AI? All About Anal Probing, Cell Hacking, Brain Draining, End of Homo Sapiens = Enter the Useless Eaters Who are Useful Data Defecators!

Not expecting much from the local rag covering anything, since the paper is once a week, like the Weekly Dime, and there are no local reporters, and the feeds from news agencies run some of the copy, but most of it is Press Flak Fucking Copy.

You think there’d be just ONE fucking sentence and person cited who doubts the wet dream of an AI Governed World.

The Oregon AI Conference, held Feb. 1-2 at the Gladys Valley Marine Studies Building at the OSU Hatfield Campus, brought an unexpected buzz of technological innovation to town. The conference drew 250 attendees, including several international participants who made the journey to the coastal community, demonstrating the growing interest in practical AI solutions for businesses of all sizes.

“We wanted to make AI accessible and actionable for everyone, regardless of their technical background or location,” said Janell Goplen, founder of Coltella, the digital agency behind the event. “Hosting this in Newport showed that you don’t need to be in a major tech hub to be part of the AI conversation — small businesses everywhere can benefit from these tools.”

It is that Brave New World, where people just don’t fucking READ or research the maligning and dangerous aspects/INTENTS of AGI and AI and VR and MR.

The conference attracted participants from health care, education, and creative industries, leading to valuable discussions about how businesses of all sizes can benefit from AI technology. This inaugural conference’s impact will continue through Coltella’s expanded presence in the community. The digital agency will open its new offices in Newport later this month, offering specialized AI integration services and ongoing education programs for local businesses and community members.

Palantir’s Tiberius, Race, and the Public Health Panopticon

The controversial data mining firm, whose history and rise has long been inextricably linked with the CIA and the national security state, will now use its software to identify and prioritize the same minority groups that it has long oppressed on behalf of the US military and US intelligence.

Operation Warp Speed, the “public-private partnership” created to produce and allocate COVID-19 vaccines to the American populace, is set to begin rolling out a mass-vaccination campaign in the coming weeks. With the expected approval of its first vaccine candidate just days away, the allocation and distribution aspects of Operation Warp Speed deserve scrutiny, particularly given the critical role one of the most controversial companies in the country will play in that endeavor.

Palantir Technologies, the company founded by Alex Karp, Peter Thiel, and a handful of their associates, has courted controversy for its supporting role in the US military occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan as well as its participation in the detention of “illegal” immigrants through their contracts with the Department of Homeland Security and in “predictive policing” law enforcement programs that disproportionately affect minority neighborhoods. Equally controversial, but perhaps lesser known, is Palantir’s long-standing and enduring ties to the CIA and intelligence community at large, which was intimately involved in the development of Palantir’s products that now run on the databases of governments and corporations around the world.

The same national-security state that Palantir has long aided in oppressing countries abroad and minorities domestically is now running Operation Warp Speed. While Palantir’s selection to manage the allocation of the vaccine to “priority groups” may just seem like the national-security state wanting to award the contract to a familiar and trusted company, the allocation strategy’s heavy focus on vaccinating minorities first, with questionable justification for doing so, suggests something else may have been behind Palantir’s selection to play a prominent role in Warp Speed.

Part 1 of this series on Operation Warp Speed and Race, “The Johns Hopkins, CDC Plan to Mask Medical Experimentation on Minorities as ‘Racial Justice,’” explored Warp Speed’s vaccine allocation plan in depth. That plan utilizes a phased approach aimed at “populations of focus” that had been identified in advance by various government organizations, including the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.

Fucking AI, no?

For some time, there have been efforts to facelift the Malthusian-transhumanist bent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution with a patina of New Age spirituality through a belief in “conscious evolution,” such as that propagated by futurist Barbara Marx Hubbard. Yet, notwithstanding Hubbard’s lofty invocation of “Christ consciousness,” her faith in conscious evolution holds that, in order to mitigate overpopulation crises, natural resources must be rationed through “sustainable development” economics while human resources must be neo-eugenically culled and biotechnologically engineered into a new transhuman species. In fact, with the blessings of Rockefeller philanthropy, Hubbard, who promoted sustainable development at the United Nations (UN) and collaborated with known Malthusians from groups like the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Club of Rome, was one of the most radical advocates of population reduction in the name of spiritual evolution.

