This technological authoritarianism is also a toxic mix of white male supremacy and is deeply environmentally damaging. AI alone demands enormous resources of energy and water, to tge point of removing power from tge publicly available grid and sequestering water. The level of misogyny doesn't just exclude women, it erases them as human. It is deeply hostile to biological processes both human and more generally. This is in addition to the other excellent points you make. Thank you for focussing on this.

Elon Musk's war on empathy aka "fundamental weakness of Western civilization,” pushing us toward “civilizational suicide." is the toxic twin of the e/acc movement.
