He doesn't want his plans posted.

I'm curious what people think of the author, Taylor Lorenz? I noticed I have her blocked on some social media and couldn't remember why. I searched a little and found she had referred to Biden as a war criminal on WaPo, just prior to the election. Probably when I started blocking everything I didn't think was generative in terms of news. I still think it's a shit-take but am wondering if I'm just being thin-skinned? Is she a decent writer? Should we be following her? This is definitely an important story to follow. Anyhow, I have moved onto getting my stories from rss readers and some social media, no paid subscriptions to legacy MSM. So, scrutinizing individual writers becomes more critical.

Here’s a similar article discussing the techno-libertarian movement from a different author. Covers similar themes and explicitly discusses the Network State as an ideology

She might be the one that Libs of Tiktok has an unhealthy stalkery lady boner for.

She is a decent left leaning reporter. She is a good writer

Thanks. That's the sense I got. I'll follow her again, I guess. (or maybe not)

Preventing cheating in elections is impossible (LoOk aT 2020!!!11), so to ensure a fair democratic process, we'll automatically choose the outcome of elections with AI models trained on American social media posts.

I am just hearing the end of 2112 by Rush, the guitars and effects wailing as a vocoded voice repeats 'WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL'...
