US Author Gil Durán warns that Silicon Valley “billionaires have enough money to buy both sides" in any US election.
In his book „The Nerd Reich: Silicon Valley Fascism and the War on Democracy,“ Durán pieces together public statements from powerful tech investors like Peter Thiel that amount to a chilling attack on democracy as we know it.
Durán criticizes both Republicans and Democrats for refusing to take on the big money in tech.

The recordings of the Orange Man saying if he were to run he would run as repub because the base is stupid and all they do is watch Fox News...is so telling.
One thing about the Orange Man, he lies about easily verifiable stuff, but he also tells on himself in the same breath.
Imagine utilizing tech to convince historically marginalized people that DEI is their enemy while they flood the place with a bunch of old boys club belonging, nepotistic, incompetent crooks, who proceed to return to re-marginalize them.
Sad to say, but this sordid mess has made it clear how important tertiary education is.
