AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER�A fearless and urgent expos� of technofascism - and a road map to resistance. When Silicon Valley `moves fast and breaks things', the world interprets the chaos as a necessary cost of innovation. Gil Dur�n reveals something far more sinister afoot: a decades-long campaign to replace elected governments with corporate rule.�Drawing on insider political experience and new investigations, Dur�n traces this ideology from its philosophical roots in The Sovereign Individual�by James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg. He introduces its modern apostles - Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, Balaji Srinivasan and Elon Musk - and shows how the promise of technological liberation has transformed into a global movement for digital feudalism, powered by cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence and algorithmically driven propaganda on social media.�The Nerd Reich�explains the origins, strategies and ambitions of Silicon Valley's war on democracy for the first time. From San Francisco's weaponised elections and secret billionaire projects to the White House, Dur�n exposes how the world's richest men are building a new political order.�The Nerd Reich�is more than a hidden history; it's an urgent warning: democracy is being dismantled, not by coups or tanks but by code, capital and the illusion of innovation. Dur�n insists there is still time to fight back - if we act now. Gil Dur�n, New York Times bestseller, August 2026
