Show Notes
<p>Half of this episode was behind the paywall but in honor of Curtis Yarvin, Mencius Moldbug himself, calling for the end of Democracy in The New York Times (at least he didn't bring up his "human alternative to genocide") we're making this ep free for everybody. Also it was before we were recording video so please enjoy this visual of a waveform.</p>

<p>00:00:00 - Kate Willet's on the show to tell us about technofascism</p>
<p>01:18:42 - This is where the stuff that was paywalled before starts</p>
<p>Comedian and podcaster Kate Willett joins Jamie Peck and Sam Beard for a wide-ranging discussion of the San Francisco tech milieu that anointed JD Vance as Donald Trump's VP pick. Unlike the old school robber barons, the tech capitalists of today want more than money; they want to be gods. Via labor arbitrage, political meddling, and even seemingly innocuous ideas like "smart cities," figures like Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, David Sacks, and Bilaji Srinivasan seek to immiserate the average person, dismantle the government and bring about an anarcho-capitalist dystopia ruled by neo-feudal warlords. But hey, at least they're never going to beat the couch fucking charges.</p>
