Are billionaires, basically bored twats? They’ve reached the high-score of life, grown bored with consumerism so have to come up with ridiculous narratives to make their own lives somewhat interesting?
In light of recent events, I feel like every billionaire should go seek therapy for their mental illnesses.

I don’t like it but I understand. We need to have our own companies who can do these things though

Reminder this is the guy who epstein emailed about Brexit:
Epstein emailing tech billionaire Peter Thiel, describing Brexit as “just the beginning”. Thiel responds: “Of what,” to which Epstein says: “Return to tribalism, counter to globalisation, new alliances.”
Makes me sad in history it will be our own stupidity for allowing external countries to interfere in our politics and systems that expose us to threats.

Aren’t they connected to Epstein as well? Man this government can’t avoid making clowns of themselves.

They’re world leaders in what they do – can’t complain about MOD delays and spiraling costs AND direct awards to market leaders – damned if you don’t / damned if you do

Okay, has anyone done a survey into which British defence contractors are also getting Palantir in create AI systems?
I know at least one, and doubt it’s limited to that one.
What products are they actually buying that nobody else can compete with? Seriously?

Palantir is so ahead of the competition, it isn’t really a competition.
If you want an effective system in this arena, you would be crazy to go anywhere else.

Looks like Israel won’t need any new epsteins to get sensitive information. We’re just giving it all away freely.

Palantir being awarded a contract I could deal with. Palantir plus a push for digital ID, (which looks like it’s going to backdoored by the social media ban for under 16s) is what worries me.

Pretty stringent requirements to get past Cabinet Office on a direct award.
Like shit tonnes of paper work with over 100 people reviewing.
Despite people on here chatting shite, civil servants don’t get kick backs from Palantir the commercial people want to do a tender.
Will be interesting to see the published justification/

Just goes to show the intelligence services are bought and completely rogue. What a fucking joke. Thiel and Karp should be in jail.

Most of the shit the crazies post about palantir is nonsense, but they are winning a few too many contracts.
They’re winning contracts against fully built systems, without any software built. Things they know nothing about. It’s odd.

I call BS.
Peter Thiel of Palantir: [https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/10/peter-thiel-lectures-antichrist](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/10/peter-thiel-lectures-antichrist)
