*A look into how the tech leaders may be using the new administration to achieve their own agenda. Looking specifically at Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andressen, Ben Horotwitz, Brian Armstrong, and David Sacks as well as their relationship with figures like JD Vance, Balaji Srinivasan, and Curtis Yarvin. There is a focused discussion on how a shaping of the government might take place based on convergences between the ideas of Yarvin, who influences the tech libertarian right, and Project 2025, who have authored a playbook exclusively for President Trump to help with his transition to power. *

    And if you think it’s not happening, ask yourself why fucking DOGE is reporting on what it does on fucking X-formerly-Twitter.

    Since when is X the official mouthpiece of a state department state-official-something?

    And more alarmingly, why is none of our elected officials up in arms about this - or indeed any of this?

      In what way is them reporting on twitter abnormal? Seems like all presidents have used twitter. This seems like the least concerning of all this.

        My interpretation is that it’s a subtle yet ominous sign that they’re normalizing the transition of public government operations–and ultimately power–to privately-owned channels under their full control. It almost perfectly resonates with the main points of the video.

      Because they’re either in on it or a bunch of spineless twerps who just want to receive their bribes in peace.
