The overhaul shows no signs of letting up—and today’s developments push the dystopia even further. Elon Musk is championing another round of deep cuts across government agencies, with even more departments slated for dismantling in the relentless quest for “efficiency.” Meanwhile, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is still in hot water. The agency’s secret use of AI-driven algorithms to decide which jobs and programs to eliminate has been exposed, and now, a DOGE staffer’s racist remarks have only intensified the outrage. What does this mean for the future of governance? Who is really pulling the strings—and for whose benefit? And as the cuts pile up with no end in sight, what kind of society are we edging toward?
