"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

For a short overview, see for example:

https://mondediplo.com/2025/11/02tech

Beyond Palantir, under the banner of ‘patriotic tech’, a coalition of firms, funders and ideologues is engineering a planetary infrastructure for techno-political control. It’s a stacked system – cloud platforms, AI models, financial rails, drone networks, orbital systems – forming what I call the ‘Authoritarian Stack’. Where traditional authoritarianism relies on mass mobilisation and state violence, this system operates through technological infrastructure and financial coordination, making classic resistance appear not just difficult but obsolete. At its helm stand Silicon Valley’s most rightwing figures – Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen, David Sacks, Palmer Luckey and Alexander Karp – whose investments align with a political project: the remaking of sovereignty as a private asset class.
