My book AGAINST TECH OLIGARCHY, out Sept 15, is available for pre-order at againsttecholigarchy.com. It chronicles the rise of tech workers' activism, how they courageously came together to challenge the industry's bosses, and how their movement changed Silicon Valley forever. 1/

We’re joined by @fturner discussing essay at @thebafflermag on the migration of big tech from Silicon Valley to Texas as well as the fusion of monarcho-capitalism and Christo-fascism. on.soundcloud.com/9MeVaSFVse…
Proud as heck to share this from The Baffler:
Thirty years ago, Richard Barbrook and Andy Cameron described “The Californian Ideology”—how hippies shaped Silicon Valley. Now, after examining the new extractive tech landscape, Fred Turner defines the next phase: “The Texan Ideology.”

#LongCovid isn't just a medical condition; it's a social disease. Since 2020, we've become more divided, distrustful, and disdainful of core institutions. When we needed #solidarity, Americans turned on each other. We built a wall. My essay in @nytopinion nytimes.com/2024/01/31/opini…
