🔥 Europe is starting to push Palantir out. Things are looking rough for Palantir in Europe… …as they are increasingly seen as a danger to sovereignty with a high risk of structural lock-in and major ethical concerns. Please share.

Very good video here from

about the Euro. Reminding those worried about it that the UK can’t be forced to join the Euro and that it probably wouldn’t be in the EUs interest to do so anyway. Of course this all presupposes that our government won’t want to swap £ for €.

It’s very hard to escape the conclusion that these people don’t have a problem with violence against women or child abuse, per se. They’re just against “braaahn people touching aaahr women and kids”, precisely because they see them as THEIRS to assault and abuse…
