@kalezelden 2/2...& so out of sync with reality as to be quite literally insane.If intelligence is the ability to see the world as it is, these people are morons-"genius" IQs notwithstanding. It takes a certain mental handicap to look into a child's eyes & not see someone looking back at you

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden 1/2 Some people think house pets aren't conscious. A consequence of the materialist metaphysic: If consciousness is 'emergent', an insufficiently complex brain must not be capable of generating it. They don't suspect for a moment that their worldview is completely inverted. . .

@DarkMatter2525 @Sargon_of_Akkad Prison *is* torture. In the US, it's where tens of thousands of young men go every year to be serially raped. Floggings are a cakewalk by comparison

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@Sargon_of_Akkad Floggings would be more humane than 95% of the correctional institutions in the United States. Not sure about Britain

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden Most of you are unwittingly serving strange gods. Being online at all & interacting with social media in particular makes you vulnerable to their influence. As for conspiracies: Cosmic conspiracies contain & direct human conspiracies, so that there's no real line of demarcation

@MattInformed I had the thought while fueling the ambulance tonight that our medical equipment isn't likely to improve any time soon. AI tech will be used to surveil & control us, but the benefits won't accrue to us at all. We'll be left in third world conditions

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@PrepperCanadian They might just skip a few rungs on the escalation ladder & go straight to nukes. Imagine what a single tactical nuke dropped on Rotterdam would do to the European economy/appetite for war

@JOEBOTxyz Why not the "Super Duper Intelligence"? Since we're all suddenly 8 years old

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@JOEBOTxyz I predicted years ago that life would imitate art and actual terminators would be built, modeled off the film franchise, & deployed as--well--terminators. Looks like that future is starting to take shape. It will be doubly ironic when they're built/deployed by an AI

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden AI regulation is a joke. Oldest mistake in the book: Summoning a demon thinking you're going to control it

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@chrismartenson @lsferguson D's won't win in November. Their support for WW3 would be too obvious if they did. R's will pull off a "surprise victory". D's will continue to pretend to be anti-war. Illusion of choice and all that

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@JOEBOTxyz You should reread Reign of Quantity. Specifically what he says about human beings being whittled down as near as possible to numerical units, 'bodies without souls'. It's been happening for more than a century & it's accelerating. Humans don't end machines, we become them

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden @IAmPascio It's not a thought experiment, it's reality. Since the onset of the Industrial Revolution, humans have been increasingly styled after the fashion of machines, reduced as much as possible to completely interchangeable units. We increasingly resemble the widgets we mass produce

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@StefanMolyneux The universe is in a state of becoming. It never 'just is'. Being is

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@JOEBOTxyz I can't believe I voted for this piece of shit 3 times. Boy, did I ever get suckered

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden The 'God' they're building will be 'omniscient' (digital panopticon), & 'omnipotent' (able to exert its will on anyone at any time). But of course, God is not built from the bottom up, but manifests himself from the top down. This is his parodistic inversion: Satan

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@JOEBOTxyz Everything's a psyop. 99% of public discourse is mediated by a handful of tech companies--who all have ties to the national security state. The social engineers now have 24/7 access to our minds. It's MKUltra on a population scale

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@kalezelden Clearly. Digital porn is the closest we've come (so far) to fully embodied succubi (with technology as the medium; discounting actual materializations of demons who have sex with humans, some of which can be found in the UFO literature)

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@WeTheBrandon The real question is whether or not she was in a psychotic state/whether said state led her to believe killing her kids was 'good for them'. So it boils down to whether or not she's telling the truth,but nobody on either side seems to care about the truth. It's all so politicized

[The Leperchaun @LarryLeperchaun]

@DBGardenhire @kalezelden "This odd spiritualization buys into the massive philosophical category of hardened materialism/determinism that is driving both the doomers and the feverish optimists"

I'm not a materialist. My favorite thinker is Rene Guenon. Try again
