VIDEOWhat is most striking about the 2024 Marxism Conference in Melbourne, Australia that has been going on over the Easter weekend isn't the idiotic blather from the naïve Communist attendees that we've all heard before. Instead it is the photo of the audience itself revealing absolute fealty to virtue signaling COVID masking rules that most of the rest of the world has already ditched. The only reason for their demand for absolute obedience from the Commie audience is to demonstrate Commie control which reveals that was the whole purpose of the worldwide masking and mandate rules during COVID. So you...

When they inactivated one specific region, the monkeys stopped making risky choices. No other areas had a similar effect, even areas that have been shown to play a role in monkey decision-making. The region researchers identified is part of the Brodmann area in the monkey frontal lobe, which has dozens of smaller parts that are associated with all sorts of brain activities including speech, hearing, and movement. Specifically, it was Brodmann area 6, which is involved in planning complex and coordinated movement. In people, the frontal lobe is involved in personality, planning, organizing, and goal-oriented behavior.

Kaczynski entered Harvard University as a 16-year-old on a scholarship, after skipping the sixth and 11th grades. It was there that he was subjected to an experiment run by Harvard psychologist Henry A. Murray that was backed by the Central Intelligence Agency. Though he graduated with a mathematics degree, later completing a doctorate in the field before becoming a professor, questions remain over whether — or to what extent — he was affected by the experiment, which reportedly involved mock interrogations in which participants’ beliefs were harshly disparaged. Murray’s study was widely reported to be part of a CIA program...

Two trend lines extend into the future. One tracks government's increased oppression, surveillance, and social control. The other tracks people's rising spiritual faith, desire for personal freedom, and determination that government should leave them alone. This is our reality. It also exposes the chink in totalitarianism's armor. The greater the government's coercion, the more convinced a growing share of the population becomes that illegitimate government must go.*snip*Talk of WWIII brings thoughts of troop movements, electric grid collapse, and nuclear conflagration, but unlike the wars of last century, this one is first and foremost for control of individual minds. WWI fashioned...

Intelligent AI robots are coming – and they will have the ability to perform religious ceremonies and could even turn against humans, experts have warned.As AI becomes more prominent in our day to day lives, it wasn’t going to be long before the worlds of religion and tech merged.The thought of robot Gods and ChatGPT sermons terrifies some people – and rightly so, according to experts.

"It is getting worse," David Curry, president and CEO of Open Doors, told Christian Headlines.... Chinese Communist Party Chairman Xi Jinping "knows that he cannot stamp out" the nation's Christians, Curry said. There are an estimated 96 million Christians in China, the report says. "And so he is slowly strangling Christian faith, and he's doing it with high-tech surveillance. They watch, and they track everybody in what they're doing – through facial recognition and other things. Imagine if the IRS owned every camera in every restaurant on every street in America. We would be very concerned that the IRS has...

The Biden administration has blacklisted and sanctioned dozens of Chinese government research institutes and private-sector tech firms, accusing them of weaponizing technology for use at home and abroad, the U.S. departments of Commerce and Treasury announced Thursday. In particular, the U.S. warned that these entities were working as part of a broader Chinese government strategy to develop and deploy biotechnology, including "brain-control weaponry," for possible offensive use and as part of its crackdown on Uighurs and other Muslim ethnic minorities -- a campaign that the U.S. has determined constitutes genocide. "The scientific pursuit of biotechnology and medical innovation can save...

A new book is out about the Culture War and the manipulation of the meaning of words, speech, and language by the left to undermine and subvert the nation’s culture and in the process achieve political objectives. “Speechless: Controlling Words, Controlling Minds” by Michael Knowles

A cyborg is generally defined as a human-machine interface contrivance. Several cyborgs have been registered to date, and a cyborg foundation, dedicated to recognizing and securing the rights of these human-machine chimeras has been established. While this technology has been on the drawing board for some years, what’s new and different is the rapid developments of brain-controlled devices using BCI (Brain-Computer Interface) technology. Coupling BCI with older human-enhancing devices, we are well on our way to an unexplored universe, legally and ethically speaking. This essay will review the current state of the art – a future article will explore the...

