#5Who would you prefer filling the ranks at a company like Palantir?
1. People who are sympathetic to these concerns, and more likely to change thinking from within or whistleblow if needed.
2. Everyone left over who are pro police state and fascism?
OP’s post would only fill Palantir with the second group. This seems more dangerous than to fill it with a diverse crowd.

Palantir is the police state. They are not redeemable, as they are fulfilling their original mission. I urge people to see what the founders say on X, chilling.

It’s like with the military.
A pacifist with a gun is likely to shoot.
So pacifists should join in great numbers.
