No, you misunderstand. Both you and @Axeslinger made a comment or comments in relation to the visibility of TBR compared to Twitter or other sites.

What I am trying to tell you is that immersion into huge social media platforms can cause a process that ANY person's brain can't keep up with or compute.

There is a concerted effort on the part of the MSM, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, etc. to only allow content that fits their rules. But no one knows what those rules really are.

It is a part of this thread to suggest those media platforms are using or will figure out how to sway people's minds to "their" way of thinking.

I should keep files like @Bigun does. Too many things going down a bottomless rabbit hole never to be seen again. Something I noticed ten or twelve years ago researching info on a subject that is now taboo. Posting over at TOS.

I am replying on this thread to comments made on other threads I deem relevant.

Mind my own business? Don't post comments anywhere if you think a reply is some sort of attack.

I don’t think it’s an attack, but when people get caught up in conspiracy stuff, they tend to not take no for an answer when others say they’re not interested.   That was about the fourth time you’ve had one of your bad periods and pinged me for a rebuke of some kind.  I have no idea why, but I didn’t respond before.  But I wasn’t in the mood for the conspiracy shilling.  That hasn’t changed. 

You say mass media causes psychosis.  Who knows, probably.  Sealing yourself up in a bubble can have the same effect.  Going down internet rabbit holes and immersing yourself in conspiracies absolutely causes psychosis.

 You need proof?  Go on Twitter (yeah I know) and try to have a reasonable conversation with anyone in the Qanon tags.  Hillary Clinton harvests adrenochrome from infants’ glands and snorts it to get high, then bathes in their blood and eats their bodies for dinner.  It’s all recycled Protocols of the Elders of Zion garbage—anti-semitism of the worst kind is rife in Qanon land.  They’ll tell you about the synagogue of Satan.  Also that JFK Jr. has been alive all along and is hiding out to help Trump save the world.  Yesterday a video turned up in my feed—a woman ranting that Obama ordered 65,000 hot dogs delivered to the White House, only they weren’t hot dogs because everyone knows that’s pedophile code for children.

Just a couple of days ago, Q let his fans know that soon he’ll reveal information about a secret race of reptilian humanoid hybrids who exist on earth.  They’ll lap it up and they won’t question it.  I might consider them pathetic, but it’s very hard to feel any sympathy for (supposed) thinking adults who even entertain such insanity, much less fall headlong into it.

It’s a crazy, insane cult, but I wouldn’t care if it weren’t so prevalent.  Go look at the line outside Trump’s last rally.  It was filled with people wearing Q shirts.  When Trump used his hands, they said he was tracing a Q in the air as coded messages.  Yesterday the Twitter account for the Unplanned movie (pro-life) tweeted out Q crap. This lunatic shit is in danger of taking over the right.  It’s concerning.  You aren’t aware because you believe in staying in a safe little bubble. 

The shyster, PrayingMedic, who’s likely behind it, is making out selling “healing classes”.  And books instructing you on astral projection (pure occultism) and how you can fly to the heavenly court and pick out your angel lawyer to argue your case before God.  If you think I’m making it up, just google.  I saw a video of the guy being interviewed by that nut Bill Mitchell.   His eyes were darting all over the place every time he was asked a question—a classic sign of someone lying his ass off.  He finished up with a threat to doxx people who challenge Q. 

Meanwhile his cult members continue to isolate themselves and drive away their families so that the only ones left to them are fellow cult members in cyberspace.  They spend their time chasing down make work clues to nothing, hoping for mass executions in the streets, and making bad-quality memes, like the kind you see at TOS, because Q told them memes are warfare.   None of the BS deadlines ever pan out, but that doesn’t matter.  They’re too invested.  And that’s how cults work.

Personally?  I think we’re being softened up.  I think it really got started with the slavish devotion the left had for Obama, and continued with the same on the right for Trump.  Now you see large numbers buying into stuff so deranged it wouldn’t make a good movie.  You know how the Bible says even the elect will be deceived?  If Obama was godlike, and Trump a global savior from nightmare evildoers, what do you think will happen when the AntiChrist shows up?  People will snap to and fall right in line.

So when I see this crazy shit taking over, I have zero patience with it.  You really should be careful, Fred.  Fear is the driving force that causes people to withdraw from the world into their safe shell.  It’s the reason they magnify politicians into supernatural demons and larger than life heroes who will save them.   You’re headed toward a dark place that’s not healthy.  God is still in control.

Bush 2 really pulled the stops on the bullshit.

I don't follow Q. I don't follow Trump. I follow one thing.

I spend quite a bit of time reading. Some very interesting things out of print. Exorcized from the internet.

I'm not the one who needs to be careful (of myself). It is something else.

I wish for you the best.

I think this is exaggerated. I clicked on the #qanon and #qanons hashtag in Twatter, 90% of the posts were anti-Qanon.

@Weird Tolkienish Figure

It isn't.  Anti-Q people usually post under that tag, I guess because it's the one that comes to mind.  The Qers have a list of hashtags/slogans--#TheStormIsComing, #TheStormIsUponUs, @QSentMe, #Qarmy, #GreatAwakening, #WWG1WGA (where we go one we go all), #MAGA.  They can be found posting under those.

I know. That is because you are looking in the other direction.

So you can't see what I see. I can't tell you, I can't warn you. I can't help you. Turn around.

Precisely you have spent enough time on Twitter to "know" the hashtags. You've done the research.  You've forgotten yourself. Good for you.

I’m on Twitter most days.  Also Tumblr.  Also Instagram.  Guess I’m doomed, huh?

