I keep thinking of the scene in the movie "Network" where Ned Beatty as the network boss reads the riot act to Howard Beale about how the world really runs. "Mr. Beale! You have meddled with the forces of nature and you will atone!!!"

I wish our rulers were just flawed human beings, which is, I think, what you are suggesting, Gary. The problem I have with that idea is that I never viewed human beings (none of them) as having sufficient competence to pull off the current malevolent scheme of control. This A.I., or technocratic "thing" is just way too comprehensive and all encompassing to suggest that human brains are behind all of this horror. Yes, the Jews, as a group, are capable of a lot of financial consolidation and solidarity (to a degree) in pulling that off, but there is just so much more, and I can't conceive that this is a Jewish project in its "grand" conception. On the other hand we have these bizarre "people" from God knows where who suddenly burst on the scene a few years ago and took everything over, without lifting a finger, it seemed. Musk, with all of of his modernistic inventions , and Thiel, with all of his technological war-fighting prowess? They are not human types that I recognize. I would just note that Peter Thiel, under a thinly disguised alias, called me out last year for a comment I made on another website, very much of the gist of what I am saying here, and accused me of being a poor specimen of humanity, saying in furtherance of this accusation, that he had some doubts as to whether it was a very good idea to have embodied himself as a human being on this planet, given the deficiencies of the species. Discount it all if you like, and maybe I was jumping to conclusions, but these remarks were so far removed from the general tenor of the discussion on that website, that I took them quite seriously, which is why I bring it up here. Could have been some crackpot toying with me and my outlandish ideas, but my experience with crackpots is that there is an element of goofiness in some aspect of their remarks. This "guy" , who doesn't mind being associated with the Thiel name , seemed quite serious.
