    “I've been a Democrat my whole life. I grew up in a far-left environment. I know more about being a progressive than almost anybody on the planet, and I absolutely believe Palantir – all of our products are essentially progressive.”

    Ego is a hell of a drug. We’re all pointing and laughing, Alex.

    Prove skin in the game vis-à-vis the Trump administration when it counted and it was risky. Otherwise it’s all bullshit (in the technical sense).

    It is the same Karp that called pro-Palestinean anti genocide protests a "pagan religion".

      You see, as the only true Progressive Knower, he's the sole person able to come up with such insightful and absolutely true takes. The fact that other people don't agree just proves how right he is.
