how can humans be said to be advancing when we allow clear liabilities like this person to flourish?
It’s him, it’s a threat, he’ll do it to recoup the money he’s paying in taxes.
Scumbag needs a lesson
Cool. Then we need that pronto. Isn’t that your company’s mission anyway?
Good. They are starting to threaten the people of the society in which they want to live. It won’t be long now until those people are forced to start thinking they are just a business, not saviours or overlords. Just selling shit to make a few bucks, nothing more, nothing less. Tick, tock…
I have not watched this interview, but I have never watched this man have a straight face, he is always high as fuck.
lmao why don’t you just audit everyone. lmao, it’s like they just want newer way to use drones to scan houses.
You all want it for the rich but what about you and your own unaccounted for items? What happens to some of you when your unaccounted items become objects that are supposed to reflect on your income, what then? repo or audit?
Lets think this through of what could happen to the common man. How many people are gonna get away with using gifting as an option and how many aren’t? How many of those that aren’t are going to be judged based on racial biases? How many times are they gonna use DHS alongside with this?
How much corruption with the technology will it take before we all start protests? I don’t see anything good from this.
I think that there needs to be people that can’t be bribed to do audits to rich people.
Nothing to see here, just planting new associations for the cultist, move along.
Mass surveillance = i don’t like that (bad)
Wealth tax = mass surveillance
Wealth tax = badSo we need to tax wealth so much that there is no money for surveillance. Got it.
Uhh that just gives the government more money for surveillance. You’ll get your surveillance either way, don’tcha worry.
You son of a bitch. I’m in.
What if we start having more Luigi’s in society?
Anything stopping you?
I don’t have a cancer diagnosis. Hit me up when I have nothing to lose.
So you, I and everyone else are actually super okay with all that happens as long as you have a mid tier Xbox to rent games and some plastic filled Cheerios to eat.
Swell. Hard to blame the billionaires for treating us like dirt.
People keep saying stuff like this, but it is a huge sacrifice and anyone who tries this now will be killed immediately, or end up prosecuted at best. Many still have loved ones to care for and a life to live. I don’t blame anyone for not going through with it.
Even if we “may not have much to lose soon,” there still may be other options before the people go this route. I personally at this time am not willing to go this route, especially since some progress is being made locally using other strategies.
Sooner or later well have nothing to lose.
Ohohohooo now I wanna increase it tenfold
That company is just a middle man with no technology of their own. The sooner everyone realizes this, the sooner nobody buys anything from them. Even military people realize they’re a scam grift.
Do you have any resources to share on this? I’d like to learn more.
The CEO of a… checks notes… mass surveillance company named after a skrying orb used by an evil sorcerer in arguably the most famous fantasy series of all time… warns that a… wealth tax on billionaires (like himself)… would cause… mass surveillance…?
Thanks for the fucking tip, Sauron.
On another tangentially related topic, Smaug wouldn’t even be in the top ten richest beings if he and his stolen wealth were real.
I, with a straight face, suggest we should fire the Palantir CEO out of a cannon off a tall cliff into the ocean. Preferably one with jagged rocks on the coastline.
Perhaps Kilauea? It has tall cliffs, is by the ocean, but has soft molten rocks.
how molten?
Did you ever play the floor is hot lava?
Personally I’d prefer to fire him into the sun. Now I’m sure there is no possible way to make a cannon with enough force to fire him into the sun without also immediately vaporizing him. But I say we give it a go anyway.
That’s such a waste of energy.
Fire him in to Saturn. Still extremely fatal but he gets a long ride to regret it and we have on fuel by using gravity assists.
But why would you expend so much resources on someone’s death when a falling blade is just so incredibly efficient
Shouldn’t the goal be efficiency here, not extravaganza?
Whoa whoa whoa.
We went through all this trouble making the CEO cannon. Let’s not stop at one.
