Alright, welcome to Bright Tea on Broadcast News for Wednesday, February 14th.
Happy Valentine's Day, 2024.
Mike Adams here, thank you for joining me today.
Breaking news, the House, the Congressional House, has impeached Alejandro Mayorkas in an historic vote.
This is the first time that a cabinet member has been impeached since, I believe, 1870.
But in a vote along party lines, he was impeached 214 to 213 for, well, his acts of treason, leaving the border wide open, actually being part of funding and organizing the invasion infrastructure of America.
But Mayorkas was impeached today.
He is a clear and present danger to every citizen in the United States of America.
And impeachment is not enough.
Mayorkas, in my opinion, should be indicted.
He should be indicted and charged with treason.
Instead, he was impeached for, quote, willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law and breach of public trust.
Now, isn't it interesting that there wasn't a single Democrat that voted to impeach him?
Not a single one.
Which probably means that all the Democrats in the House should also be indicted for being complicit in this conspiracy to invade and overrun the United States of America.
You know, it's incredible.
How can...
I mean, the Democrat Party is a party of treason.
There's almost nobody in the Democrat Party, nobody that I can think of, I mean, not current and active.
I mean, there were some good Democrats in the past.
But nobody active in the House that I can think of that gives a damn about America.
They want America to be overrun and destroyed, and that's exactly what's happening.
Anyway, the Republicans have voted to impeach him, and Representative Dan Bishop, a Republican, said, quote, Secretary Mayorkas is a danger to every American.
Yes, exactly.
And then it turns out that from Tom Fitton at Judicial Watch, they were able to get a hold of the documents via a FOIA request that showed that it was Mallorcas that personally rejected Secret Service protection for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., So, you know, they're trying to put RFK Jr.
in danger, hoping he'll be attacked or harmed or assassinated or injured or something.
And that was Mallorcas that did that.
I mean, look, Mallorcas and the Biden administration, they are just straight up treasonous Criminals against America.
They should all be indicted.
They should all be arrested.
They should all face the courts for their crimes against America.
Mayorkas is one of the worst.
And, you know, impeachment doesn't go far enough, in my opinion.
But then again, who else in Congress has the power to do anything against Mayorkas?
I mean, I guess the best way to deal with Mayorkas is to vote for Trump.
Get Trump elected, get Trump into the White House, and then call for Trump to, well, initiate criminal investigations against all the treasonous actors that allowed America to be completely overrun knowingly with tens of millions of illegals, because that's what's happening.
Right now, I mean, just in, I think, December, it was over a quarter of a million, or maybe that was January.
Sometimes it's up to 300,000 a month that are coming into the United States.
300,000 a month.
I mean, think about it.
That's approaching a million per quarter.
It's not quite there.
So you could say in one year, anywhere from, let's say, three to four million illegals come into the United States.
And that's exactly what the Democrats want.
And every American voting for a Democrat is voting on part of a suicide pact.
They're voting for their country to be completely overrun.
And that's exactly what they're getting.
Now, in other news that just shows you the incredible arrogance and stupidity of the U.S. Empire.
Oh, and by the way, I have a really great special report coming up for you today entitled, What Will Future Historians Say Led the U.S. Empire to Its Final Destruction?
That's coming up in a few minutes.
And also I have a feature interview for you today with Farsim, the founder of Holospace.
That's H-O-L-O or Holospace.
And we talk about artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and the technocrats and how they are trying to enslave humanity and what we can do to avoid that enslavement and to enhance freedom, to protect our freedom and liberty and build societies rooted on freedom to protect our freedom and liberty and build societies rooted on That's a really fascinating interview.
Farsim was in studio.
He was in town in Austin for the Electronic Freedom Foundation event.
I was invited to go to that, by the way, but I'm just – I could not.
Although I would have enjoyed it, but I'm running too many things, including an AI language model project right now, which we talk about during the interview.
But you'll definitely want to stay tuned for that interview with Farsim.
But here's some other news from Al Jazeera.
U.S. seizes plane.
This is a Boeing 737, a plane that Iran sold to Venezuela.
So, what?
The US claims that Iran violated sanctions when it sold the jumbo jet to Venezuela, so the US stole it from Venezuela.
I mean, how insane is this?
This is like air piracy here.
The US government is stealing jumbo jets now, just saying, well, according to our sanctions, Iran can't sell airplanes to Venezuela.
Right?
So we're just going to steal the plane.
I mean, wow.
Well, gosh, Iran didn't agree to the sanctions.
