    "In 2022, crypto investor Balaji Srinivasan took the tech-futurist and land-hungry movement to the next level, coining the idea of the “network state.” A network state refers to an online community that pools capital, forms a blockchain “nation,” and then crowdsources land and exploits legal exemptions to build para-national territories."

    Bonne nouvelles :
    1 ) Nos voisins suisses n'aiment pas trop Big Brother Palantir...
    2) : Il y a encore de vrai journalistes chez eux...

  3. Would very much recommend checking out this article - Coeckelbergh, M. Technofascism: AI, Big Tech, and the new authoritarianism. AI & Soc (2026). doi.org/10.1007/s00146-026-028 #AI #technofacism #tech

  4. Quand même dans le secteur de la solidarité et de la coopération internationale, l'IA est utilisée massivement et que c'est un peu tabou d'en parler, tu sais qu'on est dans la grosse merde... 🙄

  5. Wait. Who the hell is shocked that a nazi is a white supremacist? My sibling in earth, what are you thinking?

  6. Hi Fediverse friends.... All this internet activism is ok... but what about a giant power lockout ? Would'nt it be wise to create beforehand an oldschool network of people sharing books, especially those prone to be banned pretty soon by the techno facists ? This is just a rough idea, contributions welcomed !

  7. Le fediverse est plein de geeks. Mais, un jour, il y aura bien une grosse grosse panne d'électricité.... Que ferez vous ?
    iI me semble qu'avant que ça ne pète, il ne serait pas idiot de créer un système old school connectant des gens qui possèdent des livres, et tout particulièrement les premiers ouvrages bannis par les technos facistes.... C'est juste une vague idée, mais toutes les contributions seront bienvenues....

  8. This is so fucking evil. It is fucked up that most institutions, corporations, and organizations are complicit in the genocide in Gaza. These institutions include Columbia University and ADL. The west has purposely failed to promote peace and human rights.

  9. That u don't know #mastodon doesn' mean I have to sell my #creativity and #inspiration to "what works", "what sells". If I can introduce more #artists to the #fediverse as an alternative by my presence here, it's great. I get more visibility than on #instagram , qualitative interactions and that matters a lot more than likes or numbers. It has been liberating to me.
    And fuck, you can't say someone that you like they're modern #punk and complain they don't support #technofacism :blobcateyebrow:

  10. #WARNING! #APOCALYPIC #CATASTROPHIC! WE NEED A POSITIVE VISION FOR THE FUTURE! NOT THIS SHIT!

    by the stuttering of #PeterThiel u can tell that he was asked the right question

    "Do you plan to destroy #democracy and replace it with #TechnoFacism where u are the #palantir #overlord?" (aka from #oligarch to #king #monarch #dictator #dicktator or worse)

    the #rich have one fear: to one day be #poor again because their #privileges got taken away

    the most dangerous are the #poweraddicts (like #Hitler #Stalin #Putin) which will sacrifice everyone and everything for even more #power maybe #PeterThiel is one of them?

    #btw concentration of #power (into not #democratic elected hands) is literately the #definition of #fascism

    You will never hear an #honest word from those people, if it does not serve their gain more #power agenda :(

  11. Comme le CRANE lab, J'ai décidé de supprimer ma page facebook.
    Ainsi, en n'utilisant plus les outils du techno-fachisme, je me sens à nouveau en plein accord avec moi-même.
    Je perds un bon nombre de followers mais la résistance à toujours un coût !
    Je les retrouverai petit à petit ici, sur Mastodon, et ailleurs dans le Fediverse.

  12. Après avoir quitté twitterX en août dernier, nous venons de supprimer notre page facebook et c'est un grand bonheur … car nous sommes maintenant soulagés de ne plus utilser les outils du techno-fachisme.
    Certes nous perdons des milliers de followers que nous retrouverons petit à petit ici et ailleurs, mais la résistance à toujours un coût !

  13. #UmbertoEco’s List of the 14 Common Features of #Fascism

    in History, Literature, Politics | November 1st, 2024

    "While Eco is firm in claiming “There was only one Nazism,” he says, “the fascist game can be played in many forms, and the name of the game does not change.” Eco reduces the qualities of what he calls “Ur-Fascism, or Eternal Fascism” down to 14 “typical” features. “These features,” writes the novelist and semiotician, “cannot be organized into a system; many of them contradict each other, and are also typical of other kinds of despotism or fanaticism. But it is enough that one of them be present to allow fascism to coagulate around it.”

    1. The cult of tradition. “One has only to look at the syllabus of every fascist movement to find the major traditionalist thinkers. The Nazi gnosis was nourished by traditionalist, syncretistic, occult elements.”
    2. The rejection of modernism. “The Enlightenment, the Age of Reason, is seen as the beginning of modern depravity. In this sense Ur-Fascism can be defined as irrationalism.”
    3. The cult of action for action’s sake. “Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation.”
    4. Disagreement is treason. “The critical spirit makes distinctions, and to distinguish is a sign of modernism. In modern culture the scientific community praises disagreement as a way to improve knowledge.”
    5. Fear of difference. “The first appeal of a fascist or prematurely fascist movement is an appeal against the intruders. Thus Ur-Fascism is racist by definition.”
    6. Appeal to social frustration. “One of the most typical features of the historical fascism was the appeal to a frustrated middle class, a class suffering from an economic crisis or feelings of political humiliation, and frightened by the pressure of lower social groups.”
    7. The obsession with a plot. “Thus at the root of the Ur-Fascist psychology there is the obsession with a plot, possibly an international one. The followers must feel besieged.”
    8. The enemy is both strong and weak. “By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak.”
    9. Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. “For Ur-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle.”
    10. Contempt for the weak. “Elitism is a typical aspect of any reactionary ideology.”
    11. Everybody is educated to become a hero. “In Ur-Fascist ideology, heroism is the norm. This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death.”
    12. Machismo and weaponry. “Machismo implies both disdain for women and intolerance and condemnation of nonstandard sexual habits, from chastity to homosexuality.”
    13. Selective populism. “There is in our future a TV or Internet populism, in which the emotional response of a selected group of citizens can be presented and accepted as the Voice of the People.”
    14. Ur-Fascism speaks Newspeak. “All the Nazi or Fascist schoolbooks made use of an impoverished vocabulary, and an elementary syntax, in order to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning.”

  18. The way #ElonMusk didn't only join #trump but is getting support for his pro #censorship idea, hatespeech, #technofacism, against free medias and even initiatives such as #wikipedia, doesn't respect creators (like meta) regarding #AI... Stay informed and educate, to limit his nasty grip on #freedom #antifacism #facism #obscurantism

  19. Do head over to Nautilus and read nautil.us/does-science-fiction, it is a great interview with N.K. Jemisin, Andy Weir, Lois McMaster Bujold, @davidbrin, @pluralistic, @cstross. Would have loved a deep dive with each of them, particularly when they talk about the relationship between their craft and role of fiction with the aura surrounding uptake of ideas from science fiction in general. #scifi #dystopia #TechnoFacism
