Is Silicon Valley trying to replace democracy with a tech-bro meritocracy?

Original version ·

It seems a few billionaire tech giants have decided they're better at running the world than, you know, voters.

Apparently, a handful of venture capitalists and tech moguls have reached a rather bold conclusion: democracy is just a glitch in their system. According to Gil Duran, this elite circle thinks government processes are just roadblocks preventing them from building their private utopias.

It is not just about moving fast and breaking things anymore; it is about dismantling the democratic process to replace it with a board-room style hierarchy. They are tired of pesky regulations and public debate, preferring to govern from their own gated realities.

The irony of people who cannot even fix their own content moderation algorithms wanting to re-engineer civilization is lost on absolutely no one.
