Dude, the US has been lagging behind the UK for the last decade. We voted for Brexit because of Cambridge Analytica, then you voted Trump for the first time because of Cambridge Analytica. We voted for Boris in 2019, you got Trump again in 2024. We're probably going to vote in Nigel Farage next and then the US will be like "Hold my beer!"
Palantir is just another symptom of this wider problem.
Ok, but hear me out: what if we got Nigel Farage in a 10 gallon hat with Liz Truss in a 10 gallon hat for VP.
It's the hair!
What a weird comment... Yeah guy, you did all the shitty things first I guess?
In fairness, Obama also used Cambridge Analytica. This is not a Right or Left thing. It is a politicians vs the people thing.
