Really seems like the fascists are teaming up with Si valley to create dual power. Eggman & Shitler, the Vampire and that weirdo from google are starting a drone factory and making drones modeled after the Shahed so they can sidestep the federal government.

Always have been.

You should read Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World by Malcolm Harris. Stanford University was the birthplace of eugenics.

Love that book, so happy to see it recommended. It's long, but it reads easily and the author is very good at crafting a compelling narrative that ties it all together.

Also can't recommend Surveillance Valley by Yashar Levine enough, along the same lines.

I can get you a free pdf when I get home. With Harris blessing no less.

Thanks, I should probably let @Cowbee@hexbear.net know about it since I am sure many of the things on his excellent ML reading list are in there and likely some things he also hasn't read.

I actually know of this one, I believe thelastaxolotl gave me the link last year when I made the initial list. There's a good deal I haven't read yet in it though, and you reminded me of its existence, so thanks!

Updated my comment with a link to the megadrive folder. Lots of good shit in there. Quite a few audio books too.

Hell yeah getting my browse on

In fact we even have the official audio book for Palo Alto in there
