    I love their Ukraine coverage but anything domestic is outrageously imbalanced. Even their coverage of Ukraine was affected with the PM ousting, where they shat all over him as if reform isnt Russian themselves.

    That said your comparison was a bit much re Auschwitz.

        I don’t think its healthy to make that leap. They are opprtunistic cunts, they havent actively and personally killed people directly to a degree that requires infrastructure changes for transporting the victims.

          But they have:

          • enabled ICE to hunt, deport, torture and kill protestors and asylum seekers in the US

          • provided the targeting data for Israel in the Gaza genocide.

          • described those supportive of the NHS as suffering form Stockholm Syndrome

          • finally Thiel himself is a well known white supremacist who is anti-women anti-LGBT, and a doomsday prepper who appears to want to actively bring down society and test his own preparedness.

          they haven’t actively and personally killed people

          “just following orders” … “they’re just customers, its not our business to judge”… “bottom line is the bottom line” … “I’m just a clerk, they’ll do it whether I’m processing the paperwork or someone else does” … “I’m sure that if we didn’t provide the software that enables ICE to target and tear apart families in a clear and flagrant breach of the American constitution, someone else would, so really it doesn’t make any difference if it’s us profiting from illegal detention and mistreatment or someone else” … “Israel are our allies and it’s good that American companies have international contracts”

          Plus you absolutely do not want the entireity of the whole nation’s health data provided (not just free of charge but for negative cash) to a company with such disregard for privacy that I’ll be not just surprised but shocked if they don’t sell it en masse to insurance companies and anyone with deep enough pockets for it to be worth their while. And they’re using it with AI as part of the contract. Guess who’s going to be selling healthcare AI based off a whole population’s data provided to them at negative cost? Guess, go on.

          No, Palantir is an evil, evil, evil company, the IT suppliers to fascists and it’s naive in the extreme for you to excuse all this because they don’t get their hands dirty on actual physical immigrants and someone else pulls the trigger based on their targeting data in Gaza.

          They are ideologically opposed to the NHS and it’s utterly braindead stupid to hand over control of the NHS systems to people who want to destroy it.
