Lede:

    what the oligarchs [and fascists] don’t want you to understand:
    the same underlying technologies enabling this power concentration
    can be architected to resist it. 

    The key isn’t begging for better billionaires or smarter 
    regulations—it’s recognizing that decentralization isn’t a
    technical preference.

    Decentralization is a democratic necessity.
Backstory:

    fascists are winning because they’ve built a direct pipeline
      from concentrated technological power
      to concentrated political power.

    This isn’t about technology being inherently dangerous—it’s about how
    distorted Wall Street incentives drove us toward digital infrastructure
    that mirrors authoritarian power structures. 

    [fascists] discovered that when digital platforms become centralized
    and authoritarian, democratic institutions will follow.
cont:

    The same authoritarian capture that took over centralized social media
    is already threatening AI systems as well. 

    Just as we’ve watched [a fascist] morph Twitter’s algorithms
    into X’s non-stop amplification of his personal political 
    preferences, we’re seeing AI systems designed to reflect the
    biases and political agendas of their corporate owners. 

    But this pattern isn’t inevitable. We need to understand that
    AI doesn’t have to be another tool of oppression. Designed
    correctly, it can be a weapon of liberation.
