“The marriage of Silicon Valley billionaires and far-right MAGA voters has given rise to ‘end-times fascism’ characterized by ‘monstrous, supremacist survivalism’, author Naomi Klein writes in her latest essay with Astra Taylor for The Guardian. Klein describes tech oligarchs preparing for an apocalyptic end to life on Earth, fueled by the carbon emissions generated by the companies they own, by escaping to bunkers or through colonizing Mars. Capital & Main’s Cerise Castle spoke with Klein on Wednesday about what she sees as the path forward at the University of California, Los Angeles’ Nimoy Theater in Westwood ahead of her lecture ‘Fascism or Eco-Populism—Our Stark Choice’, presented by the UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy.” (05/13/25)
