I mentioned this in another thread, but might as well develop it here: there’s no “new world order”, it’s “new USA order”. In other words I don’t think that this network state will be able to spread outside USA; it seems to rely too much on USA’s specificities (strong tech centres, and a rather lax gov that allows itself to be toppled).

And, even if the autocoup succeeds and the network state replaces the United-Statian government, the former will only get a fraction of the power of the later. External actors will intervene and grab their chunks of the pizza; and some power will be simply gone (e.g. international soft power - see Trump taunting Commonwealth, EU, some LatAm countries.)

I might be wrong, however. Don’t trust too much what I say.

For people who see the X icon and want to nope out of reading, note that it may be worth persisting. Here’s the first part of the article:

Elon Musk’s attempt to destroy the United States government isn’t random chaos. It’s the methodical execution of the “network state” blueprint.

Yet even as tech billionaires openly implement their well-documented playbook for dismantling American democracy, no one will dare say the words “network state” – except for Steve Bannon, unfortunately.
