#028 - Technofascism with Jacob Silverman

This week, we are thrilled to welcome a very special guest, journalist and author Jacob Silverman. Jacob’s writing focuses on the tech industry; particularly on the political activism of tech billionaires and their collective efforts to buy the U.S. government and instrumentalize it in support of their nefarious fascist worldview.

His forthcoming book, “Gilded Rage: Elon Musk and the Radicalization of Silicon Valley” could not be coming out at a more timely moment, and you can (and should!) preorder it here. You should also follow Jacob on Substack: https://substack.com/@jacobsilverman and on Twitter @SilvermanJacob. He has his finger on the pulse of the oft-confusing goings-on of the technofascist takeover and you’d be wise to track his analysis.

In our conversation, we talk about the current state of play a couple weeks into the Trump administration and zoom out to consider how we got here, what the historical precedents for the present moment are, and what we - the disgusted spectators watching it all unfold from the left - might do to prevent the technofascist dystopia from culminating its conquest of our lives.

The subject matter is grim, and we’ve tried to end on a light note with an Angleton’s Orchids original song to play us out.

We hope you enjoy! Let us know what you think at fourthreichpod@gmail.com, follow us on Twitter and Instagram @fourthreichpod, and, if you’re inclined to give us a hand in ramping up our operations, sign up as a Patron here.
