We've built a monster. And the monster is positioning itself to replace every single one of us. Right now, CEOs in all major and minor corporations throughout all industries are consulting with providers of AI solutions on how to reduce their human workforce, how to train the machines

The goal of the technocratic Decision Makers has always been to bring all the things under centralized control. To achieve this seemingly unattainable goal they came up with a simple plan based on the old concepts of fear and hope, reward and punishment, the carrot and the stick and the

I signed up for X the other day. It's essentially the same platform I signed up to when it was still known as Twitter, just a little more pro free speech and a little less of a bot farm than it used to be. Liberals hate what'

Not that long ago, your phone, your car, your home, your office were not spying on you. Well, maybe your phone was just a little, and most likely your neighbors too, but if your government wanted to surveil you 24/7 it would have to manually place a guard in
