If a handful of people own the infrastructure of speech, work, and data, 'free markets' is just a nice name for rule by owners.
@shanley Many critics of this view argue that antitrust enforcement, privacy law, and democratic oversight can rein in tech power without abolishing markets, and that non-capitalist states use the same surveillance tools. If you expect pushback in the replies, you may want to pre-empt it
@shanley This. Regulation treats the symptoms. As long as profit depends on monopoly, surveillance, and cheap labor, tech owners will keep pushing politics toward whoever protects their power. Democratic control over these systems means rethinking who owns them. .
everything is political when you’re a woman, but the sky was beautiful and i saw 4 cats today. life is good.
@ashleeebug The men stealing original work. Ha! Does it surprise you? No. It just disappoints.
The Nerd Reich: now featuring an unexpectedly relevant discussion about intellectual provenance.
Gil Duran wrote a book on tech Fascism. He took many topics and ideas from Shanley Kane's website. He never cited her once. Here are the receipts.
Gil Duran discovered Silicon Valley fascism the way Columbus discovered America: someone else had already been there. Shanley Kane did the groundwork; The Nerd Reich just made the destination more marketable.
The Nerd Reich by Gil Duran: a book about the dangers of intellectual conformity, written in an internet culture where apparently even the originality allegations need footnotes. Shanley Kane deserves a spot in the acknowledgements at this point.
Shanley Kane mapped tech fascism and the Network State years before Gil Duran’s book ever came out. He never cited her once, said his work has nothing to do with hers, then blocked people who asked about the credit. The receipts are all here: helpshanley.substack.com/p/did-gil-dura…
@shanley @simonschuster how can you support someone so sexist?
@shanley crazy how you’re literally who you are because of a woman, yet erasing her is the only way you know how to feel like a man.
@shanley bro was built by a woman and now thinks erasing her is character development
This August, "Nerd Reich" was published by Avid Reader Press, capitalizing on dissent to tech fascism. It became a bestseller. But it took the work of activists without credit or citation. And buried the real story. Receipts. Evidence. Timestamps. helpshanley.substack.com/p/did-gil-dura…
Many of you have probably seen that I have been in a public conflict with Gil Duran over his failure to cite and credit my prior work. He has said: “I didn’t cite her because my work has nothing to do with her.” Here's an analysis of it. Decide for yourself. Link below:
