The Configuration</h2> <p>Two movements have captured the executive branch of the United States. They share a vehicle, the Republican Party. They share an enemy, the procedural friction of liberal democratic governance. They do not share a vision of the future.</p> <p>The first is the techno-capital wing. Its ideologues are Nick Land, Curtis Yarvin, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen. Its instruments are Palantir, Anduril, Andreessen Horowitz, the now-defunct Department of Government Efficiency, the Title 50 contractor archipelago. Its mass base does not exist. Its theory of human meaning is that meaning is to be extracted from the human and relocated to the machine.</p> https://blog.wntrdev.ca/posts/palantir/ Wed, 29 Apr 2026 17:39:26 -0400 https://blog.wntrdev.ca/posts/palantir/ <h1 id="accelerationist-ceos-and-the-tech-state-corporate-fusion">Accelerationist CEOs and the tech-state-corporate fusion</h1> <p><strong>Previously published on LinkedIn</strong><br> <strong>April 29, 2026</strong></p> <hr> <p>Palantir&rsquo;s 22-point manifesto is being debated as either technofascism or corporate cringe. Both readings miss what the document actually does.</p> <p>Is it fascist? Yes, on Griffin&rsquo;s palingenetic criterion, Paxton&rsquo;s mobilizing-passions frame, and most of Eco&rsquo;s Ur-Fascism checklist. Axis rehabilitation is an unusually explicit tell. The mass-movement base and the Führerprinzip are absent, which is why technofascism, or neoreactionary techno-imperialism, tracks better than 1933 analogies. The intellectual lineage clearly runs Schmitt to Strauss to Thiel to Yarvin.</p>
