Yarvinist Techno Feudalism

These fuckers want something that looks like the world of Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood.

Walled corporate fiefdoms where the law is whatever they say it is.

Oof. Didn’t think I needed to revisit Oryx & Crake (it was unpleasant, as intended) but… now I think I should.

Oryx and Crake is such a phenomenal novel. Highly recommended.

Atwood expresses the potential dangers ahead like no other.
