Brad goes solo this week to discuss the overlap between tech elites like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Christian nationalists, examining their shared vision and the implications for American society. The episode also explores Elon Musk’s involvement with Donald Trump’s inner circle, including attempts to influence cabinet picks, and the vision of tech moguls wanting to create sovereign ‘freedom cities’ on federal land. Brad gives a critical view of Musk’s transformation from admired innovator to perceived supervillain and how these powerful figures aim to transcend historical limitations. He also highlights the long-term strategies of radicalized Christian nationalists attempting to build a theocratic society in Jackson County, Tennessee, drawing parallels between their goals and those of the tech oligarchs.