The CDC’s Center for Forecasting and Outbreak Analytics (CFA) has partnered with the CIA-linked Palantir to cement the public-private model of invasive surveillance in “public health,” all while pushing the U.S. national security state and Silicon Valley even closer together.

The Evolution of the Militarized Data Broker — While often mythologized as having been created to champion human freedom, the internet and many of its most popular companies were directly birthed out of the national security apparatus of the United States.

In alignment with Project 2025, Trump pledges to eliminate the Dpt. of Ed and replace it with “school choice.” Rather than end federal control of education, Project 2025 education policy threatens to expand both government and corporate control of schooling in order to streamline ed-technocracy for the 4IR.

AI, fuckers, AI:

The Department of Education has already canceled some $600 million in grants for teacher training on race, social justice and other topics as part of its crusade against “woke” policies. This comes as President Donald Trump has said he wants to abolish the agency and tapped major Trump donor and former professional wrestling executive Linda McMahon to carry out that goal; she is expected to be confirmed by the Senate with little or no Republican opposition. Education scholar Julian Vasquez Heilig, who teaches at Western Michigan University, says Trump’s moves are part of “an attempt to privatize education” in the United States, with DEI used as a wedge to accomplish a larger restructuring of social structures. “Higher education hasn’t faced a crisis like this since potentially McCarthyism.”

“Higher education hasn’t faced a crisis like this since potentially McCarthyism.”

Mischaracterization of Race-Conscious Policies

The Fallacy of “Reverse Discrimination”

Diversity as a Compelling Interest

The Misrepresentation of DEI Initiatives

Conclusion

We recognize the strategy being employed here. As one Polish minister aptly described former President Trump’s approach, the tactic being used is what the Russians call razvedka boyem—reconnaissance through battle: pushing forward to see what resistance arises before adjusting the approach accordingly. The Department’s effort to curtail diversity initiatives appears to be a similar attempt to gauge the response of institutions before proceeding with further restrictive measures. We must not only recognize this maneuver but also respond with unwavering commitment to equity and inclusion.

The Department’s arbitrary 14-day compliance ultimatum is an aggressive overreach intended to intimidate institutions into immediate submission. This threat of federal funding loss is a coercive tactic designed to suppress dissent and discourage thoughtful institutional responses and constitutional freedom of speech. I urge universities and colleges to resist this unlawful directive and stand firm in their commitment to diversity and inclusion.

I fully understand that some universities will immediately comply with your demands. However, these institutions lack the courage to challenge your problematic tendencies and defend the fundamental principles of academic freedom and equity. The institutions that yield without resistance betray their mission and the students they serve.

I implore the higher education community to recognize this moment as a test of its resolve. This is a time for courage and support of policies and practices that improve our students’ success, not capitulation.

DONALD TRUMP: Whether you want lectures on ancient histories or an introduction to financial accounting or training in a skilled trade, the goal will be to deliver it and get it done properly, using study groups, mentors, industry partnerships and the latest breakthrough in computing. This will be a truly top-tier education option for the people. It will be strictly nonpolitical, and there will be no wokeness or jihadism allowed. None of that’s going to be allowed.

Most importantly, the American Academy will compete directly with the existing and very costly four-year university system by granting students degree credentials that the U.S. government and all federal contractors will henceforth recognize. The Academy will award the full and complete equivalent of a bachelor’s degree.

JASON STANLEY: Right. So, they’re targeting — they say they’re targeting critical race theory. Critical race theory is the study of the practices that keep racial inequalities present, that are hangovers from Jim Crow, the institution — and, for example, things like mortgage redlining, school segregation, housing segregation, policing practices, that were formed when cities were intentionally segregated. So, they’re targeting Black history, they’re targeting minority history, and they’re trying to replace it explicitly with patriotic education.

