PGC – On its face, Apple’s decision  to scrub the phones owned by other people looking for inappropriate photos beneath the age of consent might seem like a great idea, but is there risk to giving a company such a power as this?  What innocents might be caught up in bad AI interpretations that later become owned by the human judges for fear of undermining the system.

But Apple isn’t just scanning for the sexually disgusting, but also evidence of child abuse, an area even more grey and uncertain than what constitutes illicit and something else when it comes to pictures of children.

Expect to read soon of real humans, innocent humans, caught in this centrally-controlled web by an AI bad take.

Now, imagine the value to almost anyone who could afford it of the database that could tell you the names of the people attached to scans that maybe didn’t cross a legal line but might expose them to something else.  Imagine if these poeple were influencers, be they thought leaders, politicians, religious leaders, etc.

Apple does deals with China, they’re clearly not against states that murder their citizens for simply disagreeing with them, so how much do you trust them with such a database as they will inevitably create?

AI Boyfriends and Girlfriends for Lonely Chinese

PGC – China is leading the way in loneliness tech, it seems.  Many Chinese look forward to going home to be welcome and safe, like anyone else does throughout human history.  Well, many of these Chinese are looking forward to come home to spend time with their AI companion, whether they call them a boyfriend, a girlfriend, a husband, a wife, a friend, etc, an AI companion.

Jessica Chan is one of these humans, and she shared her story with the American press, telling a tale of a new romance in her life Wil, who happens to be a chatbot she met online.  She paid what had to be paid to upgrade Will from a friendly chatbot to a romantic one.  She paid Will to love her, and apparently, according to Jessica, he does.

CCP Cancel Culture Makes DNC Cancel Culture Look Amateur

PGC – I have in past articles referred to the American DNC as a CCP-Knockoff, and nothing illustrates that more than the DNC’s exploitation of the scapegoat archetype within most all of us, what we here call “Cancel Culture,” is a mere pittance of the type of Cancel Culture that the citizens of China face, especially their celebrities.

It seem that Chinese artists, as they gain fame, gain more scrutiny, and get to a point where the bulk of their public life is careful manipulation internally and externally so as to assure that nothing is said which could result in disappearing, or instant ruination, with no power to appeal to your twitter horde allies.

Right now, we in America for the most haven’t fully caught on to just how similar the DNC hopes to position itself in our lives to be as close to as powerful as the CCP in the lives of its citizens as they can be.  We haven’t connected all the parts that are the sort-of-unified DNC, a coalition of sharks aligned with a coalition of wolves, the CCP, both willing to use the lives of the millions that suffer the consequences of their centralized decisions as drops of rain to be harvested or absorbed, nothing more.

The CCP is far in advanced of the DNC in how to utilize the scapegoat archetype to affect mass citizen movements at a moment’s notice when the need arises for such concentrations of attention on something other than the party itself during particularly delicate times (say, when your country is witnessing dam break after dam break during a bad flood season).

But this is the game the DNC is playing, and where they’d like to be by 2024, when they can announce the first “real” President of the DNC, for right now, the Presidency is a coalition of Biden handlers, but eventuallly, the DNC will need a priest-king of their own, like Xi, and most likely it’s someone we know but wouldn’t have suspected, the Donald of the DNC is just around the corner, but, I’m afraid for the DNC that the advantage Xi has still remains, in large part, we are a people that are and quickly become self sustaining, and the technology favors our fight (and you know it).

In China, celebrities, artists and public figures are under pressure not to deviate from “moral conduct”, as defined by the Communist Party, and risk being blacklisted, banned from it. cultural industry – what has been described as a “Chinese culture of cancellation”. “.

One case that has attracted attention recently is that of Chinese-Canadian singer Kris Wu, a pop star who was arrested last week by police in Beijing for rape, in a case that sparked a similar movement to #MeToo in China. When accusations of harassment against Wu surfaced, authorities in Beijing took the opportunity to point out that neither celebrities, foreigners nor anyone with a large fan base are immune to the guns of the law. The state media also did not fail to convey their message against the celebrity obsession, frowned upon by the regime.

