Don't bother. Hypocrisy is the gas, and cognitive dissonance the oil that power Conservatism.
And racism, anger and fear are the highly reactive napalm that drives their dumpster fire of a train wreck
Don't be afraid of them. Say it all loudly and often.
Donald Trump is a traitor who should have been hung years ago. Elon Musk is a Nazi who should be beaten to death in the streets. Palantir should be dismantled for supporting and enabling fascism around the world. All billionaires should be publicly executed for crimes against humanity. The current American government is an enemy of freedom and democracy around the globe and should be overthrown by force if peaceful means are no longer possible, which looks more and more each day to be an accurate assessment of the situation.
Fear will not silence us. We have more power than they ever will. All we have to do is decide to use it.
Palantir should be dismantled for supporting and enabling fascism
Unfortunately that has never happened. In fact, a lot of big name companies made a fortune exactly due to their collaboration:
We don't have to repeat the mistakes of the past.
Let's find every palantir employee, and make sure they each get their very own wall.
it wasn't a mistake then and it won't be one this time
I would argue letting the seeds of fascism remain in the world, including the power structures that made those decisions.
Just because it hasn't happened before does not mean it can't happen in the future.
it's okay guys! The NRA said they were here to prevent this sort of thing!
We're in goooood hands!
Oh yea they will rise up but they will stand on the side of tyranny.
I didn’t remember emigrating to China.
Damn, this dude has to pick the shittiest aspects of every other country and implement them. But even the shitty countries have socialized health care and things like paid maternal leave. Does he pick those features? Of course not.
Nobody here in China knows wtf a social credit score is. Also the healthcare is less socialized than your average European country, but they do take measures to keep costs down.
boomers will be dead and gone and not have to deal with it
classic fucking boomers
Specter of death, can we speed this along already?
Hi, im potential threat #3EF728.
Anyone who would use this metric to categorize me in the first place is inherently a threat to me.
Figure that one out.
Hello, potential threat CSS lime green
Yeah. You're not rich so you don't matter.
Ok, but you dont need a database to see my signature look features velcro addias sandals and a t-shirt with a hole in the pit.

Between this and the ICE contractor ShadowDragon using their platform SocialNet to track "potential threats" it's beginning to paint a grim picture.
How does it work? If people post from a anonymous accounts
I don't know a lot but I made a comment about it before that I share here with some basic info and further reading. I'll post it here.
~~===~~
TL;DR:
ICE contractor ShadowDragon uses their platform SocialNet to map individuals' digital footprints, personal data and connections across 200+ sites such as OnlyFans, WhatsApp, Roblox and Duolingo.
ShadowDragon claims it accesses data in real-time without storing it, sidestepping some accountability.
ICE and other agencies, including the DEA and State Department, use SocialNet for investigations, citing its utility in tracking criminal activity, despite their unwillingness to prove that criminality in court.

Make America North Korea Again!
Isn’t this essentially the plot to Winter Soldier?
And Minority Report.
next up credit scores based on Palantir db.
Isn't that what credit score already is?
Just expand that, maybe with generative AI since the accuracy doesn't matter.

So basically the Americans get Chinese-Style authoritarianism, but without the prosperity
Every accusation is projection once again
Hey, we had a whole Orville episode on how this was a shit plan. The US Media trashed China for this plan.
Hey Iran, if you're listening, and you're looking for a soft target to add to your retaliation list for the recent attack...well while you probably can't break into the White House, something tells me Palantir's offices are a lot less heavily defended...They also do a lot of intelligence work, so they're a valid military target.
This is a beauracracy to purge Americans.
What Chinese social credit score?

For downvoters: China has no global "social credit system". There was one medium-small city that implemented what we imagine for a bit (though with the harshest punishments being things like inability to purchase luxury train tickets, not imprisonment like the propaganda says), but abandoned the project. There is a "social credit" or "public trust" system that has pretty wide adoption, but in almost diametric opposition to the Western propaganda, it's not for keeping tabs on citizens, but rather government officials and contractors, to ensure interagency knowledge of any impropriety. I.E. precisely the sort of system that would help prevent a cadre of hacks and conmen from infiltrating government agencies and abusing them for personal gain.
