Another Will Bunch piece with well-deserved condemnation of Our Failed Press Corpse™ for its refusal to acknowledge The Mad King's descent into madness, and the potentially cataclysmic dangers thereof.
Highly recommended.
(Not the point, but I especially liked "blonde Rasputin"...)

Editor’s note (September 3, 2026, 1:10 p.m. EDT): In a response to this review posted to social media, Gil Durán, author of The Nerd Reich, has highlighted that the reviewer, Jacob Bruggeman, is affiliated with the Foundation for American Innovation (FAI). Durán mentions FAI in his book, once, in a sentence that reads as follows: “This merging of tech and far-right networks—hosted by the Foundation for American Innovation, which Inc. later described as ‘the foundation shaping the tech right’—seemed like a live test of [Balaji] Srinivasan’s theory.” Bruggeman’s affiliation with FAI is an unpaid, nonresident fellowship (in other words, it is not his day job), and while it was mentioned in his byline beneath this review, we should have made a point of additionally disclosing it in a footnote like this.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:waplkqr2wuy2c4qbge6h6ed4/bafkreibcuvk2l4qvhmrnxzd3edhu6ncq3ljzmn42hpcijr6imlkimnowle)
