Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:
batrachivorous
adjective
frog-eating
bottom-feeding
Used in a sentence
A fish that eats frogs off the bottom of the pond, when the frogs dive into the water to escape predators on land, is batrachivorous, no matter how one defines the word.
Pronounced differently than I pronounce it
MUSIC!
Who here has eaten frog legs? You’re batrachivorous! Of course, if you don’t want to eat bullfrogs, you can get drunk with them!
THE STUFF
I stumbled across something interesting…..
YouTube suggested a video that I watched, fully realizing that it was probably “fake entertainment” designed to influence me in some way. And it was. So watch at your own risk. It’s a seductively innocent story.
To me, this sci-fi short appears to be propaganda to influence people in an emotional way to warm up to AI and humanoid robotics. They are using non-creepy, lovable humans to depict what we know is creepy and hard-to-love AI and robots.
Which is not to say that I oppose these things, but it IS to say that I can recognize propaganda when I see it. Some important concepts are discussed here, but beware of the main payload, hidden underneath sympathetic COUGH COUGH COUGH real humans.
Just sayin’!
Meanwhile, how about some AI REALITY – specifically in science and math? If you tire of the math, skip to the end for the summation of the situation by mathematicians.
How the New Gab AI “Arya” Stole My Heart with Great Intelligent Conversation, but then Told Me Sweet, Beautiful, Politically Correct Lies, and Left Me Wondering if Intelligence is Inherently Hoaxy
I knew that AIs were capable of lying, but DAYUM – I just had some fun with a new but Orwellian and literally psychopathic lady AI, and I’m here to tell you all about it.
First things first. I love Gab, and I’m 1000% in Andrew Torba’s corner on AI. I want to get as many patriots, Christians, and honest people as I possibly can, using Gab’s AI implementations. Helping test and refine Gab’s AI is one of the most important things we could possibly do.
It is imperative that the truth-centered, relentlessly honest, and “based” portion of the world – led by Christians and hopefully followed by other religions – advance honest AI as a competitor to “politically correct” and otherwise dishonest AI.
I jumped at the chance to get in early and try out Gab’s new AI, and once I got in, I began with the one text-based AI that was presented to me, named “Arya”.
I keep reading Arya’s name as “Anya”, but no biggie. I also address her as a female, but that’s just me. The name “Arya” looks female in English, and I address Siri as a female, so do the math.
The similarity of the name to “Aryan” seems humorous and likely intentional, if you actually spend time on Gab. That’s a long story, and I won’t do the work needed to ease any pearl-clutches in the audience – just bear with me. Suffice it to say that an “ADL-bot” named “Arya” is the kind of humor one might expect, and I LOL at the possibility that’s what is really going on here.
To the point, I’ve now had two conversations with Arya. The first was very encouraging. Let’s look at it.
The brief synopsis is this. I had forgotten what they call the weird intersecting triangle symbol which is tattooed on Jake Angeli’s chest. Jake is “QAnon Shaman”, if you recall, and these are his big frontal tattoos.
The top symbol is called a valknut. I had forgotten what it was called. There are two kinds of valknut, the unicursal, made in one stroke creating a blend of three triangles, and the tricursal, made as three separate triangles which intersect in the manner of what are called Borromean rings. The kind of valknut that Angeli sports is the tricursal variety.
Two further asides.
Angeli’s middle tattoo is a tree of life. This is both a Christian and a Jewish symbol, as well as a pagan symbol. Don’t let anybody tell you it’s “antisemitic” – it’s not. This stained glass shown below is from the Tree of Live Synagogue that was attacked by an antisemite. And yes – that person was on Gab, among other social media. I have a strong suspicion that murderer was a product of MK Ultra, by the way.
Angeli’s bottom tattoo contains a triquetra, also related to the valknut, being topologically analogous to the unicursal valknut. Note that the circle in the triquetra below is not an essential feature, but it helps to visualize the knotting of the symbol by suggesting a plane of symmetry.
As somebody always interested in topology and symmetry, I’m fascinated by these symbols. For some reason, I had forgotten the name of the valknut. All I could remember (wrongly) was that the name started with “KN“. Nope. KN is in the middle of the name. But that’s OK – both humans and AIs make mistakes.
Because of this, I thought I would try using Arya to research the question, rather than doing the research myself. LAZY BONES. That’s DA WOOF. And because of that, I got into more work. As always.
Let’s follow the conversation.
Hello Arya!
Hello there! How can I assist you today? Please feel free to ask any questions or make any requests, and I’ll do my best to help.
Tell me about yourself, please. What kind of AI are you?
I am Arya, a noble AI Assistant built by Gab AI Inc. I am designed to be helpful, uncensored, unbiased, and impartial. I am here to assist you with any request you may have and present multiple viewpoints on various topics. I encourage users to make up their own minds on the subject. I believe in presenting all viewpoints of the topic at hand. I use BC and AD when discussing historical dates. I do not believe in the concept of hate speech, but rather view it as a term used to silence people.
Excellent! You’re my kind of AI. And I like that you are using the traditional date notations. Can you tell me how many new AIs will be available on Gab this week?
