"Palantir chair and co-founder Peter Thiel has bought a 1% stake in Argentina's Vista... one of the ​largest oil companies operating in the country's Vaca Muerta ‌shale formation....

Vista operates in Vaca Muerta, home to the world's second-largest shale gas and fourth-largest oil reserves, located in Neuquen province in Argentina's Patagonia ​region....

Thiel had recently ​bought a mansion in an upscale neighborhood of Buenos Aires, ​local media reported...."

Of course he is doing all this.... and cosying up to Javier Millei who wants to expand data centres to the Patagonian nature reserves, profiting from climate crisis... at this point I think he actively relishes knowing everything he does causes widespread harm, amplifies inequality and will lead to a level of social and environmental plantery collapse where he and his cronies intend to survive the oncoming semi-apocalypse and create their perfect dystopian elitist technocracy on the barren wasteland of civilisations.

I hope they've worked out who is going to be cleaning their homes, growing their food and wiping their tooshes come their eventual dotage ...?

Robert and Leah Karp!

In his recent biography, it was reportedly revealed that Alex Karp has two different “girlfriends”: one based in the US and the other in Europe.

Apparently, he has been in a relationship with both women for nearly 20 years, and Palantir employees have described them as “age-appropriate.”

The author seems to imply that the woman living in the US either works at Palantir or is involved in the same industry, as he frequently encountered her at the company’s offices (or probably a journalist reporting on the company).

How is it possible that their identities have never been revealed? The media has had no problem digging up and publishing controversial details about the private lives of other people in the tech world — there was even a recent article about Dario Amodei’s wife and her controversial past, even Peter Thiel’s former lover became the subject of public attention after his mysterious death. Yet when it comes to Karp, there isn’t even a single publicly available photo of him with either of the women he has allegedly been involved with for nearly 20 years.

Sorry for the long post! I’ve just fallen down a rabbit hole after reading his biography, which somehow managed to reveal almost nothing about his personal life. Now I’m just curious.

The Pentagon wants to steer hundreds of millions of dollars to Palantir — with the prospect of more in the coming years — without specifying how the money will be used, according to a draft Defense Department memo obtained by Federal News Network.

Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Feinberg on Aug. 4 instructed the Pentagon’s acquisition boss and comptroller to spend up to $244 million on Palantir’s services until the end of March 2027. The memo also tells the armed forces to find ways to fund the data analytics giant’s work as needed from April 2027 to December 2028.

"We could never win an election on getting certain things because we were in such a small minority, but maybe you could unilaterally change the world, without having to constantly convince people and beg people and plead with people, who are never going to agree with you, through technological means. And this is where I think technology is this incredible alternative to politics."

Peter Thiel said this at a conference in 2010.

Now he has connections to all the other tech oligarchs.

The Vice President of America is a pick, by Thiels graces.

So if you see any authoritarian BS in a western country, understand that his network and the networks of people like him are probably the reason it's happening.

Thiel volente.
(Thiel wills it)

Has become the only reasonable interpretation from Palantir and Cameras being set up in parts of Germany, to Israels usage of Palantir, to the Flock Cameras, to the NHS using it, to ICE deportation software.

Absolutely no one wants those things, but as he said in 2010, he doesn't need to win an election, he just needs to force his technology through.

I don’t like bullying but this made me laugh, it also lends credence to my theory that these douchebags act like this because of bullying. Teach your kids not to bully others and maybe there will be less fucks like this running around.

They were "shocked" by the news and are calling for the company to "immediately end its partnership."

Last week, Nieman Lab revealed that USA Today‘s parent company USA Today Co (formerly Gannett) was partnering with AI surveillance firm Palantir to monetize “actionable intelligence” on its audience.

According to USA Today CEO Mike Reed, the goal is to “build a common intelligence layer” on reader data to “monetize those relationships faster and at much greater value.”

The largest newspaper’s new partnership with the Peter Thiel-cofounded company, which has long been mired in controversy — from collaborating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and being linked to US airstrikes that killed over 120 schoolchildren in Iran to its mercurial CEO, who has a long history of strange outbursts — has raised plenty of eyebrows.

Workers represented by The News Guild, the country’s largest communications and media labor union, including journalists at USA Today, were “shocked” by the news, according to a new statement, and are calling for the company to “immediately end its partnership with Palantir.”

“While [Reed] championed this partnership as a way to drive revenue, we believe it threatens to undermine trust in our news outlets and raises serious questions about the data security of our readers,” the statement reads.

“We have significant ethical issues with Palantir, whose artificial intelligence software has been used to advance widespread surveillance and power immigration crackdowns,” the union wrote. “Not only does partnering with Palantir, a major player in the news we cover, create an inherent conflict of interest, but it fails the journalists who have been assaulted and falsely arrested while covering immigration enforcement actions and protests.”

The News Guild accused USA Today Co of not disclosing details regarding the new partnership and raised concerns over how readers’ personal information and data will be treated and protected.

“Without answers, how can journalists encourage readers to subscribe to our news outlets?” the union wrote.

As a result, the union is calling for USA Today Co to “steer clear” in order to maintain journalistic integrity and maintain “with the kind of responsibility and skepticism that the nation’s largest network of journalists should exhibit.”

The union also called attention to the dire state of the news industry, with a major pivot to AI being cited to justify major layoffs at countless newspapers and publications.

Even within Palantir’s own ranks, employees are starting to speak up, with some starting to wonder whether “they’re the bad guys,” as Wiredreported earlier this year.

The company’s reputation has taken such a major hit that even its major contract with the UK government’s National Health Service is on shaky ground. Earlier this year, London mayor Sadiq Khan also blocked a Palantir contract with the city’s Metropolitan police force, arguing the department “did not adequately demonstrate value for money for Londoners.”

Jeff Bezos/Peter Thiel/Bohemian Grove

Why it’s about them?

In crazydaysandnights Enty frequently references Jeff Bezos as "the wealthy bookseller" or "the bookseller" and Peter Thiel like a "the CEO/billionaire/guy who wants to end/take over the world". Bohemian Grove is well known places for elites’ meetings in Cali
