THESE ARE YOUR REAL ENEMIES
Treating them as "harmless" is endangering your entire species.
In no particular order:
GOOGLE:
- Google Search disempowers you by disinforming you; their lies are lies of omission. Through covert censorship, they enforce conformity of worldview and silence intellectual minorities.
- Their subsidiary, Boston Dynamics, is building the robotic enforcers of totalitarianism.
FACEBOOK:
- It's not a social network; it's a surveillance and intelligence-gathering platform passing itself off as a social network. They've enabled the largest and most detailed investigations of human interaction and susceptibility to psychological manipulation ever.
- Like Google, Facebook enforces conformity of worldview through covert censorship -- not only of the information we receive, but of our communications with each other.
MICROSOFT:
- Microsoft enforces computer illiteracy through their software and interface design, aided by their monopolistic market share. Everything about the Windows operating system is deliberately designed to hide from the user the way computers actually work, what they're actually doing. They also promote mental laziness by automating everything possible by default; ease-of-use always carries the penalty of removal of choice.
- Microsoft ennables violation of their users' privacy by including backdoors in its software at the deepest level, through which government agencies and corporations can and do enter.
- The inseparable Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation directly contributes to world depopulation. Bill Gates relishes this evil activity so much that he has at times traveled overseas to personally inject "third world" children with debilitating, tainted vaccines.
GOVERNMENT:
- Government is simply the immoral notion of one individual controlling another's behavior, amplified.
RELIGION:
- Religion advocates the same coercive violence as government, but is even more powerful because instead of advocating it through what looks like reason, it does so through irrational emotional nonsense (the concept of "sin"), which is harder to counter as it has no rules (logic) by which to do so.
EMOTIONAL IMMATURITY:
- Life hurts sometimes. Acceptance of that fact is the definition of emotional maturity, yet society and culture encourage us to indulge the false hope of a pain-free existence. They promote the unfeasible idea that "if you can just ___, you'll live happily ever after."
MENTAL LAZINESS:
- This most noticeably manifests as clinging to rules and laws -- inevitably, just for their own sake, rather than for the solving of any problem they were created to solve. By adhering to predetermined rules, we seek to avoid the constant effort of paying attention to the present situation and figuring out what the truly appropriate response is.
RELATIVISM/"PERSONAL TRUTH":
- This is just the human ego's selfish desire to get what it wants when it wants it, regardless of the consequences or whom it hurts. Denial of objective reality, assertion that all "truth" is subjective to the individual, leaves one with no certainties upon which to base a value system. In a valueless system, ANY action can be excused and every action is therefore permissible. For instance, the pedophile's "personal truth" is that premature sexualization DOESN'T destroy a child's psyche and therefore entire life -- let's not engage in the same flawed and destructive kind of thinking. ♥