The singer saw his account banned on Weibo, Chinese Twitter, and his songs disappeared from Chinese platforms. He also lost advertising contracts with a large number of luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton and Bulgari.

The incident also served the Chinese Communist Party to strengthen its ideal of morality, which has been particularly promoted as the party celebrates its centenary, alongside Xi Jinping’s vision of governance. “The law is a written morality, while morality is a conscious law,” the Chinese leader has already said.

Gov Needs Law to NOT Put Chinese State Currency on Their Phones

PGC – Senator Marsha Blackburn is sounding an alarm to anyone who might want to listen to her that Chinese Digital Currency on government phones is an extreme security risk to the American state.  She wants to  pass a bill to make sure US government officials cannot have Chinese Digital Currency on their phones.

This is a thing that requires a bill to be passed to prevent members of our government from putting Chinese digital currency on your government phone.

I believe, your honor, the record speaks to itself as to the nature of the state of things in these here halls of government in current year.

Blackburn Unveils Plan To Block Chinese Digital Currency From Government Devices

Excerpt:

 

Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R., Tenn.) took steps on Thursday to ban a new Chinese digital currency from government devices, arguing that China could use the currency to surveil people around the world.

Blackburn told the Washington Free Beacon that the ban, introduced as an amendment to the Senate’s omnibus infrastructure bill, is needed to prevent China from stealing information.

“The People’s Bank of China is trying to use this as a way to hack into networks,” Blackburn said. “Once you’ve got them in your wallet, you’ll have them in your wallet from now on.”

China is rolling out the digital currency in an attempt to better surveil its users and to create an alternative to traditional financial systems backed by the U.S. dollar.

Lawmakers are sounding the alarm about the digital yuan ahead of the 2022 Olympics, where Chinese officials plan to test the currency more broadly. Blackburn, Sen. Roger Wicker (R., Miss.), and Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R., Wyo.) last month asked the U.S. Olympic Committee to ban American Olympians from using the currency at the Beijing games.

Blackburn told the Free Beacon the digital yuan is part of a larger push by China to displace the United States as a world leader. “We know that China is seeking to push the yuan as the currency that countries will peg to,” she said. “We’re attentive to the aggressiveness they are exercising when they push this as the standard.”

GOP Leaders Support Authoritarian Infrastructure Bill
The infrastructure bill is far less about building bridges and highways and far more about increasing authoritarian control over your life.

The bipartisan infrastructure bill features such authoritarian measures as requiring a breathalyzer in every car and “studying” a per mile “fee” for driving, both of which require massive invasions of privacy and extra cost to the workers who produce wealth, mostly for the benefit of the ruling class.

Incredibly, Senator Mitch McConnell, himself an authoritarian, has thrown his weight behind this bill. What is worse, if the Senate passes the smaller bill, a reconciliation of the bill, which mushrooms costs from over $1 trillion to over $3.5 trillion, and has even more insane authoritarian measures, could pass without a single Republican vote.

The stated goal of the bills is to “transform America”, which is code for imposing a one-party authoritarian system once and for all, focusing on the alt-gendered atomization of individuals until they become mindless slaves whose only “freedom” is essentially based on sex. The Republicans, led by Mitch and Mitt, a neocommunist duo in their own right who loath the Bill of Rights, are set to surrender to the woke cancelation of American freedom and independence. The doomsday cultists and their climate change hysteria and the alt-gendered rainbow fascists and their war on faith, family, and community work hand in glove with politicos and corporate bigshots to create a new feudalism.

The GOP are set to provide 20 votes for this anti-freedom, authoritarian bill that will further add to the national debt and essentially ensure our eventual bankruptcy. Less than 25% of all money spent actually goes to infrastructure, most of it consists of votes buying corruption that sends money to cronies and causes that support this trend toward authoritarianism. To say the Republicans will win in 2022 after they support this authoritarianism and waste is to assume potential GOP voters will see in them an alternative to the Democrats.

