Thanks for the link Steve. Appreciated.

Interesting choice for a company that just denounced 'regressive and harmful cultures'

Sponsoring an exclusionary event while they attack inclusivity frameworks is a purely regressive ideology—backing away from the broadness of inclusivity for the narrowness of exclusion

#Palantir #dei #inclusion

This is why I focus on the fiduciary realities: they can argue about 'woke' all day, but they can't argue with the 39% outperformance for inclusive teams.

DEI isn’t political, it’s just better business.

I mentioned in another post earlier today that rants against DEI don't erase facts: more inclusive exec teams outperform the market by 39%

Maybe Palantir should consider it

Palantir posts mini-manifesto denouncing inclusivity and ‘regressive’ cultures | TechCrunch Palantir's ideological bent has come under more scrutiny as it's worked with ICE and positioned itself as a defender of "the West."

Knowing a company like Palantir is against "inclusivity" makes advancing inclusion feel even better

mckinsey 2023 diversity matters even more report graphic - showing 39% more profitable performance by companies led by diverse executive teams, showing two metrics - women representation and ethnic diversity representation

Rants against DEI don't erase facts

✅ McKinsey—Diverse exec teams 39% outperform less inclusive teams

✅ Citi—Racism cost US economy $16T since 2000

Inclusion isn't 'Woke’—It's a market asset and fiduciary duty for long-term economic performance 📈

Federal judge unloads on ‘unserious’ RFK Jr., says anti-trans policy showed his ‘cruelty’ Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai vacated the “Kennedy Declaration,” finding it unlawfully attempted to override medical standards and restrict care for transgender youth.

Attacking trans people—even trans children—is among the most cruel of the many cruel things this US administration does

Federal judge: The abrupt threat of enforcement "caused chaos and terror for all those people and institutions of our great nation."

I agree. People like him doing such things should be challenged at every opportunity, and his complete lack of qualifications is a perfect focus for that.

advocate news headline 18 april 2026 saying Federal judge unloads on ‘unserious’ RFK Jr., says anti-trans policy showed his ‘cruelty’ Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai vacated the “Kennedy Declaration,” finding it unlawfully attempted to override medical standards and restrict care for transgender youth.

Incredibly sharp judicial rebuke:

“Unserious leaders are unsafe…(which) causes very real harm to very real people”

A Federal judge struck down anti-trans HHS policy restricting children’s rights to access medical care suitable to their needs

Parents of trans kids will be so relieved

When Target backtracked under pressure, they were boycotted

Costco instead voted to keep #DEI

Fifteen months on, their strong increase in sales during 2025 proved supporting #diversity isn't just the right thing to do—it's very good for business

This was interesting:

"Tisza MEPs have aligned with the European People's Party (EPP) approach, voting in favour of EU proposals that include the promotion of LGBTQ+ rights, which drew criticism from Fidesz."

Though, again, hoping at this stage, waiting to see what actually transpires

Agreed. That was why I was encouraged he chose that specific sentence in his victory speech:

"We want to make a country where no one is persecuted because they think differently or because someone loves in a different way to others"

Jury out, with fingers crossed.

Yes. I am relieved they got a supermajority to hopefully be able to start to unwind some of the tainting of institutions.

Of course Magyar deliberately made himself a small target during the campaign and so his real policies are unclear.

Hoping.

🤞

It will take time for LGBTQ+ rights to strengthen in Hungary. For over a decade Orbán modified civic institutions to entrench his power.

It's encouraging in this video to see so many people chose to support the LGBTQ+ community in Budapest in 2025.

Target keeps on losing customers—treat people badly, they leave

When Target fell into the 'optics' trap to 'obey', Costco doubled down on inclusive culture and saw record performance

Real-world proof #inclusion isn't a risk — it's a massive business advantage 📈
