”It sounds like writerly hyperbole to describe the UK as a vassal state, but I mean it in its most literal sense. It’s explicitly stated in the ur-text of Trump’s White House’s foreign policy, the National Security Strategy document, that US companies will be used as instruments of state power. There is no hidden agenda here: Trump has set it all out.”

The UK ‘Sovereign Cloud’ has been contracted out to Oracle, owned by another key Trump ally, Larry Ellison… And then there are deals with OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, Salesforce, Amazon, BlackRock, Nvidia and Scale AI.”

#starmer #keirstarmer #uk #unitedkingdom #usa #venezuela”…the blindness, ignorance and ongoing denial is the most dangerous thing about this moment. … We are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trump fascist project. … I’m not using the f-word lightly… But what is so dangerous right now is the assault on truth, on facts, on the evidence of our own eyes. What is happening right now in America is fascism. And we, the UK, are now up to our necks in it too.”

#trump #peterthiel #thiel #palantir #usa #unitedkingdom #uk #nato@janhoglund It is worse than that in way.
Palantirs software is nowhere near to what it claims to be. There is no real ontology.
In the U.S. Palantir is not popular at all anymore amongst larger clients.
My take is this. Palantir is a mediocre systems integrator that is being paid by governments to break the law datawise systematically.

#trump #peterthiel #thiel #palantir #usa #unitedkingdom #uk #nato@janhoglund I think this is right. I don't think in the UK we have any concept of the operation of companies like Palantir.
I only began to realise from an article on a baseball blog which is very much minority viewing here. -

#trump #peterthiel #thiel #palantir #usa #unitedkingdom #uk #nato@janhoglund I think it's also worth bearing in mind that Thiel may well be insane, or heading that way. Watch some interviews with him, and tell me if you think he's doing okay mentally and emotionally. I don't.
