"We're not in it for the money"

No, they're in it for the control and social engineering.

Ahahaha, back when the news was still relatively important.

I'd like to say they were more honest back then but I specifically remember two stories that I absolutely know are lies as of today, both firearm related for some reason.

When Glock first started importing it's handguns into the country there was a mass fear being instilled that these firearms could avoid x-ray machines and therefor be smuggled onto planes to be hijacked.

Those evil Black Talons. I watched a segment about how these evil cop killing bullets were being sold........to the public! It actually showed an animation of the bullet "opening up, exposing 6 razor sharp knife like protrusions* and TEARING THROUGH THE HUMAN BODY.

Spoiler, Glocks could and can be detected rather easily by x-ray machines and Black Talons were just hollow point ammunition.

I watched Die Hard over Christmas and one of the bullshit scenes is about Glocks that could pass through metal detectors. They also got the model number wrong.

Probably won't amount to much.

You can fit like 40 characters on a screen and you have to wear a suit to use it.

Remembering a world that had never been Rickrolled or Goatse’d.

It feels like technology is going to swallow humanity. If that makes sense. Idk, it’s how I feel. Either we incorporate it directly (chips in our brain w/e) or we die. It’s like we’re creating a god and the best we can do is incorporate the gods abilities into our monkey bodies. I just can’t fathom how that isn’t the case. Let’s just say we create a classical robot. A humanoid thing that is conscious. It’s going to be connected to all the information we’ve gathered for thousands of years. It’ll be able to access it in fractions of a milliseconds it’ll be able to do the highest math we have in that same speed. Oh and it’ll be building better versions of itself which will build better versions of itself etc. oh and it doesn’t take 9 months. It’ll take 9 weeks to triple its strength. Then 9 minutes. Then 9 seconds. Then it’ll be so fast we can’t even fathom it

It's like we're in a stream of self fulfilling prophecy. Rudolph Steiner sorta predicted something like this with all information and technology leading to the coming of ahriman - some may say the antichrist.

And we've set aside a special humanoid brain chip just for you.

All your going to see are cats and dick pics. But you'll never know where they will appear.
