Just when you think #Palantir can’t get more disgusting, the company’s snake head (PR crackheads included) does something even more appalling - and very revealing: It published a right wing and anti-democracy reeking ‚manifest‘.
Hundreds of scientists are running for office. We see the damage and danger to our democracy.

He manipulated the constitution, controlled every institution, and flooded the country with disinformation.
He is a failed enemy of democracy
