Trump advisor Curtis Yarvin calls for replacing democracy with corporate rule

Curtis Yarvin’s stated ultimate goal is to replace democratic government with a corporate monarchy ruled by tech billionaires (“American Caesar” model).

Yarvin’s “patchwork” proposal requires residents to carry RFID tracking cards and meet income thresholds to move between corporate-controlled territories.

As a “humane alternative to genocide,” Yarvin has proposed permanently confining “unproductive” individuals in solitary cells connected to immersive virtual-reality interfaces.

Yarvin has mischaracterized Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal expansion—claiming FDR effectively demanded ‘‘absolute power’’—to justify ignoring constitutional limits on executive authority.

In 2025, Yarvin debated political theorist DADanielle Allen at Harvard University on the future of democracy.

His surveillance blueprint calls for RFID tracking, genetic profiling (genotyping), iris scanning, security cameras, and continuous location monitoring.

The so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by EMElon Musk, is reported to have fired over 30,000 federal employees across agencies such as the FDA, National Park Service, and FAA under Yarvin’s RAGE (Retire All Government Employees) strategy.

Yarvin’s slogan “No Voice, Free Exit” means removing democratic voting rights (“voice”) while preserving the theoretical option to move between corporate territories (“exit”).

Yarvin once wrote, apparently in jest, that “unproductive” people could be “converted into biodiesel, which can help power the Muni buses,” illustrating his willingness to treat human beings as disposable resources.
