Palantir posts mini-manifesto denouncing inclusivity and ‘regressive’ cultures ↗
Palantir has published a statement denouncing inclusivity programs and characterizing them as regressive cultural trends. The company's ideological positioning has drawn increased scrutiny, particularly given its work with ICE and self-positioning as a defender of Western values. The statement reflects broader tensions around corporate culture and political alignment in the tech sector.
The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public.
Palantir sells operational software to defense, intelligence, immigration & police agencies. These 22 points aren't philosophy floating in space, they're the public ideology of a company whose revenue depends on the politics it's advocating.
