Many thanks to Paul Hellier of Fair Food Forager, for having me back on his podcast. In a wide-ranging discussion, we got into:
- the general lack of interest in the Manchester Arena incident, despite its immense political signifiance;
- why most people seem to be unaware of, or disinterested in, the means by which it is being herded towards tyranny;
- how the Omniwar remains invisible;
- the three camps of awareness and algorithmic kettling;
- the false binaries that keep people trapped in Camp 2;
- the illusion of Trump as a saviour figure, as exposed by his first few months of his second term in office and the technocratic takeover of the United States;
- GovCorp/GovTech and the AI-powered digital state;
- mechanisms of deception used to trick the population into supporting measures that lead to its subjugation and ultimate enslavement;
- the two-party delusion;
- rising wealth inequalities globally;
- an all-digital financial system as a totalitarian control system;
- Aman Jabbi and the digitial surveillance system maturing all around us;

- the global class war being waged via the transnational deep state;
- the failure of the political class to serve and protect the public;
- Echoes of the Third Reich;

- financial pressures on UK universities and their consequences for knowledge production;
- the outsourcing of thinking to AI, even though AI lies;

- agentic AI and outsourcing responsibility;
- cognitive warfare and its threat to liberal democracy;
- a society of “smart” phone addicts — “soft” addiction is now turning hard;
- transhumanist as a eugenics discourse; and
- the military dimension to intracorporeal nanotechnologies and human bodies as nodes on a technocratic control grid.
- network-centric warfare and human bodies as nodes on a network;
- AI and a society of maximum efficiency vs. a free society;
- the IBM and the Holocaust, Operation Phoenix, the information liquidation model, and social media;
- Palantir, the CIA, and the privatization of Total Information Awareness;

- information warfare driving people from one online pen to the next (social media as a social containment mechanism);
- using digital technologies (including digital currencies) to “switch people off”;
- meta glasses and the complete erosion of privacy;
- the battle for the brain — how advanced are the relevant technologies?;
- neurological control one person at a time?;
- Neuralink — a psy-op?;
- the removal of ethical frameworks in times of war and experimenting on entire populations;
- from “no pixie dust” to real technologies, no longer sci-fi;
- NASA’s “IT/Bio/Nano era”;
- the critical inflection point that is being reached as digital currencies, AI.gov, the digital state, etc. are all being rolled out;
- why I do not see parallel societies as a durable solution;
- the importance of mass non-compliance;
- a century of propaganda and psy-ops to impede the development of class consciousness;
