You say it’s capitalism… But I say it’s #copyright.
Copyright is the kingpin all of this rentier capitalism hangs on.
Illegal #repair, monopolies, #technofeudalism, all of it.
The new tech ’nobility’ that controls the new digital land, controls it through copyright.
With #AI and artists, don’t side with copyright, side with the people’s right to use the #devices they own, how they want to.
They already showed they don’t care for your copyright. Don’t go begging.. !

@wackJackle
From my PoV, #TechnoFeudalism and #TechnoFascism are two distinct but heavily overlapping concepts.
Techno-feudalism focuses on how the economy works - rent based vs. production based. Techno-fascism focuses on power / politics. Obviously, they are heavily interlinked and dependent on each other (currently). -

WIRED: Leak Exposes Members of Peter Thiel’s Secretive ‘Dialog’ Society;
More than 200 of the world's elites registered for a retreat whose agenda runs from panels on cult-building and sex to prepping for World War III. An associated app offers matchmaking. https://www.wired.com/story/leak-exposes-members-of-peter-thiels-secretive-dialog-society/

If the economic system continues on its current path, human development will not be valued; the small elite that can get a living doing science—supervising the machines—will shrink ever further. The rest will simply become reverse centaurs working for the machines and their techno-feudalist overlords. Bags of flesh that can do what the machines cannot, just like an #Amazon driver.

In #technofeudalism and #antihumanism:
The narrative of #AI's “inevitability” is a tactic used by tech companies to discourage resistance and encourage compliance.
[…] When tech boosters want to demonise resistance, they invoke the luddites. By their telling, the luddites were primitive idiots, who smashed machines they were too stupid to understand. History though, tells a different story. As recounted by Brian Merchant’s sublime work Blood in the Machine, luddites were skilled artisans, fighting for their way of life against the “satanic mills” – textile sweatshops powered by child semi-slaves. Forbidden from unionising, luddites smashed machines as a protest tactic. And they did not lose to the inevitable march of progress. They lost to physical force. The government called in troops, and the luddites were either executed or shipped to penal colonies in Australia.

Neo-feudalism is what killed capitalism. You as the worker barely have any power in the corporate world. Employers can abuse the shit out of you. Without labor unions, corporations have too much power over you.

Absolutely! And thanks for walking the talk so thoughtfully, this so resonates & yet it's so unusual I hardly have words to think about it, which is why your example is so valuable: "« In this age of #technofeudalism every writer who covers technology - especially resistance to #BigTech - should disclose their tech stack. Here's mine »"
Ah... Leading by example!
Also... I finally understand the concept of 'tech stack'! Thanks again! 🙏 -

Oh, look! Another riveting dissertation on "Techno-Feudalism" 🏰🤖, written by someone who thinks their bookshelf is more important than actual content 📚🧐. Spoiler alert: the article is about as enlightening as a year-end quote calendar. 🙄✨

Just going to hypothesize something here... for posterity and accountability to weird strategic thoughts I have when I try to channel this Musk creep. The tech-bro's have already taken over. That is why they are now sending the DOGE teams with armed escorts and guns to smash small offices of the government. Trump is the vindictive figurehead. It's the tech lords running the show, and they're going to do a deal with China to get rid of Putin.
🇨🇳 🇺🇸 🔀 🇷🇺
I'm open to the possibility of something beyond shocking happening. There have already been rumors of revaluing the gold at Fort Knox, restructuring the debt, a national cryptocurrency...
What about, a merger / joint venture with China and the US becomes a total one-party state, USA Inc. They'll leave the illusion of elections, and the Dems will continue to be the useful idiots as they have been for a decade.
The game is no longer Dem vs. Rep. There will be no normal midterms. The struggle at the top is between the Christian Nationalists, the technofascist (Nation State) crowd, and the MAGA base that Bannon leads. Think of Bannon's people as the brown shirts they'll eventually use to silence dissent.
Imagine a chip-access deal or some sort of organized takeover of Taiwan (stripping the island of its sovereignty in Trump fashion) over a set period of time for USA, Inc. to be able to scale semiconductor fabs.
The culture war is a distraction. The rich are stealing the future. :earth: :NoNazis: :ExtinctionRebellion: :NonCommercialUS:

The man behind #DOGE's "#AI-first" strategy, the 28 year-old ex-#Tesla engineer #ThomasShedd, has quietly—& possibly illegally—become the head of technology for the Department of #Labor.

