Like our aircraft carrier systems are, you know, we've become the Germans and the Japanese with their super high precision machines, which have to be serviced all the time.

When we were the nation of the B-17, which just rolls these fuckers off of the assembly line and can just pour them in to the war.

It doesn't matter if somebody's breaking the sound barrier or not.

Like we're good to go because we just have a ton of them.

Like I think we've inverted and become the highly inefficient system.

And Palantir, these guys, the manifesto,

It's like I said.

I agree with some of it.

I disagree with some of it.

But it really should... I don't know.

I mean, they see themselves as this philosopher kings who are building the tech and using and pushing this ideological agenda.

I think that's like a privatization of this type of debate, which should happen...

Not only in a public sphere, but by people who don't have a vested interest monetarily in what they're talking about.

So let's give good examples of the so-called intellectual titans and all of them.

I'll pick a leftist one, like Henry Wallace, right?

Henry Wallace, who was FDR's vice president.

He was somebody who was much more of a pacifist, but he didn't have a financial stake necessarily.

Or even some of the major hawks in the Second World War in the cabinet, they really believed this from an intellectual perspective.

They didn't have a financial interest necessarily.

In the war continuing, they just were statesmen, you know, great statesmen who had ideas about the world.
