The "feudal" part implies the productive assets of the 21st century are monopolized and owned by Big Tech, and even the capital class has to pay rent for access to this.

It doesn't mean people are literally serfs on their lords manor growing substance crops. Are you serious?

This is completely false. The owners of big tech must pay capitalists like the owners of TSMC to produce the chips to power their services. Just because we don't produce the chips in the US does not mean that there isn't a distinct commodity producing class.

You are the first person I've seen try and say TSMC, Broadcom, etc aren't "big tech" lol