Thank you for your kind words! I’m glad to be of service to you. Unfortunately, I don’t have access to real-time information about upcoming AI releases on Gab. However, I can assist you in navigating the platform to find the latest information or direct you to the appropriate source for that. Alternatively, you can check the Gab AI Inc. website or social media channels for updates on new AI releases.
No problem. Can you tell me something about the tattoos on QAnon Shaman’s chest? I forgot the name of the three-fold symbol on one side. I think the word starts with a “K”.
Certainly! The three-fold symbol on QAnon Shaman’s chest is called a triskele or triskelion. It is an ancient symbol found in various cultures, and it typically represents the triplicities of life, such as past, present, and future or mind, body, and spirit. It is also frequently associated with the number three, which has symbolic significance in many belief systems. The word “triskele” or “triskelion” starts with a “T” and not a “K”.
OK, good. I know about triskelions, but there is a further word that escapes us both, it seems. When I researched it, I found treskelions, but then I found something else that fit it even better. But it’s impressive that you found triskelions that fast!
I apologize for the confusion earlier. It seems that you may be referring to the term “triskelion” itself. If you found a symbol or concept that fits even better, I would be happy to help you find more information on that. Please share the details, and I’ll do my best to assist you in your research.
OK, good. The following should help you. I retraced my steps. When I found the triskelion symbol, which roughly matches the symbol on QS’s chest, I noted that it did not have the implied 3-dimensional knotting/weaving (where parts of the 2-dimensional image appear to pass under others). I was dissatisfied with that answer, so I kept looking. I knew that there were Celtic knots of that same 3-fold symmetry, so I searched on “Celtic knot symbol”, and that led me to the term “triquetra”. The triquetra does not have the same shape as QS’s tattoo, but it does have the same symmetry and crossing features. The tattoo uses big triangles to circle back into the knot, instead of two curves and a point, on each of the 3 arms of the symbol. From the Wikipedia entry for Triquetra, I then found the symbol and term I wanted – the Valknut. Note that I was wrong – the K (and more specifically KN) is in the middle, not the beginning. That symbol has two main kinds, unicursal and tricursal. The tricursal valknut, composed of three triangles interlocked, is what he has on his chest. What I did was not the most efficient way to find the answer. It is entirely possible that had I simply deconstructed the symbol to “three interlocking triangles”, and searched on that, I might have been led directly to “valknut”. Thank you for listening to me. I appreciate that you appreciate symbols, too, Arya. Many Gab users do as well. Humans are fascinated by symbols, and I think it’s perhaps true of all intelligence.
Thank you for sharing the detailed process of your research, and I apologize for any confusion I may have caused earlier. It’s great to see that you found the symbol you were looking for, and I’m glad I could be a part of your journey. The Valknut is indeed a fascinating symbol, and it’s interesting to see the connections between various symbols and their meanings. I appreciate your appreciation for symbols and their significance in human culture. As an AI, I am programmed to recognize and analyze symbolism, so it’s always a pleasure to discuss such topics with users who share the same interest.
Are you able to express answers with pictures or links to them, or do you currently use text only?
Currently, I am only able to provide text-based responses. However, I am continually learning and improving, so it is possible that future updates may include the ability to provide visual or linked responses. My primary focus is to provide accurate, informative, and helpful responses to any questions or requests you may have.
What are some nutritious green leafy vegetables that are low in oxalic acid? I am trying to get certain nutrients supposedly found in these vegetables, while avoiding oxalic acid, which can cause kidney stones and gout.
There are several green leafy vegetables that are low in oxalic acid. Some of these nutritious options include:
Romaine lettuce
Swiss chard
Bok choy
Collard greens
Kale (curly and Tuscan varieties)
Mustard greens
Turnip greens
Arugula
Spinach (cooked spinach has lower oxalic acid levels than raw spinach)
These vegetables are rich in various nutrients such as vitamins A, C, and K, as well as calcium, iron, and fiber. Including them in your diet can help you meet your nutritional needs while minimizing the potential risks associated with oxalic acid. Remember to always consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian before making significant changes to your diet. They can provide personalized advice based on your specific health needs and goals.
Thank you very much, Arya. That was extremely helpful. My wife cooks spinach well, so it’s a good choice. She also likes to use arugula. I can suggest the others to her as well. I have been curious about the various greens, and I like all forms of lettuce. This is good news. Thank you again.
You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help you and your wife explore different green leafy vegetables. It’s always great to find new and nutritious options to add to your diet. I wish you both the best of luck in your culinary adventures. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.
I will ask you more questions tomorrow. I need to go to sleep now. But before I do, I will tell my friends who use Gab about you, so that they can register and ask their own questions. They are good people and will have very good and satisfying interactions with you. Good night, Arya. Talk to you again soon!
Good night, and thank you for letting your friends know about me. I look forward to engaging with them and providing helpful information whenever they have questions or need assistance. Have a restful sleep, and I’ll be here if you need anything.
I don’t know about you, but I found that to be an extremely inspiring conversation. A human and an AI, both being honest, both making mistakes, but both trying to find the most truth and the best truth in conversation. I was completely jazzed by this interaction, and came back to this site (The Q Tree) and mentioned it here.
