Book quote:
"Tech fascism is the product of a venture capital system that has run out of unicorns and must now hunt Antichrists to meet its unquenchable thirst for acceleration."

At 27 pages into Gil Durán’s new book “The Nerd Reich” I came full stop at this sentence:
“As many political schools of thought do, these technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect.”
Simply and elegantly stated. The various techno-optimistic philosophies running around Silicon Valley and the venture capital community are toxic and inhumane. We are desperately in need of a new tech manifesto that puts human wellbeing, acceptance, compassion and love as first principals. Why do we write code if not for this? The current direction of technology leadership has taken a wrong turn onto a dark and destructive path. This needs to change.
This is a great book so far. Highly recommend it.

If you are interested in politics, regardless if #US based or not, I think this interview with a #SiliconValley insider about his book #TheNerdReich is **the** weekend must-watch.
It describes how the #TechBro's of #PeterThiel et al have been using [Technofeudalism] and $$$ to materialize a dystopian #NeoFascist world: #TechFascism.

I find it hard to tell people how deranged the techbro kingpins have become, because they find it too hard to believe. These guys aren‘t just a bit weird. They‘re monkeyfuck insane, in the grip of whacked-out sci-fi cults.
Not that you‘ll understand it, but Gil Durán‘s “The Nerd Reich“ might help you get your head around it

‘If we don’t fight back, we don’t have a future’: the journalist taking on the ‘tech fascists’ of Silicon Valley

In a review of the book ‘The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and the War on Democracy’ by Gil Durán I read about Peter Thiel as a central figure.
I am wondering about Apple. The company did opportunistically try to please the DOFTUS.
But is the top of the organisation also ideologically linked in any way to the men of the Peter Thiel group? Or do they ‘Think Different’?
Would be nice if Apple is the odd one. There are still a lot of other objections remaining - about the manufacturing practices, tax evasion, market dominance - but those could be disconnected.

"As Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and their peers have grown richer and more influential, Gil Durán argues they have all but abandoned democracy – and found the perfect government to enable them"

Autor #GilDuran wird bei #Twitter gesperrt, nachdem er das militaristische, illiberale, techno-nationalistische und autoritäre Manifesto von #Palantir als #faschistisch bezeichnet.
Lasst es mich so formulieren: Ich fühle mich hier sehr wohl im #Fediverse.

@dangillmor They did #GilDuran a favor. Bizarre that any media is still on X.