Since #ElonMusk’s so-called #DOGE took over important govt #technology teams within the #GSA & what was formally known as the #USDS, around 200 technologists have either resigned or been fired, jeopardizing around a decade’s worth of work dedicated to everything from #PublicHealth to #passport applications.

#DOGE Is Putting Major Government #Efficiency Projects at #Risk
“18F was the people’s #tech shop,” one fired #18F worker tells WIRED. “There’s a giant hole left by the closure of 18F. Requests from across the country for help far outpaced 18F’s capacity before the closure.”

The meeting was a potential turning point after the frenetic first weeks of #Trump’s 2nd term. It yielded the first significant indication that Trump is willing to put some limits on #Musk, whose efforts have become the subject of several lawsuits & prompted concerns from #Republican lawmakers, some of whom have complained directly to Trump.

Throughout all of this, #Trump sat back in his chair, arms folded, as if he were watching a tennis match.
After the argument dragged on for an uncomfortable time, Trump finally intervened to defend #Rubio as doing a “great job.” Rubio has a lot to deal with, he said. “He is very busy, he is always traveling & on TV, & he has an agency to run. So everyone just needs to work together.”

#MarcoRubio had been privately furious w/ #Musk for weeks, ever since his team effectively shuttered an entire agency that was supposedly under #Rubio’s control: the #USAID. But, in the extraordinary #cabinet meeting in front of #Trump & around 20 others — details of which have not been reported before — Rubio got his grievances off his chest.

…#Musk was elated by #Trump’s win, but he had done virtually no preparation for his new initiative. 2 days after the election, on Nov 7, Musk was…at Mar-a-Lago….He would spend much of the next 2 months there, staying at a $2,000-a-night cottage on the property.
In the days & weeks that followed, a tight circle began planning how to swiftly upend the bureaucracy, starting essentially from scratch.

They would call it the US #DOGE Service, & they would not even have to change the initials.
They began their move on the #USDS earlier than has previously been reported, The NYT found, while Pres #Biden was STILL IN OFFICE — giving them the ability to operate on #Trump’s first day.

The plan for his #DOGE was mapped out in a series of closely held meetings in Palm Beach, FL, & through early #intelligence-gathering efforts in Washington.
Without ceding control of his companies, the richest man in the world has embedded his engineers & aides inside the government’s critical #digital #infrastructure, moving with a swiftness that has stunned #CivilServants.

How #ElonMusk Executed His Takeover of the Federal Bureaucracy 🧵
It started as banter at a fund-raising dinner for Vivek Ramaswamy's presidential campaign in 2023. #Musk indicated to guests that he believed that #technology was the key to gutting the federal bureaucracy.

Yes, #Technofeudalism is def. worth a try. It is a bit peculiar for an economics #book, reminds me of "What unites us" by #DanRather style wise, but #Yanis aroufakis tells the story great enthusiasm and conviction.
I found this article, BTW:

My point.
The bad thing is, I would actually agree with the systemic descriptions and the connotations of #TechnoFeudalism. If you factor in the #TESCREAL dimension of #Elmo and the #PayPalMafia et al, you even gave the medieval "beliefs" dimension. And no-one will argue that if you receive millions of dollars of seed capital, you owe your #liege aka #VC #fealty. And, yes they collect rent, and yes, they either inherited the "rights" or acquired them, charging rent.
