The Cephalopod

many tentacles lighten the load

I’m utterly fascinated by the World of art that is being generated by these AI programs, but this morning one post caught my eye and reminded me on an older post I had created on FB a couple of years back, so I pulled it out and will present it to you here, unedited from that time. Since then I’ve found it illuminating to watch all the various connections and actors revolving around MIT, and it’s various students and alumni. Please let me know what you think!

OP oct 26, 2021:

https://www.facebook.com/andrew.corner.5/posts/pfbid02q5hVA68dqjeuZ9W2k4LLJya3tMiDdBNmArr865NTiB3sU6bQmM4VJ47akE3K7WJDl

I reached out to someone who used to be a good friend before all this nonsense started with a silly little text that read: “believe me yet?”.

The last time I saw him was about a year ago. I told him, at that time, what this was all about and where it’s going. I laid it out, plain and simple, as I have done, over and over, for months now, trying to get people to recognize the magnitude of this shift we’re being pushed into by, at best, disingenuous actors for the most part, Ideologues at best, and hubristic sociopathy at the worst.

I will do so again now.

If you would be so kind as to lend me a few of your minutes, I would like to know how YOU feel.

This is a war against Human Freedom. Of that, there is little doubt.

The “how” is by making the case that we all must comply with the “new normal” rules, or face exile from the “system”.

I said that a year ago and it is now explicit. How could I have known where this was going? I’m not psychic, and I’m no genius.

Because “they” have already TOLD us where this is going.

The “Who”, is, well, at least in part the WHO. In part the WEF. In part the UN. And in part the CCP, and yes the US, and the CDC. What I’m saying is, this is being run by group think, and pre programmed instinctual mob-like behavior.

This is the cephalopod in action. Cephalopods like octopuses have an interesting feature where the limbs can operate independently of the brain, and have their own neural network, but the goal remains the same.

Feed the host.

The “why”?

In total it is the actualized efforts of people who agree on several key points.

Anthropogenic “climate change” is an existential threat. This is the most prominent mantra, but it has a deeper meaning.

It means Human beings are too decadent, and foolish to be left to their own devices.

We are entering the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and now is the time to change what it means to be a Human.

The “when” is NOW. We are in it NOW.

To quite my old buddy Klaus, “Now is the Historical moment! Ze time! Not only to fight ze REAL virus…”

Side note, WTAF. “Ze “real” “virus”!” Am I hearing that right? You tell me. I’ve listened a hundred times. But I digress.

“…but to SHAPE ze SYSTEM..”

Time for what most regular people will say?

Here is what the “partners” THINK.

Now is the time to embrace the “bio-digital convergence”, not only because it sounds cool, but because we THINK we can. We THINK we can simply mess with the essence of Life. We THINK it’s all just a matter of rearranging the molecules, and since we can, or so we CLAIM, that means we SHOULD.

It is time to “evolve” past what our outdated “programming” makes us “think” is important, and become the new “transhuman” that we predict we can fashion with the emergence of new technologies that bring us closer and closer to the “singularity”, the point at which technology meets science fiction.

It’s on our doorstep, so evolve or die.

But also, what’s the harm? They all get to act out their wildest dreams, and literally take control of all the things. What a rush it must be to accept this narrative. I can honestly see the appeal. And I can honestly hear the reasoning. We are not perfect, are we?

There is also the matter of channeling “resources”, which we believe are finite, and if we don’t use them the way we SHOULD, it is a de facto LOSS of those resources. At least, for the people who think they should be the ones in control of them. Besides, they’re putting us all out of business if we’re not one of the “Stakeholder Capitalism”’s “Great Reset Partners”.

Even more, continuing down this path will eventually lead to conflict.

Techno, Bio, Nuclear, it’s all so troubling.

Death and destruction if left to our own devices. That seems to be the point.

This is an inherently negative view of Freedom, and of Humanity. Yet, we all identify, on SOME level, do we not? It’s scary to not know what the future will bring, and so any number of trade offs are worth it for stability.

Plus, for members of the cult, this can have rewards.

Many, many rewards. Unfathomable. I can see the appeal.

