The Know-It-Alls: The Rise of Silicon Valley as a Political Powerhouse and Social Wrecking Ball

Discover the untold story of Silicon Valley and its impact on our economy, culture, and politics in the captivating book, The Know-It-Alls: The Rise of Silicon Valley as a Political Powerhouse and Social Wrecking Ball. Written by esteemed technology columnist Noam Cohen, this book is an undeniable eye-opener that delves into the pervasive influence of Silicon Valley's titans on our society.

From the early days at Stanford University to the present, Cohen traces the journey of influential figures like Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, Sergey Brin, Larry Page, and Mark Zuckerberg as they embraced a radically individualistic ideal and turned it into an ideology that is shaping America. These extremely wealthy men have systematically sidelined institutions like unions, libraries, and public schools, all in the name of creating a supposedly efficient market economy through the Internet.

The unintended consequences of this Silicon Valley ideology became painfully evident during Donald Trump's victory in the presidential election. The spread of fake news and hateful ideas on platforms like Facebook and Twitter showcased the disregard for consequences that technology giants exhibited. The very communities left behind by Silicon Valley's meritocratic beliefs turned to Trump in frustration.

Are we willing to sacrifice civility, empathy, and collaboration for the sake of a disruptive economy where each of us is our own start-up? The Know-It-Alls poses this critical question and sheds light on the failures of self-proclaimed geniuses when it comes to protecting the foundations of democracy.
