Palantir Issues Ominous Corporate Manifesto

Palantir sparked backlash after tweeting a 22-point summary of CEO Alex Karp’s 320-page book.

Critics said the summary endorsed national service, less inclusivity, and AI-led military power.

The reaction fed concerns that Palantir’s ideology aligns with surveillance, militarization, and anti-democratic politics.

The company’s government and defense work, including with the Pentagon, ICE, the Israeli military, and the UK government, has long drawn scrutiny.
