As The World Burns, Elites Gather At Bilderberg To Talk Champagne Shortages and AI Ethics

From June 12 to June 15, notable entrepreneurs and figures in business met in Sweden at the luxurious Grand hotel. CEOS from the likes Palantir, Thales, and Anduril were in attendance, along with tech billionaires – as well as the king of the Netherlands.
Topics at this year’s Bilderberg included the “Middle East”, the rising of an “authoritarian axis”, the “US economy”, and China. Though their name doesn’t appear on the agenda, China is still discussed and weaves through many of the topics such as geopolitics and defense.
Nadia Schadlow, a former deputy US national security adviser, had this to say of America’s biggest threats:
An authoritarian axis is rapidly coalescing around China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, disrupting the belief that an international community has taken shape in the aftermath of the cold war.
As the Bilderberg conference operates under Chatham House Rule, it swears participants to secrecy and disallows them from disclosing any identities or affiliations of any speakers.
However, the key topics of discussion were announced on the Bilderberg website before the meeting. Along with the Middle East, an authoritarian axis rising, and the US economy – other topics included Ukraine, Europe, migration, and AI.
Unsurprisingly absent from mainstream media headlines, Bilderberg amasses a predictable mix of global elites – intelligence chiefs, bankers, defense contractors, even European prime ministers – to intermingle and tackle the problems facing the world… or plot world domination.
The timing for Palantir, however, is suspect. After more than $113 million in federal contracts and a record-setting surge in the megacorp’s stock, Palantir has become the central nervous system in the architecture of Western power.
Representatives from the CIA, NATO, and Goldman Sachs joined forces at Bilderberg with Anduril, Thales, and Palantir to talk on the agenda of “AI, Warfare, Geopolitical Realignment, China, and the Social Contract”.
The social contract, a term once debated by philosophers, is now simply fodder for boardrooms guarded by armed security. If this doesn’t serve as the perfect microcosm of modern American culture, I don’t know what would.
