Make sure the building’s empty and you’re fine.
I don't think that if I blew up your home while you and your loved ones were out that you would consider this to be a peaceful act merely because no one you cared about was physically harmed.
Nothing Palantir does has peace in mind. And they for damn sure aren't someone's home. Get a grip.
So, just to be clear, you are claiming that blowing up Palantir would be an inherently peaceful act?
What a dumbass take, are you trying to be obtuse? Who would make an argument that exploding anything is peaceful?
I'm saying "peace" is not the ultimate moral value you seem to think it is. Fuck being peaceful towards those who want the very worst for us. There's no moral high ground in peacefully letting fascists do fascism, actually the morality of the situation points in the exact opposite direction. I'm guessing you don't actually know very much about Palantir.
You, by posting a comment disagreeing with my original comment pointing out demolition crosses the line into not being peaceful.
For your own sake, I strongly recommend forgetting about this thread
I genuinely appreciate your concern, but you do not have to worry about me. 😀
Actually I criticized your comparison to blowing up the place a family lives, and I also said your argument is unserious, and I also implied that the way that company behaves and its intentions change the calculations, fundamentally, about the value of peace. But of course you're not engaging with any of that, just making bad faith takes that deliberately miss the point.
Later dork.
I mean, if you are not going to engage with the things I actually said, then there is only so much I can in response. 😃
Enjoy your "later dork" Parthian shot.
