HEARD IT ON THE X

        Those of us old enough to remember when most of radio wasn't complete garbage might recall that many Rock stations had the letter 'X' in their call signs. ZZ Top even had a hit song in the 80s titled Heard It On The X. Recently however the letter has been appropriated by hipster-elements on the New Right (some theorize because a swastika would be too obvious), especially because Elon Musk---one of their icons---has been throwing it around everywhere. 

       Musk bought social media platform Twitter a few years ago and promptly renamed it 'X.' He also, (because he's totally-not-a-globalist), immediately installed former NBC executive and the head of the World Economic Forum's Media Division, Linda Yaccarino, as CEO. 

       So, today, Ms. Linda announced her resignation following some rather disturbing results floating up from Musk's absolutely infallible Grok AI chatbot: the same device that his snuffies used to audit the entire Federal Government in under six months with zero mistakes; and which he recently claimed would rewrite the world's encyclopedias; and which Musk himself recommended as an excellent parenting tool. A few examples of the somewhat controversial posts leading to Ms. Linda's resignation:

      Those were two of the milder ones, but serve as examples of the overall trend. Musk (who's also totally-not-a-Nazi) was forced to delete the controversial content, and rumors are swirling that the standard Corporate boilerplate ascribing the whole sordid affair to a 'disgruntled former employee' are afoot. It seems a bit questionable too that having worked for NBC, the WEF, and Elon Musk, Linda Yaccarino would have much of an issue taking orders from Nazis.  

    Those details aside, though, this incident should really serve as an example of the dangers posed by unregulated AI, which is heavily being promoted by the Techno-Fascists who essentially run the current Administration. It should serve as a wake-up call; but then again, we are part of a Culture that is utterly subservient to authority and one in which independent thought is actively discouraged. We're talking about a society that already depends on AI for everything from the simplest tasks to solving the most profound questions on life; spurred on by a self-appointed Elite which hopes to use it to establish itself as a permanent Oligarchy. 

        Concomitant with the establishment of a Permanent Elite, the ideologues promoting Techno-Feudalism also envision the creation of a Permanent Underclass. Most Americans choose to drown themselves in drugs and denial instead of facing that fact; hence the task for the would-be Oligarchs has become significantly easier. 

       For those of who actually still value quaint ideals like inalienable Human Rights, the specter of a Technocratic Police State is a daunting one. I still hold confidence, though, that the Great Reset ultimately will fail as all previous attempts by would-be earthly gods to stamp out the human spirit have. The (latest) Grok-AI debacle is another example of the inherent weaknesses of the Ruling Elite, and their power really only depends on how long they can hold it by force and deception. This is why exposing them is important at this stage, but much depends on willingness to face what they are---and what they are doing---and not outsourcing our thinking to the very instruments they employ for our enslavement. The human mind is their greatest enemy; and is why they push alternatives.
