Hello, and welcome to "E Pluribus Unum," where we peel back the layers of rhetoric to understand who truly benefits from the systems being built around us. I’m Jacqueline Keeler, and today, we're staring into the digital abyss being carved out by what I call "Digital Manifest Destiny."
We'll talk about the self-proclaimed tech saviors who look more like colonizers, the politicians paving over our lands for their server farms, and the global allies finally saying, 'Enough.' Most importantly, we'll talk about the real human cost of this unchecked power—and who truly pays the bill.
Today, we're dissecting the very ground beneath our feet, both literally and figuratively. From the concrete landscapes of Hillsboro, Oregon, to the shifting sands of global finance, it's clear: the "American Dream" is being re-written, and it's looking less like a dream and more like a land claim by a few powerful men.
