Our Entire Civilization Is Run By Oligarchs And Empire Managers - And Other Notes
About this episode
The Wall Street Journal has a new article out titled “The Hidden Debt That Apple Owes to the CIA,” subtitled “Without CIA funding that helped keep NeXT afloat in the ’80s, Steve Jobs might not have made a triumphant return to Apple — and the iPhone might not have its foundational operating code.”
All the top tech giants have deep ties to the CIA. Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon. Facebook and Instagram are overseen by “former” CIA operatives. Our whole civilization is run by an alliance of oligarchs and empire managers.
Reading by Tim Foley.
