The Guardian interviewed Gil Duran this week about The Nerd Reich, his book on Silicon Valley fascism and the war on democracy.
It is an important book and a good interview.
Duran names the ideology correctly: Thiel, Yarvin, Andreessen, the neoreactionary conviction that democratic friction is an engineering defect to be routed around, that cities and nations should be run as corporations, that the CEO model of governance is superior to electoral accountability.
What the interview does not mention, even once, is the deregulated free zone model currently reshaping Britain.

Never did get any refund from @loveholidays holiday bookers beware. Literally took our money for a hotel we did not stay in.
The information about the construction was absolutely buried near the end of the description in your site but you are using this and an inflexible 5 day before travel no hotel change rule to justify terrible customer service

There is no doubt anymore: Israeli soldiers are intentionally slaughtering Palestinian children. Not just through hunger, and deprivation of healthcare and clean water but also by shooting them in the head and chest. The IDF are child murderers.
FIFA has taken us for fools over its promise to fight racism nytimes.com/athletic/6431853…

This is quite possibly the most powerful and important thing I’ve ever seen.
Max Porter’s Wild West is a glimpse into British violence - colonial, institutional and chillingly ordinary.
We are a country haunted by our own brutal fictions.
Watch this. Trust me.
So @loveholidays you have literally just stolen €1300 off us for a hotel we are not staying in. You will be hearing more from us. Absolutely disgraceful, criminal behavior.

@loveholidays and please don’t reply publicly telling me you would be so happy to help in private chat because we know that in private chat you have refused to consider even a partial refund of the money you have stolen.
So i sent a private message to @loveholidays and just got a chatbot
