Yanis Varoufakis: Technofeudalism and the Death of Capitalism Sep 22, 2025

Show notes

Yanis Varoufakis is an economist, the former Finance Minister of Greece, and the author of numerous bestselling books. Yanis Varoufakis discusses his book "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism". Varoufakis argues that capitalism as we knew it is dead — replaced by something more dangerous. Instead of markets and competition, our world is increasingly ruled by digital platforms that act like new-age lords, extracting rents from our clicks, data, and attention. Varoufakis traces how Big Tech dismantled the old capitalist order and built what he calls “cloud fiefdoms,” where we are less consumers and more digital serfs. Blending history, economics, and sharp storytelling, he shows how this transformation threatens democracy and concentrates power in unprecedented ways — while also pointing to how we might resist and reimagine the future.Technofeudalism: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/451795/technofeudalism-by-varoufakis-yanis/9781529926095Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen:Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesenSupport the channel:PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Diesen79Buy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/gdiesengGo Fund Me: https://gofund.me/09ea012f

Harald Kujat: Former Head of the German Army Exposes Lies of the Ukraine War Sep 19, 2025

Show notes

General Harald Kujat is a former head of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) and the former Chairman of NATO's Military Committee. Having held the top military position in both Germany and NATO, General Kujat offers his expertise on how the West and Russia ended up fighting a proxy war in Ukraine. General Kujat discusses the failure to reach a common understanding after the Cold War, the toppling of President Yanukovych in Ukraine, the sabotage of the Minsk agreement and the Istanbul peace negotiations, and the West's lies about an "unprovoked" and "full-scale invasion" of Ukraine. When Boris Johnson came to Ukraine to sabotage the peace negotiations in 2022, one of Zelensky's close associates summed up the essence of Johnson's visit: "Johnson brought two simple messages to Kyiv. The first is that Putin is a war criminal; he should be pressured, not negotiated with. And the second is that even if Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with Putin, they are not. We can sign [an agreement] with you [Ukraine], but not with him. Anyway, he will screw everyone over".Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen:Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesenSupport the channel: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Diesen79Buy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/gdiesengGo Fund Me: https://gofund.me/09ea012f
