Weaponized Data & Tech

FacebookGuns.png

Every year it seems like more and more information is being turned against populations in an attempt to divide and control them. Russia and China are the devil! Russia supports Trump! China supports Biden! Antifa are domestic terrorists! Boogaloo are domestic terrorists! All political enemies of the state are terrorists! Rah Rah Rah! Let's bring all these weapons of war home to deal with the problem. That'll show em!

100 seconds to midnight

For most everyone, this used to be a measure of how close the world was to nuclear obliteration. Can we really say the same today? Personally I say we've reached zero seconds if the entire planet becomes centralized and everyone is wearing a slave crown like some kind of Borg Collective.

Technology is increasing exponentially; this happened 12 years ago. Why aren't we getting regular updates on the ability to control machines with our minds? Because the more progress we make in that regard the more it becomes a military technology and the ultimate form of control. Simple as that; this applies to many other technologies as well. We will continue to hear rumors and whispers or be fooled into thinking the military industrial complex isn't lightyears ahead of the public sector.

5G

Rolling out 5G wireless internet is not a profitable business model unless those who control it are seeking to control everything. The overhead cost of implementing the system is not going to pay for itself unless the bulk of the human population becomes further enslaved.

Not to worry, people don't like to be enslaved, so the strategy here is to let technology create massive abundance, scoop the vast majority of gains for the elite, and then give the scraps to the rabble while calling it progress. I love capitalism.

Let's invest in our own captivity!

It almost makes we want to throw a long-shot bet into IOTA. Hell, it literally has "internet of things" in the name! We already know the establishment wants to roll out the Internet of Things via 5g, so wouldn't it be stupid not to invest in the one crypto claiming to target that exact reality? (At least a little bit, say $100). Then again, I had the same thought about Ripple's XRP and I have since cashed out my $100 because I like to put my money where my mouth is.

Cancel Culture Has Been Weaponized

Above my bed hangs this poster:

  • Trust Women!
  • Read Real News!
  • Believe in Science!

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/edicted/cjRM6t3L-capitalist-science.png

All good things!

Right? Until the deceivers come in and corrupt everything. Science is undermined by capitalism. Who decides what is real news and what isn't? If I trust all women blindly how hard is it to inject lies into that narrative?

We seemingly cannot win with all the misinformation that becomes weaponized against the innocent (and even against the guilty). Negative reinforcement proves time and time again to be a flawed motivator at best. After all, most people don't get caught, and people love to gamble, especially when cheating is so celebrated (think performance enhancing drugs and capitalism at large).


COVID-19

Truly, this post was supposed to be about our current situation; I don't know how I got so sidetracked. This psyop is getting quite out of hand, as many of my dear readers of course already realize.

These fear-tactics are never-ending!

Frightening and socially embarrassing people into taking a forced vaccine. And make no mistake; it will be forced, as the punishment for not taking the vaccine will slowly escalate until they have the numbers that they want. $250 for not wearing a mask in public. Immunization papers and roadblocks to travel. My roommates can not fucking wait to get that vaccine. I cringe when they talk about it. Maybe enough people will accept it so that I don't have to? Silver lining.

Antifa Fascists!

The irony of this reality is palpable. Forcing people to do these things because of the "greater good"? You sound like a fucking Nazi. I am so disappointed that the left side of the spectrum that I hail from are the ones perpetrating this bullshit. How the fuck am I gonna tell my friends and family there's no god damn way I'm taking that vaccine? Now I'm the idiot chucklehead that "doesn't believe in science"? Fuck!

Dumbass anti-vaxxer

It's just like people who believe they can convict someone and send them into the torture chamber under the premise of "beyond a reasonable doubt". There will always be reasonable doubt when the authority itself proves time and time again that they can not be trusted. They do not value transparency or the actual truth; they only care about their tribe winning. Tribalism is the cancer holding our species back from scaling up to amazing potential.


I swear this whole anti-vaxxer thing was seeded in advance on purpose to discredit that precise group today. Seed the outrageous claims today so you can discredit the more legitimate worry of tomorrow.

Well played, assholes.


Amazon SMF5

I haven't talked about work in a while, but SMF5 sort center has been ramping up their "security" measures like crazy. It's full on like going to the airport now. Thanks for the illusion of safety guys! I've been working max-length shifts ever since California was closed back down. Profits are being raked in like a flood.

I can fully see how many people are getting sick around me just by how the company responds. Then they tell us about it weeks later and I backtrack and tell myself, "yeah that makes sense". Lot of people getting sick at SMF5 right now. Funny how they took away our hazard pay before we started getting infected. Although looks like I just got 8 text messages this morning that I just saw that are adding some of that hazard pay back in the short term.

Temp checks not effective.

They are still doing temperature checks at the front door with an IR-scanner. No way to get into the building without having your temp checked and wearing a mask. I've always questioned the accuracy of these temp checks, and now even moreso.

They've also very recently added these blast shield things to the sorting lanes that have the appearance of helping, but I can't help but laugh at how stupid they are. They've divided up the lanes using transparent pieces of plastic, but in doing so have blocked paths and added dozens of bottlenecks in the building that force people to get closer to one another in a lot of situations.


I know exactly what they were thinking. I can see it now someone pitching this idiotic idea in some stupid boardroom and everyone thinking it was great.

That's corporate America for you.


As time progresses, it feels more and more like these measures are simply being implemented to provide the illusion of safety just like the airport. It's like small microgressions against privacy and self-sovereignty to get us used to being constantly controlled and violated in these small ways that add up. Wouldn't want that frog to jump out the pot!

Do I think Amazon/Bezos are part of some grand global conspiracy to make this all happen? Not really. Corporate America is very predictable. If scientists get paid to say temp checks and all this other shit is necessary, that's what's going to happen because these businesses want to stay open and making money.

And make money, they are!

I've been calling this recent stint 'COVID CHRISTMAS'. I get a few chuckles with that at work. Even better, we randomly got a shipment of red and green plastic wrap (never before has been colored) so the theme is ever-present.

I'm no stranger to data manipulation.

There are plenty of times I've withheld information in my blog because it did not suit my agenda or point I was making. No one is objective 100% of the time. Take the article above for example. I could easily source it to justify extreme measures or that this is all some authoritarian scam.

The big scare they've been pushing recently is that you lose your antibodies to COVID after a few weeks. Talk about a justification for mandating constant vaccinations. That being said, this particular article is actually pretty centrist, so one could viably us it to support either side of the argument. That's just the way it is.

It is also hinting that getting the virus a second time will be worst than the first, but also argues the opposite. So many ways to manipulate the data. Doesn't even matter if people try to fact-check it. Once it's out there many readers aren't going to look any farther than that. The echo chamber has spoken.

Conclusion

Words are stronger than weapons. This has always been true, but now as we forge ahead into this crazy data and technology driven reality it becomes exponentially more relevant. It can be hard to stay optimistic, especially when the people on your side shrug their arms when it comes to a solution. However, I believe humanity is on the brink of rapid evolution, so who knows where we will actually end up. Life finds a way.
