The Real Underlying Purpose of Artificial Intelligence

There’s a quote floating around that feels like it was whispered to a Wall Street executive by a sentient crypto shit coin: “The underlying purpose of Artificial Intelligence is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.”

To The Younger Self: External Validation In Our 20s 40s and 60s

"When you’re 20 you care what everyone thinks, when you’re 40 you stop caring what everyone thinks, and when you’re 60 you realize no one was ever thinking about you in the first place" Ouch. It's a triple-layered onion of disillusionment and is simultaneously frustrating and mostly accurate. Its sobering nature also encapsulates a profound and often humorous truth about human perception and self-awareness. It charts a journey through the anxieties of youth, the burgeoning confidence of middle age, and ultimately, a liberating realization about the relative insignificance of external validation. While presented as a simple progression through decades, it speaks to deeper psychological shifts and the evolving understanding of our place in the grand scheme of things.

The Ringwraiths of Capital: Democrats Are Half Nazgûl and Republicans Are Full Nazgûl

In struggling working class middle Earth, we have a Republican lite right of center DNC party that, even though they are more pro-democratic and speak in we hear your pain language regarding the injustices of that working class, generally doesn't want to rock the boat regarding oligarchy and truly do what's require to fix structural problems. Not to mention constantly undermine its progressive wing and be more conservative than Europe's left leaning parties. Then we have a far right wing as humanly possible wanna be fascist batshit crazy theocratic idiocracy red cult of weirdos whose goal is to destroy the American middle class through austerity and thus our democratically elected constitutional republic who will not stop until very few psychopathic oligarchic robber barons can return the country to an iron age / gilded age period where women had virtually no rights and both you and your young children have to slave work in coal mines. So you either get slightly regressive or stagnate at best, or hardcore backwards regression when in reality we need a progressive revolution beyond the likes of which we have never seen. Which we last did in the social contract that America introduced in the 1930's after the great depression, which gave new fuel to the working class.

Multiple Layers to the Christ Onion

There's a great saying that goes "If it's real, it can take the pressure." If something is challenged, and people go absolutely mental over it being challenged, then you know its foundation is shaky and the whole thing could potentially be false or fictional. The teachings attributed to Jesus Christ are not simply one-dimensional. They move across multiple layers, from simple, accessible moral lessons to profound mystical insights. Traditionally, scholars and spiritual seekers recognize a progression from exoteric (outer) teachings intended for the general population, to esoteric (inner) teachings meant for those ready for deeper gnosis. So each one of these layers gets more sophisticated, and thus is understood and appreciated by fewer and fewer people.