You want to be Super Humans. I get it. But at what cost?

The only measurements we’re taking right now are future liabilities. This cult has “sustainability” as the mantra. That means, the ethos, or driving force, is ALL about minimizing liabilities.

Do you see it now? Can you hear them now? If you’re part of the crowd standing by watching this all happen, did you tacitly agree, even before now, and so you’re just letting the now happen?

I bet a lot identify with this notion. I know they do. I hear it often.

The “where” is everywhere. The cephalopods limbs move independently to feed the host.

The food is “data” the stimulates the transhuman brain.

Silicone over substance is the bargain.

Your Soul is a mere echo that pales in comparison to the God like powers that await you if you follow through. For many, they actually buy that.

Personally, I find it repulsive. A Luddite I suppose.

The “what”. The what is the what are we giving up for the why.

My friends response to my question “Do you believe me yet.”, was

“Honestly, if this is some conspiracy horse-shit I don’t want to hear it. I have bigger problems…”.

Every day it’s incredible to me how many people think that we can ignore the reality of what is currently transpiring,

It’s disappointing when you have someone that you thought was smart enough to talk a good game, but had no idea they were THAT susceptible to mind control. We all are on some levels I suppose. That’s part of the Human condition.

Our time is limited here. Fleeting. We make choices based on self interest, that much is true. But for me, it’s simply too cynical to let it stand there.

I want romance, chance, a little excitement. And of course, a challenge.

We grow through challenge. We evolve through the journey that IS Life. Every choice we make affects the outcome. We need to properly orient ourselves. Some will and some won’t. But we need to think bigger, and more often. We DO need to be better, don’t we?

But what about those who started with less?

Be serious. Right now, they’re the ones being screwed the hardest to assuage the fears of the people engaging in the plan.

Don’t give me your BS. You’re playing the zero sum game. Admit it.

But what’s the alternative?

The Romantic in me sees the challenge as the reward.

But that’s the big lie, isn’t it? That we can simply remove risk with algorithms and genetic manipulation?

That we can, if we could, simulate the known Universe if we can muster the computational power seems to be a special kind of insanity to me when we have so much MORE we could PRACTICALLY do, if we just started telling the TRUTH.

Radical honesty. A while back I made a post based on a mind fart as my brain is oft to do.

The only way out of a World engulfed in lies is RADICAL HONESTY.

I also admitted to my friend and another who was in the car at that time, as I try to do over and over, the only thing I am sure of is that I know nothing for sure. But in my gut, and in my basic understandings regarding Human Beings and society, this is no benign action.

The difference between how the people I tend to identify with more, and the predominant goals of our current “Elitist” class, is that we don’t see Humans as irredeemable, or our World direction as irreconcilable if society stays open to make mistakes.

To at least TRY to be better, on our OWN terms.

In truth the way the way I see as being preferable has more unknowable moving parts, and they don’t necessarily feed the head of the machine cephalopod. It takes more faith, and less algorithms.

It requires MORE freedom, but doesn’t create the kind of stability that the system is now trying to deploy, for all the “right” reasons.

It is PRO Human.

Organic.

It has warts, but is ripe with flavor, not of the artificially injected variety, and it has less guaranteed harvest, but scarcity demands sacrifice.

I agree, we all need to learn to sacrifice something, but I disagree it should be our Soul, if there is such a thing, and if this action tells us anything, it is that many of us who identify with having a “Soul”, can feel deeply to our cores something is not right.

But what of the Soul? What makes it different than a simple bio-chemical response to stimuli?

It is connected to the Earth, and demands we put in the time, not just the fuel. And it certainly doesn’t have the best PR money can buy.

It requires that people put in the effort, and the WORST part is, it says that we must have FAITH in Mankind.

It is a choice, not a demand.

I choose Humanity.

What about you?

If this resonates with you, please share it, and let me know how you feel.

We are, after all, One species. We should have a say in our OWN Future, free from the cult of transhumanism.

But it won’t be easy. Nothing worth having is.

This is not the end of the discussion if it’s your first time hearing it.

Just the beginning.

Much Love to my fellow Humans.
