This well-written Guardian article struck me as relevant to this board as it highlights the historical linkage between technology-oriented Silicon Valley and what it refers to as 'technofascism', rooted in ultra-conservative white male christianity.

‘Headed for technofascism’: the rightwing roots of Silicon Valley

The industry’s liberal reputation is misleading. Its reactionary tendencies – celebrating wealth, power and traditional masculinity – have been clear since the dotcom mania of the 1990s

The prominent presence at the recent presidential inauguration of technology execs Zuckerberg, Bezos and Musk, for now perhaps the three richest men in the world, serves to accentuate this connection.