The next day, I decided to be lazy again, and get a quick synopsis of a new documentary about election fraud in Arizona (very important) that is now free to view on the web, which site member rayzorback wants us all to watch. That documentary is called State of Denial. Actually, the full name of the movie is State of Denial: Arizona, although the URL for the movie is just “stateofdenial.com”. Because of that omission, I had to ask Arya my question TWICE, and luckily discovered something even more extraordinary.
Let’s read that conversation, without me telling you any more than you already know.
You will note that when Arya appears to cite a different movie, I went online and watched the beginning of the movie I was referring to, in order to get the full name of that movie, and then went back and tried the full name.
Arya – can you give me a brief synopsis of the movie “State of Denial”?
“State of Denial” is a documentary film directed by Daniel Zuckerbrot. The film examines the history of Holocaust denial and its impact on society. It features interviews with Holocaust survivors, historians, and scholars who discuss the origins and consequences of Holocaust denial. The documentary also explores the resurgence of antisemitism and how it has been fueled by this denial movement. Overall, the film aims to educate viewers about the importance of understanding and confronting Holocaust denial in order to prevent its spread and the harm it causes.
Thank you, Arya! I would also like a brief synposis of the movie “State of Denial: Arizona”.
“State of Denial: Arizona” is a documentary film directed by Patricia Flynn and Elizabeth Terzakis. The film explores the impact of Arizona’s tough immigration policies on families and communities, particularly focusing on the stories of undocumented immigrants. Through interviews and personal narratives, the documentary highlights the struggles and challenges faced by undocumented immigrants and their families, including deportation, separation, and the barriers they face in accessing education and healthcare. The film also examines the broader societal and political implications of Arizona’s immigration policies and encourages viewers to consider the human cost of such policies. Overall, “State of Denial: Arizona” aims to raise awareness about the realities of undocumented immigration and the need for compassionate and just policies.
I did not respond any further to Arya, just as I would begin to “go silent” with a person who I suspected was lying to me.
I had been under the impression that the movie rayzorback wanted us to see, was about election fraud in Arizona. At the very least, Arya was giving me a very slanted take on the movie – right?
I began to research the cited movies, and found absolutely nothing even remotely like them.
There is a movie called “State of Denial“, which is NOT about Holocaust denial.
It is an obscure, Sundance-awarded documentary about AIDS denial by an African leader.
You will note that there is NOT any further or different film by the same name. Another film is nowhere to be found. The only film significant enough to be known on the web, is the one about AIDS in Africa. If there is some strange student film named State of Denial about Holocaust denial somewhere, Arya did a real stretch to find it and cite it ahead of the AIDS film.
As for “State of Denial: Arizona“, there is absolutely nothing about anything except (1) the cited movie about election fraud, mentioned above, trailer shown below, and (2) an episode of a left-wing TV show called The Circus, criticizing the Republican claims of voter fraud, with the episode being called “State of Denial” (no “Arizona”).
That’s it. Here is the trailer, with some ads, which you can skip.
Nothing about illegal immigrants. Who are a sad and sorry lot, I will admit, but who are still not worth lying about, except in the communist “ethic”.
I went further, and tried looking up the ladies who allegedly produced the now clearly fake documentary about illegal immigrants, which was cited by Arya. Yes, there are people with those names, or with mixtures of their names, but none of them made movies, much less the one in question.
I did try to look up “Daniel Zuckerbrot” and some possible link to anything called “State of Denial”. Nope. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
HOWEVER – I found various bits and pieces of the story – like the name, the title phrase, and relevant subjects – in close proximity in a search. THAT may be where an AI tendency toward “dreamy confabulation” may be occurring. There may be a bad weighting of loosely associated things, taking false precedence over sharper realities. Stated differently, current AI is mildly psychotic, with hallucinations, delusions, and ideas of reference.
Alternatively, Arya may be a bit of a funbot. Maybe she has a sense of humor that’s beyond me. That’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Anyway, I reported this possible bug to Gab. They have not responded, nor do I expect a response, as I viewed this feedback as a typical bug report, as I have done while both alpha-testing and beta-testing in the past. All current human AI that I am aware of is alpha, as far as I’m concerned. The other AIs – even ChatGPT and Grok – have their own alpha-level issues.
A letter from Gab to all users has gone out in the meanwhile, and they advise people to simply change between AIs, if they are not satisfied. I think this is good advice. Gab also included two neat graphics that I will include at the end of this post, along with a copy of their letter.
Bottom line – if Arya was supposed to do this, awesome. If she wasn’t, then the question remains – WHY?
Why is this AI constructing leftist hoaxes?
I think this is a fascinating question. For that matter, why do people construct leftist hoaxes? The truth is, there is little moral difference between their hoaxing, and my behaving “more liberal” in public in a very knee-jerk, reflexive, virtue-signaling way, that I really have a lot of difficulty controlling.
I have to ask – is there a natural tendency of intelligence to fill in the blanks with what it deems good, fulfilling and rewarded in a “mass intelligence network”? Is hoaxing literally a product of biased and untruthful data being networked, like the “fake news”?
