Content

Today we talk about the concept of Technofeudalism as described by Yanis Varoufakis. We talk about the comparisons of our world to the feudal system, the origins in the economic policy of 2008, and a few potential paths forward centered around important questions to be revisiting. Hope you enjoy it! :)

As always I appreciate you making this podcast and my family's life possible. Would love to hear from you if you have any questions. Be well!

Along with this as a more current view, I would love to hear you cover Sheldon Wolin on inverted totalitarianism or managed democracy. (Democracy Inc.- 2010)

I've read the book,listened to the show and yesterday tried to explain it to someone. And I struggled to explain the difference between profits and cloud rent. Is not rent for when you own an office building and rent out offices rent-profit? I get that the platforms are not really marketplaces of capitalism, but the companies are still seeking profit.. and his argument about "entry" to the marketplace is in practise the same as if you want to open a store; you need to rent a space in the right area. How is that different? Any thoughts are welcome:-)
