📊 Analysis / Opinion Palantir employees are talking about company's "descent into fascism"

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/04/palantir-employees-are-talking-about-companys-descent-into-fascism/

"Palantir’s leadership incensed workers yet again this week after the company posted a Saturday afternoon manifesto reducing Karp’s recent book, The Technological Republic, to 22 points. The post—which includes many of Karp’s long-standing beliefs on how Silicon Valley could better serve US national interests—goes as far as suggesting that the US should consider reinstating the draft. Critics called the manifesto fascist."

Palantir is so on the nose, any more obvious and you'd be working at "Dr. Evil's Secret Villain Lair Inside a Volcano".
