A searing insight into the radicalization of Silicon Valley, from Elon Musk to Peter Thiel, David Sacks and Donald Trump, and how it will affect the future of all our lives.
** A PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BEST BOOK OF 2025 **
** A FINANCIAL TIMES BEST BOOK OF 2025 **
'Lively and provocative.' FINANCIAL TIMES
'Makes a convincing case for how tech became radicalized.' BLOOMBERG
'Revelatory.' THE BULWARK
'sharp and ominous...an essential unmasking of the growing extremism among America’s wealthy.' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
What happens if the world’s richest and most powerful men decide to dismantle democracy?
In Gilded Rage, New York Times bestselling author Jacob Silverman takes us inside the surreal, high-stakes world of Silicon Valley. This is the story of the political awakening and radicalization of a cabal of tech billionaires and their descent into ideological extremism. Flush with cash from the zero-interest era, addicted to their own mythology, these men have began reshaping the world in their image -- and it should terrify us all.
At the center is Elon Musk, the mogul whose obsession with the “woke mind virus” has turned him from a tech innovator to an ideological crusader. But Musk is just the beginning. Silverman maps a sprawling network of radicalized elites - from Peter Thiel and JD Vance to the financiers bankrolling Donald Trump’s return - who are using their platforms and their money to ensure a political revolution that’s already underway.
Silverman travels from San Francisco to Miami, New York to DC, following a movement that’s rewriting the rules and oftentimes fighting a war against reality itself. With sharp reporting and a cast of extraordinary characters, Gilded Rage is a gripping, essential dispatch from the front lines of the billionaire revolution.