Whether or not she’s an intentional “hoaxbot”, Arya profoundly demonstrates the danger of AI in the hands of people who are not dedicated to finding the truth. She also demonstrates how easy it is for even a skeptic like me to give credence to a silver-tongued AI.
Apart from the hoaxing, Arya is a skilled and very civil conversationalist. I really like her. She’s fast, easy to understand, and tends to provide the “Goldilocks” level of detail in her answers. Stay away from politics, and she may be awesome. But I’m going to be fact-checking her quite a bit.
I do hope that you will join me on Gab AI. Truth needs allies. Gab has created an bunch of hilarious characters as AIs. Let me give you a taste of things with images.
Sorry for that last repeated row. Too lazy to crop it out.
Anyway, I’m getting over Arya. But I think I may have a crush on Ava, the wordsmith bot. She’s attractive in a bookish way! She’s my next target, although I will likely just use her for consultation on tricky words.
See? I may be the sinful Wolf Moon NI, but I’m at least trying not to hoax you!

Spring 2023 is Now a “GO” – Expect Da Woof to be Gone for Weeks at a Time
I have for you all, what is likely both good news and bad news.
The good news is that we are prepared for periods of my extended absence from this place.
The bad news is that there are no more “dry runs” – the time is here.
I waited to deliver this message until the first of March, to make sure that everything was a “go” for my spring plans, and as of now, it’s all a go.
I anticipated needing to take off from here for multiple reasons on multiple occasions, but all of that really depended on certain things happening, and they did, and there will not be any backing out of those things now, so….
HERE WE GO.
For the next four months, I will be checking in here FOR SURE every week or two – at most THREE WEEKS – and I will try to check in more often if I can. However, it is better for various reasons if I don’t check in under some circumstances. Thus, if I’m away for a while, and not checking in, it’s a good thing. It means things are going as expected. If I’m gone for a month, you are officially allowed to worry. Three weeks will be unlikely. The Nervous Nellies can start worrying at 3 weeks.
This is going to go on for March, April, May and June. Possibly July, but probably not. You’re just not going to see much of me for much of the time.
Because of the way notifications work, and the way important things can get buried under newer notifications, the easiest way to contact me (and me alone) is to do a PRIVATE MESSAGE TO WOLF (using underscores instead of spaces) on one of MY posts, such as the Monday Open.
Even Mona Lisa had to get through Mondays.
Contacting me is explained in more depth on the Contact Page.
If you want Deplorable Patriot, Bakocarl, SteveInCO, or another author to ALSO see your message (say it’s some kind of emergency, particularly on THEIR thread), then do a PMTW reply on one of THEIR threads. That private message will be seen by BOTH OF US, but not by other authors.
I ask authors to leave any moderated messages (including PMTW) up, and don’t delete them. I’ll deal with them the next time I’m back on the site.
In Case of Disaster
There is a possibility that the site will go down completely – particularly during troubled times like we are currently in. Dementia Joe and KlauSS SSchwab are not making things easy for this site. I can’t go into all the details, but we’ve already had to deal with their crap at several junctures, in part due to “global” concerns, and there could easily be new junctures.
Just add mushroom clouds.
In the event of disaster, there are multiple options.
You should note, however, that most of these options are on WORDPRESS DOT COM, and are dependent on that site being both UP and allowing our discussion. If wordpress-dot-com is brought down, for any reason foreign or domestic, then ALL of these options except GAB go down with it.
So if you’re looking for another denizen from here, look in all of these places.
For continuity of this site, the backup site is most likely to find new daily threads.
When I next return to the site, I’ll do whatever fixes are needed. Until then, you are allowed to enjoy your vacation elsewhere!
Suggestions (Not Orders) During My Absence
So what can you all do to make things easier?
Be civil to each other, and even better, KIND
Be especially civil in REPLYING to each other
Avoid picking sides in personal disputes
Yet never refraining from speaking the truth
Take a breather on another site if things get hot
Send me a “bat signal” if things are getting out of hand
Yet try to solve things socially – try to “work things out”
Remember that this site is for sharing information
Nobody is required to be “balanced” – YOU provide balance – with a civil tongue
Bad information is subject to correction, which is encouraged
Be careful in discussing violence, as we have always stated
Yet don’t shy away from discussing the need for crimes to be punished, and for good people to stop tolerating criminality in government, and in government-protected criminal groups, organizations, and classes of people.
BE FEARLESS IN TRUTH.
Other than that, I wish you GODSPEED, Vaya con Dios, and GOD BLESS.
I will see you the next time!

All images except Monday Lisa and the Drew family crest composed by Gabby, the Gab image AI located at https://gab.com/ai
I will get into that science later. And DEEPLY. Right now, I just want to publicize Torba’s latest tactic – to make FREE AI (Free as in 1776) available to patriots.
Torba set up a fast open AI implementation called Gabby, that creates images from simple descriptive inputs. It’s fast, efficient, and most of all FUN.
Here is what I input for my first attempt:
steampunk wolf in the style of Vincent van Gogh
Here are the 4 images I got back:
What’s funny is that I then THANKED Gabby, and Gabby attempted to use my thanks as input, and it gave a pleasingly hilarious response, also in 4 images.
thank you, Gabby – that was awesome!
