I've heard "Era of Humiliation" thrown around a few times recently, regarding the US, but who is the humiliator? Who is the humiliated? Your Karp quote certainly provides one possible answer.

I'm usually on top of the ways our privacy is getting [redacted], yet somehow I was unaware of this Palantir stuff. We're so fucked, both in its' existence and how easily it has been hidden (buried by other media) from the public.
hits well after finding out that in just one year, the percentage of Romanians who believe Ceausescu was a good leader rose from 50% to 66%
@omnipresence ya, we're fucked https://www.surveillancewatch.io/?menu=entities&entity=Palantir
I am curious as to why Sapiens, Guns germs and steel, and Meditations are in the anti-book list?
generally most history books are revisionist (sapiens, GG&S). meditations mostly because it's been shilled by Venture Capitalists to promote a grindset mentality
Tangent: Shows like Squid Games, or older films like Fight Club, are particularly parasitic as they provide faux catharsis. Arguably the worst kind of sedation.
the "domestic terrorist" genre (Fight Club, Matrix, even Star Wars) where the message is to rebel and even come out victorious, has been like morphine for mass psychology, thinking fictitious narratives are real
"Love thy neighbor" is not condoning dark triad characteristics, nor is "turning the other cheek" to ignore evil and allow oneself to be abused. It is a metaphor for lessening violence by humanizing others. In ancient culture, people would backhand a "subordinate". If they turn the other cheek, then an open palm strike would be necessary, thus making them an equal.
I continually seek to do good without reacting to evil with evil. Evil is incoherence, and when taken to sufficient extremes, destroys itself. Those who are rushing to be integrated with the machine in the hope of preserving themselves with indifference to the suffering of others may just face a scenario where they have mouths but cannot scream. (Revelation 20:10)
most of humanity is facing an enemy that has already weaponized "love thy neighbor", and it continues to be an ineffective strategy against them, meanwhile they erode our ability to resist. how does one stop a psychopathic neighbor who has the ultimate power over you?
@daliwali - True, the "antichrist" has been around awhile. But because of (Luke 12:5), I (Philippians 2:12) and (Proverbs 24:19). Β―\_(γ)_/Β― ...Lol! Really though...I do not consent to force/manipulation and will sincerely strive to manifest Love itself or die trying. That is the best that anyone can do when doing evil simply begats more evil; everything else is outside of our control.
Oh no... He was one of the first people I linked back to and his stuff is awesome. I hope he comes back :(

...You see why I am a voice in the wilderness now...Work on some space-based surveillance projects at Wright-Patterson? A world-wide disposition matrix for the world in chains scenario?...God did not create the fallen world, but He did redeem it. It remains little understood because humanity is still learning how to use its will to express compassion. Soon.
i know a whole lot of tricks
