"In her book [Technofascism Survival Guide], [former cybersecurity professor Kim Crawley] claims that Silicon Valley’s fascist origins began with Stanford University eugencists in the 19th century, which continued through the explosion of the computer technology industry, and exists today in the form of Gen AI, law enforcement using the internet, phones, and smart devices for mass surveillance, and tech billionaires like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos being featured at Donald Trump’s second inauguration."

“Technocracy and fascist politics are being embraced by megalomaniac elites scheming for their own survival” ~ Ned Ludd
