The Inauguration of Techno Feudalism

In this timely episode, we examine the recent inauguration through the lens of "techno-feudalism"—a concept describing the growing dominance of tech giants in our economy and society. As political leaders take their oaths, we question whether their power is being overshadowed by unelected digital overlords who control vast resources, data, and influence.

We draw connections between the pomp and ceremony of democratic transitions and the subtle yet undeniable shift in power dynamics brought about by technological monopolies. Are elected officials still the primary drivers of policy, or have corporations like Amazon, Google, and Meta become the true architects of modern governance?

Join us as we unpack how this inauguration reflects broader trends in a system where tech companies act as modern-day feudal lords, shaping not only the digital landscape but also economic and social realities. Through thoughtful analysis, we’ll explore what this means for democracy, individual autonomy, and the future of governance in a world increasingly defined by algorithms and corporate interests.

🔍 The question isn’t just who’s in office—it’s who’s really in control.