Now, just imagine your cartoon vision of an authoritarian country. Imagine 1984. It’s a country — George Orwell’s book. It’s a country where students pledge allegiance to the flag every day. It’s a country where, instead of knowledge and learning, they are taught to be — they’re indoctrinated.

Now, this will be done, supposedly, under the banner of classical education. The idea is we’re going to restore classical education to end “wokeness.” But let’s look at classical education. Classical education is an education that is found — whose foundational elements are the works of the ancient philosophers and ancient history, like Thucydides, Plato and Aristotle. Plato advocated removing children from their family at birth. In Plato’s Symposium, it’s normal to have relations between older male professors and their younger male students. So, the idea that classical education is there to promote Christianity and the nuclear family is simply just delusional. And it’s — as usual with this attack on schools and higher education, it’s merely an ideological facade for replacing critical inquiry with, you know, saluting the flag.

Trump posted “CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!” to his Truth Social account after the administration put an end to the daytime tolls in New York. Shortly after both the official White House X and Instagram handles posted the quote along with an image of the president in a crown standing in front of New York.

1984 vs Brave New World ► Neil Postman’s Amusing Ourselves to Death [Orwell & Huxley]

Neil Postman – Foreword to Amusing Ourselves to Death


We were keeping our eye on 1984. When the year came and the prophecy didn’t, thoughtful Americans sang softly in praise of themselves. The roots of liberal democracy had held. Wherever else the terror had happened, we, at least, had not been visited by Orwellian nightmares.

But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell’s dark vision, there was another—slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley’s vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think.

What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny “failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions.” In 1984, Huxley added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us.

This book is about the possibility that Huxley, not Orwell, was right.

Over the last year, as the presidential campaign grew increasingly bizarre and Donald Trump took us places we had never been before, I saw a spike in media references to Amusing Ourselves to Death, a book written by my late father, Neil Postman, which anticipated back in 1985 so much about what has become of our current public discourse.

At Forbes, one contributor wrote that the book “may help explain the otherwise inexplicable”. CNN noted that Trump’s allegedly shocking “ascent would not have surprised Postman”. At ChristianPost.com, Richard D Land reflected on reading the book three decades ago and feeling “dumbfounded … by Postman’s prophetic insights into what was then America’s future and is now too often a painful description of America’s present”. Last month, a headline at Paste Magazine asked: “Did Neil Postman Predict the Rise of Trump and Fake News?

Did Neil Postman Predict the Rise of Trump and Fake News?

What We Can Still Learn From His Prophetic Book More Than 30 Years Later

Did Neil Postman Predict the Rise of Trump and Fake News?

Claiming that NBC Nightly News or 60 Minutes are more damaging to the public good than The Bachelor or Duck Dynasty might be a tough sell on the surface. But as we hurdle towards President-elect Donald Trump’s looming inauguration, there has perhaps never been a better time to look back at the ideas in Neil Postman’s landmark 1985 book, Amusing Ourselves to Death, and how they apply to the age of cable news, social media, and fake news.

In Postman’s view, we would all be better off if television got worse, not better.

“I raise no objection to television’s junk,” Postman wrote. “The best things on television are its junk, and no one and nothing is seriously threatened by it. Besides, we do not measure a culture by its output of undisguised trivialities but by what it claims as significant.”

Postman, the media critic, professor and prolific author, was not concerned by the idle joys of schlock programming, but with television’s ability to swallow every corner of public discourse—news, politics, education, religion, etc.—and reduce it to trivial entertainment.