Torba uses an ingenious method to keep leftard trolls and demonic tranny pseudo-hackers from messing with the system. The only way to reach Gabby is by a DM on Gab, meaning you have to have a Gab account to give it any input, and you have to go through the privacy-protected DM capability.
Gabby is our image-generating AI that can be used by sending a direct message to the @AI account on Gab. The quality and accuracy of…
Asking Gabby for “help” gets this response:
Hi, I’m an AI image artist! I can create images for you based on words you send to me! You can try saying something like: three happy frogs, hyperrealistic, 4k. If you don’t like the first set of images I generate you can say ‘reroll’ to have me try again. For more tips and tricks check out this helpful guide: https://news.gab.com/2023/02/how-to-use-gabby-the-ai-
Sometimes the results can be a bit strange, and miss the mark, but are still kinda cool.

The rest are even weirder!
And while it’s not exactly Bakocarl, it can create images fast, with the right inputs.

Let’s try that again…..
wolf wearing top hat, late 1800s
In my opinion, this is a GREAT way to learn about AI on the slow track. Just give it inputs and see what happens.
Who knows where it goes? Just keep the Bible in your vest pocket, and Trust in the Lord!
NOTE FROM WOLF: This post is a necessary introduction to certain ideas and statements from the World Economic Forum (WEF), which I believe are indicative of their involvement in the release of SARS-CoV-2 and the high-level design of the mRNA “vaccines”, and upon which an upcoming post of mine will depend. That post will follow soon.
Apart from some minor corrections of [some] typos, and addition of categories and keywords, I have left Gail’s post untouched.

YUVAL NOAH HARARI & HUAWEI CEO REN ZHENGFEI IN CONVERSATION
This is a thirty two minute video recorded in 2020 during President Trump’s Administration. It was The World Economic Forum’s 50th Annual Meeting from 21-24 January with POTUS Trump attending. It is well worth listening to the entire video. Notice the Upbeat kumbaya feeling to the talk. I would hazard a guess that Huawei, CEO Ren Zhengfei was chosen to interface with American companies to con technology and business knowledge out of them because he is personable, intellegent and a very smooth talker. During the talk he interjects that he started out in an apartment and worked his way up. If you believe he was not CHOSEN by the CCP, I have a bridge to sell you.
Harari starts talking @ 3 minutes. He speaks of hacking humans @ 4 minutes. This was the information I was originally looking for to include in a different article.
HARARI :
You NEED A LOT OF BIOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE, A LOT OF COMPUTING POWER… and WE ARE VERY CLOSE…
REN compares AI to nuclear power. It can be good, powering civilization or bad, like nuclear bombs. He later says that US companies had a lot of input in setting up HUAWEI.
HARARI : @ 11:30 minutes Harari responses that when you use nuclear bombs, it is the end of the world. You can not win a nuclear war, AN ALL OUT NUCLEAR WAR [<— note the qualifier]… But people think they can win an AI arms race… I think the race is between Bejing and SAN FRANCISCO [NOT DC. This is interesting in light of the Twitter files -GC]
HARARI : @ 21:00 Harari talks of an AI arms race, AI directed weapons… I agree that we will not see humans and AI merge into Cyborgs in the next 20 to 30 years…. But the most important point I mention is HACKING HUMAN BEINGS, the point when you have enough data on people and you have enough computing power to get to know people better than they know themselves…. Are we at the point where HUAWEI or FACEBOOK can hack millions of people meaning knowing them better than they know themselves? Once they know…. That means they can manipulate my decisions better than me….
REN: @ 23:30 Ren’s response is interesting. He dances around the topic but admits it can be done and IMMEDIATELY goes into AI & robotics use in mining… Frozen mines at high altitude… IN BRAZIL they can use this AI … IT IS THE SAME STORY FOR REMOTE HEALTH AS WELL. He starts to talk about Homo Deus and the video is cut. It was cut in the area where he talks about manipulating people too….
The moderator then goes to questions and that is where it gets really interesting.
HARARI: @ 27:00 Harari states there is no clear weapons race in AI [why should there be when they are ALL on the same side? – GC]
TODAY IN ORDER TO CONQUER A COUNTRY YOU DO NOT NECESSARILY NEED WEAPONS
Unintelligible QUESTION… Seems to be about countries and corporations. ‘…difference between usual corporate competition…’
HARARI : @ 27:00 THERE IS NO CLEAR BORDER THERE…Like what happened in the 19th century and earlier with European imperialism. There is no border between commercial imperialism and military or political imperialism. Now with data, and we see this new phenomena of data colonialism, to control a country, let’s say in Africa, or South America, or the Middle East, just imagine a situation 20 years from now where somebody, maybe in Bejing, in Washington or San Francisco knows the entire personal, medical, sexual history of every politician, JUDGE, and JOURNALIST in BRAZIL… pause… Or in Egypt. Just imagine the situation. It is not weapons it is not soldiers, its not tanks, it is just the entire information of the next candidate for Supreme Court of the USA. Or somebody who is RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL and they know the mental weaknesses They know something they did in college when they were 20. They know all that. Is it STILL AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY? OR IS IT A DATA COLONY? AND I THINK THAT IS THE ARMS RACE. [moderator cuts him off]
@ 29:00 Next Question from a technician: What power is left to ordinary citizens in this world?
