That long? Youre brave man. Nearly impossible to live normally and travel without a smartphone that can get the latest airline app and hotel key card app, I hate it but thats how it is.
Don’t your family and friends think youre insane? My friends cant fathom that I want to use signal instead of Snapchat or fb messenger because its hard and scary and “dark web”. Any link from the fediverse ive ever sent them they are terrified of because they think it’s the dark web. Its hilarious.
Would you actively call up murderous thieves and criminals and con-men to tell them everything about you and your friends, let them in on your every conversation, even tell them your exact location and even your innermost unuttered thoughts, constantly?
I don’t see why it’s more sane to do it passively, letting the corporation and their spook friends conveniently do that for you.
I used to work in advertising [before Bill Hicks saved me, just as I got into TV adverts]. I was “just doing my job”, to the best of my ability, to serve my client, maximally manipulating minds, perverting perceptions, preferences and purchases. This was years before smart phones. My meagre team of two still managed to shape public perception, changed the culture. The things I would have done had I had the data available via the spyware so normalised today. The things I would have done had I had the millions of resources the corporations and governments have. I avoid such because I’m effectively a whistle blower for the advertising industry, and reformed abuser of peoples minds. And I’m of sufficient ethical and moral fiber to have got out. The ruthless psychopaths who are happily still doing it, are not going to hold back. Hijacking peoples minds, their perceptions, their preferences, and not just their purchases, but their purpose, is frighteningly easier than you (have been conditioned to) think. It’s much harder to de-program people back into a cognitively-competent free-thinking de-hypnotised state. It’s easy to subliminally suggest associations, drip-fed over time, without them realising. “90% of advertising is wasted” we used to say, before it was targeted. And that was fine. That was still sufficient efficiency. The other 90% wasn’t for you, it was for other people. None of it was really wasted, if it was done well. Would you actively tell an advertiser, a mind-manipulator, a con-man striving to serve their master who wants to extract all wealth from you and exact total control over you, everything about you? If so, the hour may be later than you’ve been led to think.
The fear of what other people think is a powerful induction to get people even more easily manipulated into group-think. Then advertising/psyop costs drop dramatically. People succumb to mass-formation, where they police each others thoughts for the advertiser/psyop-agency. This is the psychology of totalitarianism, not just so duped to be so suggestible, but in a runaway state of delusion where any and all atrocities are seen as necessary virtues in service of “the one true way”, with the limbic reactive portions at the back of the brain responsible for fear reflex have completely taken over from the forebrain where more reasonable responsible creative and critical thinking can happen. And a mobile phone can easily be used to actively emit inaudible frequencies to tweak these brainwaves, much the same as sound therapy works, but when it’s also able to actively read the feedback from all the biometrics, it’s like a cold-reading conman with thousands of times more information and insight into what your inner experience is than the most competent and ruthless mentalist. Able to play you better than Vanessa Mae plays the fiddle. A little nudge here, and there, a script to respond to this or that thought had with this or that association… and all the billions of resources to deploy it…
No I don’t have a mobile phone. I know what I would have done with it when it was still “just my job” to maximally manipulate people with it. I know (just some of) what potential is probably being used. Heck, just look at the groupthink and silly notions like fearing emancipatory-potentialled open-web technology such as the fediverse as if it’s the big scary deep dark-web… Cui Bono? Ever had the experience of receiving an advert for something you’ve been speaking about? Or how about just thinking about? But that’s fine. Nothing to worry about. Maybe the corporation cares. And maybe somehoe the psychopathic structure, and the psychopathic self-selecting, somehow did not happen for the bits that reach you, and everything’s fine.
If everybody else around went and jumped off a cliff, would you follow?
Better jump. Wouldn’t want them to think you’re insane for not jumping with them.
While I admire that, most people, myself included, have way too much going on in life to get into all the underground tech stuff. And im done convincing friends or family to change. Its never going to happen.
If I only run linux on all my pcs and also get a light phone, thats great, but everyone else I communicate with is on corpo net, so really it makes no difference. The population is dumb and tired, and there’s no way back. People refuse to even look at Terminal if they had to fix something in linux. They’ve been spoon fed, and theyre patience is long gone. Its over, and there’s a very very tiny subset of us who can or will resist.
Also you are quite well spoken and I appreciate your comment, but to a normal person you would likely come off as a complete nutjob-not to be mean, but thats how it is.
I decline the implicit invite to complicity in the degeneracy via defeatism. ;)
I appreciate the good luck, and acknowledgement of the difficulty of the situation.
We can still mend this.
For one example for a glimmer of hope, the FSF announced a few months back, https://www.fsf.org/news/librephone-project to make low level free software for phones. Couple that with those seeking to make free software operating system interfaces for phones, and those seeking to make phones with right to repair… and things are not so dark. Increasing awareness still grows. The tighter the rotters squeeze, the more slip through the fingers. We are in a lot of trouble, but we can still mend this.
The recent changes to M$ windoze has created another wave of windows refugees… many of them are finding it astonishing how much their new GNU+Linux operating system respects them, … some are even getting into a Free Software philosophy, eager to learn, to give back, asking not what linux can do for them, but what they can do for free software, getting out of the atrophied-ability trap of consumerist stockholm syndrome.
More integrity in sounding like a nut-job, planting honest seeds, hoping one day they take root, than deploying the skills I learned in advertising to manipulate people. All part of the message, by example. Maybe a few more nutjobs will drop their masks that perpetuate the normalised degeneracy.
Anyhoo,
Thanks for that reply. Good stuff. Well… better than an attack for being a nutjob windbag. ;D
That is good! There is some hope. Not in my town or friend group but hopefully elsewhere !
Dormant fertile ground… locked imbalanced past a mending tipping point yet to be reached.
Difficult to see, to predict, what seeds are needed to restore growth and have minds bloom again.
Many stressors chemical, physical, and emotional, maintain the prisons they know, and the prisons they do not realise exist in them.
The complexity can overwhelm courage and hope, but under all that, there are still many deeply evolved systems to recouperate by, and the mends may be far nearer in reach, with less intervention required, certainly than the entirety of the intricacies.
Which splinter in their paw to remove, that enables the cascade to mends, I know not, from here, down in the mini-me consciousness without access to omniscience… and perhaps even if in omniscience, may know some better karmic processing due to proceed than to interfere… though that’s not to say it’s either for sure mendable, nor for sure impossible.
It’s merely necessary to do.
Mendwards! :D
You must be a very interesting person. Thanks for the reply
Eeeehehehehe. Ego tickles.
Everybody’s interesting. Just some hide it, some have been marred by the manipulations. (Sorry each and all, again, for my prior part in doing that.).
… Ego still wants to explore my special very interestingness… ha! Got many metrics to corroborate that notion… but that derailment likely wouldn’t help, the issue here, nor my interestingness. Can’t get there from here. ;D
