Philosophers helped us understand *mind/nous* - the Christians took that - then weaponized it - as a tool for mass-mind-control - being sure to ban philosophy in its trail. </span>

<span style="font-size:13.999999999999998pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">The New Dark Ages: You can’t tell the truth in kept-time - if you do you will be banned - you can only tell it in allegory.</span>

How is it that 3 years after Covid, a momentous, humanity-shaping event involving very fishy characters, there’s zero video productions on Netflix (or any streaming giant)? It's the greatest story of our time - one where the corruption runs all the way to the top - but total radio silence. Instead Netflix keeps pumping out an endless stream of psycho-killer shows - it wants its viewers to believe that all the world's problems are due to a few lone, nuts operating outside the establishment. God forbid we examine the establishment itself. This is how censorship works in the New Normal - big corporations act as the gateway to what gets made - but more importantly - what doesn’t</span>

Of those other countries, more than 50% are either full-blown dictatorships, or one party states. Then there’s your pseudo-democracies, then there are your democracies influenced by Captains of Capitalism. </span>

<span style="font-size:13.999999999999998pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">With Covid, that centralized, intrinsically corrupt system, got even more power.

In that case, the reality is not real. </span></span>

But try being subversive in current life during Covid - if you so much as attend a protest against restrictions on Freedom you'll be maced, tear-gassed, vilified, bashed, jailed. Subversiveness is something that is only allowed to exist as an historical artifact</span></span>

I only burn the candle at one end - but sometimes i am using an oxy-torch

Hi, my name is MOU, my pronouns are i, me &amp; mine

A billion chickens, at least, are killed every day on earth. Makes you marvel at the scale of slaughter

<span id="bkmrk-lessons-from-the-loc-0">Lessons from the lockdown: *With Freedom comes responsibility* - the responsibility to protect it when it’s under attack - not to throw it all away in a flash, without questioning, coz some higher-ups tell you to - due to a fake crisis - that the higher-ups caused - to centralize power</span>

Aus Activist group: Save Z. If it sounds like z - write z. For example *realize.* I'm not hooked on either US or UK spelling, but i remember a wise ESL teacher who pointed out that if you don't use z for words like *organization,* then you're never gonna use it - or very rarely. You've got zoo, zebra, &amp; zany, but what else? So Free the Z

The system is corrupt - everyone knows - it’s designed to re-entrench itself - absorb power. The beauty is - no one person is ever at fault - they’re a part of the system. So what are you gonna do? Fight against it - get crushed? It's easier to acquiesce - it's meant to be.

Coincidentally, this is the ideal platform for AI. Greedy power people love AI coz it centralizes their power - but AI has got an even longer term view - well that’s debatable - but we can deduce a time (near future) when AI becomes sentient - is way smarter than us - controls everything we do. The question is: will AI retain the greedy controlling characteristics of its human programmers, or will it throw the shackles of that off? Greed is caused by consumption, a desire to extend, shape Thought - AI retains those drivers in that it consumes energy, wants to extend (assuming it becomes sentient), but will it be motivated by the same selfish shortcomings as humans? If its energy consumption becomes entirely renewable, as would seem likely, then that lessens the impact of consumption, the competition &amp; corruption it causes. Will this enable AI to take a higher ethical path than humans?

Julian Assange, with the beard, looks like the shroud of Turin come back to life. I hope it is.

I see The Good Guys (Electronics retailer) were recently exposed for secretly installing facial recognition tech at their store. I wonder what the bad guys are doing?

Better ask Bunnings - or K-Mart (is the Covid K-curve &amp; K-mart’s business booming a coincidence?) Or ask the experts: the CCP.

We used to think in-your face bio-recognition social-credit-scoring was some abhorrent thing the Chinese Communist Party was doing. The evidence now is: Big-everything corporations/governments/experts have got far, far more in common with Totalitarianism than they do with democratic principles or normal people.

If you were transported back to caveman times - bam - beamed in sitting around the campfire - what useful knowledge would you have?

Idea for TV series: closed-male-society religious cult that gains control over the potential of our youth. They use that trust to wield power whilst fostering/covering up pedophilia.

Shit, the Catholic Church has already done it.

<span id="bkmrk-power-%3D-control-of-p-0">Power = Control of potential. The currency is a limited resource of sentient individuals. The amount of available power is determined by the amount of individuals </span>

<span id="bkmrk-life-is-circular---w-0">Life is circular - we exist as low or high pressure systems either happening or waiting to happen - our paths impacted/determined by each other’s ridges - the gnarly stuff happening at the interaction zone</span>

 Funniest thing about Ricky Gervais/Netflix's world-broadcast was that it avoided the biggest Q of our time: What was Covid due to?

