  Palantir

    A weird military contractor with one of the most perculiar internet cult followings of any company (seriously - if you thought Tesla fans were a bit much, check out the Palantir crowd) who believe it's the next big thing in tech despite consistently performing ... okay. Big overlap with the WSB-alike social media investment community.

      The F-35 performs … okay. That doesn’t mean I would want to go up against it in a fight

        Nobody pretends Lockheed Martin is the next Tesla and Nvidia. Palantir fans do.

        I wouldn't want to go up against a Spitfire, but donating some to Ukraine would probably be considered rude rather than helpful. (Although, given how Russia is doing, I wouldn't be surprised if a Spitfire won a few battles…)

        It's SAP-style software with a slightly prettier UI, not a cool jetfighter. Your analogy was a perfect example, though.
