Palantir posts mini-manifesto denouncing inclusivity and ‘regressive’ cultures

Palantir published a 22-point post based on CEO Alex Karp’s book, rejecting inclusivity-focused culture and framing Western civilization and AI weapons as strategic necessities.

The manifesto-like message was widely seen as a political statement defending military and national security technology.

The post drew backlash for its regressive cultural views, especially as Palantir faces scrutiny over work with ICE, DHS, and other government agencies.

It has intensified debate over how surveillance and defense tech companies shape policy on immigration enforcement and military AI.
