Anticipatory compliance: when you change your behavior to meet perceived expectations before anyone asks.
Self-censoring on social media. Conforming to workplace culture. Avoiding "controversial" topics.
No force required. The most effective control is getting people to control themselves.

"Be professional" often translates to: suppress your cultural identity, manage white comfort, conform to dominant norms.
These aren't neutral expectations—they're social control mechanisms that maintain power structures while appearing virtuous.
Women of color face disproportionate "likability" requirements that white men never encounter.

A longstanding page promoting a satirical book I self-published got taken down by #Meta yesterday. The book is critical of Trump, and all of a sudden it "violates community standards." It's a reminder: on corporate social media, we have no First Amendment freedoms. #oligarchy #socialmedia #socialcontrol #algorithms #X

"It is true that Silicon Valley is home to a horde of reactionaries that pine for a modernity free of liberalism, as well as gripped by a delusion that society would be best served under their dominion. But why? If we are going to offer a theory such as techno-authoritarianism, we have to have some theory about why there is such a break. LaFrance offers us a tautology: these individuals accelerating the pace of our innovation and the triumph of digital technologies owe it to ideas that prioritize accelerating our innovation and the triumph of digital technologies.
The sad truth is this: Silicon Valley and its reactionaries are chickens coming home to roost. Silicon Valley is not some Promethean flame we smuggled from Olympos. Technology is not some primordial force corrupted by libertarian nerds with too much money. It's of the real world, it's material, it's influenced by the forces of history as much as anything else. Those forces come out of choosing to prioritize technology that helps us undertake surveillance for commerce, advertising, imperial adventure, speculation, and political suppression. The existential threat posed by today's tech capitalist overlords will get much worse. The funny ideas they have about their divine right to rule, their suspicion of competition and democracy, and other people who do not look like them—well, that's how we got here in the first place."
