The dystopian "#FreedomCities" dream fueling #ElonMusk's destruction

Tech's plans for #BillionaireRule expose why Musk wants to end government by the people

By Amanda Marcotte

Published March 17, 2025

"In our cynical times, most people are familiar enough with doublespeak to understand that anything called a 'freedom city' is likely to be the opposite. It's a sign of the delusional self-confidence in their own mendacious powers that the tech oligarchs who are financing this idiotic idea insist on going with that branding anyway. Investigative reporters Vittoria Elliott and Caroline Haskins published an in-depth report on this scheme for Wired earlier this month. What immediately becomes clear is that what the Silicon Valley billionaire class considers 'freedom cities' is simply neo-feudalism, a plan to end the concept of citizenship and make every working person a serf whose entire life is controlled by the whims of their boss."

to be part of the American oligarchy/ruling classes, you have to be a capitalist.

USA oligarchy treats labor as a plantation. so to them, white working classes are akin to plantation managers.

#MAGA #techbros #petromafia decided they don’t need the white working classes anymore ―that’s the whole push for #AI.

the American plantation owners have turned against their plantation managers and are eager to treat white working classes the way they treat Black, Indigenous & People of Color…

It just dawned on me that AI is the tech bros newest 5G. Remember when 5G was supposed to be a “quantum leap” forward? How it would have implications similar to the invention of electricity?

Well, we’re 5 years in by my count. And what I’ve seen is similar speeds with more limited range which is by design. The frequencies physically have less reach.

I’ve also not experienced any cell network stable enough to trust a doctor to perform “remote surgery via robot” yet, either. How dumb.

This is partly why they want everyone to get covid over and over until they become disabled or die.

And isn’t this packaging of risky assets (after deregulation of course) what caused the last bubble?

He got involved in this back in 2020.

From the link:

“With the REIT model, instead of buying a single condo, you buy a share in a company that owns 100 or 200 condos. This investment vehicle was established by Congress in the 1960s, opening the doors to large-scale real estate investments for smaller investors. It’s a model that has enabled real estate hedge funds to buy up large swaths of thehousing market, driving up demand and prices. Recently, companies have begun applying a REIT-like model to land.”

"More immediately ominous to people familiar with the systems was the possibility that, by tampering with the code, Elez could cause the systems, in whole or in part, to simply stop working. 'It’s like knowing you have hackers on your network, but nobody lets you do anything about it,' a Treasury employee told WIRED."

Yes,

YES! and say it with the chest:

🗣 OPPOSING FASCISM IS A JEWISH TRADITION

#BDS all collaborators with #Trump #MAGA #techbros and every sundry supporter of #AmericanFascism.

yes, we #antifascists here in the USA are asking antifascists all over the world to #Boycott #Divest and #Sanction all #USA and international companies and institutions that support American fascism.

#BDSColumbia for aiding in the abduction of Khalil Mahmoud

image from above of dozens of people sitting on the floor or standing next to each other, dressed in red & white tshirs and black pants and some of them holding banners. one of them clearly reads: opposing fascism is a jewish tradition. on the front of some of the t-shirts it says, NOT IN OUR NAME. they are one of the many Jewish organizations protesting the abduction and imprisonment of Palestinian activist Khalil Mahmoud, by Trump and his fascist collaborators.

@cstross @ardenthistorian.bsky.social I recommend reading "The #TESCREAL Bundle" to see the connections of these people and their fascist eugenic "scifi" ideologies: firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/
One author is on Mastodon: @timnitGebru (while @xriskology doesn't seem to be active anymore).
