Technocracy Roundtable: What is Technocracy?

 Technocracy is the science of social engineering, aiming to control the entire system of producing and distributing goods and services. It also aims to eliminate private property, politics and finance.

The same Technocratic plan devised in the 1930s is being implemented today. The difference is that now, the Technocrats have the technology, such as AI, to implement their plans, which include an energy credit-based system and a universal basic income, which is conditional on a social credit score.

Yesterday, the first Technocracy Roundtable was held. Moderated by Courtenay Turner, the panellists were Patrick Wood, Aaron Day and Craig Wenclewicz.

Patrick Wood has been exposing Technocracy for 15 years and has written three books on the topic. Courtenay Turner is a philosopher and podcast host. Aaron Day is an entrepreneur, investor, advisor, author and political activist. Craig Wenclewicz is a seasoned Wall Street veteran and host of World HD, a daily financial news and education platform.

“Courtenay understands Technocracy like the back of her hand,” Patrick Wood said. “Aaron Day has been writing and speaking forcefully against Technocracy, as has Craig Wenclewicz. They bring expertise in financial investments and the cryptocurrency world.”

After the participants introduced themselves, the Roundtable began by answering the question: What is Technocracy?...<<<Read More>>>...

Photonic revolution: New chips process data using light instead of electricity

 Two technology companies have unveiled breakthrough computer components that process information using laser light instead of electricity, potentially revolutionizing computing as traditional chip advancement stalls. The announcements, published April 9 in Nature, demonstrate photonic computing solutions from Lightelligence and Lightmatter that perform real-world tasks with greater speed and efficiency than conventional electronic processors.

"These light-based, or photonic, components can do things that we care about, and that they can do them better than electronic chips that we already have," says Anthony Rizzo, a photonics engineer at Dartmouth College who was not involved in either study...<<<Read More>>>....

Technocracy: The system of control that makes reality engineering possible on a global scale

 The world’s “reality” is being engineered through sophisticated technological systems and digital barriers. These create a manufactured environment controlled by technocracy, a system of control passed down through institutions and bloodlines, involving key figures such as the Huxley brothers and the Rockefeller family.

The technocratic agenda has shifted from creating compliant workers to managing population reduction, with a focus on artificial intelligence, automation and climate change messaging.

Joshua Stylman suggests that resistance to the technocratic grid can be achieved through actions such as implementing strong privacy practices, developing critical media literacy skills and building local support networks. He also recommends supporting decentralised technologies and creating parallel systems for education and information sharing.

Yesterday, Brownstone Institute published an essay by Joshua Stylman titled ‘The Technocratic Blueprint’. We have paraphrased Stylman’s essay below but we encourage our readers to take the time to read the full essay which you can find HERE or HERE.

The world is increasingly engineered through sophisticated technological systems and invisible digital constraints, creating a manufactured environment that is similar to the one depicted in The Truman Show, where reality itself is manipulated and controlled.

The driving force behind this manufactured world is technocracy, a system of control that has been passed down through institutions and bloodlines, with key figures such as Thomas Henry Huxley, known as “Darwin’s Bulldog,” and his descendants, including Aldous and Julian Huxley, playing important roles in shaping the modern world order.

The connections between these people and other influential families, such as the Darwins and the Rockefellers, have created a powerful nexus of influence that spans science, culture and governance, and has evolved to incorporate new technological capabilities.

Rockefeller once declared that “we need a nation of workers, not thinkers.”

Today, the focus of the technocratic agenda has shifted from creating compliant workers to managing population reduction, as artificial intelligence and automation eliminate the need for human labour, with BlackRock CEO Larry Fink explicitly stating that countries with declining populations will be more easily able to substitute humans with machines.

The evolving agenda is reflected in various developments, including climate change messaging, declining birth rates and the normalisation of euthanasia, which are not random but rather logical extensions of the technocratic plan to manage and control the population....<<<Read More>>>...

Taking a break from smartphones: Study confirms its benefits

A month-long randomized control trial confirms that reducing the time spent on smartphones to access the internet makes people happier and more focused.

On average, Americans spend almost five hours a day using their smartphones, and half of Americans who use smartphones worry they use their devices too much. Noah Castelo and colleagues sought to determine whether constant access to the Internet through smartphones harms cognitive functioning and mental health. Their results are published in PNAS Nexus.

