#TheNerdReich are using fear to silo #AI development in their hands. This looks the same as the #SocialMedia #Enclosure of the early 2010s. It has always been about #InformationControl. Never about #Democratisation.

@alangnixon.bsky.socialSep 14, 2026, 11:33 PM

When #TheNerdReich say "Democratising access" they generally mean "Individualising profits and sharing the pain"

#Neoliberalism is cancer.

The TEN problems the Al industry participants have in asking us to be grateful about the Al alarm Musk-Altman-Amodei have rung is the folllwing:

1. We warned them to slow down and they scoffed and mocked us and said learn Al or go d!e in the woods.

2. Musk and Altman are absolute deviant fraudsters. It's like asking us to be grateful if Jeffery Epst3!n said he was slowing down flights to his islands. 1/4

3. They want to be trillionaires. Really. And no person who wants that for themselves is ever thinking of the public good.

4. They threw all their money in the 2024 election cycle behind Trump and the GOP because they didn't want regulation stifling their growth. They said it us plainly.

5. They are deliberately exploiting 9/11 "Bin Laden Determined to Strike America" grief to literally release their warning memos on 9/11. That is despicable emotional manipulation of vulnerable people. 2/4
6. They meet in Sun Valley every year. If they want to agree to anything they can....just do it.

They can decide "hmm not going to destroy humanity at our companies" without this murky law they allude to.

7. They are furious at local and state hostility to their data centers and if Democrats come down hard on data centers the circular financing model will collapse and Nvidia will take out everyone.

8. They cannot deliver on the productivity promises. The public is sour on it. So distraction. 3/4

9. The law they have cooked up will include Section 230 style immunity, 9/11 style permission to build surveillance weapons without recourse and 2008 Financial Crisis government backstops with built in taxpayer bailouts. As well as preempting state and local regs.

10. They are messianic psychopaths who talk in absolute tiresome and tedious apocalyptic terms that have gotten on our nerves. And now so are the company employees. We're in an election cycle please shut the f..• up about your Al job. 4/4

Im almost through #TheNerdReich by @gilduran.com

Yes, he‘s wealth.
Yes, he has power.
Yes, he had success at scale.

Nevertheless , as a personality, as a human, as a man: AFAIC Peter #Thiel is #ridiculous .

THE NERD REICH

SILICON VALLEY FASCISM
AND THE WAR ON DEMOCRACY

GIL DURÁNSummary

A fearless and urgent exposé of technofascism - and a road map to resistance.

When Silicon Valley 'moves fast and breaks things', the world interprets the chaos as a necessary cost of innovation. Gil Duran reveals something far more sinister afoot: a decades-long campaign to replace elected governments with corporate rule.

Drawing on insider political experience and new investigations, Durán traces this ideology from its philosophical roots in The Sovereign Individual by James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg. He introduces its modern apostles - Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, Balaji Srinivasan and Elon Musk - and shows how the promise of technological liberation has transformed into a global movement for digital feudalism, powered by cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence and algorithmically driven propaganda on social media.

The Nerd Reich explains the origins, strategies and ambitions of Silicon Valley's war on democracy for the first time. From San Francisco's weaponised elections and secret billionaire projects to the White House, Durán exposes how the world's richest men are building a new political order.

The Nerd Reich is more than a hidden history; it's an urgent warning: democracy is being dismantled, not by coups or tanks but by code, capital and the illusion of innovation. Durán insists there is still time to fight back - if we act now.

Gil Duran has written a brilliant book, #TheNerdReich about what these folks really think about most of humanity. Most of them believe they are the "Cognitive Elite" who deserve to rule over us. Why are they all of a sudden concerned about the "little" people.

I know + admire Naomi Klein and also (relatedly) Jill Lepore, two WW Journos who’ve recently released AlarmBell books about rising Fascism re #BigTech Oligarchs. But: When will @nytimes.com interview @gilduran.com or review his book, #TheNerdReich? He’s expert in the #NorCal scene that spawned this🌁