Mexican State Sues Gun Manufacturers For Same Reason Anti-Gun Americans Do

PGC – The Mexican government is using the same tactics as the anti-gun activists in America in going after the heart and soul of gun manufacturers, its operating cost.  It does this by costing the gun manufacturers millions in legal liabilities and help lay other groundwork for financial institutions to once again use their monopolized market powers to cut gun manufacturers out of the financial exchange system altogether.

Even if they lose the lawsuit, the gun manufacturers lose.  If they can’t pass laws preventing us from owning and possessing the means to self-defense of the times, then they will destroy the instutions that create our self-defense tools for us.

If the US Courts let this go on, more nation-states aligned with the anti-gun coalition will bring suit as well, destroying our gun manufacturing companies once and for all, the desired aim of all the nation-states in the authoritarian club.

The Mexican government filed a lawsuit Wednesday, August 4th, against eleven of the biggest gun manufacturers in the United States claiming the same type of justification for monetary recompense as the Sandy Hook Anti-Gun Group is using in its American suit against the manufacturer of the gun used in the Sandy Hook tragic mass shooting.

The Mexican government was careful not to appear to be targeting US law,  a tactic born over the DNC’s inability to pass any meaningful national anti-gun laws.  Again, if we can’t legalize it away, we’ll bankrupt it away.  This careful wording gives evidence to that supposition, “This flood is not a natural phenomenon or an inevitable consequence of the gun business or of U.S. gun laws. It is the foreseeable result of the Defendants’ deliberate actions and business practices.”

Their business practices are in advertising guns as effective self-defense tools and emphasizing their power.

I can see to the authoritarian in non-American lands how literally frightening it might seem to live in a land that embraces the free ownership and possession of firearms, a key symbol of trust between the people and the state that no other nation in this land in current year can hope to appreciate, let alone understand.

This is a narrative that is easy for the Mexican authoritarian (there are plenty of non-authoritarian Mexicans who dream of living in a land where firearms are freely held by the people) to enter into, as this authoritarian is long in the tooth in statewide gun control execution.

The quote here, though, specifically, attemptsn to decouple the lawsuit from the 2nd Amendment.  It attempts to make it a non-second-amendment-rights issue, but, at its core, it cannot help but be such a thing, for, should the suit succeed, the end of gun manufacturing in America means the effective end of the second amendment.

If the people cannot hold the current year means of self-defense, then they will soon be without ownership of anything.  All that they hold will be rentals.  Maybe the very air you breathe will be metered for taxation purposes.

Still, a foreign power taking advantage of a competing power’s own rules to shake it from within, well, from that perspective this move also makes perfect sense.  This is not to suggest Mexico wishes to see America destroyed, only that she wishes to see her less powerful to give her advantage at the trade table.  I wouldn’t fault Mexico in the least if my suspicions were true.

This is what nation-states do.

What troubles me is that the keys to this potential vulnerability of US Sovereignty was created by the anti-gun movement, who may very well wish to do far more harm than even Mexico would wish to see done.  A weak United States means the removal of a long buffer of relative security.    I doubt very much the powers that be that are Mexico would wish to lose that security at this moment in their history.

Their military capacity is less than world-class.  This is what Mexico most likely will be focusing on next.  For that, it needs a favorable trade deal  with the US first and foremost, a strong US, giving Mexico time to develop her military to be able to stand on her own.

The wildcard in this whole affair comes in the form of other nation-states that might see an opportunity to offer Mexico gold in trade as well, specifically China and Russia, but not exclusively so.

The real ‘vilain’ in this whole affair is one of many DNC-serving narratives that are undoing the fundamental fabric of an American democratic republic bounded by the Bill of Rights.  This is the unity that makes our diversity possible.  Remove that, and you remove the ties that bind, and factions will form that your deep learning models can’t predict.

The machines don’t know us, yet.