Lol, it doesn’t.  Just like posting here doesn’t make me a better person.  It’s all just people using one platform or another to yak at each other.   You filter out what you don’t want and you make use of what you like.  Sometimes you engage with ideas you disagree with, and that’s a good thing.  I agree with Dana Loesch when she said conservatives need to get past the tendency to dismiss & run from social media.  Nothing is going to get changed by holing up in a safe echo chamber. 

I’ve been on Tumblr for years.  It’s known as an outlet for sjws but it’s a lot more than that.  The site is fantastic for graphics, art, aesthetics.  It’s helped me get back into writing and, hopefully, drawing if I ever master the digital art app I bought.  I have good friends there, some from other countries. 

I signed up on Instagram because a friend wanted me to, posted a few pics, followed a few people, and that’s about it.  I pop into the app every day to scroll through my feed and like whatever. 

Twitter is for news, for some of the people I know from Tumblr, and for pricking morons if I’m in the mood.  My favorite thing is the animal feeds and stupid humor accounts. 

All of those platforms have value.  I control how I use them and how much time I allow them.  When I sign up anywhere, I never use my real name, including as a username,  and when asked for a birthdate to register I make one up.  I’m telling you all of this not to justify my usage, but to explain that social media is not wholly malignant.  You’re taking it far too seriously.

Like I said, I agree.  But there’s a good side to it, too, same as wherever humans gather.  There was the guy with the bakery whose son helped him get business.  I’ve seen missing people located, criminals found, pets brought home.  James Woods devotes a lot of his time to that kind of stuff.  He and others were fantastic during the most recent wildfires in California.  People had no way to evacuate their horses, and Twitter organized chains of people with trailers to get them out.

No people to people.

Get on your virtual MD app. Order all yout shit on line. But be so aware and prevalent with Twitter, FB, Instagram, Tumblr. Steemit, Youtube,

Get on your getting on. Without ever having to talk to a person. Face to face.


Trials of the robot, which has a top speed of 10 mph, will begin later this year


From where I work over to the hospital where my wife is at is big stupid loop. There was a guy going down the sidewalk in a motorized wheelchair. He had a sign on the back. Top speed:
3 1/2 MPH.

LOL. A man that lives. In the world where he is not worthy. Dead meat.

Why don't we machine gun his ass down so Fedex can get by to deliver your shit? @Sanguine @Cyber Liberty

Why don't we machine gun down all the people who NEED to pass him by?

Up here at the Castle the only access is a driveway, a couple hundred feet of steep incline.  Motorized wheelchairs can't climb it.  It's the next-best thing to a moat.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Well,, come the apocalypse, you're safe from zombies with mobility issues...

Today I'm re-reading The Zombie Survival Guide.  One of the things that is covered in the sections on terrain types is how dangerous the ones with mobility issues (broken backs, missing legs, etc) are, because you are liable not to see them in high grass, shallow water, etc, since they will be crawling/dragging along the ground.

You need the sort of obstacle which will impale or otherwise cause them to lose that slithering mobility.

New York Slimes alert

The Battle Over Artificial Intelligence

"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/18/opinion/letters/artificial-intelligence.html"


Your reporting on the use of facial recognition in China for “minority identification” is a stark reminder that the battle over the future of artificial intelligence will not simply be about who gathers the top scientists or who is first to innovate. It will also be about who is able to preserve fundamental rights during a period of rapidly changing technology.

The White House has already made some progress on this front, highlighting American values, including privacy and civil liberties, in an executive order earlier this year, and backing an important international framework at the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. But there is much more to be done.

The United States must work with other democratic countries to establish red lines for certain A.I. applications and ensure fairness, accountability and transparency as A.I. systems are deployed.

The administration should open the American policy process to ensure that the voice of civil society is heard. And the United States should be prepared to make oppressive uses of A.I. a trade issue that could trigger sanctions and more.

Coming of Age in the Age of AI: The First Fully Digital Generation

The first generation to grow up entirely in the 21st century will never remember a time before smartphones or smart assistants. They will likely be the first children to ride in self-driving cars, as well as the first whose healthcare and education could be increasingly turned over to artificially intelligent machines.

Futurists, demographers, and marketers have yet to agree on the specifics of what defines the next wave of humanity to follow Generation Z. That hasn’t stopped some, like Australian futurist Mark McCrindle, from coining the term Generation Alpha, denoting a sort of reboot of society in a fully-realized digital age.

The way things are going it's looking more like we've seen the last generation to grow up entirely.

Their is evidence that all life is artificially created.

made by human skill; produced by humans (opposed to natural): artificial flowers.
imitation; simulated; sham: artificial vanilla flavoring.
lacking naturalness or spontaneity; forced; contrived; feigned: an artificial smile.
full of affectation; affected; stilted: artificial manners; artificial speech.
made without regard to the particular needs of a situation, person, etc.; imposed arbitrarily; unnatural: artificial rules for dormitory residents.
Biology. based on arbitrary, superficial characteristics rather than natural, organic relationships:

YAWHEW

Fake that.

Did the get the shopping part out tonite. Father's Day and our 33rd anniversary. Point being, the spot we went to. We go there two or five times a year. It is a restaurant/microbrew and I did indulge in a "Cream Ale". I asked our waiter if they had cameras in the place and he said yeah, 22. And all I mean by that is if I hand a five to the waiter it is meant for that waiter at service and not going to be some back biting bitch. Why they give you 5? Why you don't report that?

Do they eat sh*t and make maggots?

Like the old joke about some guy who told God he could do everything He could.

God reached down and scooped up a bit of dirt, breathed on it and a bluebird flew away.

The guy said "No problem", and reached down....

God said " That's cheating, make your own dirt."
