marketing, data brokering, spying, PR, social engineering, propaganda, but then how does that differ from Meta and Google.

    When a company is named ‘Palantir’ you know what you’re getting into right from the start.

    Depolitized white cis hetero dudes will always fall for security (French socialists even reused a far right slogan saying “Security is the first freedom” without even going social security…) as an argument. Some will keep their works hoping for third party regulation so stop them to lescent even further. For Palantir workers though, harder to defend. The palantir is litteraly bad in the lord of the ring
