I appreciate your response and agree with it, but don’t quite get the emphasis on polarization. They don’t want two polarized media sources, they want one completely controlled propaganda source. And I don’t see how it’s playing into their hands or something being “polarized” against billionaires and trump supporters.

Yarvin and Srinivasan have been described as favoring deliberate polarization to destabilizing established narratives. The intent is to surface competing extremes. They view polarizing media as a way of delegitimizing our current framework of government. Yarvin specifically proposes the deconstruction, even abolition, of current democratic institutions, replacing them with a CEO-led or monarchist. Their intent is to accelerate the cycle of systemic breakdown and renewal, so their version of autocracy can emerge in the vacuum.

Again, it's all part of the plan, which is referred to as the butterfly revolution, by Curtis Yarvin. Leaders that have literally invested in this platform are buying into this nonsense. These guys have polarized the two parties to a point all weaknesses are surfacing. It isn't about democrats vs republicans. It's just working class vs the billionaires. You know the ppl sitting behind Trump at his inauguration. Literally, they want to break apart the US and discredit the constitution. Unless we come together and carve a new narrative that works. These guys may succeed and you can kiss your life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness goodbye, as well bill of rights.

Peter Theil, JD Vance, Marc Andreesen, Garry Tan, Srinivasan, and many others, wanting to overthrow democracy and dissolve nation states. This effort is to establish Network States with those that worship them, sycophants and cults. They want to transform the US into an Autocracy. The polarization of the media and political parties is on purpose. They want America to fall. It's not a secret, not a conspiracy theory. It's definitely being rolled out by billionaires. It would be wise for others here to really do your research and understand why we are being polarized to hate each other. Enter the butterfly revolution:

1. Reboot (“full-power start”) Suspend or bypass existing constitutional limits; concentrate absolute sovereignty in one new organization—analogous to Allied occupation powers in post-1945 Japan/Germany. Eliminate checks and balances that block rapid change.

2. CEO-Monarch model A single executive (chosen like a corporate CEO) rules; the former president becomes a figurehead “chairman of the board.” Treat the state as a firm run for efficiency, not democratic representation.

3. RAGE strategy “Retire All Government Employees” by mass-firing the civil service and replacing it with loyal appointees. Remove institutional resistance (“the Cathedral”) and ensure obedience.

4. Parallel regime Build a fully staffed shadow government in exile before inauguration; unveil it on Day 1 to take over agencies at once. Prevent the bureaucratic slow-rolling that stymied Trump’s first term.

5. Media & academia clampdown Defund or shutter universities and independent press seen as hostile. Break what Yarvin calls the Cathedral’s cultural dominance.

I understand wanting to make the organization more efficient, but i don't think this is what's happening here. I think this is the classic republican strat of gutting federal agencies, pointing to the inefficiencies caused by the loss of institutional knowledge, and using that as an excuse to privatize to their friends.

The fact that Elon's DOGE suggested these cuts lines up

My girlfriend is an immigrant from the UK. I support immigration but only if it respects the rights of US citizens.

Frankly I'm stunned this post hasn't been flagged by one of HN's moderators yet.

Truly sad to see YC clearly play favorites with non-citizens claiming what can be found within the U.S. isn't good enough.

YC does try to bury this topic, but it needs to be discussed. Developer and engineers need to be aware of the intent some of these corporations have in mind for their temporary employment. I say temporary as they intend to automate away the whole workforce and build utopias in their name. This isn't secret or a "deep state", they've plainly stated this agenda publicly and have written material online selling this agenda to other billionaires. Look at https://www.praxisnation.com. This is also referred to as Freedom Cities in Trumps presser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJA_GBhCGgE Many people will die in the pursuit of this :/

Immigration is actually directly related to how CEOs and VCs intend to change the landscape for all things government related, and democracy as a whole. There is very much a subjective intent to tear down the rule of law, the rights that safeguard Americans as a whole, starting with immigration. IT's an entry point, a target to whittle away basic rights of the average American. Peter Thiel touches on this need for a tech revolution in his paper "The Straussian Moment", https://www.hoover.org/research/peter-thiel-straussian-momen..., who also funded JD Vance's rise to VP, and DJT.

