If we think about what’s taking place in the world today as a new form of warfare, and we think about the various instruments of that warfare in analogy to, say, naval vessels, we might come to think of a social media platform like Twitter as a kind of powerful battleship for the Enemy forces of today, the USS Twitter. Drawing back to the previous World War for inspiration and insight, in 1941, the Allied Forces sank the German ultra-battleship, the Bismarck, sort of. In that sinking, in fact, Allies critically wounded the ship with a torpedo dropped from a low-flying airplane, and the Nazis sunk the ship themselves from within to prevent its capture. Is that what explains Twitter’s behavior with rampant censorship, bans, lockouts, suspensions, and its open announcement of “fortification” of the upcoming election today? This raises other questions. Do we really need Twitter? Can conservatives strike a mortal blow against one of the Enemy’s most formidable weapons? Join me in this latest episode of James Lindsay OnlySubs, my subscribers-only podcast, to explore some of these issues with me.

James is still smarting from the Twitter ban? 😀
Have not heard the podcast yet, but would speculate on a spectral common denominator going probably? in most major platforms – even the evil bay. It seems to me they are all beta testing Ai for the continentalists – which seems obvious. On the other and how far that has been elucidated may be another matter. If this type hypothesis was reliable, then it renders all that suspended / banned / locked / misunderstood personal resource irony redundant. Wha is more pointless than relying in a belief that reason was at fault when actually their prime objective is the development of a software that must perfect a zero human interaction – i mean the strictly issue bound processes such from the stroke of suspension. I’m not sure how possible it is to attract the attention of a being in the case of many platforms. I would imagine to their chagrin that email a this time is still in use. I would point out that the texture, of the interaction, would by reasonable hypothesis have little similarity if the unknown motive that drives X platforms staff is the desire not to interact at all. Again almost obvious there isn’t it, its just that i rarely hear anybody state that they were scuppered by the Ai. Thus at this time when humans are reluctantly taking part, they are ( in my view ) actually taking their orders from Ai. as it isn’t yet \’fit’ enough to fully run the platform. This still sounds bleeding obvious & whats new. ? Well personally i still eel that a deep seated artefact isn’t obvious enough. A full realisation – the complete picture. – because its hardly out there. On these platforms we would not be arguing with a person even though it is a person at that appeal ( or whatever ) segment of the envelope. It IS the Ai that they dare not disobey. Even though it is merely words on a screen and so far a cripple. These people are working under an existential threat with respect to what they do for a living. They are not allowed to question the decoupled logic of the Ai Misanthrope. This type of software will denial that north is north of south just so that it doesn’t have to engage a bone fide human interaction that involves an actual decision. The informatics people know that in early Ai no interaction can possibly involve any unpredictable events – the engagement must be an set analogue. Yet again here it is possible we are labouring with a neural obstacle that defies our predictions. For instance all this ‘old talk’ like sounding like an old record etc. I would suggest this is a classic simplicity hiding the profound in plain sight. It cannot conceptualise man and woman, so that have been decoupled since men and women will process via its processes – these platforms are desperate to find to make a system full of predetermined answers seem like a seamless compelling interaction with a human – that was reasonable. In other words – Ai that has completely eliminated a being is everything, but the technology does not exist. The weird reception experienced from such persons tends to be semi pseudo incredulous. Often sarcastic & always dodgy & shifty, one dreads to consider the cult religion that has developed among these platform operatives, the battles with conscience, the hardening of the central personality, the dehumanisation bias, the misconception s linked to the great and the good. The lack of awareness concerning the the clone of robert johnsons Crossroads. But – they are sure that something beautiful sides in this. This great machine intelligence which is so vital, that no lie is important.
I’m not going to read back to check for overkill or repetition. I seldom edit my posts nor bother to check spelling – invariably i’m on a chore holiday and need the stimulation, & its a very imperfect poster here. I do not even know if the point i tried to make can succeed tbh.
Every bit of woke is a perfect piece of impeccable but evil logic in the most literal sense. There is no such thing as stupid when it comes to these social engineering. We can know that every destructive or seemingly meaningless Q or womanhood decoupling has a purpose tailor made for a term long equation link to psychosocial manipulation & the sociological chaos required to facilitate it. We can waste our precious time grappling with its human dispensaries all around the twitterers & so on.
Irrationality = Ai Inadequacy. Sarcasm = insulting the intelligence of their software.
Life Ban = serial human non conformist whose scored out by that system.
The above i’d tend to believe is a core archetype, perhaps as it were the most emergent of pressures that would preoccupy people whom are involved with a system that wants this elixir. I do not know what trauma eliminated James,. Was it lack of trans humanist style, was it a showdown where it was clear to twitter transhumans that a capitulation was not going to happen? Was it only the rhetoric ? Or did one of the secret outsource ministries of propaganda ?
Certainly Goebbels would be perplexed concerning the nature of most of these outsources. It would be like a gordon ramsey explosion only on steroids & T- Stoff if that man found a facility warming up catering packs someone elses designs ! – well such as they do in my humble opinion. The middle agencies do not know how or why these things work. As a phenomenologically trained person i state that to a reasonable level of confidence.
This means there is a major weakness at these outsources who are merely speaking out of fundamental dogma unrelated to the psychosocial pulses contained reasonably ? – yes on the whole.
It matters a lot that persons might perceive that factor.
is logic invalid?
