Anyone else remember the two Bakersfield REAL doctors, Dr. Dan Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi, who got silenced and whose YouTube video was removed due to “misinformation” during COVID, all because they provided science-based info to the public that went against the “experts”?
Something is at war with us, “us” being regular citizens who want things to work and to be left alone. We’re slow to react because we think in terms of nations. Our enemies are mafias that wear our governments like a cloak to defeat our eyes, and fly our flags to disarm our minds
Roger Penrose just broke the most expensive assumption in human history.
Every major AI lab operates on one belief.
Scale it far enough and consciousness just appears.
Penrose: “There is this sort of view that once you make a computer complicated enough or something, it suddenly becomes aware. I just don’t believe that. There’s no reason to believe that.”
Nobel Prize in Physics.
Proved black holes are inevitable from general relativity alone.
And he’s calling the foundational thesis of the entire AI industry a baseless assertion.
Not flawed. Not premature.
Baseless.
No one proved that complexity produces consciousness.
No experiment. No paper. No mathematical proof.
The most technologically advanced industry built its core thesis on an assumption indistinguishable from faith.
Penrose: “The keyword is the word ‘understanding.’ You can follow rules alright, but we don’t understand what we’re doing. The understanding is the key point.”
These models don’t understand anything.
Not the questions. Not the answers. Not a single word they generate.
They process. They predict. They output.
But understanding requires something no architecture has ever produced.
Awareness.
Penrose: “It doesn’t make sense to say of a device that it understands something if it’s not even aware of it. There is something much more profound in being conscious of something.”
They built the most sophisticated language machines in history.
Not one has ever experienced a single moment of its own existence.
Penrose: “There is something quite different involved in understanding things, in being aware of things, of feeling things, which is not part of computations.”
Awareness is not a software update.
Consciousness is not a scaling problem.
You cannot build what you cannot define.
And no one alive has defined consciousness.
Penrose: “I believe that the brain is following the laws of physics, sure. We don’t have a good picture of the laws of physics.”
Penrose: “Quantum mechanics is not an answer to the way the universe operates. It’s a partial answer. It’s incomplete.”
The physics that lets you read this sentence and know that you’re reading it might not exist in any textbook on Earth.
We are not just trying to build machines that think.
We are trying to engineer something we experience every second of our lives and cannot explain.
You are proof of that right now.
You are conscious. You know you exist. You feel yourself thinking.
No one alive can tell you what that is.
That is what the largest investment in human history is trying to build.
In 1998, during the DOJ Microsoft monopoly trial, Bill Gates was secretly recorded under oath.
He refused to answer simple, direct questions — squirming, dodging, and behaving like a cornered suspect instead of a billionaire CEO.
This is the same man millions of people still look to for health advice, vaccines, pandemics, and “global solutions.”
A man who evaded accountability in a courtroom now influences WHO policy, pushes experimental shots on the world, and funds global health agendas.
Gates is a psychopath and belongs in prison...
I think we are watching a real-life version of The Apprentice right now with Marco Rubio.
Years ago, one of Trump’s sons told me that his dad had a strict rule for his kids: If you ever want to take over this business, you have to know EVERY SINGLE JOB. You sweep the floors, you learn the pipe fitting, you pour the concrete. Why? Because if you don't know what everyone does, people are going to BS you.
That's what I believe he's doing with Rubio. He has worn four hats at the same time—Secretary of State, USAID Director, National Security Advisor, even Acting Archivist of the United States. If there is a fire anywhere on the planet, Trump tells Marco to go out and hold the hose.
So, is Donald Trump training up Marco Rubio to be his presidential successor? It sure looks that way to me. But what do you think?
My dad didn’t deserve to die how he died when he died. He and my son deserved more time together. My siblings and I don’t deserve having no parents in our 30s. His death will always be a tragedy and the world will always be a worse place because this happened.
You want to know how brainwashed people are in Canada?
I saw this at the entrance of an antique shop the middle of rural Quebec.
In an area that relies heavily on the tourism.
A sign that likely violates Quebec’s language laws (signs must be bilingual and the French portion needs to be “clearly predominant”).
Pure brainwashed idiocy.
The definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.
This man would rather lose money than take it from his ideological adversaries.
And he is filled with such hate, he feels compelled to share it with the world.
Needless to say, we did not enter the store.
@StuartHameroff Yes. The holonomic brain theory is excellent, but single-celled organisms show clear learning and memory without neurons or brain waves, requiring a fundamental subcellular oscillatory mechanism.
Gratitude to the universe and to all friends everywhere for so many kind wishes. My cardiac surgery went well -- better than expected. I'll update properly next week. Meanwhile, I'm home, surrounded by love, am enjoying a great reawakening of energy and intend to dive into writing Chapter 21 of my new book tomorrow. Happy Summer Solstice!
🚨 Big Tech just saved Canadians from their own government.
Here’s what Bill C-22 would have done to your phone. 👇
📌 The Liberal bill would force companies to build technical backdoors into encrypted devices - giving government access without a judge’s approval.
📌 Secret orders. No judicial oversight. No transparency with users. Ministers could compel compliance unilaterally.
📌 User metadata retained for up to one year. Mandatory.
Then Big Tech showed up.
📌 Apple to Parliament: “When you build a backdoor into an encrypted device - anyone can walk through.”
📌 Google: Bill C-22 “goes well beyond lawful access regimes in other G7 democracies.”
📌 Meta: The bill would make WhatsApp and Messenger “an extension of the government’s surveillance apparatus.”
📌 Signal, NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Windscribe, ProtonVPN all threatened to leave Canada entirely if it passed.
📌 Apple pointed to the 2024 Salt Typhoon cyberattack on US systems - which exploited the exact same “lawful access” infrastructure Carney wants to build here.
“That law was narrower than Bill C-22. Imagine what could happen here.”
Think about that. 👆
The Chinese government hacked US systems through a legal backdoor Washington created.
Carney wants to build a bigger one. In Canada.
And he didn’t ask you. 🤐
This isn’t about catching criminals.
If it was - they’d require a judge.
This is a government that funded $1.4B in CBC propaganda, appointed 740 judges, captured 105 senators —
And now wants a backdoor into your phone. 📱
Without a warrant. 👇
Apple and Google did more to protect Canadian civil liberties this month than the Liberal Party has in 10 years.
Let that land. 🇨🇦

It should alarm every Canadian that the primary use the Liberals have made of their new, backroom, bribe-bought majority has been to ram through legislation that censors the internet, spies on citizens, and lays the groundwork for a virtual surveillance state.
i came to the conclusion that this story is so awful that we have no way to punish it. to commit to an appropriate measure of justice is beyond our willingness to do it.
