Palantir worked for the Clinton Foundation.

For at least several years and definitely before Trump was on the map politically.

The Podesta Emails literally have Alex Karp, the CEO, paying 100k to talk to Bill Clinton.

So he plays both sides then. You haven't invalidated any argument.


I think Alex Karp, much like Thiel's friend Sam Altman, is very much his own man. If they were automatons they wouldn't be in the position they're in.

99% of Silicon Valley disagrees with Thiel, the simplest explanation is that Karp is from that group also.

The alternative explanation appears to be Karp and Thiel conspired to make Trump US President in 2012.

I mean wow. Just wow.


Most powerful, wealthy interests support both sides. The only thing truely frightening for the status quo is probably someone like Bernie Sanders being in the white house. Dow Jones would not be popping up if that was the case.
