MODERATORS
youtube kinda made it known, but not officially. GOOGLES involvement with REDDIT is deeper than just search results. they are using thier AI for moderation and other services. hence thier sudden jump in the ability to massive amount of users at once. before people go shake off the bans by using accounts that they aged and not interact with subreddits they were banned in.
DNC/GOP complicit in epstein coverup, either through doing nothing or trying to hide it. DNc had access to files for a while, but they are extremely quiet on it because they some of thier members in the files, plus likely some israeli leaders that have been to islands too. outside of maybe 5ish congressmembers, the rest want the news to stop talking about it. they throw a bone here and there once in a while to prevent any inparty fighting.
also with the election in 2024, of dnc dont want to be accused of"rigging it, but they also dont want to do anything about it too.
Google is munging results it sends to DDG and other filtering search engines
At this point it seem like more of a reach to believe they aren’t
That nobody actually thought kids hiding under the desks would protect them from bombs. It was all a lie to try and reassure people
It depends on how far away you are. Close enough to be instantly vaporized, probably not. Far enough that it just collapses the building, might do some good.
Also in places with false ceilings and hanging fixtures even light shockwaves can cause stuff to fall. Falling stuff, small fragile heads - just better to take cover than not.
That cats sense something we can't. Think of it this way, if we didn't have ears, we wouldn't know there's such thing as sound. Maybe there is some sort of thing that exists that humans lack the organs to percieve but cats can
They kind of do. Not through some extra sense, but because they have insanely good hearing, and very low visual acuity combined with really good motion detection.
They have a completely different perception of the world, basically everything is a blur, but moving objects stand out. That's why cats can stare at an unmoving laser dot: they're not unmoving if you're a cat.
Yea my cat acts like there are things when there aren’t
Yeah but so does a baby
Yeah newborn startle reflex kinda shows that.
What are they startled by nothing changed nothing happened but still they get around like sun bears
My uncle George is like this too
Facebook's mobile website takes way too long to load to encourage you to download the app. Only ever use it for marketplace and the occasional link my friends/coworkers send. I recieved a link on teams and my phone took over 20 seconds to load while my work computer did it instantly and both were on the same wifi. Sometimes it will just refuse to open posts on marketplace, so I have to use my computer.
Yea that is 100% intentional. It's commonplace BS to get you to install the app so they can spy on you more easily.

I suspect that OpenAI is on a path to spend as much money on data centers and hardware as possible so they can go bankrupt and sell those assets to Microsoft for pennies on the dollar.
It's a scheme to filter billions and billions of dollars around the "AI everything" hype train directly into Microsoft's coffers.
Oh no, it's actually much worse.
These LLM datacenters are basically useless for anything but running LLMs. You can't use them for any other cloud software, because all the electronics were specifically made for running LLMs. Really, the only thing that will still be useful is the concrete building and the power and data lines coming in.
No, the actual reason why hundreds of billions of dollars are being spent is because of three things.
-
AI boosters (Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, etc) are excellent liars and great storytellers, and rich people eat that shit up.
-
rich people invest money by the bucket load, and everyone else notices. Stocks go up and everyone notices that LLM stocks go up, making people buy them making stocks go up because surely, something popular must also be good and useful.
-
The people investing money into these lies want to see it happen, so they tell their pet CEOs to implement LLMs and reward them for implementing LLMs. Not for getting a use out of it, but for applying it.
So we get a bunch of people benefitting in the form of massive bonusses for implementing LLMs and pushing the use of LLMs, despite it actually not doing anything useful and being actively detrimental in most cases. All to make the stock line go up, unlocking more bonusses for the ultra rich.
But the LLM itself is pointless. It doesn't even matter if it does anything. It's just a vehicle to inflate fake numbers.
Embrace, extend and extinguish.

