"Don't Go Down The Rabbit Hole" - NYTimes Decries Critical Thinking, Tells Americans To Trust Google Instead

A new article from the New York Times claims that instead of engaging with someone that challenges your worldview, you should “resist the lure of Rabbit Holes” and go to more authoritative sources such as Google and Wikipedia.

The New York Times appears to have declared war on traditional critical thinking, which they say “isn’t helping in the fight against misinformation”.

In short, the New York Times and their “expert” are telling us that instead of investigating the claims of someone that challenges the status quo and our understanding and perception of reality, we should instead avoid them and go directly to the authorities to tell us what to think.

To futureproof your job against robots and AI, you should learn how to code, brush up on your math skills and crack open an engineering textbook, right? Wrong. In this surprisingly comforting talk, tech journalist Kevin Roose makes the case that rather than trying to compete with the machines, we should instead focus on what makes us uniquely human.

What do we call this with farms... cross-pollenation... GMO drift...? Now that we're modifying human beings.

Know the signs and stages of grooming. Talk to your kids❤

Let's notice how every one of these components is present in increasingly surveillance oriented, socially restrictive environments (including your private home, if you have one). A group, individual, or platforn pretends to care for us and help us meet needs... until suddenly they are willing to hurt us in order to do what they want us to do.

If you are reading this, there is a good chance this set of steps is already being used to make you vulnerable to traffickers as well as entrapping the more vulnerable people in your life.

When all of these components are present, it is extremely easy to traffic a vulnerable person.

I am very grateful for collaborative spaces where we are interacting with one another differently and supportively, so that we can change the environmental factors that would allow any of us to be trafficked for the first time or ever again.

When we notice how we can be in relationship with one another with a litmus for trust, to build increasing trust over time in a way that is fully human and fully in service of the life energy that is all living beings... it is directly antidotal to the violence of intentional trafficking systems.

Something I and some others have been striving to verbalize together is how commercial and technological platforms have usually been instituting these components as a matter of achieving financial stability.

When a social media company inserts itself into your relationships, for instance, it requires you to communicate in certain disabled ways and make money in certain disabled ways because they must ensure their platform makes money first in order to continue in relationship with you.

But this monetizes your relationships, too.

There are consequences for extracting oneself from a "relationship" with a trafficker or a platform that is facilitating trafficking.

The consequences of trying to separate oneself from the abusiveness of social media platforms make one more vulnerable to being trafficked, very much like the consequences of trying to separate oneself from the interpersonal abusiveness of an individual bad actor.

We know that our environments don't have to include any of this abusive stuff.

Even the subtlest versions of it, we can do without them utterly!

When we make sure our environments don't include those abuse patterns, when we ensure inclusive communication and the means of healthy relationship building, traffickers are not able to move in our environments.

When we establish these safe and inclusive environments, most traffickers don't even stay traffickers.

Because most traffickers didn't want to be traffickers in the first place.

Those ones became traffickers because they were deprived of environments that would have protected them from traffickers; they were captured by a trafficking network and could then only find "safety" by intentionally trafficking others.

For many, this has been happening to them since they were babies.

When captured traffickers come into regular contact with environments that fully protect and support trafficking survivors, environments that are activated, aware, and inclusive, there are rapidly decreasing reasons for that one to continue to be a trafficker for their own survival.

As survivors of trafficking and as individuals still being victimized by networks of intentional trafficking, we need others to be fully cognizant of this in their desire to help us.

When we take this approach, it safeguards us from violence and conflict.

We immediately dismantle networks of intentional trafficking activities by focusing on actively including the components of healthy, safe, inclusive community resourcing.

A great deal of this we continue to broadcast almost every day @IntuitiveCommunity and @IntuitivePublicRadio.

Thank you for co-creating these spaces so that it could be safe for me to say so.

found this, thought it was of interest. also check out who their partners are.

they use ai learning and basically profiling to figure out how to manipulate certain groups.

Raul Diego on the Rise of Digital Currencies and Human Capital Markets

Welcome to MintCast -- an interview series featuring dissenting voices the establishment would rather silence -- I’m your host, Mnar Adley. Today we’re joined by Raul Diego, a MintPress staff writer, filmmaker and photojournalist who will discuss the anti-Chinese lockdown propaganda and how the COVID economic disaster is paving the way for surveillance, digital currency and human capital markets based on a series of articles he wrote for MintPress News. A recent letter addressed to the FBI, entitled “The Chinese Communist Party’s Global Lockdown Fraud,” has been gaining considerable traction. The letter -- signed by a number of prominent individuals, including military commanders and government advisers -- essentially suggests that China, and Xi Jinping in particular, tricked the world into pursuing authoritarian responses to the pandemic. However, the anti-Chinese lockdown narrative is obscuring a much broader effort by the financial and tech sector to create state-backed digital currency that will turn humanity into data assets. The world’s most powerful hedge funds and transnational corporations can use this data to create more profits for themselves and their clients, while rendering the poor poorer.
