Elon Musk and the "Dark Enlightenment."
...or as I like to call it, the Dork Enlightenment.
There have been some articles floating around about the so-called "Dark Enlightenment," but probably not nearly as much as there should be, seeing as how it's the philosophy behind Elon Musk's takeover of America; along with other Oligarchs he is aligned with like Peter Thiel.
In a nutshell: it's the belief that the rich white men running Big Tech right now are superior to everyone else and have become the new Feudal Overlords. The Divine Right Of Kings is alive and well, and we're not only entering into a new Gilded Age, but an age of Technofeudalism. We are serfs, beholden to our Technofeudal Overlords. And through our interaction with cloud-based, algorithm-driven apps, we are participating in and abetting our own subjugation.
Here are some links on the subject:
