Silicon Valley technologists exiting California should move to Starbase, Texas. Tech won 97.74% of the vote there. It’s populated by engineers. It’s what tech used to be. And Elon is the de facto mayor. This is how tech wins democratically. Voting with feet, wallet, and ballot.

Quoted context

These are the quoted author’s words.

Democracy is creating startup cities. Moving to Starbase was voting with feet. Building up Starbase was voting with wallet. And incorporating Starbase was voting with ballot. This is the future of democracy. Not a two-party system with the illusion of choice. Instead, a 1000-city system with the reality of choice.
