Fucking Election 2024

There's a meme going around making the point that the 2024 election is not about the lesser of two evils, but that 46 is the indisputably true Human being; that is, compared to you know who. Having been in a life career teaching Human Beingness based on fundamental scientific factualities, I have no idea where to begin to unpack that comparison of the two, at this date presumptive, candidates. I will make some observations.  ALERT! Political bias may be on full display.  Seems we're into a level of political competition that puts the fate of the world on the line. My opponent is the end of the world as we know it. No! Your's is! Black and white. Trust. Whom? Do you reflect even that your point of view is just a product of all the media propaganda you've been fed like a fattened Goose? [Did you know there's a statistic that 80% don't read past the headlines.] Time for that Jesus moment, folks.  We're at an end of an era. End of an age. Lots of conflict in the...

AI ... Spawn of the Devil? “We must realize that modern civilization is thoroughly oriented towards dehumanizing humanity in every possible way; that is to say, we are fast turning into robots or statues with no human souls.

But, this: "Ignorant", as in taking the false to be real, and the real to be false. Living distracted by the phantasmagoria. "Asshole" is the le mot juste on that. The foundation basis for Artificial Intelligence is the idea that, if information is good, lots of it is better. And, what could be better than all the information, aggregated and considered by an oh-so-smart computer. Who would argue with that? A computer what got it's origin inputs from who knows and where.

Leadership 2024 It’s currently now the year 2024, and in the US of A we’re gonna vote for President this November.  Some choice. Each side making the strenuous case for a mountain of evidence that the other is ... THE WORST!  Hate. Hate. Hate. Black and white. You like him — the red one ... we will cancel you! You like him — the blue one... we'll cancel you!! Third party candidate gets your vote? ... we'll both cancel you!!! Is that what we want from our leaders? For ourselves.  Unless you are already so unconsciously soaked in whichever's narrative side of the aisle propaganda what's been drilled into your head, you most probably lack the self awareness to see above the fray. Or even comprehend there might be another way to look at it. Or — amazing — that there's a level of perspective that sees the game for what it is. A game. Just to win you and me to a side and then steer the ship of state in the right direction. And, maybe, cash in a bit to boot. The saintly Ob...