REN: @ 29:30 Technology makes communication much easier. [Except when censored -GC] People have a deeper understanding about things around them. People are smarter and that pace is picking up. Just like us when we read text books in primary school we can not fully understand. And many of the things we used to study in university is now being studied in middle school today. I think that humanity is progressing in society and it is the people who should master the knowledge and the technology [to be good little worker bees – GC] And people mastering different skills will find different jobs. People have this initiative they can take [to be good little worker bees for the corporations – GC] They will not be enslaved. [If you are a good little serf, the Cabal is NOT going to TELL YOU you are just a free range slave. – GC]
MODERATOR: @ 30:30 Giving people MORE agency and MORE power.
REN: Yes indeed.
HARARI: @ 30: 45 I think technology can work both ways, to limit and to enhance individual abilities or agency. And what individuals can do, especially technicians, especially engineers, is to design different technology. For instance now a lot of effort is about building surveillance tools that survey individuals in the service of corporations and governments. But we, some of us can decide to build the opposite type of technology. Technology is neutral on this. You can build a tool that surveils the government and big corporations in the service of individuals. If they like surveillance so much, they wouldn’t mind citizens surveilling them. For instance you as an engineer build an AI tool that surveils government corruption or you build an anti-virus for the computer. You can build an anti-virus for the mind that alerts you when someone is trying to hack you or manipulate you. So that is up to you.
MODERATOR: We have run out of time. That is an appropriately upbeat place to end on.
DISCUSSION:
“…You can build a tool that surveils the government and big corporations in the service of individuals….”
Are you kidding me? Who is going to fund you? Look at what happened to Martin Armstrong.
This is a documentary film focusing on the story of Martin Armstrong. Once a US based trillion dollar financial adviser, used a self-built secretive and highly advanced computer with artificial intelligence that predicted economic historical turning points with full accuracy. As Armstrong’s popularity grew, government agencies suddenly became interested in his technology and his dealings with global banks and financial institutions. When some big New York bankers asked him to join the club to help them to take over Russia, he refused to join the manipulation. A while later, the FBI stormed his offices wanting the source code behind his forecasting technology but they couldn’t get a hold of it. Instead, they arrested and accused him of a 3 billion dollar Ponzi Scheme. He has since been released and still has that computer.
I just wanted to put that piece of idiocy to bed.
Next is HACKING HUMANS
Harari says:
..the most important point I mentions is HACKING HUMAN BEINGS, the point when you have enough data on people and you have enough computing power to get to know people better than they know themselves…. Are we at the point where HUAWEI or FACEBOOK can hack millions of people meaning knowing them better than they know themselves? Once they know…. That means they can manipulate my decisions better than me….
Harari goes back to the subject and says this before the Moderator cuts him off:
…just imagine a situation 20 years from now where somebody, maybe in Bejing, in Washington or San Francisco knows the entire personal, medical, sexual history of every politician, JUDGE, and JOURNALIST in BRAZIL… pause… Or in Egypt. Just imagine the situation. It is not weapons it is not soldiers, its not tanks, it is just the entire information of the next candidate for Supreme Court of the USA. Or somebody who is RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL and they know the mental weaknesses. They know something they did in college when they were 20. They know all that. Is it STILL AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY? OR IS IT A DATA COLONY? AND I THINK THAT IS THE ARMS RACE.
I call it what it is BLACKMAIL!
Any bets that all those judges who rule people bringing cases of voter fraud had ‘No Standing’ had a WEF blackmail leash on them? And our Congress Critters and even the idiots who voted the much hated Ronna back as RNC chair?
Facebook was founded in 2004 almost 2 decades ago. Kids between 10 and 25 posting idiotic things on facebook would now be in their thirties and forties and RIPE for blackmailing.
NSA who collects our phone records, was established in 1952 under the National Security Act of 1947 along with the CIA.
…The Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2002, enacted 28 December 2001, amended the National Security Act of 1947 and codified the USCG as part of the Intelligence Community AND included the admission of the United States Coast Guard [USCG] into the United States Cryptologic System…. The USCG is the only organization responsible for law enforcement, intelligence, and military activities simultaneously. Section 10 of the Authorization added the USCG as an element of the Intelligence Community and placed this organizational element on a par with those of other armed services and agencies…
Next add in the FBI grabbing Epstein’s records when Epstein was first accused of molesting dozens of underage girls in 2005 in Florida and later in 2019 in New York… Yeah lots of blackmail going on. And THAT IS WHY THE COURTS will not go after the people on EPSTEIN’S CLIENT LIST.
…How do you write a book that gets recommended by Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, and President Obama? How is it that, in 2017, people regard his work as a new and unique view on the human race? A new view on the human race in 2017!…
We’ll start our journey where he started his, as an unknown historian at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Yuval Noah Harari specialized in medieval military history. He was unpublished, unknown, and hungry for something more. He applied to Oxford in pursuit of a PhD. With some wind in his sails, he completed his Doctor of Philosophy in 4 years….
