We should probably add the final nail in the coffin that got us booted was we were against massSurviellance applications being embedded on our phones, during #COVID. We also were highlighting how #malware was being advertised by #celebrities during #covid19 for face-to-face #communication. After that they made sure we could not use Fakebook.

I think maybe #pschopaths and other #predators are innate #mathematicians of #socialrisk and #socialcontrol.
They learn at some #developmental stage that they can #hurt or #abuse people and get away with it through #language and other modalities of #lying.
The #power excites them or comforts them somehow and so they repeat. They can’t stop because their #evil success is #addicting to them.
Or that’s been my observation.

Corporations and oligarchs with massive fortunes can hire as many junktanks (so-called thinktanks), troll farms, marketing gurus, psychologists and micro-targeters as they need to devise justifications and to demonise, demoralise, abuse and threaten people trying to sustain a habitable planet.

Climate breakdown and crop losses threaten our survival, but the ultra-rich find ever more creative ways to maintain the status quo, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Facebook, ig, and twitter don’t want to be social media. They want to be media. They don’t want people to experience a natural feed of people they follow. Instead they serve a curated dish. They control what we see. They are clearly pulling back from the social aspect and becoming merely big media. It’s important to be very aware of this. Everyone’s addicted to scrolling and do they’ve got this massive power over what people see. #meta #socialcontrol #speech #peoplepower #twitter

One of the many reasons that I am atheist is that religion is often used as an arm of government in war. In Ukraine war, the Russian Orthodox Church is both a propaganda and mercenary arm of the government.

Inflation Is About Class Struggle — it’s a question of who gets what in society, and how much power workers have versus bosses & shareholders

How do we know that the system of #SocialControl on drug use in America is broken?

Religion is about #Tribalism and #SocialControl.
Morality is a social construct. Ideally if the church (read cult) rules are followed the members will live in a group supported harmony. That has plenty of problems but the larger bad stuff happens when churches war for control of humanity.
But atheist states can be guilty in two similar ways: 1) corruption, 2) expansionism. Atheist states don’t have predatory clergy, they still have predators.

"Wrestling with Social and Behavioral Genomics"
Social and behavioral genomics research uses huge sets of genetic data in attempts to shed light on phenotypes from smoking and eating behaviors, to psychiatric disorders, to sexuality and educational attainment. How should we think about the risks and benefits of such research?

Thank you for getting the proposal 😀
Indeed my target is to inspire colleagues into using a set of non-tech protocols for changing their work. From their #tech #workCulture they focus on getting things done. They cannot refrain.
Would you suggest other wording for my pouf prez attached?

Remember: Periodic violence against a community (even against individuals from a community) has the effect of containing, constraining, repressing that community even thousands of miles away. Even when “rare”, the effect is to instill fear and force constant self-policing to ensure one’s own safety.
