Escaping the Apocalypse: Billionaire Fantasies, AI Feudalism & the Future of Humanity | Douglas Rushkoff (Part 1)

.

🚨 Are billionaires secretly planning their escape from the world they helped destroy? Have we unknowingly accepted digital feudalism as the new normal?

.

In this mind-bending conversation, Dov Baron sits down with Douglas Rushkoff, one of MIT’s top 10 intellectuals, to uncover the hidden realities behind Big Tech, the rise of digital overlords, and how we’re being conditioned to accept a future we didn’t choose.

.

💡 If you consider yourself a serious thinker, you can’t afford to miss this.

.

In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

.

✔️ The Billionaire Exit Plan – Why the world’s wealthiest elites are quietly building bunkers, escape hatches, and contingency plans for ecological and economic collapse.

. ✔️ The Hidden Cost of Social Media – How platforms like X, Facebook, and Instagram have rewired our brains for passivity and control.

. ✔️ Why Musk’s Transition from X to the White House Feels ‘Natural’ – And why his followers don’t question it.

. ✔️ The Digital Feudalism We Don’t Talk About – How we’ve moved from open internet democracy to living under corporate-owned digital kingdoms.

. ✔️ The Utopian Promise of the Internet—And How It Was Stolen – What early digital pioneers got wrong about the future.

. ✔️ Are We the Product or the Pawn? – The real reason tech billionaires don’t believe in Team Human.

. ✔️ How Algorithms Shape Our Reality – What happens when corporations own the narratives that control public perception?

. ✔️ The Most Dangerous Myth of the Tech Elite – Why the phrase "The only way out is through" could be the biggest lie of the 21st century.

.

🔊 If you’re tired of shallow takes on AI and Big Tech, this is where serious thinkers sharpen their edge.
