Two tweets on exTwitter that say a great deal about its owner: ----- Quotes from exTwitter ----- Andrew Snyder @Andrewnsnyder 19h That Hideous Strength in the 21st century: Quote Elon Musk @elonmusk Apr 2 As I mentioned several years ago, it increasingly appears that humanity is a biological bootloader for digital superintelligence ---- Kale Zelden @kalezelden Apr 2 The combination of Elon's tweet about "biological bootloading" digital superintelligence & Armstrong's "Gattaca stack" have put me in a foul mood. We're standing by as the techno-wizards are putting together That Hideous Strength right in front of our very eyes & bragging about it. They have money & the will & the libido dominandi. As Lewis notes in his ever prescient The Abolition of Man: "What we call Man's power is, in reality, a power possessed by some men which they may, or may not, allow other men to profit by." We are the material being sourced by the Magicians, or Tech Overlords. It is all the Magician's Bargain...Fausts and the disciples of Faust. ----- End quotes from exTwitter ----- And Trump is playing Uncle Andrew to Elon's Jadis. -- Stephen Hayes, Author of The Year of the Dragon Sample or purchase The Year of the Dragon: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/907935 Web site: http://www.khanya.org.za/stevesig.htm Blog: http://methodius.blogspot.com E-mail: [email protected] or if you use Gmail [email protected]
