Palantir's 22-Point Manifesto, Part One

from The Palantir Manifesto & My Manifesto | The Tim Dillon Show #493 · #493

17 min

Tim introduces Palantir's new manifesto, mocking Alex Karp's appearance and going point by point through early sections about Silicon Valley's "moral debt," rebelling against the "tyranny of the apps," hard power replacing soft power, and a call for a military draft; he frames Palantir as declaring itself the real government.

In this bit19 moments
  • Tim introduces Palantir's 22-point manifesto as a blueprint for the future.
  • Palantir CEO Alex Karp's appearance matches what you'd expect from someone planning world domination.
  • Palantir's manifesto calls for a draft, which is odd for a defense tech company in a historically draft-free country.
  • Palantir predicts multiple front wars and plans to build autonomous drone death machines while eliminating civil liberties.
  • Toddlers and Gen Z are now watching this show, making parents upset Tim talks about war and dystopian futures.
  • Tim gives Palantir the benefit of the doubt despite one founder being obsessed with Satan and the other predicting total war.
  • Criticism of Trump by Rogan and Carlson provokes rage, but democracies require people to speak out against their leaders.
  • Tucker Carlson has a political vision for the country and criticizes Trump when he deviates from it, which is fair.
  • Saying you can't criticize someone you supported is psychotic and prevents parties from winning elections.
  • Republicans attack people who never voted for them and must stop being insufferable if they want to win.
  • If Democrats lose the next election after this year and a half, they should give up; winning requires not being insufferable.
  • To avoid a Christian nationalist country, the left needs to take power by dropping anger and constant enemy-making.
  • David Graham at the Atlantic argues Tucker should never be taken seriously for criticizing Trump, but Graham's owner is linked to Ghislaine Maxwell.
  • Lauren Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs's widow, owns the Atlantic and was photographed with Ghislaine Maxwell.
  • Democrats shouldn't nominate someone who can't talk three months before the election after concealing a president's mental health.
  • Biden and Harris gave Israel billions of dollars, so it's unclear whether Kamala would have handled the situation differently.
  • Democrats concealed Biden's state to voters, then blamed the election loss on five people instead of examining their own strategy.
  • Child sex changes are wildly unpopular, yet Democrats only discuss healthcare in the context of trans kids, not general medical access.
  • Blaming Andrew Schultz for the Democratic loss seems psychotic, but people believe what they want to believe.