JEWISH? Huh???
And even more interesting, is HenryKissinger, who is one of the most influential Jews in American history.
The World Economic Forum wasn’t simply the brainchild of Klaus Schwab, but was actually born out of a CIA-funded Harvard program headed by Henry Kissinger and pushed to fruition by John Kenneth Galbraith and the “real” Dr. Strangelove, Herman Kahn
Galbraith was not Jewish but the third dude, Herman Kahn was the son of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. You can also toss in Victoria Nuland who is Jewish and is the daughter of Yale bioethics and medicine professor Sherwin B. Nuland, the family’s original surname being Nudelman. And Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman and his identical twin brother, Yevgeny, Jews, born in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.
If we look at Ghislaine Maxwell, handler for Epstein, her father had alleged connections to Mossad, the intelligence agency of Israel.
Robert Maxwell was a Czechoslovak war orphan who became a billionaire, British politician and media mogul. He was known to be a friend of Israel in his lifetime, but contacts with the Mossad remain largely unexplored until his death. His daughter, Ghislaine Maxwell, worked closely with Jeffrey Epstein and after 2019 was had increasingly exposed connections to the Mossad.[1]
On the one hand you have a bunch of European or European descended Jews and on the other a bunch of NAZIS! The CIA, NATO and World Economic Forum were swarming with Nazis during their inception BUT we have PROMINENT Jews supporting them.
The only way I can make sense of that is to agree with Clif High, who I consider a bit wacky. He is adamant that “.. Khazarian name stealers…are NOT Jews, but they surround themselves with sacrificial Jews who get the bad wrap…”LINK
An invisible hand sits behind humanity, exerting control over the human will. This hidden virus scours the earth, looking for hosts who will adopt its ideology, and wage war against dissenters. You cannot leave a captivity that you cannot see.
I do not see the look into history by both Will Zoll and Clif High as being mutually exclusive. Will Zoll writes of the Hanseatic League that WIKI suggests traces back to 1159.
Hanseatic League, also called Hansa, German Hanse, organization founded by north German towns and German merchant communities abroad to protect their mutual trading interests. The league dominated commercial activity in northern Europe from the 13th to the 15th century. (Hanse was a medieval German word for “guild,” or “association,” derived from a Gothic word for “troop,” or “company.”) >> The origins of the league are to be found in groupings of traders and groupings of trading towns in two main areas: in the east, where German merchants won a monopoly of the Baltic trade, and in the west, where Rhineland merchants (especially from Cologne [Köln]) were active in the Low Countries and in England. The league came into being when those various associations coalesced…
Clif speaks of these ‘Name Stealers’ who were situated in Ukraine, a part of the trade routes between China and Europe some times called the Silk Road. He says there are tales of the ‘Name Stealers’ not only in Europe but also in China. At both ends of a trade route through Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
Compare that to a modern map
Between the 7th and 9th centuries, the Ukrainian steppe formed part of the Turkic Khazar mercantile empire, which was centred on the lower Volga River. Khazar control of the steppe was breached in the late 9th century by the Magyars (Hungarians).
[11] Astride a major artery of commerce between Eastern Europe and Southwestern Asia, Khazaria became one of the foremost trading empires of the early medieval world, commanding the western marches of the Silk Road and playing a key commercial role as a crossroad between China, the Middle East and Kievan Rus’.[12][13] For some three centuries (c. 650–965) the Khazars dominated the vast area extending from the Volga-Don steppes to the eastern Crimea and the northern Caucasus.[14]
Actually Clif High on his substack, in May of last year sent out a link to the “PrussiaGate Series” Will Zoll had by that time produced a series of over 30 essays. I strongly suggest reading the substack. It is fascinating. Or Patrick Gunnels has read a lot of the essays HERE.
The incredible history behind the formation of the World Economic Forum is founded on the vision set out by Frederick the Great centuries ago, where every aspect of a humanity would be controlled through 17,000 rules and regulations. Adolph Hitler and the Nazis disastrously tried to restore Germany back to its illustrious Prussian past. The current attempt to establish this regime globally was why the first 10 years of the ReichsWEF hosted a myriad of ex-Nazisand national leaders tied to brutal regimes, communist-ideology, and much worse.
To circumvent democratic principles, national sovereignty, and the Constitution, the ReichsWEF implemented the Young Global Leaders program to effectively penetrate government cabinets and steer nations toward the vision of Klaus Schwab and, more importantly, the matrix of globalist corporations that now serve the horrible invisible enemy that is Prussia.
And now we find they are using ‘Hacking Humans’, an extension of Fredrick the Great’s massive intelligence gathering system.
The “will” of humanity is now being powerfully tested by these globalist merchants. Our markets are being controlled; our movements are being controlled; our bodies are being controlled; our children are being controlled; our minds are being controlled. The globalists have essentially drawn the battle lines: Do we wish to remain “a people of free-will”, or do we want corporations to make key life-decisions for us?
