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.

Leeching off a dying empire with miltech... Now who's the real parasite Alex?

While detractors warn Palantir fuels the surveillance state, Karp argues the company exists to prevent abuses of power—by making the U.S. so technologically dominant it rarely needs to project force.

Does this make any sense at all? Even if they were able to make it the U.S. never needs to "project force", how does that have any bearing on preventing abuse or the U.S. becoming a surveillance state.

Ah yes, the old slap some, "patriotic" shit on it.

There is nothing patriotic about spying on your neighbors, I thought we learned that several times already.

Builds army of surveillance tools

"Stop calling it surveillance" These people would be so funny if they didn't have such a negative impact on millions of people

Violating everyone's 4th amendment rights is unpatriotic

Fortune gives Karp soapbox from which to say whatever he wants, unchallenged. Eventually, though, they get to..

Critics—especially civil-liberties groups—have accused Palantir for years of building analytics tools that enable government surveillance. Karp says these attacks rely on caricature, not fact.

Then, at last, they finally demonstrate some journalistic Integrity and rebut his statement with why those groups make those accusations.... Oh, wait, no they don't. They just end the article with one final quote from him that could just as easily have been from Hitler.

“Pure ideas don’t change the world,” he said. “Pure ideas backed by military strength and economic strength do.”

Disgusting scumbag. Fuck off and die.

What? Criminal scum complains about being called criminal scum?

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.

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

Remind me to never let the people I live with buy a ring camera.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp is sick and tired of his critics

I'm pretty sure that goes both ways.

Patriotic nationalism is a religion that worships dirt.

Surveillance can only ever be used for oppression.

Financial obesity is neurotoxic.

I used to think I couldn't hate anyone more than Peter Thiel, but I fucking hate this guy so much.

What an asshole. If the same thing that makes your government powerful also makes your government evil, than supporting that thing does not make you a patriot, it makes you a fascist.

More like no morals makes you rich. Evil and money are on the same side of the coin in this presidency.

Patriotism would be auto finding violations of the constitution and bringing up legal action for every one.

Would it be morally wrong to kill people like this?

Punchable face.

COVID missed a few assholes.

Boohoo he's "sick and tired".

Get raped and die you fascist fuck.

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.

FLAG!!!!

The guy considers himself a democrat

Why do they keep reporting what mirror dimension Taika Waititi said?

Let's leverage the full capabilities of these "tools" to stalk, analyze, and publish whatever it finds on this little CEO, and see how "patriotic" he's feeling after like a week.

It's all "smart investing" and "patriotism" as long as it's used on somebody else.

Real patriotism would be mercilessly stamping out threats to The People's life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Threats that these asshats and their toys embody without question.

By patriotic, I guess he means taking money from Eppstein and Thiel and obtaining further funding from Israel to develop an application that is as unethical as possible? Unfortunately, this bastard is successful because there are influential people all over the world who think this is great - or they get payed to think so.

In Germany, for example, one federal state has just amended its police law to enforce the use of Palantir products against applicable law and, of course, against the will of the population – with the support even of (allegedly) leftwing parties whose voters strongly reject this. Well, you don't need to buy the voters, just a few politicians.

It is truly a shame what representative democracies have degenerated into due to the power of a few very influential and utterly unscrupulous billionaires.

No CEO is needed. He should become a better person and quit.

Fascism and prosperity gospel, both are a circle on the Venn diagram.

Hey Plantir, you keep saying fascism wrong

It's literally a tool specifically designed to accelerate and maintain fascism.

Gross

This dumb curly headed fuck can suck a bag of dicks.