I'm gonna sound so schizo, so bear with me:
My most paranoid suspision: History is false, this is a simulation. Humanity is long extinct and aliens have recreated a few humans in a test lab for shits and giggles.
Some lower-stakes suspicion: Okay maybe history isn't fake but someone tampered with my brain and deleted some memories, perhaps negative opinions I have about certain family members were altered to make me less hostile against them. Idk I just read about ECT and I got paranoia.
Or: Maybe my parents aren't my real parents... 👀
someone tampered with my brain and deleted some memories, perhaps negative opinions I have about certain family members were altered to make me less hostile against them.
To what end?
Finally, some real schizoposting here. Everybody else is just putting out hypotheses based on real life evidence while you've given me exactly what I wanted:
Lol those are two separate thoughts, its one or the other, not both. Also I'm not that serious about it.. its more like intrusive thoughts lurking in the back of my mind.
School teaches government propaganda
Likewise, your parents also push propaganda, but more of "how much we sacraficed for you, you are required to love us"
Everyone has their own agenda to push
The US/Israel, China, and Russia are collaborating to divide the entire world between them
This is just the result of a power vacuum/imbalance left by the declining American empire. And there are many more players (the rich af Gulf countries, mainly SA and the UAE, India, Turkey) and some of them are not even nations like banking institutions, technocrats and capitalist oligarchs, and asset management firms, for example.
If I may, I think the reality of things is more like this: the world has realized that the American empire and its vassals can no longer unilaterally make the rules and force every other nation to do their bidding or face the consequences, things have changed both in the US (it's no longer the MIC and banks deciding the direction of the country but now there are multiple conflicting groups of interest; corruption has done its thing and every part of the American empire suffers from theft at every level, the military included) and in the world as a whole and the balance of power has shifted. So, since we're firmly in a post-American hegemony era, all that has to be decided is how this transition will be managed and what America's new role will be in this new world. Before, the whole world belonged de facto to the West, which means ultimately America, now different nodes of power have arisen and power will be distributed between them.
This is also all happening while China is pushing BRICS. Then you have moron American leadership that thinks USAID was the US being nice and costing us money when it was entirely a US soft-power projection strategy that is now a vacuum for China to fill. When idiots that don't understand things vote in idiots that know nothing, the USA loses hegemony and that never comes back. Also, side note, while abysmal for the future of the US, freaking amazing for the world in the long run!
I remember an old interview with a defector Soviet spy. He said infiltrating governments is hard and risky...infiltrate mayor's offices and school boards and push adgeclndas that create useless citizens. Play the generationally long game and the unstoppable US empire will kill itself. Well played sir. You won.

I think we live in a natural Matrix. Formed of biological and social habits of thought and perception. I think that this monstrously warps our perspective and blinds us.
I think that we are surrounded by leprechauns and aliens. We just can't see them.
Average DMT user
I'm actually a longtime meditator (tho I have partaken of hallucinogens in the past). It's pretty great.
John Carpenter's "They Live" style?
Ya sorta
Youtube definitely hinders the experience if you have adblockers. I've had a page load instantly and the video start to buffer immediately, only to refresh on its own a fraction of a second later, load the page slowly, and then wait about 10 seconds before any buffering would happen. If adblockers are disabled, the page loads instantly and the video buffers immediately.
I also regularly get the little popup in the corner saying "Experiencing interruptions?" but shockingly only if the adblocker is enabled. Weird.

Regardless of their nationality, billionaires largely pursue the same interests in order to strengthen their position of power in the political system in which they are most involved.
This is, of course, a conspiracy theory, but the Epstein files, for example, certainly suggest this - as does the fact that billionaires' companies are all multinational and that it is almost impossible to trace where the incredible amounts of capital in the international economic system actually come from (such as the massive concentrations of capital managed by asset managers like Black Rock).
In short: I suspect that the biggest problem facing people worldwide lies in the power of the respective so-called elites, and I think that they coordinate among themselves in order to remain in power or to expand it further.
This is how I explain the resurgence of Nazi ideology, which is actively promoted by billionaires in very different countries.
