Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.
"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X
The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.

Obama: What’s his first name?
Child: Mayor.

They use that stock as collateral to borrow billions.
They use those borrowed billions to buy everything, including media outlets which then pump bullshit like this to keep you in the dark about the tax loopholes designed just for them.

When the president tries to turn the Pope into a hate-object you know that president is desperate. Authoritarians require a constant stream of hate-objects to maintain power. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it.
