These sorts of things don't end well, whether you're Jewish or Muslim or Latino.

It's just – yeah.

I wonder what he thinks about the brand concerns now.

Like you mentioned, obviously throughout the book there is –

has some bitterness a little bit in the like about you know the the perception of palantir and you know how like your shared alma mater isn't calling him to you know be a donor or whatever because they're worried about brand association that's only gotten worse yeah it's starting to come from inside the house like i noticed on theo vons i think a lot of his interview with jd vance was interviewed with some another right-wing figure he talks about how he's concerned about palantir well he was talking about with rogan

No, with Rogan.

It was with Rogan.

And to me, it's easy to say, oh, these effete liberal elites at the universities don't like us.

Screw them.

But now it seems like the concerns about the extent of the power, how they're working with the spy agencies, civil liberties are expanding within –

You know, folks that he might care about their feedback.

And I wonder if that's on the radar over there at all.

Oh, yeah, no, for sure.

In fact, a couple of months ago, The New York Times ran a story saying that Palantir was essentially helping the Trump administration build a master database with all our personal data.

And Palantir reacted with fury.

And a lot of that was driven by the fact that elements of the far right, notably Nick Fuentes, picked up on this.

And all of a sudden, Palantir was in the crosshairs of these MAGA adjacent people, specifically Fuentes and Palantir.

They were saying, why is Donald Trump, the ultimate victim of the deep state, getting in bed with the company that is the deep state and so forth?

So they are very attuned to that.

I think Karp and his colleagues are much less concerned about blowback from the Democrats if the Democrats get in power and part of this.
