Episode description
The internet wasn’t made to set us free. It was designed to surveil, suppress, and control.
On this episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek speaks with journalist and author Yasha Levine to expose how Big Tech became the digital arm of empire.
From AI-generated kill lists in Gaza to Silicon Valley billionaires coding the future of authoritarianism, this is techno-fascism in real time.
Elon Musk works with the Pentagon. Peter Thiel builds tools for ICE. Mark Zuckerberg scrubs dissent while currying favor with Trump.
Gaza isn’t an exception, it’s a prototype. A beta test for how to rule the world through algorithm, surveillance, and automation.
