I knew long before Covid dropped, what transhumanism was all about, and how it had decades prior become the global predator class’s plan for the future … because it ensured, in the fastest time possible, that humans, as we have long known them to be, would soon be pushed to the edge of their own extinction.
Those in the know, those with the wealth, those with the power, have long known that technology invariably sets the agenda … even before it began to reiterate itself exponentially … as it is doing today.
Politics is ancient history now. It was entirely consumed by technology, around the time of Marshall McLuhan and Jacques Ellul in the late 1960's.
Just look around you today, at the youth … they can’t get enough of technology. They’re addicted at this point, and so they can’t extricate themselves from it — but they don’t really want to.
Also, they know that should they want to accumulate any wealth for themselves, it will have to be done through the channel of technology.
You can perhaps reject it, but that’s largely because you’re older, and you have other experiences prior to the Internet.
They don’t.
I was there at the beginning of the Internet, and my thinking around technology has reversed 180° since then … as I came to see us entirely cocooned in a totalitarian form of incremental soul dissolution.
Tech is not an ADDICTION for the youth so much as it is a COPING MECHANISM for all of the awful stuff going on everywhere. Take away their smart devices and replace with art supplies and you will get the same perception of addiction to something perceived as "good". If you dont want to become an AI perhaps you should stop feeding it.
