I know it’s been a while, but I was working on another novel unrelated to this and that took most of my time. Now it’s finished, and here we are. We are close to a technocracy. I wish this was a joke, or an exaggeration. If you really want to know what’s going on, I highly suggest your purchase my book about everything going on today, especially the geopolitics involving Iran and the Strait of Hormuz. Hang in there, folks. Gas prices are not going down. The national average is over $4, and GA, where I’m from, is sitting at around $3.80. We’re entering dangerous territory. A year ago, Georgia’s gas price average was $2.90. People truly assume nothing is going on, or all of this is conspiracy. This is not normal. None of this is normal. THE TECHNATE is available to purchase on Amazon and Apple books, with a Spanish translation available as well. They told Americans the economy was thriving, ut beneath the polished speeches and glowing headlines, a quieter collapse was unfolding. Property taxes rose until families were priced out of homes they already owned. Data centers spread across communities with little scrutiny, draining resources while promising progress. Artificial intelligence replaced workers faster than anyone could retrain them, while the remaining jobs were shipped overseas or handed to cheaper imported labor. Student debt trapped an entire generation in their childhood bedrooms. Inflation devoured wages. Homeownership became a fantasy, and independence became a luxury. Your life falling apart while those in power smiled for the cameras and called it prosperity. This was not the apocalypse people expected. There were no bombs or camps. No single moment where the country realized it had fallen. Instead, the machine moved quietly, policy by policy, bill by bill, algorithm by algorithm, until ordinary Americans were pushed out of the future they were promised. The Technate is a chilling political thriller about the slow erasure of a people through economics, technology, and manufactured consent. It asks a terrifying question: What if the destruction of a nation did not look like war? What if it looked like innovation? Les dijeron a los estadounidenses que la economía estaba prosperando, pero debajo de los discursos pulidos y los titulares brillantes, se desarrollaba un colapso más silencioso. Los impuestos a la propiedad subieron hasta que las familias ya no podían pagar las casas que ya poseían. Los centros de datos se extendieron por comunidades con poco escrutinio, drenando recursos mientras prometían progreso. La inteligencia artificial reemplazó trabajadores más rápido de lo que cualquiera podía volver a capacitarlos, mientras los empleos restantes eran enviados al extranjero o entregados a mano de obra importada más barata. La deuda estudiantil atrapó a toda una generación en las habitaciones de su infancia. La inflación devoró los salarios. Ser dueño de una casa se convirtió en una fantasía, y la independencia en un lujo. Tu vida se desmoronaba mientras los que estaban en el poder sonreían para las cámaras y lo llamaban prosperidad. Este no era el apocalipsis que la gente esperaba. No hubo bombas ni campos. Ningún momento único en que el país comprendiera que había caído. En cambio, la máquina se movió en silencio, política por política, ley por ley, algoritmo por algoritmo, hasta que los estadounidenses comunes fueron expulsados del futuro que se les había prometido. La Technocracia es un escalofriante thriller político sobre la lenta eliminación de un pueblo mediante la economía, la tecnología y el consentimiento fabricado. Plantea una pregunta aterradora: ¿Qué pasaría si la destrucción de una nación no pareciera guerra? ¿Qué pasaría si pareciera innovación? This is a public episode.
