In this blockbuster episode of Rattling the Bars, Mansa Musa—a former Black Panther and political prisoner in the US—speaks with Palestinian political prisoner Mahmoud al-Arda after his release from Israeli prison.

Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. They’re so arrogant and self-confident they don’t seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed.

We must get rid of Palantir altogether.
