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.

    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.