Venezuela didn't agree to the sanctions.
Are you saying that two other countries out there, Iran and Venezuela, can't engage in an exchange to sell airplanes to each other?
Or what about cars?
What about trucks?
What about boats?
Oh, the U.S. says, well, according to our sanctions manual, you're not allowed to do that.
So we're just going to steal a plane.
The U.S. did this to oil tankers, too.
By the way, in the Mediterranean, they were stealing oil tankers.
This was like a year ago.
I forgot the exact date.
Because they claimed that it was Russian oil on the oil tanker.
So they would just steal the tanker.
And in fact, it wasn't long ago that I think it's Iran- But that may not be accurate.
I think I see it on that stole a tanker back from the U.S. somewhere near the Red Sea.
Or maybe it was a strain of horror movies.
I have to check the story.
But they stole it back from the U.S. after the U.S. had originally stolen it in the first place.
So did you know that if you're an American, did you know your government runs around the world stealing planes and ships?
Did you know that?
And they justify it by claiming it's sanctions.
Well, okay, so you just wrote down, you just made up a bunch of sanctions, put them on paper, and you think that gives you the right to steal?
What if everybody in society functioned like that?
Well, I sanctioned my neighbor, and I decided, I wrote down that my neighbor can't own a car, and thus I'm taking their car.
In fact, I'm taking their house.
I've sanctioned their house.
I'm taking their house and their car and their dog.
Sanctions, you know, it's complete insanity.
And the West calls itself the rules-based order?
What rules?
There's no rules, it's just whatever they make up.
Sanctions.
Son of a week and steal your airplanes.
It's just, ah, the arrogance is unreal.
And by the way, this is only accelerating the move away from the U.S. dollar.
Because what countries want to use the dollar when the dollar can be weaponized against them through sanctions?
And there was also...
I wish I had a story on this, but there was a spokeswoman from Russia.
Let me see if I can find this on maybe RT or something.
A spokeswoman warned the West not to steal the $300 billion of Russian assets that are currently being held in Western central banks.
Because the West is desperate to get their hands on those $300 billion.
I mean, they've frozen it, but they haven't really stolen it outright yet.
They've denied Russia the use of those funds.
Russia can't take its own money out of the Western banks.
But the West hasn't yet totally looted that money, but they're trying to.
The European officials are really desperate to loot this $300 billion.
And what do they want to do with it?
Well, they want to put it in their own pockets, of course.
I mean, what did you think?
It's just like, this is a straight-up highway robbery, just straight-up Western piracy.
Let's steal their boats.
Let's steal their planes.
Let's just loot their bank accounts, and we'll call ourselves the rules-based order.
I mean, it's completely insane.
By the way, do you think they're not going to loot your bank account one day here soon?
Yeah, come on.
They're stealing hundreds of billions of dollars from Russia, or they're planning on it.
You think they're not going to steal your hundred grand or whatever you have in the bank?
Yeah, of course they are.
They're going to steal everything from everybody.
They're just a bunch of thieves running...
Western Europe and running the United States and running Canada.
These are crooks, thieves, cartels, traitors.
They're political cartels.
They're going to loot everything.
But a spokeswoman from Russia, I don't have her title or name, I apologize, but she issued a warning and said, look, this is going to be bad.
Let's see, I have a story about...
A woman from the IMF. Let's cover this.
This is as close as I can find.
So the headline here from RT is that IMF issues warning about confiscating frozen Russian assets.
From the story, any steps towards seizing Russia's frozen reserves should be backed by, quote, sufficient legal support, warned the IMF First Deputy Managing Director Gita Gopinath.
Gita Gopinath.
Sounds like a comic book villain or something.
Okay.
Gita Gopinath has warned in an interview with Foreign Policy Magazine published on Monday, but I'm not trying to mock her beliefs or opinions.
It's just a really dynamic name, you know, and I have a vivid imagination about words.
So that's just a funny name, Gita.
Anyway, she's probably saying something that's quite correct here, which is like, hey, you Western countries that want to get your greedy little hands on all this money, you better think twice.
From the story, the U.S. and EU have blocked an estimated $300 billion in assets belonging to the Russian Central Bank.
Okay, earlier this week, the European Council took a step towards the potential seizure of the interest income, which is $4.4 billion in interest that has accumulated on the funds.
So the European bureaucrats say, we want the billions in interest, you know, just as an appetizer.
Later, the U.S. State Department revealed that Washington continues to be, quote, in active conversations, including the G7, on potential ways to seize the Russian assets.
