As you have noticed, the internet is absolutely insane, and the world seems to be descending into a kind of chaos that hurts the brain. It's extremely low IQ, what I call, denial of service attack of sorts
It’s absolutely clear to me that there is significant control over the information we see. I think there was more transparency during the Vietnam War in terms of journalism and footage than there is now with this war involving Iran. It feels like Goliath has near-complete control over what information we can and cannot see.
Something that stands out to me is what is being allowed to happen, the lack of censorship. During COVID-19, there were certain conversations and topics that were absolutely not allowed to take place (e.g., Robert Malone, Peter McCullough, and Bret/Heather).
But now, everyone is talking about how fake and gay everything is. There is no censorship when it comes to discourse and I have to wonder.. The censorship complex appears to be deliberately allowing more discourse to take place, and I think I know why.
In my opinion, there are two things happening:
This is why you hear things from Joe Kent, people in our government feel helpless and unable to change certain outcomes. Look, I don’t care if you love or hate Trump. I see people like him, including bibi, as puppets who speak on behalf of something else. It seems that we have some semblance of free speech, and certain conversations are happening, whether it’s intentional or not I don’t know. My hope is that people stop being mad at each other and get together someday.
This is by far the scarier possibility, and I hope it isn’t true.
In this scenario, there are powerful forces that don’t care if you know the truth, because it won’t make a difference. You can speak freely all you want, but nothing changes because the outcome is already locked in.
I think of this as the “Agent Smith inevitability” hypothesis.
But the thing about Agent Smith is that he gains all his power through perception. He needs to convince Neo that he is helpless—that he is going to lose.
In my opinion, the goal is to become impervious, to l immune yourself from the psychological warfare that seems to be taking place. To mend lost relationships because let’s face it, to forgive and move on from the many grudges held against you.
We have "cartesian blinders being put on us so that we are trying to make sense out of scraps of information and hints." - @bretweinstein
WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.
In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.
So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?
HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.
WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.
Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.
Bret Weinstein explains, "If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it's difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.
And that's really the thing, right? They're setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here."
