Space X Starlink

Everyone online I see is soo excited for Starlink, they want to "stick it to the major ISPs" etc. All anyone ever talks about are the positives like soo many other potentially dangerous technologies, such as internet coverage in the middle of nowhere.

But for those bruhs who are aware of what's happening to the US technologically, who are witnessing the ever tightening noose of tech in the hands of unaccountable private companies and govt alike this chit is alarming.

At this point its pretty damn clear the elites want a technocracy to enslave and control us all, similar to China but 100x more all encompassing and robust. If you dont know this, or dont believe it, please do some more research. Its staring us in the face right now.

What do you need to enslave a populace with technology? Full connectivity with low latency at all times, in all places.

What does Starlink claim to be working towards? Full saturation of internet connectivity across the entire globe...

Seems like a lot of people are starting to realize how evil the elite billionaire class is, they've really dropped the mask in recent years. Its one big club and if you dont play ball you'll never be allowed to stay in it.

Why do soo many people seem to think Elon is this altruistic good guy? Is it because of his promises? Is it because hes autistic af and quirky?

I dont understand, soo many think he'll be the one elite powerful billionaire to not let his empire and tech be used for bad intentions.

I think Starlink is a key component of what the elites have in store for us very very srs.

Yeah, I have posted a couple of times that Starlink will make digital currency an actually functional mode for transactions.

I changed car insurance companies this week. Part of the sign up was the "option" for their safe driver discount, which I didn't sign up for. Got an email yesterday that I still needed to "complete" my enrollment. The one thing I didn't do was agree to have the insurer monitor all of my driving. Not planning to either.

IDK if you caught an earlier convo I had with wincel, but he says that he is all for the coming corporate totalitarian government.

It isn't the most straight forward issue to parse. Ideally we want the most competent people to enact the best solutions. And I have no problem with those who are gifted and driven to create new technology (or even new markets) making a fair profit.

OTOH I'm not okay with monopolies, cartels, cronyism, and corruption. When wealth and power becomes overly concentrated in too few hands without an effective counterbalance historically most of us are screwed.

And it isn't even like what is happening is being hidden and done secretly. Most of it is out there if you just pay attention.

I figured out around age 30 that we were headed to extremes (serfdom, more or less) and that probably my best move would be to find employment with someone on top.

I don't actually believe that the "elite" are inherently any better or worse people. They just have so much more power their prejudices and mistakes can legitimately wreck the world.

I've actually only made it about a half hour in to this interview, but Snowden was doing a good job of outlining what the US government has been up to. If you are like me you may find yourself thinking "yeah, I know that, heard that, read that" etc., but having information and communicating that information to other people so that they can understand it also isn't quite the same thing.

My prediction is that Musk disappears in another decade.

I don't believe that he will follow through on ANYTHING he is saying he will do.

In my opinion, his business is an investment hustle for things that aren't real.

On another note, I believe what you're saying about technology being used to manipulate people is sort of true.

Obviously, I could learn how to make some kind of website and it turns into the next Amazon, by accident, and there's no sinister intention.

However, ********, from the beginning was the internet covert slave factory, where people sign up to make content that can be sold and they do it for free. That's because they think ******** is free.

The idea that free speech doesn't apply to businesses is perfect for ******** and twitter to be used as marketing and political tools. However, there are many things on the internet that are not being used for sinister motives and it's just logical to conclude that.

There is weirdness going on though that's subtler than that.

For instance, the Mandala Effect, is some kind of manipulation.

As a simple example, the Fruit of the Loom brand did have a cornucopia logo. I remember it and so do many. No one would know what a cornucopia is but for that logo. However, there's all this nonsense about an alternate universe and other bullsh!t, the company says they never used that logo, and it simply is not true.

People have found old clothes with it on.

When corona started the CDC was saying it's a three day mild cold, people might think it's allergies, no one but extremely sick people die from it. Later, I went back to link this for people on ********, and it was gone.

I grew up with the idea that blue is for boys and pink is for girls. That's based on the Celtic idea that blue is a magic protection color. However, a few years ago ALL TRACES OF THAT were deleted and now it says Pink is for boys and Blue for girls. I noticed that all of the article saying this were published around the same time.

If you want to find how blue was used for protection, you have to read about ancient Picts and so forth. All explanation about blue being a boys color is GONE last I looked.

The manipulation of humans via tech isn't something big, it's DELETING and changing things. That was the job of the main character in 1984 but with new papers and stuff. That takes artists and whatnot while on the internet, you can literally delete facts.

The Mandala Effect is an example that something is going on with trying to change reality. Saying it's the result of "another universe" is the psychopathic gaslighting tactic.

I was curious and looked into Starlink a little bit a few weeks ago. Basically it costs 2.5x the price of my Verizon FiOS and would give me half the speed. Nothx jeff

I used to work for a major auto insurance company that you've definitely heard of around the time they were introducing this feature. They advertised the 10% discount customers could get for driving safely, but totally avoided mentioning the fact that if you installed the monitor and drove unsafely (speeding, hard braking, etc), your insurance costs would actually goupby up to 30%.

Fuk that, for multiple reasons.
And relief washes over me in an awesome wave

.
The cost is irrelevant, the govt will gladly pick up the tab to be able to track every man woman and child on earth to within +\-10 ft accuracy.

That is some seriously, seriously scary dystopian chit.

This thread was more asking how do more people not see this dangerous side to it all? Feel like everyone is sleep walking towards a cliff sometimes.

It's because people feel like since they're okay NOW they will always be okay.

I get into that mode a little bit. So, the government is hunting terrorists and reading everyone's email, well go ahead! I'm not doing one single illegal things and I'm not writing weird emails. I don't want Alexa but if I had one, you would hear positive conversations all day at my house. So, I don't really care.

However, if we ever had to have a revolution, I don't know if I would be positive and suddenly it would matter. But, in the US that doesn't seem likely so many people don't care if they're tracked because they aren't going anywhere interesting.

Comfort is a huge issue in this situation.

So you are scared of full internet saturation? We already have that. It's called the internet.

Fully agree. Elon gets a pass because people seem to be deluded and thinks he’s an altruistic good guy, sheep the lot of them imo.
