Old Grievances and New Machines: Dave Troy Breaks Down the Tech Fueled Attack On Our Democracy
About this episode
Host Reed Galen is joined by Dave Troy, tech entrepreneur, historian, and investigative journalist. They discuss how decades-old grievances around money, power, and identity have fused with new technology to threaten democracy, the rise of authoritarian networks fueled by crypto and tech billionaires, and why defending the status quo isn't enough to save free societies. Plus, the urgent need to rebuild human connections in an era of tribalism and online radicalization.