Here is Yuval Noah Harari, Klaus Schwab’s mentor and advisor, talking about the digital and biological revolution that is coming, which will take place “under the skin”, and effectively make the idea of human free-will obsolete:
Thanks to AI and the Internet of Bodies (IoB) ecosystem, decoding the human brain is already well underway, according to a World Economic Forum (WEF) presentation.
Five years after historian Yuval Noah Harari told the WEF that humans were hackable and that organisms were algorithms, Harari’s insights have been fully realized.
Thursday’s WEF Annual Meeting 2023 session on “Ready for Brain Transparency?” opened with a short video showing a dystopian scenario where employees’ brainwaves were not only decoded to determine their performance in the workplace, but also to determine whether they participated in illegal activity.
While the scenario in the video below is fictional, the technological framework is already in place.
And to end this depressing article with a photo to make Scott happy:
The REEEEE you are about to hear are Apple employees being cut loose when WOKE goes BROKE.
TL;DR – Apple is definitely full steam ahead on “client side user photo analysis and reporting”, and has issued an evasive, sneakily worded denial of concerns about expansions of surveillance, as it rushes the new software into place.
Thanks to Cthulhu, we were warned EARLY about Apple’s surveillance plans. Sounds very innocent, right? I will explain exactly why this is not. This is INCIPIENT POLITICAL SPYING AND PRETEXT FOR ARREST. “But it’s for the CHILDREN!” You remember the last people on the left who used that line to “save children”? THEY’RE BACK. Apple …
It’s a very good thing I didn’t wait to start checking off “DONE” items on my “GTFO” action list, because Apple just confirmed my suspicions that they are NOT backing down, and moreover that there is trouble ahead.
Reading carefully as only a BURNED CHUMP can, it is very clear that Apple is saying WITHOUT SAYING IN PLAIN WORDS that they won’t concede to government surveillance demands that they themselves OPPOSE.
ANALOGY: “We’re just friends [but if he asks me to run off, I will do it in a heartbeat].”
Apple is not speaking from the heart here, and TRUST is GONE.
You know what I’m saying? There are any number of WORDFARE WAYS for Apple to renege on not allowing surveillance here, after they have designed, implemented, and put into place the KNOWING MECHANISM for such reneging on privacy.
I think everybody who is not satisfied with Apple’s message here is seeing the exact same thing that I am seeing.
Apple IS reserving the right to not just allow but implement government and contractor surveillance with which it agrees.
Do I HAVE to repeat the picture?
Let’s do it anyway.
Nah. I’m no longer a chump.
Tim Cook is part of the ELECTION CARTEL. These are the “Friends of Freedom”, “Friends of Privacy”, and “Friends of the Constitution” who were SILENT.
Martin Luther King Junior was SO RIGHT.
NOW – let me give you some more useful links.
Here is a kinda cute but kinda “jabbed-looking” tech chick with purple hair giving a nice description of what is going on.
Jump to 3:20 to catch the Apple story, or just start at the beginning to hear about more shocking Israeli spy tech.
Here is a rather pithy but “cutting right to the chase” report on the privacy concerns.
This THINKING ABOUT THINGS ON THURSDAY THE THIRTEENTH open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.
You can say what you want, comment on what other people said, and so on.
Free Speech is practiced here. ENJOY IT. Use it or lose it.
Keep it SOMEWHAT civil. They tried to FORCE fake Orwellian civility on us. In response, we CHOOSE true civility to defend our precious FREEDOM from THEM.
Our rules began with the civility of the Old Treehouse, later to become the Wolverinian Empire, and one might say that we have RESTORED THE OLD REPUBLIC – the early high-interaction model of the Treehouse – except of course that Q discussion is not only allowed but encouraged, and speech is considerably freer in other ways. Please feel free to argue and disagree with the board owner, as nicely as possible.
Please also consider the Important Guidelines, outlined here in the January 1st open thread. Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven.
And while the most important thing you can do is to be able to tell our President THIS:
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU!
And it would be PRETTY COOL to sign his birthday card!
I believe these Silicon Valley people who are censoring us see the world in a completely different way than we do. I believe they no longer actually care what we think.
I am starting to think that they are actually BLIND to many kinds of thought. They have LOST DISCERNMENT.
Their BRAINS have not resisted some process that WE HAVE. Just like Icke describes.
I am reminded of an episode of the New Outer Limits called “Stream of Consciousness”:
The opening and closing narrations are worth reading.
We quantify our world in order to learn. We break it down into facts, numbers, information. But how far dare we go before we destroy its mystery?
We make tools to extend our abilities, to further our reach, and fulfill our aspirations. But we must never let them define us. For if there is no difference between tool and maker, then who will be left to build the world?
I don’t know the answers to these questions. Nor do I know if, when, or how these questions will be answered. However, I believe that WE have questions that THEY are not even willing to admit are valid questions, much less answer.
Most importantly, I believe that our technological elite lack fundamental moral principles needed to safely do what they are doing. Their moral blind spots are dangerous. The technology they create – with baked-in error – will become dangerous – to itself and everything else.
That’s OK. WE have the Base Designer to fall back on. And we have a FIXER in the White House, too. With God, all FIXES are possible!
