This is my definition of the New Political Wave.
The German-origin President and South African-origin chief DOGE advisor of a powerful country like the U.S. promote xenophobic policies in a nation where they are not citizens.
Interestingly, Germany’s far-right AfD party relies on the support of this same advisor—who is not of their origin—to advance its xenophobic agenda and gather votes. This highlights the deep opportunism and hypocrisy in politics. It is a prime example of globalist far-right movements shaped by capital power: Global Capital fuels local nationalist and Xenophobic rhetoric to consolidate its own influence.
Artificial Intelligence and the New Industrial Revolution: Xenophobia, Political Manipulation, and Techno-Feudalism
Are we aware or are we really not smart as much they want us to believe them?
If you’ve read the rest of the article, it means you’re somewhat aware.
While artificial intelligence (AI), social media, and technological advancements usher in a new industrial revolution, this transformation profoundly affects not only the economy but also politics and society. However, this process also brings about a system called “techno-feudalism.” In this system, tech giants and wealthy oligarchs use xenophobia and nationalist rhetoric to increase their power. So, does this serve their interests? Absolutely yes.
Techno-feudalism is a system where a handful of tech giants and wealthy oligarchs act like modern feudal lords in the digital world. These groups consolidate their economic and political power by controlling our data, attention, and political preferences. Polarizing rhetoric like xenophobia and nationalism has become an effective tool to maintain and expand this power.

Xenophobia and nationalism distract attention from the real problems by dividing societies. Instead of fundamental issues like economic inequality, unemployment, and social injustice, people’s anger is directed toward groups seen as “the other.” This helps oligarchs and tech giants prevent the questioning of injustices in the system.
Xenophobia allows oligarchs to maintain their power by preventing people from focusing on real problems. When societies are divided, people fight each other while those in power continue to run their affairs in the background. Tech giants collect more data through polarizing content and use this data for political manipulation or advertising revenue.
Artificial intelligence further strengthens these strategies of the oligarchs. AI can analyze people’s behaviors and direct them toward fear and anger-based content. This allows xenophobic rhetoric to spread faster and be adopted more deeply.
Social media has become one of the most powerful tools of this manipulation. Platforms analyze users’ interests and emotional responses through their algorithms and direct them towards specific content. This allows polarizing rhetoric like xenophobia and nationalism to spread faster. At the same time, social media has become a tool used by oligarchs and tech giants to control society.
However, another dimension of this manipulation is supporting policies that lower the quality of education. Oligarchs and power holders prefer people to remain ignorant and in a state of mental laziness. Because it is much easier to manage a society that does not think, question, and lacks a critical perspective. This strategy includes the weakening of education systems, the restriction of access to information, and the disregard for media literacy.
Look at events like Brexit, the 2016 and 2024 US elections, and the recent German elections. Extracting all groups and their genetics with AI shows how simple algorithm adjustments can be manipulated.
They try to dumb us down with distraction techniques, mind games on social media, and AI amplification, ignoring real problems. What we need to think about is whether we are the ones being dumbed down or if we are the ones being made dumb. Or are these people who know we are dumb the second-degree culprits? Or are we the main culprits?
So, are people becoming more aware of these manipulations, or can fear-based narratives still easily influence them? Although increased access to information and critical discourse make some segments more conscious, the emotional appeal of such rhetoric continues in times of economic uncertainty and social change.
I thought and wrote. You at least read and think!!
Reading this article probably happened despite the algorithm’s block. Perhaps if you’ve read this, both you and I are lucky.
Are we aware?