Fully implantable, wireless device enables ontogenetic research in untethered animals with dynamically programmable operation. Credit: Northwestern University First optogenetics-based study of unrestricted social interactions within groups of animals. Northwestern University researchers are building social bonds with beams of light. For the first time ever, Northwestern engineers and neurobiologists have wirelessly programmed — and then deprogrammed — mice to socially interact with one another in real time. The advancement is thanks to a first-of-its-kind ultraminiature, wireless, battery-free and fully implantable device that uses light to activate neurons. This study is the first optogenetics (a method for controlling neurons with light) paper...

ELON Musk's brain chip start-up could begin inserting technology into people's minds later this year. The implants built by California-based Neuralink will one day allow those with physical disabilities to control a computer with their thoughts. Neuralink microchip and wiring next to a human finger for scaleCredit: Neuralink The company released a video last week of a brain-chipped monkey apparently playing video games with its mind. Similar technology could make its way to human test subjects by the end of the year if the start-up meets a previous prediction from Musk. The billionaire Tesla boss tweeted in February: "Neuralink is...

With tall tales about climate change and COVID-19, leftists are relentlessly chipping away at our economy and our constitutional rights. Only three weeks into Biden world and the outrages keep piling up. George Orwell’s worst dystopian nightmare might soon pale in comparison. And for Biden, the big levers are climate change and COVID-19. Fifty years ago, it was global cooling that the left was peddling. When it became obvious that it wasn’t cooling, they had to transition to “global warming” and with help from the leftist media, they have managed to warp the views of the average American. When the...

They know better than the experts they revered just months ago. It’s nothing new for political religions to produce radicals that develop their own sects or cults. This time around, rigid devotion to enforcing mask compliance has produced runaway fanaticism based on nothing but blind faith that more mask-wearing is always better. Even the public health experts, whom these followers all promoted as great prophets just months ago, can’t tame their fervor. That’s a problem, because a return to normalcy will require subduing radical factions that agitate for oppression. Restrictions such as mask mandates are like oxygen to followers of...

In its brazen march toward totally unconstrained power over information, Facebook is now touting its "unmatched utilization of artificial intelligence to detect and eradicate harmful content and misinformation." Guy Rosen, Facebook's vice president of integrity, explained that "the average human isn't competent to judge whether information is misleading or harmful. Fortunately, the superior minds at Facebook are diligently expanding the scope of artificial intelligence—robots, if you will—that can make these distinctions for the less gifted among us." "A particularly acute problem that has intensified during this election year has been hate speech," Rosen said. "The volume alone has surpassed the...

Cicadas infected with the parasitic fungus Massospora unknowingly engage in trickery with their fellow insects, resulting in effective disease transmission, according to West Virginia University-led research. Massospora manipulates male cicadas into flicking their wings like females – a mating invitation – which tempts unsuspecting male cicadas and infects them. It’s a recent discovery into the bizarre world of cicadas plagued by a psychedelic fungus that contains chemicals including those found in hallucinogenic mushrooms. The research, “Behavioral betrayal: How select fungal parasites enlist living insects to do their bidding,” was published in the journal PLOS Pathogens. “Essentially, the cicadas are luring...

When he announced on May 1 that masks would be worn in public places, Massachusetts governor Charlie Baker was emphatic. "We view this as common sense. This is going to be basically a way of life. No ifs, no ands, no buts, no doubts." However, doubts are showing up. First, Baker's order said to wear face coverings when in public places and unable to keep a social distance of six feet. Why'd he pick six feet? There is no research showing that six feet means anything in a public space. That six-foot idea is an arbitrary guess that was "conjured...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but,...
