94. I totally agree.

Nov 2024

I wrote a post more than a year ago about how I felt about the sudden, widespread appearance of the protests and what I felt was behind them. From the replies I decided not to say anything else in order not to be labeled an anti-Semitic troll.

I believe that the Black Lives Matter protests, and especially the protests in Portland had agents provocateurs who incited much of the violence and property damage. I believe that at least one was caught and exposed. I see the role of human agent provocateur being outsourced to AI in large part.
And, of course, we shouldn't forget the NSA data center in Utah which is capable of storing more than a dozen exabytes of data. It seems entirely possible that the NSA could be weaponized by an authoritarian Strong Leader. And whatever the NSA says about anyone, most people will believe, because they have all the information on everyone.
