Past proves future-this kind of stuff has been going on forever. When someone gets the desire to have power, they will do terrible things to get it, terrible things to keep it, and terrible things with it. Modern man is no different than ancient man. Just because people wear suits now does not mean that they are advanced beyond the ancients who had no respect for life, killed without a second thought, treated women and children as sex objects, traded in human flesh, worshipped idols in sickening ways, and anything else you hear the elites accused of doing today.

Agree, but apparently Palantir takes it to another level. It is directing actions to be taken, or resolution of conflict. So apparently, we are now getting into a huge “ethics” and moral”dilemma unlike before. Its one thing to predict, another to take “action” on something that has not occurred. Very futuristic for us.

So, so true. We [the public] think the human condition has adavnced past that, we are different now. The only difference is technology is better at reliably delivering bread and circuses. Human nature, denial of God, and ambition are unchanged, and just as dirty and ruthless as ever.
