We need an anti tech revolution.

More specially, we need a counter cultural movement to rise up and destroy social media especially. Social media has been one of the greatest plagues on humanity, destroying our attention span, making us need instant gratification, obliterating our social skills, making us live degenerately, pacifying and distracting us and creating a plethora of mental illnesses making us the most mentally ill generation in history.

Technology and specifically social media has dulled our senses through the constant over stimulation, so we don't find beauty in the simple things anymore. It has taken away the poetry of reality from our minds. The real world has become a mere theatrical stage that modern man simply uses to perform that which he wishes to upload to what has depressingly become more real to him - the digital space.

Most important, technology and social media have dangerously and wickedly disconnected man from God - Jesus Christ in such a huge way. The generations brainwashed and consumed by social media have lost connection with the spiritual and tuned it out, making man even more oblivious to the spiritual warfare transpiring around us. Roughly 150,000 people die each day and most of them are going to Hell because they have not believed on the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet most still spend so many more mindless hours on social media than they do preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Screens are the modern idols and false gods of man that have turned man into anxious, unconscious machines walking around in a fog. Screens have lulled modern man into a trance of comfort. Modern man has been conquered by convenience.

We need to turn this ship around. We need a revolution of the mind and then a revolution against industrial society and its most prized and satanic creation - social media. We need to destroy it all and take this reality back.

Cannot agree more with you!

We are deliberately turning off the developments of human species in mind, spirit and physique. Very soon we will be as insecure about the world around us, as we were in the ages when people lived in caves.

@Domking Very eloquently said! As Nathan from the movie Ex Machina said, "One day the AIs are going to look back on us the same way we look at fossil skeletons on the plains of Africa. An upright ape living in dust with crude language and tools, all set for extinction."

you can exit society or refuse to use tech .. a lot of people are enslaved by it today and its only going to get worse

the amish refuse tech and the ultra religious don't use photos they consider it idolatry plus they think it steals your soul nowadays AI can impersonate so much it really does like steal a person's entity
TrumanTheTrueman · 36-40, M
@GoFish You bringing up the Amish is something else that can be used to bolster my points. The Amish do not have the mental illness nor most of the physical illnesses that we in industrial society struggle with.

No. We dont. We need an anti stupid revolution where people are held accountable for what they say and forced to speak only the truth.. And the law isnt perverted to protect them..
I am not against social media. But it really needs to be combined with all those on line fantasy games, where everyone gets to be a hero a wizard or a princess and no one gets harmed. But they all go home to real life at the end of it.. No harm done..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman Yes this would be an ideal application for AI, when you post something in the chat it first goes through AI lie detector checking and rejected if it is false information.
It would mean no more religious posts, and also nothing posted that Trump ever said.

I was in complete agreement, until you started mentioning Geebis

"More specially, we need a counter cultural movement to rise up and destroy social media especially." He says on a social media platform.

@Father2 I was waiting for this comment. I knew it was coming and I even thought about preemptively talking about the irony of me sharing this on social media while writing this, but what exactly is wrong with using social media against itself?

Mind you, this is a smaller platform, quite different from facebook and other social media platforms like it. I think similar worlds is a better option and alternative for those who aren't fond of social media. I mean, this site completely sucks now. It was much better back in it's early days right after experience project was over and the refugees from experience project like myself migrated here.

Technology isn't the problem, profit incentives are. This stuff is designed for addiction because that's how capitalists get more money out of it. Though it is ironic that you every the mental illnesses and then call for a return to one of the most devastating mental illnesses to ever inflict mankind.
TrumanTheTrueman · 36-40, M
@ViciDraco Biblical Christianity is the only true cure for all mental illnesses. The blood of Jesus Christ can make the vilest sinner clean.

Only Jesus Christ can transform the lowest of men. Psychology has admittedly never cured anyone and states that there is no physical cure for psychopaths, but the Lord Jesus Christ has cured the worst of the worst in society, including psychopaths.

Jeffrey Dahmer said that when he was committing the awful crimes that he did, he believed in the lie of evolution. Jeffrey rightly stated that if a person doesn't think that there's a God to be accountable to, then what's the point of trying to modify your behavior to keep it within acceptable ranges? He's exactly right. There really would be no point. If there was no God, then why shouldn't people just follow survival of the fittest and trample the weak? Social darwinism is the logical way to set up a society if Darwinian evolution was correct.

Biblical Christianity is the only thing that has the solution to everything. Praise the Lord.

Ephesians 1:7 - In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Matthew 26:28 - For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

1 John 1:7 - But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

@TrumanTheTrueman Collaboration as a social species is part of human fitness for survival. Social Darwinism is an illogical conclusion constructed by people who do not understand cause and effect. If you cannot understand the value of being a good person without an appeal to some deity, then that is a problem with you.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Right? It's annoying that everything has to be recorded and documented today. Nothing can just happen anymore and let it play out it's natural course.

Did you get that stat from ChatGPT? 🙂
We voted not to, net neutrality was not the choice of Americans. It's not compatible with US hegemony! Be the mighty ruler of all, or allow for the truth to matter! USA chooses might.

@Ambersky I know him and I have his book technological slavery. Industrial society and its future is one of the writings in the book; it's his manifesto and it's an extremely profound piece of literature.
