The Nerd Reich | Tech Billionaires Threaten to Flee California—Again by Gil Duran

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Tech billionaires in California—most notably Peter Thiel and Google co‑founder Larry Page—are rattled by a proposed ballot measure that would levy a one‑time 5 % wealth tax on the state’s richest residents, a levy that could cost them billions and would apply retroactively to anyone living in California on Jan 1 2026. Backed by the Service Employees International Union‑United Health Workers, the measure isn’t yet on the ballot but has already spurred the billionaires to contemplate exiting the Golden State, with Governor Gavin Newsom even raising money to fight the proposal. Public opinion appears strongly in favor of taxing the ultra‑wealthy—polls show a majority of Americans, and likely an even higher share in California, think billionaires pay too little and wield too much power—fueling a broader backlash against Silicon Valley’s outsized influence, its ties to authoritarian politics, and calls for greater accountability. The article also notes a parallel trend of tech elites, including Curtis Yarvin and former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss, turning their attention to British politics.

The Nerd Reich | The Cult of Venture Capital Wants Your Future by Gil Duran

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

The article argues that Silicon Valley venture capital has morphed from a niche funding source into a powerful “cult” that now functions as the de‑facto planner of American capitalism and a looming threat to democracy. Drawing on a Nerd Reich podcast interview with scholar Olivier Jutel, the piece explains how VCs—through historic ties to the military‑industrial complex, massive fee‑based fund structures, and a 10‑year “future‑building” mindset—have shifted from backing disruptive apps to betting on AI, crypto, surveillance, war technologies and the “network‑state” vision of private sovereign zones. The author contends that these investors are increasingly relying on government bailouts to rescue failing bets, while simultaneously pursuing an agenda to extract value from the nation and ultimately “exit” democracy by creating their own crypto‑enabled, charter‑city‑style polities. In this view, venture capital is less about genuine innovation than about consolidating political power and reshaping society to serve a small elite’s ideological and financial goals.

it's safe to say that "the much smaller market of #transhumanist funeral rites" was not a sentence i ever expected to see in my life

i feel like i owe the #EpsteinFiles a heavy debt for exposing me to these kinds of literary experiences.
