The internet has always been a time wasting and original-thought-prevention machine. Silly content keeps you from thinking per se. If you consume too much it can make a person feel like having some form of ADHD, mild schizo-type brain-mush or another neurodivergent problem. Thanks to the internet you can get through an entire day without ever thinking properly in your free time. Not even in the bathroom or on a train or bus or car ride. Because late night content ruins your sleep any real thought the next day feels like hard work.
Ideological content exists for you to simply copy in your head and, at best, fill in some pre-defined blanks so you falsely believe that you have had your own thoughts and conclusions. Young children copy what they see and hear without the ability to think systematically. Now adults have the same problem. We used to think the internet was just dangerous for kids but then hordes of adults fell victim to radical content and screwed up their lives.
If it’s not on the internet it’s not on people’s minds.
Search engines are useless. AI-chatbots manipulate and are mental crutches. You never hear anyone say anything original. It’s always copied from TV or the internet. Almost everyone picks one of the same 5 baseline controlled ideological main categories: Left, right, “middle/enlightenment”, libertarian or traditional conspiracy lore.
All of these ideologies are horrendously outdated, primitive, a prison for your mind and a marketing funnel for powerful groups that want to extract your resources. Before modern science made superpowers possible, old empires were running on the same single ideology: The ruling group was blessed by the gods, what they say goes, and if you don’t surrender all the resources they want you will be imprisoned, tortured and maybe killed. This very old structure remained intact under communism which means that ideology is a complete scam. It is literally an ancient totalitarian dictatorship with some repackaging. Instead of a classic mandatory religion they made marxist-leninist ramblings the mandatory religion.
Democracy in the “enlightenment” tradition simply means that a powerful network runs all major parties and corporations as front groups through baseline intelligence methods. Not a single country on earth could afford to give up the old foundations of an empire. So it’s a scam.
“Rightwing” in modern history usually meant a return to monarchist/aristocratic/Roman structures. So more of the same where 90% of people have nothing, 9% have something substantial but are completely under control and 1% has a lot while even within that 1% a fraction has the most. If you end up in another serfdom system, then you’ve been had. You were marketing-funneled into this with slogans about “family values”, “traditions”
Libertarianism never became a real comprehensive science of freedom. It simply repeats that having freedom is awesome. Trade and corporations can create cool goods based on availability and demand. Taxes are bad because governments waste money and always demand more. In its most radical form, libertarianism demands that everything is for sale, even the police and the justice system. Ironically, even libertarianism itself as a movement could be bought and was indeed bought by some extremely wealthy robber barons who are intermarried with the people who run the government. Russian intelligence also bought a portion of the libertarian movement for various reasons. So in its current form the movement is a scam that will lead you nowhere.
Conspiracy lore is a scam that was heavily cultivated by aristocratic intelligence of Welfs, Wettins and Reginars as part of the British Empire. The main purpose was to create chaos in other countries and offer the Welfs, Wettins and Reginars as partners against this fake jewish conspiracy.
And that is the entirety of the political/ideological content on the internet. It’s always one of those controlled categories (and their sub-categories). No matter which one you pick the networks in power will continue to extract your resources.
One more generation and barely anybody will be alive who still knows how to properly think and who regularly reads quality non-fiction books with a critical distance to them. Most people understand that they are being exploited, yet when they try to rebel they fail at the very first stage of understanding the system and what to do about it, because all they know is manipulated ideological thinking. At best you can connect to people from the same ideological movement, which is a fraction of the population, and then you have to deal with competing factions within this ideological group who all have copied somewhat different thoughts. It’s a game you can’t win.
Before the democracy/enlightenment scam, you were not allowed to have and share original thoughts. Worldly surveillance and government control would catch you sooner or later if you shared original thoughts. Religious scare tactics were designed to make you avoid original thoughts. Now with the democracy scam you are allowed to pick one of the 5 controlled ideological categories and copy their ideas verbatim. If you have original ideas you simply can’t reach larger numbers of people because you are not seen within the ocean of controlled content.
Real thought is not officially outlawed but the effect of content is the same as a ban.