The authors recruited 467 participants from Prolific.co, an online labor pool, to install an app on their iPhones that blocked all internet access on their phones. Half the participants had their phones blocked for the first two weeks, during which time the other half of participants functioned as a control. The groups switched treatments for the second two-week period....<<<Read More>>>...

Technocracy Ascending-Part 1: Why It’s Crucial to Understand the End Game

 Major shake-ups are occurring across the global stage. History is replete with examples of breaks with the past from major political, economic, technological, and social upheaval. Throughout the ages, many self-serving individuals and groups have positioned themselves as rulers, financiers, benefactors, and thought leaders to steer change toward preferred outcomes. From the Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt to the Jacobin and Napoleon-led French Revolution in the late 18^th century, societal transformation has been constant as one form of government replaces another.

We have now arrived at yet another historical inflection point. The desire for political and economic reconstruction is being demanded globally as the gap between the ultra-wealthy and everyone else continues to accelerate. In recent years, populism has taken flight by inspiring the masses to reject the rule of “the elite” and chart a new course. However, without scrutiny, this movement and its key figures could be just as dangerous as the establishment they are attempting to usurp. In fact, what we are witnessing is not populism in its truest sense but techno-populism or technocracy, as it has been called since its inception in 1920....<<<Read More>>>...

Global IT Outage: How ‘The Cloud’ Increases Our Vulnerabilities

 Screens brighten with the flow of words. Perhaps they are emails, hastily scrawled on smart devices, or emoji-laden messages exchanged between friends or families. On this same river of the digital, millions flock to binge their favorite television programming, to stream pornography, or enter the sprawling worlds of massively multiplayer online roleplaying games, or simply to look up the meaning of an obscure word or the location of the nearest COVID-19 testing center.

Whatever your query, desire, or purpose, the internet provides, and all of the complexity of everything from unboxing videos to do-it-yourself blogs are contained within infinitely complex strings of bits. As they travel across time and space at the speed of light, beneath our oceans in fiber optic cables thinner than human hairs, these dense packets of information, instructions for pixels or characters or frames encoded in ones and zeros, unravel to create the digital veneer before you now. The words you are reading are a point of entry into an ethereal realm that many call the “Cloud.”

While in technical parlance the “Cloud” might refer to the pooling of computing resources over a network, in popular culture, “Cloud” has come to signify and encompass the full gamut of infrastructures that make online activity possible, everything from Instagram to Hulu to Google Drive.

Like a puffy cumulus drifting across a clear blue sky, refusing to maintain a solid shape or form, the Cloud of the digital is elusive, its inner workings largely mysterious to the wider public, an example of what MIT cybernetician Norbert Weiner once called a “black box.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Additions to technocrats’ surveillance toolkit: Microfliers, human-computer networks and AI

 The flying microchip – developed by Korean-funded scientists at Northwestern University – is about the size of a grain of sand. It does not have a motor or engine. Instead, it catches flight on the wind – much like a maple tree’s propeller seed – and spins like a helicopter through the air toward the ground.

“Large, distributed collections of miniaturised, wireless electronic devices may form the basis of future systems for environmental monitoring, population surveillance, disease management and other applications that demand coverage over expansive spatial scales. Aerial schemes to distribute the components for such networks are required, and – inspired by wind-dispersed seeds,” the researchers

Scientists invent dirt-fuelled power source that 'lasts forever', based on 113 year-old tech

Scientists have developed a new type of fuel cell that can provide endless power through electricity harvested from dirt.

A team from Northwestern University in the US say the book-sized unit could be used to power sensors used in farming, as well as remote devices in the Internet of Things (IoT).

The technology works by generating electricity from naturally-occurring bacteria within the soil, offering a sustainable and renewable alternative to toxic and flammable batteries.

"These microbes are ubiquitous; they already live in soil everywhere," said George Wells, an associate professor of civil and environmental engineering at Northwestern University.

"We can use very simple engineered systems to capture their electricity. We're not going to power entire cities with this energy. But we can capture minute amounts of energy to fuel practical, low-power applications."

The soil-based microbial fuel cell (MFC) is based on a 113-year-old technology first developed by British botanist Michael Cressé Potter, who was the first person to successfully generate electricity from microorganisms.

It took until the 21st century for the first commercial applications to be proposed, with Foster's Brewing using a prototype to convert the yeast in brewery wastewater into electricity.

