Interview: Big Tech’s drift to the right

Silicon Valley billionaires have formed “a symbiotic relationship” with Trump, showering him "with money & adulation in exchange for friendly policies".

While "Silicon Valley has always had reactionary currents", Biden's stricter regulation of the industry sent it into "a wholehearted embrace of Trump" with hopes of deregulation.

@DrALJONES @Lazarou

The symbiotic relationship between tech moguls and Trump is why I think said moguls don't care that their platforms are flooded with AI slop

There's only one audience that matters, and that is El Caudillo de Mar-a-Lago

As long as the AI rains adulation on Orange Nero, federal contracts and zero regulation will keep the moguls rich

The Broligarchy is fascistic, & lies are all that fascism has. AI is it.
