Public Forum: A Marxist Critique of Techno-Feudalism

Some people say we’re no longer living under capitalism, but under something new: “techno-feudalism.” With companies like Amazon and Google controlling huge parts of our lives, it can feel like we’re ruled by powerful digital landlords. But is this really a new system, or just capitalism in a high-tech form? This meeting will look at what techno-feudalism means and whether it helps us understand today’s world—or just confuses things.

We'll discuss how Marxist ideas still apply to the modern tech economy and why terms like techno-feudalism might distract us from the real problem: the power of capital over workers. Come along to learn, share ideas, and join the conversation about how socialists should understand and fight back in the digital age.
