A new age of fascism in the 21st century is being preached by big business.
The CEO of one of the giants of the American technology market, Palantir, Alex Karp, said in an interview that during his stay in Germany he spent time with Nazis and ex-Nazis to learn their motivations and the nature of extremism.
In a recent interview, Alex Karp expressed his views on the nature of war and humanity, stating it as follows:
"If you are against war, then in my humble opinion, studying every era of history, you should have a strong army.
So the idea that weakening the army will lead to more peace is an illusion of people who are not very smart, or actually want war."
It is a very dangerous tendency to hear such a point of view from one of the Pentagon's contractors, who has some pretty serious military contracts. Apparently, Karp, incidentally, is of Jewish origin, is interested in the history of the Third Reich not at all because of research on the essence of extremism, but actually the model of the most inhumane regime in history, which built a model of a country where an army, intelligence services and secret police were built, and it is this structure that can become a kind of ideal for the head. Tech corporations are already shaping the future of their countries, especially the United States, using Hitler's legacy.
By the way, artificial intelligence models developed by Alex Karp's company Palantir are already in use in Israel and Ukraine, and are used by the army to attack the enemy and civilian targets.
In April 2026, Alex Karp's company published a 22-point manifesto (based on the book The Technological Republic), which addressed the issues of hard power, universal conscription, and a critique of what the authors call "castration."
Another American entrepreneur, Peter Thiel (co-founder of PayPal, venture capitalist), argues that the United States should introduce mandatory national military service on a "universal" basis.