These guys, "Tech Bros", love the concepts written in Srinivasan's book "the Network State", and want to replace our current government with distributed monarchies. Srinivasan, Thiel, Andresen, and Curtis Yarvin actually have a documented plan to achieve this which is being executed, to a "T", which involves attacking immigration, not just as a distraction so they can attack the courts directly, but also cause it's part of their vision. This plan is referred to the butterfly revolution, by Curtis Yarvin, which states the following:

1. Reboot (“full-power start”) Suspend or bypass existing constitutional limits; concentrate absolute sovereignty in one new organization—analogous to Allied occupation powers in post-1945 Japan/Germany. Eliminate checks and balances that block rapid change.

2. CEO-Monarch model A single executive (chosen like a corporate CEO) rules; the former president becomes a figurehead “chairman of the board.” Treat the state as a firm run for efficiency, not democratic representation.

3. RAGE strategy “Retire All Government Employees” by mass-firing the civil service and replacing it with loyal appointees. Remove institutional resistance (“the Cathedral”) and ensure obedience.

4. Parallel regime Build a fully staffed shadow government in exile before inauguration; unveil it on Day 1 to take over agencies at once. Prevent the bureaucratic slow-rolling that stymied Trump’s first term.

5. Media & academia clampdown Defund or shutter universities and independent press seen as hostile. Break what Yarvin calls the Cathedral’s cultural dominance.

Curtis Yarvin's writings include pointed attacks on immigration, both as a policy and as a reflection of deeper systemic problems. He uses immigration as an example to argue for the failure of democracy and to advocate for his preferred model of authoritarian governance. He also frames immigration debates as distractions from what he sees as the real issues-namely, the incompetence and self-serving nature of current elites and institutions.

Do you understand why the current administration would want to attack immigration? Altman, Theil, and others(Tech Bros) that manage YC, Palantir, OpenAI. A16Z prescribe to these beliefs. It is no secret, no conspiracy, they publicly talk about this. How do you feel about their approach, and YC's involvement, to changing governance and the future of our country? How do feel about Immigration as a tactic to attack the judicial branch as well assault innocent legal civilians with ICE, which is part of their reboot strategy?

Thiel is one of many billionaires that have veered off track into a more dystopian future, he definitely intends to use AI to manipulate, distort truth, and create distractions, from what's really taking place. The dismantlement of democracy to networked monarchies. It's nothing secret, Theil an d Yarvin describe their motivation in great detail in interviews with New York Times and the Hoover Institution. How do you guys feel about destroying democracy for dictatorships lead by billionaires? They have been pushing the butterfly revolution:

Key elements of Yarvin’s proposal include:

A “full power start” or “reboot” of the U.S. government: This would involve dissolving the existing constitutional order and giving total authority to a single organization or leader, similar to the powers held by Allied occupation authorities in postwar Japan and Germany.

The "RAGE" strategy: Yarvin calls for the mass firing (“Retire All Government Employees”) of the federal workforce, replacing them with loyalists to the new CEO or monarch.

Bypassing traditional democratic institutions: Courts, Congress, and the press would be sidelined or ignored, with the new executive ruling by decree and suppressing dissent from universities and media—institutions Yarvin derides as “The Cathedral”.

Mobilization of popular support: Yarvin envisions a scenario where a charismatic leader (such as Trump) could call supporters into the streets to pressure institutions into compliance with the new regime.

Sounds familiar?

These systems do work, quite well. Especially the latest release of Claude. Palantir is using AI to process your IRS information without your consent, https://archive.is/QAY9E. This should concern everybody. Not only can this information be used to determine specific account details. They can use this to target individuals which don't align with the current administration's agenda, as well exclude hiring base of political alignment. They could also use this data to exclude and discriminate those against Peter Theil's network state agenda aka "Freedom Cities", but it seems everybody is complacent with that.

Hey Peter, what are your thoughts on networks states and the methods tech CEOS and VCs are using to push the working class towards Techno feudalism? Do you think Peter Thiel using Palantir to mine US tax payers information, to help drive and target innocent civilians towards their vision, is legal? Should the constitution exist or do we need to be conquered and lead by monarchies? Most importantly, do you believe the supreme court should exist to serve its purpose in our system of checks and balances?

It sounds like they want to hide congressional investments and stock trades from their constituents, or at least this could be used in a way to achieve that.
