Over the last thirty years, the East Coast establishment has been busy blowing up other countries, blowing financial bubbles, and blowing the coronavirus response.
It’s not wholly geographical of course.

There are plenty of folks physically located on the East Coast with a tech state of mind.

And there are plenty of technologists working remote, especially these days.

But the East Coast is where the press and state are headquartered.
The story of the last 30 years is the rise of Asia, the rise of technology, and the decline of the East Coast establishment.

That’s the state, the press, Wall Street, academia.

The NY/DC/Boston corridor has less and less control over world events. Corona is the latest ignominy.