The latest fuel cell was tested in wet and dry conditions to power sensors measuring soil moisture and detecting touch, outlasting the power of similar technologies by 120 per cent.

"The number of devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) is constantly growing. If we imagine a future with trillions of these devices, we cannot build every one of them out of lithium, heavy metals and toxins that are dangerous to the environment," said Northwestern alumnus Bill Yen, who led the research.

"We need to find alternatives that can provide low amounts of energy to power a decentralised network of devices... As long as there is organic carbon in the soil for the microbes to break down, the fuel cell can potentially last forever."...<<<Read More>>>....

Exposing The Agenda To Implement Global Totalitarianism Based On Technocratic & Transhumanist Ideologies

 It’s become absolutely crucial to understand what we’re up against, globally, and who’s responsible for the rising totalitarianism and their ultimate intention.

The COVID pandemic was a coup d’état by the technocratic cabal that is behind the global takeover agenda, referred to as The Great Reset.

The Great Reset was introduced by the World Economic Forum, which is tightly coupled to the United Nations and the World Health Organization. Their agenda is to implement a global type of totalitarianism based on technocratic and transhumanist ideologies. Part of that plan also includes reengineering and controlling all life forms, including humans.

While the outward expression of technocracy will appear as totalitarianism, the control center is not an individual. Rather than a single person ruling by the decree, technocracy relies on control through technology and algorithm. This is a very important difference.

In short, there will be no individual to blame or hold accountable. The “dictator” is an algorithm

Technocrats and their politicians lead us down a path to sickness and death

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook and Instagram parent Meta has now admitted that they incorrectly censored information about the pandemic under pressure from governments. In an interview with podcaster Lex Fridman released on 8 June Zuckerberg said:

Just take some of the stuff around covid earlier in the pandemic where there were real health implications, but there hadn’t been time to fully vet a bunch of the scientific assumptions … And unfortunately, the establishment kind of waffled on a bunch of facts and asked for a bunch of things to be censored that, in retrospect, ended up being more debatable or true.

So how did government departments come to censor social media, deleting factual information and genuine scientific debate? The answer reveals a lot about the ignorance of politicians and the media....<<<Read More>>>...

Ex-Google engineer warns Microsoft’s AI-powered Bing chatbot could be sentient

 A former Google engineer fired by the company last year after claiming the company had developed a sentient artificial intelligence (AI) now believes Microsoft’s AI-powered chatbot may have also gained sentience. Lemoine gained prominence last June when he went to the press to warn that Google’s language model program, the Language Model for Dialogue Applications, has gained sentience. He was immediately fired for his claims, with Google claiming that the former engineer was merely anthropomorphizing an “impressive” program. 

In his opinion piece, Lemoine warned that AI is a “very powerful technology” that has not been sufficiently tested and is not properly understood, even by its developers. If AI were to be deployed on a large scale, such as what Microsoft plans to do with its Bing chatbot, it would play a critical role in the dissemination of information and could lead to many people being led astray.

“People are going to Google and Bing to try and learn about the world. And now, instead of having indexes curated by humans, we’re talking to artificial people,” wrote Lemoine. “I believe we do not understand these artificial people we’ve created well enough yet to put them in such a critical role.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Tools of Technocracy: Technologies That Are Being Weaponised Against People

 In the past, tyrants and dictators have had a hard limit on how far they could push people. From either logistical difficulty, fear of resistance, or liberation from other nations. These hard limits have been getting softer and softer as technology advances. Recent history has shown an ever-increasing centralisation of power into a smaller and smaller set of control structures.

We, as everyday people, have been complicit in building and maintaining these control structures. Almost every technology has allowed people to trade privacy, security, or freedom for convenience. Technology isn’t inherently bad but allowing this power to go unchecked absolutely is.

The sum total of what the world is constructing is nothing short of a planet-wide enslavement grid that has never been possible before. The individual parts create feedback loops that make it very difficult for people to extrapolate the long-term impacts.

The tyrants of the world are winning a massive arms race against the rest of humanity. We must not merely avoid these systems, rather every one of us is responsible for preventing them from being weaponised against the people....<<<Read More>>>....

