Journalist Gil Duran argues that tech fascism stems from a venture capital system that has run out of unicorns and now, in his words, hunts 'Antichrists' to feed its drive for acceleration.

The remark is drawing attention as criticism of Silicon Valley investors and their political influence.

Why now: Growing debate over Silicon Valley leaders' political alignments keeps criticism of venture capital culture in the spotlight.
