Twilight of the Elites is over 10 years old and still one of the best books which explains our current predicament. I imagine that brings you a bit of pride and regret. I imagine your new book may similarly remain relevant for a long time.

I’m not looking forward to seeing this administration’s abuse of the media/social media ecosystem however…

Thanks for your insights Chris. I dunno, I've been feeling awfully prescient myself lately. Must get your book.

Why does King Kong have no watch or phone?
