What I mean when I say that venture capitalists are engaged in a new Manhattan Project, I mean that they have gathered their BEST technical talent and that talent is working together around the clock on a clandestine project to figure out how to create a significantly more powerful WMD

We have to make new communists. There is no other choice. We need new converts

Actually I just re-read this and the way it still bangs after all these years and is extraordinarily relevant to this moment and for the inquiry into tech colonialism!!!!

The thing about the earth, for me, is that if you look at it, there is truly nothing missing, nothing absent, nothing lacking, nothing left unsaid or done, no detail unattended to, there is enough of everything, and every tiny corner is full of things which have their own order.

Mine came out over ten years ago, and I STILL get people messaging me about it, or strangers I meet saying "oh hey, I know you from X". Apparently it was even cited in a book a few years ago! bsky.app/profile/goos...

Running Model View Culture was on the whole a terrible experience for me personally and basically ruined my life, I don't regret it fully, only partially, but the saving grace of it was the people we published. Contributors to it were almost entirely women, with a number of non-binary contributors.

It just so happened that Trump endorsed a certain right-wing candidate in the latest Honduras elections... who very unexpectedly won the presidency... And here we are. 😱

THE NETWORK STATE IS: - Colonies and special economic zones - Corruption and takeover of the government, destruction of its regulatory bodies, takeover of the financial system (the end of sovereignty) - Ports, military bases, nuclear energy plants, datacenters - Zones for R&D, medical experiments

I've been watching the Vampire Lestat aftershow and it is such a pleasure because there is just something about seeing a team at the top of its game, and pulling it off, and making something wonderful, and the sense of satisfaction on their faces, a job well done, and an easy camaraderie.

TFW editing is the only thing between you and a lil treat of a joint

I've been considered an alarmist for my whole career and meanwhile history consistently shows I was far too conservative in my analysis. 😱

The Network State of Prospera (backed by Peter Thiel and Marc Andreessen) is expanding at a rapid pace, now accelerating development on the Honduran mainland where they have a zone for nearshoring and manufacturing and will now build a datacenter.

Something that is amazing is how perfumes can smell WARM, like they have an actual heat signature. Its cool that perfumes can smelll "cold" but something about "warm" as a scent is so trippy to me.

A startup staffed by terrorists. What could possibly go wrong?

#PapaRoach: youtu.be/-rdmG0k8S8k?...

I have multiple friends and loved ones who’ve had their lives ruined, or even lost, to the depravity of the men who hold the most power in the tech industry. The CEO of the first startup I helped create later was later party to funneling Epstein’s funds to MIT. Do not ever forgive.

And are actively recruiting "talent" from the IDF 😭 www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/ar...

It is so crazy to look at who funded **actual weapons startups being used in the genocide** and see that someone I used to know, see people that I used to know funding the most heinous shit imaginable, people who used to do very innocuous and pro-social things with technology.

It is *absolutely* relevant, when we consider that the most powerful players, like Andreessen Horowitz, *hire people who kill unarmed civilians around them*.

Right now, there is a huge Fascist Libertarian Conference happening at Olympia in London Have a look, and note that Nazi Farage just spoke there, and the person who now runs "The Prosperty Institute" (formerly Legatum), is Sarah Elliott, wife of Vote Leave's Matthew www.arc-conference.com/arc-2026

This year there has been significant movement by Anduril - the largest venture capital weapons company- into Israel, including Palmer Luckey meeting with Netanyahu, now putting together in-country operations and in talks to put an Israeli war criminal to run things over there for them.

I feel like I'm having a mid life crisis that's about, like, i'm taking a shower, and i think to myself very dramatically and despairingly: how many times have we done this boring charade in our lives? how many more times must i go through this tedious ritual ?

Chicago is so clearly the best city in America like this place rules

new pub from my homie @sunhahong.bsky.social on the Crypto and VC exiteers, and their ideal of 'Despot Urbanism' @shanley.com journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Question, do you think it is safe to use a circuit breaker? The power is out in one of my rooms. Or is this something I should call in some kind of man to do. (sincere)

Hell is hybrid Silicon Valley/Israeli venture capital firms and there are more and more of them. Tons of new VC funds coming out. The merging of these two bodies is a major factor and root cause of the proposals to merge the US/Israeli militaries.

I can't believe I counted on getting credited for my work 😭 I feel so dumb lol

Because they did absolutely nothing to stop tech fascism against multiple administrations, took huge amounts of money from tech, left tech fascism out of their last presidential campaign, their leading candidate for next one is in with the VCs in cali.

The Democrats should be doing a huge internal purge. They won't because they are massively corrupt, but like, that would be the right thing to do and a great starting point.

But did I?

Democrats let tech fascism in the door. Never forget that. Not by losing elections. But by consistently welcoming bribes, corruption, infiltration and takeover from the tech industry. For decades.

Also, FYI, tech fascists have not changed their opinion of Trump whatsoever. They think he is scum. 😂 They are the New Elite

Cowards in fields where courage is required are a dangerous thing.

Also Google's Eric Schmidt just hanging out in the White House constantly during the Obama's time was just a bonkers abdication of federal oversight of tech. For the guy who was a professor of the system of the constitution, how could he not have seen what that would cause.

Reminder of where tech fascism comes from.

Palmer Luckey looking typically care free and hanging 10. Someone in the comments was like "dude is living cortisol free" 😂 there are definitely some elements missing in this man's experience of the world hahahah
