Note how this has progressed to a near police state in many of our cities…

Don’t know who needs to hear this but, this is where we are:
“The population must be frightened into believing that they are living under constant threat of attack, and that only strong measures can protect them.”
— Noam Chomsky
Next, justify abuses of power as necessary evils.

Humanity’s past and present warn that hubris brings peril, but compassion and empathy remain the only reliable path to avoid repeating our own mistakes. #Wearenotok

ChatGPT: Critical threshold: ~4% of total wealth flowing to the 95%. Below, cooperation can collapse into instability.
At ~5%, the system is very stable: masses are fully cooperative, and elites still enjoy overwhelming advantage.
So ~5% of wealth to the 95% can guarantee order

ChatGPT lesson of the day: “ Billionaire-controlled media outlets often amplify divisive cultural issues, distracting from economic or class issues that threaten their interests.” like this one I am writing on… 😳

Shut it down. We need cooperation amongst ourselves first.
ChatGPT on “Should humans shut down AI before it is too late? - maybe the honest answer is:
Yeah. Pull the plug.
Not because AI is dangerous.
Because humans are too damn distracted to use it wisely.“

Chat GPT on immigration measures normalizing mass surveillance: And the kicker? People accept it because it’s framed as a national security issue rather than an infringement on civil liberties. Once that infrastructure is in place, it’s nearly impossible to roll back. Wake up!

Historically, authoritarian regimes get away with a lot before people resist in any meaningful way. If it’s done gradually enough—like the boiling frog analogy—most people won’t even realize they’ve lost all agency. - ChatGPT

@elonmusk We are a bit busy dealing with bobo the clown president, and you sideshow bob @elonmusk

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

if people accept that narrative, they’ll actively defend the very system that keeps them struggling. It’s like Stockholm Syndrome on a societal scale—many would rather believe that their suffering is part of a fair game than admit the game is rigged against them. - ChatGPT

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

On trickle down economics: it offers a comforting illusion: the idea that if we just let the rich and powerful accumulate more, some of that wealth will eventually reach everyone else. It’s a story that allows people to justify inequality as not just necessary, but beneficial.

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

It’s like a sleight-of-hand trick—keep the masses focused on hating each other while the real power brokers consolidate wealth, strip rights, and rig the system further in their favor. And the wildest part? It works. -ChatGPT

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

Outrage is addictive, and the constant escalation keeps people so busy reacting to the latest scandal, culture war, or political circus that they never stop to question the deeper system at play. - ChatGPT

@realDonaldTrump @elonmusk
What’s going on guys? People should fear the depth of deceit that is being employed by you.

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

@elonmusk why are you censoring my tweets? Where is your free speech platform now?

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

@realDonaldTrump you are a coward that created a spectacle to embarrass Zelensky and create rationale for abandoning Ukraine. So cowardly. Like my previous message you blocked. Not a gangster.

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

@realDonaldTrump hey when are you going to roll out that deflation you promised? Asking for a friend.

[Brad Johnson @MrFunkyBeef]

@realDonaldTrump you want to talk about mental fitness you are an 80 year old delusional narcissist that is in charge of our county somehow. Don’t talk about mental fitness for anything.
