Theil ryhmes w/evil

How is this possible in anything but a fascist state.

Guilt before innocence.

What a disaster amerika has become

Palantir, a surveillance and data mining company founded by right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel, is best known for being a contractor for Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, other state and federal agencies, and corporations like JP Morgan and Airbus. The company created ICE’s Investigative Case Management system, which catalogs migrants in U.S. detention, which helps to build records that can be used against migrants in court.

As reported by Bloomberg last year, the police departments for New York, New Orleans, Chicago, and Los Angeles also use Palantir’s software to create “digital dragnets” of individual people in an attempt to predict crime before it happens.

I thought people were free to be people and live life w/out being survielled
this assumes guilt before innocence.

“Everything we do starts with a subject that’s engaged in some sort of illegal activity or potentially something that’s perceived as being illegal,” the spokesperson said.

Of course mister perfect Theil never does anything illegal.

@lotlizard but on another note, it's difficult to blend in
when a cop pulls you over.

Since 2015, mass shooters have killed 339 people in the U.S., while police have used guns to take 4,355 lives.

the police state is upon us.

I never knew that the term "Never Again" only pertained to
those born Jewish

now it's someone who Jews don't like"

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

My employer was competing with Palantir for employees. They bragged about the filet mignon in the cafeteria. We bragged about letting them keep their souls...

It is. But I am in Seattle, which hasn’t gone quite that far yet - and at the time it was a lot better.
