SALT tax cap increase is bullshit. The deduction should be zero.

Just give boomers even more handouts with an increased standard deduction that only applies to olds.

Basically, we are just adding even more stupid tax carveouts when we should be eliminating carveouts and lowering the overall rates.

-- they did nothing with cans and SBRs / NFA deregulation

-- they didn't kick illegals off entitlements

-- they cut entitlements in such a small amount that it literally won't do anything about the debt

In short, other than ICE funding, they didn't do fucking shit, and each GOP member should be hanged

Btw most of the immigration enforcement funding will flow to palantir to fuck white Americans too

How is Lockheed building Echelon any different than Palantir getting this contract? Your argument is the vendor's other contracted products being low-scope and practical from the perspective of an infantryman? What would you have said about Lockheed getting the Echelon contract back in the 80s?

My point is that the vendor itself does not pose an enormous threat, and that fear-mongering about it is silly when if a threat exists, it exists in the bureaucrats who would like to wield whatever tools are built. If Palantir doesn't build them, it will be open AI, or some other silicon valley machine learning monkeys. The tools for technostatism will be built, the brand name in the readme matters fairly little. And if they will be built, I'm happy that they will be used for immigration enforcement.

I bring up the low scope because it's illustrative of the fact that they are building literally everything they can. They want to be indispensable to the government, by building every piece of software that handles classified information. They're doing this because they want to make billions of dollars. There's not some great malevolence at work here, they are driven by a profit motive to fill an extraordinarily lucrative niche.

My point is that Palantir is a profit driven, ideologically agnostic programming company, and they are fairly good at what they do. Technostatism is certainly plenty concerning, but fear-mongering about Palantir specifically is sort of silly because they don't have any specific leftist drive, they'll build technosatan for anyone who pays them. And so would anyone else in silicon valley, for the amount of money that the government will pay. Worrying about one company specifically here is missing the issue that The government has infinite money that it will pay to be able to access every piece of information in the world, and they're probably going to be successful in doing this. If Palantir didn't exist, this would still happen. All of the solutions for this are analog, and probably none of them will ever happen. If technosatan is to exist, I would rather it be our guys driving it, and using it to deport illegals.

-- for you, there is no such thing as a good outcome. Everything will always end up in the worst possible situation, and any contraindication is either a ruse or "naive" -- no matter how specious the foundation for your worst case scenario doomer blackpill alternative.

-- technosatan is already here, and it seems incredibly naive to think that this will be the Trojan horse when the government has been able to see virtually anything digital they want for years -- but now that intelligence tools are being used to deport illegals, THIS is the final straw to technotyranny? That somehow didn't happen under Obamiden? Lol sure

-- Your view of lib omnipotence is incredibly naive, given the incompetence we've seen over the past several years. I don't know how you lived through COVID and then didn't come away thinking that at least our enemies are morons.

-- you will blackpill about demographics until we do something about it (albeit very late), and then you'll blackpill about any action to fix the problem. What, exactly, do you think the solution is for any of the problems we face? Do you have any prescriptions? Because lying down and dying of unhappiness seems to be the only thing I have ever gotten from a Consuela politics poast. What am I missing here? What does winning look like to you? Because dumping a bunch of resources into deporting 100 million browns seems like a good fucking start. I'm not at all happy with the traitorous kike snakes in the GOP failing to deliver a bunch of stuff they say they all want, but blackpilling about immigration enforcement, of all things, is asinine.

-- The only thing your blackpill doomerism has ever accomplished is demoralization. If I were going to design a fed op poaster, he would sound nearly identical to you. I don't think you are one, I just think that your poasting accomplishes the same thing.

yes, what i call the digital panopticon is mostly in place now and will be solidified further in the next couple of years. nothing will stop it, imo, but neither do I have to accept the pro/con dialectic being imposed on every issue - including the immigration issue.

I would prefer tens of millions of illegals be deported. It isn't going to happen and selling false hopium does a disservice to yourself and anyone you interact with. the framework instead will help serve as political justification for the final touches of the panopticon. What you call the "blackpill" is simply base reality at this point.

lastly, in terms of what positive vision I offer: I think politics is downstream from culture which is downstream from metaphysics. A re-enchantment of the world and a transvaluation of values are needed before any fundamental political or culture change is possible. I am currently deep in this process myself through the Jungian individuation process, which is a very scary and alone process, but it is entirely changing my worldview toward one of re-enchantment -- not re-enchantment in a dead letter sense, but in a lived reality sense.