The book is every bit worth reading in its entirety, and no summary can give justice to the depths and applications of Postman’s ideas. But, generally, it is Postman’s argument that we arrived in Aldous Huxley’s dystopia of A Brave New World, not Orwell’s 1984. The electronic communications age, with television filling the role of Huxley’s pleasure drug soma, had produced a society in love with the technologies that have undone its capacity to think. “What Orwell feared were those who would ban books,” he wrote. “What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one.”

“No matter what is depicted or from what point of view, the overarching presumption is that it’s there for our amusement and pleasure,” Postman wrote. “That is why even on news shows which provide us daily with fragments of tragedy and barbarism, we are urged by the newscasters to ‘join them tomorrow.’ What for? One would think that several minutes of murder and mayhem would suffice as material for a month of sleepless nights. We accept the newscasters invitation because we know that the ‘news’ is not to be taken seriously, that it is all in fun, so to say.”

Postman contrasts the modern media environment with the pre-televisual society, identifying the Age of Reason as the height of rational argument. Public figures were known largely by their written words and not by their looks or even their oratory. “It is quite likely that most of the first 15 presidents of the United States would not have been recognized had they passed the average citizen on the street,” he wrote.

“You might get some sense of how we are separated from this kind of consciousness by thinking about any of our recent presidents; or even preachers, lawyers and scientists who are or who have recently been public figures. Think of Richard Nixon or Jimmy Carter or Billy Graham, or even Albert Einstein, and what will come to your mind is an image, a picture of a face, most likely a face on a television screen. Of words, almost nothing will come to mind. This is the difference between thinking in a word-centered culture and thinking in an image-centered culture,” he wrote.

It all comes down to this:

Comes down to the Oppen-Monster-Heimers and Albert Satanic Einstein: Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion (right) meets with Albert Einstein in the United States, 1951.

Dirt. A “no entry” sign before the construction of a nuclear center in the Negev desert, 1960s.

The Jews and their Trigger Finger and Samson Directives: Israeli nuclear center in Dimon, 2002.

Jews are the primal thieves: Israeli secret services secretly buy or steal nuclear materials all over the world. In the 1980s, the United States discovered that more than 100 kg of enriched uranium had disappeared from one of its plants. It was suspected that most of it got to Israel, but it was not possible to prove anything.

The Israeli fugitive revealed all the secrets. Itʼs about the Israeli nuclear technician Mordechai Vanunu, who worked at the nuclear center in Dimon. He secretly took more than 50 photos of the object, and in 1986 he left Israel and gave the pictures to the British press. Vanunuʼs photographs and testimony suggested that Israel had enough plutonium to build a nuclear weapon. However, there was no evidence that he actually created it. In Israel, of course, everything was denied. Shortly afterwards, the Mossad lured Vanunu from Britain to Italy, kidnapped him and brought him to Israel. There he was sentenced to 18 years. After his release, Vanunu remains in Israel under the supervision of special services, he is forbidden to leave the country.

Israel “has nuclear weapons” if the enemies ask, and it “does not have” if the allies ask. This is how it built its Schrödinger arsenal

Fucking Jews and their Fetish for Nukes: For the second week now, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has denied rumours that Ukraine wants to regain its nuclear weapons. Israel has been living with such rumours for more than half a century. Moreover, it has become the Israeli political position of “nuclear ambiguity” — neither confirming nor denying the existence of its own nuclear weapons. It began in October 1956, when the young Israeli government official Shimon Peres managed to obtain a nuclear reactor for his country. And later, by all truths and lies, including political blackmail, to build a nuclear center in the middle of the desert. Babel tells the well-known but very interesting history of Israelʼs nuclear program and mentions the most common rumours about its nuclear weapons.

Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion dreamed of his own nuclear program.

“What the Jews Einstein, Oppenheimer and Teller [Edward Teller is a member of the Manhattan Project, and later the head of the program to create the first American hydrogen bomb in 1952.] did for the United States, scientists in Israel can do for their people,” he said.

Goddamn Jews and their Fucking White Face Goyim! Golda Meir and Richard Nixon joke at a White House press conference in 1969.
