Podcast appearances and mentions of kate willett

On this edition of Parallax Views, comedian and writer Kate Willett joins us to examine the growing influence of Silicon Valley billionaires on the Democratic Party and the controversial politics behind the so-called Abundance Agenda. Framed by figures like Ezra Klein as a bold, future-focused vision of progress, this agenda is increasingly backed by tech elites such as Dustin Moskovitz—co-founder of Facebook—and promoted through a network of well-funded think tanks, including the Niskanen Center, that aim to push the party in a technocratic, pro-market direction. With sharp wit and political insight, Kate unpacks how the Abundance movement—closely aligned with key figures on the Tech Right—represents a slick, astroturfed rebranding of neoliberalism. Beneath its glossy surface lies a coordinated strategy to marginalize progressive and working-class voices while recasting Silicon Valley's private interests as public goods. We explore how this plays out most visibly in San Francisco, where billionaire-funded groups have successfully reshaped local politics and helped unseat progressive officials. Kate also offers a thoughtful critique of California's YIMBY (Yes In My Backyard) movement. While she is not a NIMBY (Not in My Backyard) advocate either, she raises serious concerns about how YIMBY rhetoric often functions as a Trojan horse for real estate developer- and tech-driven policies that displace working-class communities under the guise of solving the housing crisis. This episode explores the intersection of tech money, urban development, media influence, and intra-party power struggles—and asks the vital question: “Abundance for whom?” Show Notes: "Abundance: Big Tech's Bid for the Democratic Party by Kate Willet (New International Magazine)

Why is Elon trying so hard to dismantle the administrative state? This may be an answer you haven't heard yet. This week, Emile and Kate host journalist Gil Duran (New Republic, The Nerd Reich) for a discussion about Network States, aka libertarian post democracy colonies that have become a popular idea among tech billionaires. From seasteading to the California Forever tech utopia, from Mars to maybe... the entire US, these guys have their sites set on a feudal structure that makes an Ayn Rand novel look quaint.

Half of this episode was behind the paywall but in honor of Curtis Yarvin, Mencius Moldbug himself, calling for the end of Democracy in The New York Times (at least he didn't bring up his "human alternative to genocide") we're making this ep free for everybody. Also it was before we were recording video so please enjoy this visual of a waveform. This episode was recorded on 07/30/24. 00:00:00 - Kate Willet's on the show to tell us about technofascism 01:18:42 - This is where the stuff that was paywalled before starts Comedian and podcaster Kate Willett joins Jamie Peck and Sam Beard for a wide-ranging discussion of the San Francisco tech milieu that anointed JD Vance as Donald Trump's VP pick. Unlike the old school robber barons, the tech capitalists of today want more than money; they want to be gods. Via labor arbitrage, political meddling, and even seemingly innocuous ideas like "smart cities," figures like Peter Thiel, Curtis Yarvin, David Sacks, and Bilaji Srinivasan seek to immiserate the average person, dismantle the government and bring about an anarcho-capitalist dystopia ruled by neo-feudal warlords.

The clown governor just signed into law a horrifying bill that reclassifies FDA APPROVED AND EXTREMELY SAFE abortion medications as "controlled dangerous substances."

We drag the Texas Health Department for filth for replacing an actual expert on their Maternal Mortality Committee with ANTI-ABORTION fetus-worshipper, Dr. Ingrid Skop. WAIT - It gets worse! Texas Republicans reaffirmed in their party platform that the penalty for aborting any and all fertilized eggs that colonize your uterus is the DEATH PENALTY.  WE GOT MORE GUESTS!!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with political commentator Owen Jones to round up the week in news. Then she speaks with comedian Kate Willett! First, Emma runs through updates on the brutal assault on Emory students and faculty protesting genocide and cop-city by the Atlanta police, mass arrests of anti-war protesters on college campuses across the US, Israel's imminent invasion of Rafah, US troops' presence in Chad, Trump's legal woes, Net Neutrality, the climate crisis, and new anti-trans legislation out of Tennessee, before parsing through some rather telling comments from the ongoing Supreme Court case about Trump's potential immunity as President, with representation going as far as to make space for immunity over extra-judicial assassinations. Owen Jones then joins, as he and Emma reflect on the last seven months of constant scenes of devastation and genocide coming out of Gaza, and the mainstream media's heart-wrenching insistence on downplaying the horror, denying the deaths, and running cover for Israel's project of ethnic cleansing under the guise of victimhood. Expanding on this, Jones and Emma explore how the severe repression and propaganda from mainstream Western political institutions is seeing an en-masse public awakening to the genocide of Gaza, and the Western elites' violent commitment to controlling the discourse, with supposed “liberal democracies” from the US to the EU and UK defaming anti-zionist Jews and anti-semites and uplifting actual racists and Jew-haters as legitimate actors. After parsing through the absurdity of the media's insistence on ignoring the obvious rhetoric and policy that has shaped Israel's approach to this entire war, Owen steps back to look to the role of the UK in particular, with the Labor Party's step back from the coalition of Jeremy Corbin at the end of the last decade, and committing itself fully to Israel's agenda of dehumanization and hasbara. Wrapping up, Jones walks Emma through the performative cruelty of the UK's Tory government's ongoing illegal and immoral deportation scheme for asylum seekers. Kate Willet also joins, as she and Emma discuss the repression of left-wing beliefs in the supposedly “liberal” entertainment industry, and the growing trend of the industry's support for right-wing reactionary comics. Kate and the MR Team explore the attempt to present left-wing comedy as hyper-politicized and right-wing comedy as almost de-politicized, before wrapping up by touching on the difficulty of escaping the self-censorship pushed on women and lefties when it comes to speaking out about politics. And in the Fun Half: Emma previews new allegations about Kristi Noam's killer personality, watch Briahna Joy Gray refuse to back down from Rising Co-Host Robby Soave's fascist criticism of student protests, reflects on the greater failure of the US media amid this crackdown on free speech, and listen to Donald Trump attempt to frame these non-violent protests as worse than Charlottesville. Shawn Hannity's Blonde and blue-eyed guest waxes about the severity of the ongoing “illegal occupation” of Pal– I mean– of college campuses by students who pay tuition to be there, and the MR Crew discusses the media's reproduction of genocidal propaganda, plus, your calls and IMs!