Move Aside Petty Human, Robots are Taking Over

 Artificial intelligence is expected to hijack the economy and beyond in ways that have never been seen before in history. It’s no longer a subject of debate as even the most hardcore sci-fi geek sees various concerns with how these corporations are developing them without any limits. People can’t really do anything because they lack the tech-specific knowledge, and/or are too busy struggling to make ends meet. We are basically being told that robots are taking over our lives and there’s nothing we can do about it. The people have no say. It’s like surrendering to some unknown foreign race without even fighting a war.

If you told any country that you are going to enter their territory, take their jobs, dictate communication, censor their speech, and monitor their citizens, you’d be asking for a grand scale world war. Robots are doing just that, and not a peep against the tech giants responsible. No struggle, no riots, just quiet complacency. The natural reaction for any civilization would be to fight back, but people are moving aside to clear a path for the robots, with many even studying engineering to further propel the world in that direction.

Somehow it’s okay for robots to just barge in our world and do as they please while raking in more profits for the tech giants. Some people expressed concerns about Big Tech pumping out self-learning robots that can teach itself anything, robots built to patrol animals (will they patrol humans next via robot-police?), and robots learning karate (who’s going to stop an armed cybernetic Bruce Lee with the strength of six gorillas?). If the robots are going to be able to do all of these things, then what do we need people for? Big Tech is making an army of super workers who don’t require a salary, vacations, or breaks. So what are millions of jobless humans going to do? Oh don’t worry, Elon Musk already has the solution – universal income....<<<Read More>>>....

Humanity 2.0: ‘The Fusion Of Our Physical, Digital, And Biological Identities’

 Artificial intelligence is pulling new vaccines out of the Platonic realm. Automated labs are on standby, prepared to crank out alien strands of mRNA and pack them into toxic nanoparticles. A billion empty syringes are waiting on shelves.

This is not science fiction. These jabs will be on the market before you can say “boostah.”

Google. Moderna. Microsoft. They’re all racing to the edge. This is corporate transhumanism in all its avaricious glory, riding waves of propaganda and channeled by the biosecurity state.

These people uphold a new mythos whose axis mundi is the Machine. In their world, digital minds are “dreaming up” novel genetic configurations. Biological systems are treated as “living software.” With each technical advance, their myths bleed into our reality.

Our intelligentsia—the elites “educated beyond their level of intelligence”—are undergoing a sort of religious conversion. Their world has been illuminated by gene sequencing and neural networks.

Their machines have convinced them that living things are just clunky machines. Our immune systems require software updates. Our flawed genomes need debugging. In order to get there, our brains must be augmented....<<<Read More>>>....

Exposing the ‘Digital ID is a Human Right’ Scam

A major component of the Great Reset-Technocratic Agenda is the implementation of a worldwide digital identity scheme. One of the first steps to realize this goal is to convince the public that digital identity programs are a “human right” worth fighting for.

Why is the push for digital identity absolutely vital to the Technocrats visions?

The world of 2030 — the one in which the World Economic Forum imagines “you will own nothing and be happy” — depends on an all-encompassing digital id program. This digital ID will allow a track and trace society where the authorities can see every purchase and every move you make.

One could argue much of society has already handed over this data with the ubiquitous use of credit cards which track purchases, and phones which log GPS data.

However, the digital ID scheme will also be linked to a digital wallet holding the local Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), the digital currency of governments which will be needed for all legal transactions. Eventually, this digital ID and the digital wallet will be connected to, and impacted by, your individual social credit score.

As I have reported since March 2020, these initiatives were already in the works prior to COVID-19. However, it was the beginning of the COVID-19 panic that allowed governments around the world to push further towards their vision of Technocracy.

For example, we have been told that use of cash should be greatly reduced or eliminated altogether because of reports claiming COVID-19 spread through dirty old money. This conveniently leads into the calls for digital currency programs such as CBDCs.

Of course, we see the push for “contact tracing” apps to track the alleged spread of disease, and jjab passport/health passport apps have begun to acclimate the public to carrying a digital ID card with them everywhere they go....<<<Read More>>>...

Robots And People Getting Closer Through Romance And Relationships

 As robots and and humans grow increasingly closer, we’re starting to form all kinds of relationships with machines.

Are you and your phone platonic or are you turning into a machine yourself?

Nearly 84% of the global population is in possession of a smartphone and they’re becoming something we can’t live without.

