      I almost got banned from flying back to.america via brussels. I had 4 stars on my ticket, 5 would have banned me from flying. When the police came to check my bags again, i asked them why the 4 stars they beat around the bush. So i volunteered" is it because of all the negative stuff i post about the american govt on facebook?" You should have seen the look on their faces :)

    I have an uncle who works for the FBI. Years ago, my parents were watching a movie with him. It had something to do with military tech and my dad joke about how realistic do they think it was. My uncle just looked at him and said that, any movie that involves the US military and showcases some kind of new weapon or tech, that had likely already been around/used by the military for the years before the movie was made. I think about that a lot.

      Yep this, I just watched a young business owner pitch her new product and it was the scariest thing I ever seen. They have AI software she was pitching to big business that reads their employees minds and can report back to management if they are focused and thinking about work or not. Her example was if an employee was fantasizing about a coworker that HR could email them and let them know that they need to get back on task and that what they were thinking about was not appropriate, of course it was a male thinking of an attractive female. Which is completely normal thing to do. This isn't the future, this is right now. They already have tools to read our thoughts and if we are focused at work. This is by far the scariest thing I have seen so far. Our thoughts will no longer be private. RIP, bring on the nukes.

    The Chinese "Social Credit Score" is just a copy of the America Fisco score, but with a twist. It doesn't matter how high your score is you would still be treated unfairly. For example the Social Credit score help Chinese people with the highest score to get a shorter waiting list for medical care, but you can just bypass the whole system if you have ties to the Chinese Communist Party. It turns out that the Social Credit score is a useless system that if you try to be a good citizen by reporting corruption in your local government "police station, mayors, province leader" to Beijing you would ultimately lose credit score because those corrupt officials have ties to the CCP. There is no point in having this system when corruption is everywhere in China from the highest to the lowest.

    Can’t say I agree with the whole ‘ai voice to help with grief’ thing. I think modern society has made a bad habit of holding onto the past too much as is, the day we’re able to truly re-manifest the past inside the present is the day aspirations for the future disappear. This human tendency to want to pause the natural cycle of life is having unforeseen consequences on our development as a species, and in a way which will I think weaken us in the end. Life is not meant to be spent living inside memories that resemble shadows more than reality.

      I've watched his videos, but I watched Ziet Guist 12 years ago too. There's a lot of sht going on, just putting the phone down leads to still being surrounded by people craned over and out of touch. If I do try to talk to a person, they respond like a troll on the Internet, completely out of touch with reality. For example "um I'm a minotaur, I'd appreciate it if you addressed me correctly. Thanx🤚!" Or "Did you just assume my gender!?!". Plus one day there will be reprimands of not complying. Such as getting scided, just dying mysteriously or worse disappearing. What do you really think will happen if you disappear, that someone will create enough ruckus to get the news to care? No, they will get distracted and you will be considered ded. Meanwhile you're in a room off the grid with people who want to "study" the human body, like, how long can a person survive without air? What does it do to the nervous system to operate with a fully conscious person without anesthesia? Or to boil them fully conscious without anesthesia? This may sound extreme, yet it already has happened and most likely never stopped, the media can say whatever they want to you. So either you comply or you run. People are still not seeing the whole picture anyway.

Also some great points could be that war was once portraited as a game, but Jonas was the only one who understood what was the "true meaning" of the game. Hope you read this and give it a chance.

    Contrary to what some like to think, Black Mirror is and always has been a WARNING about the dystopian future we were all passively sleep walking into.. unlike predictive-programming it was always focused on dissecting these contemporary technologies and ideas from an ethical and philosophical perspective, trying to open our eyes to these very new, very real existential threats we would soon be faced with. It truly helped to open my own eyes to the dangers of tech, and steered me in a good direction, among many others, away from tech dependence and towards moment to moment, holistic living. It also opened my eyes to the scientific field of Futurism (real life Black Mirror), of which I have tried to use to warn others to no avail... most people are so intoxicated and hypnotised by their devices that they would rather not know about our impending doom if left unabated. Most people, I've noticed, are too afraid to even have the conversation, better yet consider some concrete changes. Hence why I will be heading for the mountains with other likeminded souls sooner rather than later, this dystopian future will not be my future, I will return to nature where we all truly belong...

      The director himself has said Black Mirror is not a warning against technology or about a prediction on the future, but about people today and uses people's relationship to technology to highlight human flaws. It's called Black Mirror, because if you turn off your device, it becomes a black screen (mirror) where you can view your own reflection. The show is about you, not the tech. Technology isn't scary, humans are.
      The lack of media literacy in this video and the people in the comments is one example of flaws with humans, they assume things are true without fact checking because it confirms their bias, and then they spread misinformation. Thus, social media isn't the source for misinformation, but rather humans tendency to jump to conclusions and social media can amplify it. It's an important distinction to make, because it lets us realize the solution lies with us. Humanity is the problem. We have fundamental flaws in our biology and some socially contructed, so it's important to study them rather than condemn the technology.
      This common misconception is also the reason why the Director has started making episodes where technology is almost absent, like in Season 6.
      I still can't believe it's 2023, and I have have to explain this. Then again, it's humans we're talking about.
