If you haven't yet, catch up on Gil Duran's recent coverage of Tech Billionaires' quest for corporate democracy:
- 'Where J.D. Vance Gets His Weird, Terrifying Techno-Authoritarian Ideas' - https://newrepublic.com/article/183971/jd-vance-weird-terrifying-techno-authoritarian-ideas
- 'The Tech Baron Seeking to Purge San Francisco of “Blues”' - https://newrepublic.com/article/180487/balaji-srinivasan-network-state-plutocrat
-
Mike Madrid steps in as solo-host to explore the unsettling ambitions of tech billionaires to reshape society through JD Vance and authoritarian means. Joined by esteemed journalist and former political advisor Gil Duran, the discussion begins with Gill's unique career trajectory and his insights working with (and later criticizing) Kamala Harris. Find out more on his reasoning from being Kamala's critic to endorsing her.
Together, they present a series of articles revealing a disturbing vision where democracy is replaced by tech-driven dictatorships, driven by billionaires like Elon Musk, David Sacks, and Marc Andreessen. Other topics include: the "California Forever" project by billionaires in Solano County, Gary Tan's right-wing tech takeover of San Francisco, Balaji Srinivasan's "Gray Tribe" agenda, and the influential connection between J.D. Vance, Peter Thiel, and Curtis Yarvin.
Gil Duran is a San Francisco journalist who previously served as editorial page editor of The Sacramento Bee and The San Francisco Examiner. In 2003, he transitioned into political communications, working as a spokesman and strategist for Jerry Brown, Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris. He currently writes the FrameLab Newsletter, is an author on The New Republic, and regularly contributes to the San Francisco Chronicle and other publications.
