    I saw a speaker recently referring to an old slide from one of these "predict/announce the future" think tanks where the assholes like to gather and pontificate about their tyranny. It's fascinating that in 2001, they were talking about the "IT era" going from 1990-2020, followed by the "nanotech/biotech era". Now the fact of their timing is one thing which cannot be ignored, but personally I've been thinking about the name of the "IT era". I've gotta hand it to them; it's genius. What they have done over the past 30 years is to connect people so solidly to the technologies they control that almost nobody can any longer separate "real life" from "screen life". Because we interact with these technologies both receiving and transmitting, these communications become equivalent in people's minds to "truth". This is why this moment is so terrifying. Almost every person on the planet sees what is told to them through electronic media of all kinds as truth. And far too few realize that the picture there of what is "true" is what controls us. Fucking evil evil geniuses. It's working out exactly as they want, and for those of us who try to tell people what you're pointing out here, the psychos are laughing their asses off at us. Because they have created an "IT world" in which people now believe more strongly than the actual world in which we live.

    It is so hard to be alive right now. Traditional humans, who think as our species thought up until the "IT era", are now a hunted group, hunted by the assholes who consider themselves "better" than this. They will destroy themselves trying to create their "better", not ever understanding how their ideas don't work, but they will most certainly take us out first if they are not stopped.
