The Rise of the Silicon Oligarchy ft. Jacob Silverman

Trump’s back in office, Elon’s doing “awkward hand gestures,” and the oligarchy 2.0 is right behind them.

This week on System Crash, Paris and Brian welcome special guest Jacob Silverman to dive into the grotesque spectacle of Trump’s second inauguration, why he lined up the nation’s tech titans for the occasion, and where this Silicon oligarchy is headed. Jacob explains all four of Trumpworld’s crypto coins.

Jacob Silverman is the author of the forthcoming book “Gilded Rage: Elon Musk and the Radicalization of Silicon Valley” and the co-author of “Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud.”
