AI: Decoding the Psyop [NEW (first) substack post!]
AI is powerful, and the idea that anyone could have this power is not attractive to the powers that be — it can't be allowed in our hands. AI is seen as the new weapon, and an informed populace therewith, a threat to the state. "AI Regulation" is the new gun control.
WEF, OpenAI, and others are rapidly moving to "regulate AI" by limiting access to compute capacity. As they build super-intelligent systems, they are simultaneously setting up the regulation to keep it only to themselves.
They will run realtime simulations populated by our digital twins, with perfect data on all resources from supply chain blockchain, to control their 4th industrial revolution. We will not be allowed access to any significant compute capacity. There will be no competing. There will be no innovating.
This regulation of compute power is the key that turns the lock on the technocratic prison.
So, why is there no “Freedom of Compute?” Where is the equivalent of an NRA fighting for the individual’s right to compute? We’ve never heard these concepts before, yet it is now equally important as the First and Second Amendment — where is the movement for a Bill of Rights for Compute Power?
I love humanity. I love our art, our music, our spirit, our history. I personally find downright distasteful an AI-created facsimile of truly inspired creative and intellectual work. BUT — I will defend our right to use it. This technology is here now; the bizarre but powerful genie is popping out of the bottle, and we must ensure no group claims exclusive ownership of it to control society.
The stakes are high here. If we fail, we lose forever the ability to create our own models with real history, alternative viewpoints, alternative medicine, herbalism, permaculture, decentralized solutions, and we, and the coming generations, will be doomed to accept the already disappointing, disempowering consumerist technoserf rhetoric that ChatGPT or Grok serve up, sourced from establishment-approved sources. We will live in reality dictated by Snopes and Wikipedia.

⚖️ 🇺🇸 🏛 He Who Decides the Exception: Trump Should Disregard the Supreme Court’s National Guard Ruling
⬛️ Judicial overreach mustn’t be permitted to trample the public necessity.
🔶️ The Supreme Court has again reminded the country that, in the American system, the judiciary can halt executive action with the stroke of a pen—this time keeping in place a lower-court order blocking President Trump’s attempt to federalize and deploy National Guard forces to protect besieged immigration enforcement operations in and around Chicago.
🔶️ The point was that a republic cannot outsource its highest political judgments to a tribunal without hollowing out self-government. Put those threads together—Cicero’s salus populi, Aquinas’ equity, Locke’s prerogative, Hamilton’s executive energy, Jefferson’s coordinate construction, Jackson’s independence, Lincoln’s warning—and you get a tradition that modern progressives and libertarians alike often deny ...
This is no longer a red-versus-blue spectator sport or partisan cheerleading exercise. The macro reality is brutally apolitical. The United States is functionally bankrupt, as Ron Paul has warned for decades, and the evidence is now manifesting in collapsing purchasing power. The price of acquiring real money—gold and silver—has surged roughly 200% in just two years, a silent tax that represents systemic looting via monetary debasement. We are drifting toward a sovereign debt crisis unprecedented in the entire history of fiat currency regimes. Even conservative frameworks, like Jim Rickards’ back-of-the-napkin gold revaluation tied to balance-sheet realities, imply a potential trajectory toward $27,000 per ounce. You don’t need to be a “gold bug” to recognize risk management: allocating even 10% of depreciating Federal Reserve notes into real money is simple capital preservation. It’s not about upside speculation—it’s about avoiding total annihilation if real money ...
