The decline of the United States is not what Trump's voters wanted. Have they switched allegiance?

Like democracy. And in the resulting chaos the oligarchs still concentrate capital. bsky.app/profile/gild...

When shall we have the Neo Magna Carta?

Won't these billionaire technocrats be surprised when they learn that no one comes when the rule of law is replaced by the law of the jungle and the most violent rule. "Nice business you've got there. Let's be partners".

Yup.

ChatGPT weighs in.

Yes. Got it. Now what?

Vladimir Surkov, Putin's chief adviser, discusses the strategy of preserving the dictatorship in Russia by planting chaos abroad: "Social entropy is very toxic. It is not recommended to work with it in our home conditions. It should be taken somewhere far away for disposal on foreign territory."

Yup. Down with the oligharchs

Thanks for your excellent writing on the nerd reich, it clarifies what’s happening.

They might have the aim to become tech fascists but I can promise they won’t get far dictatorships don’t last long & the dictators end up dead

Right you are, Gil! Back to the Dark Ages, when we no longer pay taxes that we enact for governing ourselves, but instead must pay tribute to whatever local baron demands it.

The problem is, it is chaos for those of us being affected.

They may have the decline of the US as a goal, that doesn't mean their strategy isn't chaotic, because they are freakin' clueless as to what it takes to run a country. And it will result in chaos anyway.

Sounds like slavery to me.

Apartheid South Africa wielded technology to sustain racial supremacy—mirroring the mythic fantasies of Thule & Atlantis: a fortress of "order" against chaos. Musk, shaped by this worldview and driven by fear, now revives the same nightmare: techno-utopianism as a means of elite survival.

It’s been a class war since the beginning of time 😫

Of course we can

It's really mind boggling to see such a large portion of the American people unable to see they are cheering their own demise.

A bunch of nerdy billionaires wanting to be kings without understanding the human cost of building something like this.
