the aspect of a plan like this i find most chilling is that it does not actually require control of the government. 3 tech bros could sit down at davos and decide to implement it. you literally get an unelected technocracy that gets to decide who the government is and then push for it to make what they just grabbed permanent and mandated.
Not "could sit down", "have sat down". e.g. Parler's shutdown by AWS and subsequent data leak, though a number of smaller WP sites for example up to the Drudge Report have been silenced or co-opted. To the earlier point, Democrats have already made great headway into permanent majority through electoral control and are pulling out all stop at state and national level to prevent fair voting, from the revised HR 4 nationally to the Democrats in the TX legislature fleeing the state to block a quorum on voter reforms.
