I mean, when has a big tech company ever really cared about the impact of their contracts? I feel like the endgame of capitalism is companies that will sell out the CEO's family for a juicy enough contract.
- giraffe_lady 1y agoI actually think this one is quite different. It's not unique but if you look at thiel's and karp's politics it's not a big stretch to guess this was the intended purpose of palantir from the beginning. I don't think they are merely amorally profit seeking, I believe this is an ideological goal they've been working towards for some time.