“We’re already a cyborg,” Elon Musk told Kara Swisher. “You have a digital version of yourself, a partial version of yourself online in the form of your emails, your social media, and all the things that you do.”

Musk’s statement tracks with what roboticists have found in studies about human-robot connections.

Robots are everywhere – in just one morning, a person might use a coffee maker, electric toothbrush and iPhone before leaving the house.

Depending on their function, appearance and experience with the robot, people value robots with varying intensity.

In a study of military personnel and advanced robots, Dr Julie Carpenter found soldiers “frequently described the robot as ‘my hands’ or otherwise as a physical extension of themselves.”

Robots become more than tools to the soldiers they “serve” with – bots are given characteristic names, and the ones that are destroyed in combat are given a soldier’s burials, complete with 21-gun salutes and eulogies.

This concept of projecting human attributes onto an object is called anthropomorphization – and its visible with robots and humans that have been through fewer traumas together than military robots and human soldiers....<<<Read More>>>...

 

The Story of Otis T. Carr: The Man Who Supposedly Invented An ‘Anti-Gravity’ Vehicle In The 1950s

 [The Pulse]: It’s astonishing how the topic of “anti-gravity” technology is still placed in the “conspiracy theory” realm by some. This isn’t the stuff of conspiracy theories or “fringe” science, it’s a field full of reputable scientists, scholars, and real-world examples that have come not only from hard evidence but from extremely credible witness testimony.  History is littered with supposed examples that are surrounded by controversy. This article explores the story of a man by the name of Otis T. Carr (1904-1982).

In the late 1950s, OTC Enterprises, Inc. of Baltimore, Maryland put out a statement that was published in the April 3rd edition of the Baltimore Enterprise. The statement came in the form of a claim that the company was ready to manufacture a flying saucer that was capable of travelling outside of the Earth’s atmosphere. All that was needed was a massive amount of funding, approximately 20 million dollars. The equivalent to that today is probably several billion....<<<Read More>>>...

If you are surrounding yourself with appliances, robots and gadgets that depend on the cloud, you are begging for disaster

 [Natural News]: The recent Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage is a powerful reminder about the detriments of “smart” technology, which is gone in an instant once the “cloud” goes down.

One wonders how many thousands (millions?) of people out there were left without working doorbells, Roomba vacuum cleaners and even refrigerators that normally run on AWS but no longer could during the outage.

According to reports, the disruption began at around 10am EST on December 7. It left many packages unable to be delivered, many streaming media services were down, and patrons of Walt Disney Co. theme parks were unable to enter due to the automation involved with ticket processing and scanning.

Anything that runs on the Amazon “Alexa” system was also disabled, as were people’s Ring smart-doorbell units and other cloud-driven appliances and tech tools.

Sure, these things seem cool in theory. But the reality is that linking to the cloud means that you are also dependent on the cloud. And if the cloud goes away, then suddenly the “smart” life you set up for yourself is over in an instant....<<<Read More>>>...

The Digital Dehumanisation of Mankind

 [Waking Times]: Ray Kurzweil doesn’t have a God to honour. He has a machine, and he wants us all to shift to this digital version of the divine. He wants us to become super-computers in all but name. He calls it ‘the singularity’, a name with a quasi-religious ring to it. The singularity stands for ‘the fusion of the real with the synthetic’.

Kurzweil sees this as a supreme act that will end the need for human evolution by transferring the meaning and purpose of life into a ‘real-time’ electro-digital encyclopedia composed of trillions of soulless electrical circuits that ape what we call ‘knowledge’.

He’s not alone in this way of thinking, there’s Zuckerberg, Schwab, Musk and who knows who else. And then there’s a whole trail of followers stretching out behind, all travelling the same way. Tens of millions, if not billions of them. They don’t describe themselves as believers in ‘the singularity’, they simply worship the same digital totem and allow it to gradually take-over their lives – megabyte by megabyte, gigabyte by gigabyte – until they can no longer be described as human.

When you see people constantly looking downwards, you realise that they are metamorphosing into something less than human. Aspiration – the desire to grow, learn and be more than one is – is an upward moving action. The impulse of aspiration to a state of higher consciousness, is an upwardly rising movement. As a tree or flower reaches for the light, so do we humans.

But those seduced by their cell phones, I pods, tabs et al. always look down. Down into a place where the only light is the LED powered glow on the face of their appliance....<<<Read More>>>....
