Please click on the image above for the backstory on the quote in the above picture. He said it. He meant it. They implemented it and here we are.
“We just can’t Agree on anything!” -Anonymous
That statement has never been more accurate than it is right now. We, literally, can not agree on anything. Even with people we live with. Even with our closest fiends and loved ones.
Don’t believe me? Great, test my claim and prove me wrong.
Hypothesis: Each and every adult in the US has a truly unique memory and understanding of our shared history and current events.
Test: Pick any event that happened during the lifespans of yourself and your test subjects.
Write down an initial question and distribute it to as many family, friends, and acquaintances, who qualify within the age range specified in step one, as you can. Email, text, and messenger apps are great ways to ensure you have a large distribution base.
As the replies come back in, try to organize them into groups based on their replies. Make the reply schemas vague enough at first to ensure that the all replies each fit into one group or the others.
Move any reply that does not have a match with any other replies into their own group** and send the this question. “Where did you learn this information and could you please reply with why you consider that to be proof.”
Write down the next round of questions (Each group from Step 3 will need a question tailored to make sense within that group.)
Send the next round of questions.
Repeat Steps 3-6 until you reach the point where all answers are unique, where no groups can be made of 2 or more individuals in agreement.
Here is a hypothetical test using Covid as the topic. For this example, I will only follow 1 thread, but you will be able to see how to follow up for all groups.
Question 1- Where did Covid-19 come from?
Replies fall into groups of 2 or more matching replies:
1) Zoonotic spill over
2) Unintentional Lab Leak
3) Intentional lab leak
4) There is no such thing as a virusQuestion 2 How did that happen?
Repeat step 2
1) Purchased and consumed animal at Wt Market.
2) By contact at a wet market.
3) From exploring Caves
4).At an encroachment zone where humans and wild animals live in close proximityFrom what animal?
1) Bat
2) Pangolin
3) Ferrett
4) Don’t Know* (Anytime “Don’t Know” becomes a group, ask them where they got their info from and why they answered [blank] to the preceding questions even though they had no evidence to support those positions)Where can i find the proof of the animal being responsible..
Repeat Step 2
Keep digging deeper. Use the data from each group to ask deep and deeper questions until you cannot build another group from the answers. Much like the “Don’t Know” group, once an individual has replied with an answer that does not fit with anyone else’s, ask them where they got their info from.
*Singular replies with no match and Don’t knows will all go into the group described in Step 4 of the instructions.
This test may take a bit to run out all the agreements, but it shouldn’t take long to reveal something that has been blatantly out in the open for a decade, yet no one has really looked into the implications of it.
What I am suggesting here is that as we have adapted more and more to communicating, interacting and, in a very real sense, to living through our device screens, Google has monetized not just the sum total of your unique traces in the digital world but also the ability the ability to completely control your life experience. From the autocomplete word suggestions when you search to relevant videos and topics in your newsfeeds to out right 100% curation of your web search results. Google can and does paint a false picture into being reality for the user.
Seem far fetched? Well, you already know that it does this. Whichever browser and search engine you use, you have most likely enabled “Personalize Your Experience”.
Personalized search is where the engine runs your query through filters it creates using your data. Your data is the massive amount of data Google has aggregated about you, specifically you. That data includes but is not limited to-
Every one of your past searches done on any of your devices*
Every place you’ve visited online and in person with a device*
Every keystroke you’ve made on your devices*
Every word spoken within hearing range of your devices*
And everything else you’ve done on or near a device*
*This refers to any device running Android or Chrome OS as well as any device with Google software running, such as any that came from Google Workspace Apps, Google One Apps, Google Play Apps or any 3rd party app running Google scripts. Example- Firefox with https://mail.google.com open in a tab.
Personalized search is Google’s way of saying that they have taken total editorial control over your search results without explaining to you exactly how they decide what is relevant and what should be suppressed. You gave them that ability with your permissions, but do you think that refusing permission actually turns it off. The fact that they have the capability, means that they are doing it. Click the image below to see other interesting capabilities that Google has acquired and how they have treated the users’ refusal to give permission in the past.
But I disabled that!” Sorry. Telling google not to record and store your web activity does not stop it from recording and storing your activity. It just disables your ability to see what is being recorded and stored.
And please do not think that only Google does this type of thing. Every one of the major IT companies does this, too. For this article, I am referring to Google’s Fuckery Mosty Foul as a surrogate/proxy for all their Most Foul Fuckery.
So, What does this all mean? Well, what have we learned so far-
We have established that Google engages in constantly recording, compiling, and verifying of all of your digital traces, both online and offline.
We have shown that Google has personalized search which means they have the the ability to modify your search results, autofill suggestions, and ability to access any page you might wish to visit, as well as the ability to curate what news items are shown heavily, lightly, or not at all in your news feeds and search results.
We’ve all known that Google does all of this at no cost to you. They do all of this for free, just to make your life easier. Oh Snap! No they don’t.
There is an old saying that goes,
“If the services are all free, you are not the customer. You are the product.”
And that holds true here as well. Google sells your data to anyone with money and let’s them do as they wish with it. But that is only half of the functionality we have shown in this article. The aggregation of your digital data does not require the ability to alter search results and the rest. So, for what purpose would they invest so much of both the time time and government subsidized money into being capable of altering your web experience and therefor changing your worldview?
They sell that as a service as well, to: companies, rich individuals, governments.. hell, even to political parties within governments. Why would a political party want to pay Google to manipulate you? Oh yeah, to take control of everything.
I am not going to go too deep into the absolutely insane levels of manipulation Google sells, but that is because I do not have to. Please click the image below for a 15 minute video covering Ephemeral Experiences and how they are controlling you with them.
To put it bluntly, Google has the capacity to curate anyone’s worldview to the point where we lose objective reality itself. You data is unique. Why would the resulting stream of data being fed to you via your device screens not have an equally unique data set for world events and history. They have fed each of us a knowledge base that does not match up to anyone else’s, thus we can not agree on anything and therefor we will only a be divided and conquered population who lack the ability to unify due to our dissimilar beliefs in what got us here. Where contrast causes too much contradiction to see eye to eye.
That is probably enough info for the day. Please check back in the next couple days because we have barely scratched the surface of this cess poll and we are scheduled to go all the way down to the bedrock in this series.
