Lots of fascinating reads.
I had no idea about the Network State. Which, to me, is bananas-crazy. Felt like a conspiracy theorist just reading about it… but it’s all cited, it’s a very real ideology that a lot of people that are now in power subscribe to.
Also interesting was the implications for the Trump presidency (post appears to be written before the election).
yep, techno colonialism. Thiel, who single handedly orchestrated JD Vance’s rise to power, and many other psychopath monarchist billionaires have salivated over a ‘Galts Gulch’ style ancap utopia for quite a while. they’re pubescent Randroids who never had to grow up and develop a world view compatible with other actual human beings. immature parasite fucktards.
