Naomi Klein: ‘Extreme wealth has a deranging effect. It turns you into a supremacist’
Summary
The Guardian interview with Naomi Klein discusses her book End Times Fascism (co-authored with Astra Taylor), arguing that extreme wealth among tech billionaires fuels anti-democratic trends and a privatized, climate- and financially-driven world. It traces how Davos-era elites, private contractors, and figures like Musk, Thiel, and Bezos shape politics and society, and it advocates for wealth- and tech-disarmament movements with real-world organizing examples in Memphis.