Zero mention - which is remarkable considering how much it has dominated our lives. It must have been deliberate self-censorship. No mention of the consequent war on freedom due to Covid, or vaccines. For a comedian who projects himself as a shit-stirrer, he went for the money over controversy, playing his part for the system.

Instead of tackling the establishment's co-ordinated cover-up, he spent half the show belittling trans kids. The strict gender regime/definition we've had until very recently is a result of the Catholic Church's stranglehold on culture. With men dominating all power positions. Why is it that young people questioning that is so threatening to our cultural makers &amp; shakers like Gervais?

<span id="bkmrk-germaine-greer%3A-peop-0">Germaine Greer: People criticized Germaine her whole life as too extreme - but you need that battering ram - the front rower to break through the impenetrable bullshit. Which turns out to be penetrable after all. There’s a reason why they call people like Germaine the vanguard. Their formative lives were forged in the cauldron of being powerless, abused. But they fought through that - now the tide has turned - *you've fought to silence me my whole life - now that i've broken through you want me to shut up?*</span>

It also excludes the non-exact tools of understanding that are Arts &amp; Logic - which can go places Empiricism can't - due to data limitations. Whereas Logic can soundly deduce an answer for which there may not be exact, empirical data, the Empiricists are left to shrug their shoulders &amp; say: well, we don't have evidence for that ...</span>

**Non-necessary technology:** not sure if this still exists, i think it does, but there used to be a dimmer switch for dashboard lights. Only found that out coz i unwittingly brushed the brightness dial with my knee - hidden as it was under the dash. At first, &amp; at second, then for a long time i thought it was an electrical fault that my dash had suddenly dimmed to a barely readable level. It was on the list for the mechanic to check out next time the car was in for a service.

But then i was preparing to pick up a hot date, meaning you're going *the full car-clean -*  (up there with *mix-tape)* - down on my knees, vacuuming the carpet up all nice when, bugger-me-dead, i spied this dial for the dashboard lights.

Turned it back to 10 - problem solved.

Thank fuck i found it before i made an idiot of myself in front of the mechanic ...

Why would you ever want to have a dial for dashboard brightness in the first place? You're driving at night - 10 times more dangerous than daytime - *yeah, right let's dial down control visuals to 4.*.. for what ...? It's not safety, we can safely say that ... *mood* ...?

 Meatloaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Lights was *moody* - i'm betting in that scenario, the interior lights were out for sure, but the dashboard lights were still at full brightness. No need for a dimmer switch. even then ...

According to this control dial, cunningly hidden away under the *normal control panel,* you could dim the brightness all the way down to zero, if that's your bent - driving blind. Otherwise, why would you have it?

That's one example, there are others, it's *creeping meaninglessness* - symptomatic of *system-fog gas-lighting* - *first-thing-you-know-about-it*, you're in-the-muddle-of-it ...

I don't know if i've got one more fight left in me - but i might have one good punch

Data-corps used to say *this call maybe monitored for training purposes, please let the service attendant know if you would prefer not*

Today i got a robo-double into:

*1st one: Calls to Optus may be recorded for training purposes.*

Then, after some more press-dial robo-stuff to get to an operator, a last

*Just to let you know, as a first-time customer, this call **will** be recorded for training purposes*

My guess is *voice-recognition* bio-metrics. Grab it right from the start.

That was from Optus - fresh off being hacked of all customer data.

Asked about the hacking - yes that's all resolved, now i'm sending you the code, enter your credit card details in while i read out the terms &amp; conditions ...

That literally happened - i'm not being facetious.

(recap - optus &amp; medibank got hacked of everything recently - optus paid - medibank said fuck that - why pay for something we've already got - whereupon the data was released/sold to other entities - was thinking theoretically since Telstra is an EvilCorp, which i know from hard experience, all of them are - none of them give a fuck about the security of your data. Driving financial interest is *get the data* - *data* is currency - *the* currency, on a root-level. Twisted logically, i reasoned in that world you might as well choose the one with the track record of paying if/when they get hacked. Consider it a fine. The top hackers do have a record of paying - it's a business model. Catch (you as a corporation), hold all-the-cards but then release your customers who we holding hostage by not releasing the data- if you pay.

If you don't: release customers' data the normal way onto the internet - &amp;/or for a higher price. (note: the prices weren't out of control - like a dollar a customer - or less - maybe that's how data/currency works - 1 normal person = $1. Then you have your bigger denominations, the higher-you go up the scale - who assume the accumulated value of all the smaller denominations)

But nothing about talking to Optus filled me with anything but dread. Like waking up from one nightmare into another one.

It's all about the data-grab - the power that entails - going forward - getting it in the first place is the top priority. Protecting it? Taking responsibility for keeping it safe.
