> technocratic authoritarianism
I really like when philosophers misatribute the current issues of society to some sort of a "wrong choice of philosophy" kind of situation.
Jesus Christ, the reason "technocratic authoritanianism" is in action is because tech is the latest niche on the bandwagon of rich nouveau.
Of course these would be correlated as people look up to people who recently became billionaires.
Everybody at the age of 40 could think "If I made all the right choices I would have been them".
On top of this, the whole tech industry is still operating in legally gray areas as we didn't have enough time to build our legal codexes to deal with these issues.
Here's your technical auhtoritanianism. You could say the same about East India Company or Big Oil in the past.
Nothing to do with Kant.
