Our Silicon Valley overlords are not content with merely ruling the world; they want us to think they are doing it for the greater good. In this patrons-only bonus, Kate Willett and the Party Girls crew read and break down Silicon Valley capitalist Marc Andreessen's "Techno-Optimist Manifesto," which presents old school reactionary elitism in a stupid new package.

Jamie and Sam are joined by author and academic Adam Greenfield to discuss his new book Lifehouse: Taking Care Of Ourselves in a World On Fire, out now on Verso. In it, Greenfield makes a well-supported case that world governments will not be able to get a handle on climate change in time to stave off widespread catastrophe. He then examines past mutual aid efforts including Occupy Sandy in New York City, Common Grounds in post-Katrina New Orleans, post-austerity solidarity networks in Greece, and the programs of the Black Panther Party. In these moments, Greenfield identifies modes of solidarity and participatory democracy that might become the building blocks of a new society. In his final chapter, he sets forth a bold proposal for a confederated network of lifehouses...and that's most of what we talk about in this half!

Comedian and podcaster Kate Willett joins us 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. But hey, at least they're never going to beat the couch fucking charges.

In the first ever edition of Party Girls Riot Tracker, Jamie and Sam discuss the student uprising in Bangladesh. Fed up over their limited prospects and the ruling party's corrupt quota system for government jobs, the students of Bangladesh recently took to the streets to demand better for themselves. To say that things escalated from there would be an understatement. The PG crew explain what's going on and read some theses on it developed by a comrade.
