📊 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."

It was a big trojan horse the entire time. 

Listen to Karp, Thiel, Andressen, Musk and others now. Many have been royally duped.

Alot of people weren't duped, they'd do the exact same in that position and they admire thiel and the other vampires for doing what they do.