The decision of what to do with Russia's frozen assets rests solely with the countries that are holding these assets and the negotiations.
Among them said Gopinath, and she said that IMF analysts would evaluate the impact of any decisions on the fund's members and on the global economy if that happens.
So essentially, understand what this is.
If the West says it's going to loot this $300 billion and steal it from Russia, it will be – I mean even Putin said in the Tucker Carlson interview, Putin said that he can't use profanity, but it would be an incredibly stupid decision.
Yeah, it would be bat bleep crazy for the West to do that.
Because every nation in the world would say, dump all the dollars, man.
Get rid of all dollars now.
Because nothing's safe.
If the West wants to seize it, they'll just steal it from you.
Just like they're stealing the jumbo jets and stealing the ships.
They're just going to steal everybody's bank accounts.
I mean, really, it's like a highway robbery gang on a planetary scale here.
It's like being carjacked, but your entire country being carjacked or bankjacked or whatever term you want to use.
This would be absolute suicide for the West.
And probably the West is going to do this because they are suicidal lunatics, incompetent morons, and, you know, arrogant.
Just dumb as rock woke morons who are running the Western countries.
They will probably steal this $300 billion and think, you know, we got him.
We got Putin this time.
We took his $300 billion.
And then, you know, a year later, they're going to be sitting there wondering, well, how come nobody wants our dollars?
How come nobody's using our Western banks?
What happened?
You know?
Yeah, basically you just broke the whole compact with the world.
You just announced to the world, don't use dollars and don't use Western banks unless you just want to lose all your money.
That's what you just announced.
I mean, it's like if you took your money and deposited it in a bank, and then one day that bank just says, hey, we're just going to loot everybody's deposits and take it for ourselves.
Right?
Would you deposit more money in the bank?
And when word spread about that bank, would your friends deposit more money in the bank?
Or would they say, get out of the bank?
Get everything out.
Everybody would boycott that bank.
That bank would do no more business.
That's what's going to happen to the West.
Because again, the West, which is like the UK and Germany and the United States and Canada and Australia, the West is run by suicide mission morons who don't understand anything about honesty, economics, geopolitics, currency, finance, money printing, anything. currency, finance, money printing, anything.
They just think they can run around the world and point guns at people and drop bombs on people and steal everything they want to steal, including $300 billion from Russia.
How do you think Russia's going to respond to that, by the way?
Maybe Russia responds by saying, for every billion dollars you stole, we're going to launch one nuke.
You know, a billion dollars per nuclear missile.
Yeah, that might be the equation.
So maybe Russia launches 300 nuclear weapons at the West and says, okay, you stole our money, now deal with the consequences.
I mean, we hope that doesn't happen.
But at some point, Russia is going to be sitting there thinking, well, you know what?
We can't even exist on this planet alongside these suicide cult lunatic moron Western countries that just – they won't even engage in trade.
They just loot and steal everything and they commit economic sanctions.
They shut down the SWIFT system.
They weaponize their currency.
They provide bombs to Israel to drop on Palestinians and Gaza.
And they just bomb the crap out of Syria and Iraq and Yemen.
Just any time they want, they just start bombing everybody.
Well, you know what?
Russia is going to look at that and say, yeah, we've kind of decided that we're not going to try to coexist with these Western nations.
We're just going to eliminate them.
And we think we'll take our chances with that because it's better than trying to live with these suicide lunatic morons.
So maybe they launch 300 nuclear missiles.
And then what happens?
You know?
Well, I can tell you what happens.
The incompetent, woke-tard military is not ready to retaliate, just sits there and absorbs 300 nuclear missile strikes, and then, boom, that's it for the West.
That's it for Washington D.C. Giant smoking crater that was once New York City.
Yeah, seriously.
Because the U.S. military has lost all competence.
It's not able to do anything anymore that is effective.
I don't think the U.S. would even be able to respond with a retaliatory strike, frankly.
I think it's so far gone that they'd be sitting there in their bras and high heels having like a tranny twerking bar dance show in the cafe of the aircraft carrier or whatever.
They'd be so busy twerking with each other.
I think it's that bad.
They're probably having like a gay orgy sextival.
That's a sex festival, I guess.
A sextival on the upper decks of the aircraft carriers with Lloyd Austin watching or maybe participating, except he's in the hospital now with more cancer.
They probably just have gay orgies and trans orgies and drag queen shows all over.
All the Navy vessels and then the U.S. would just get completely nuked.
And that would be that would be the end of the U.S. empire.
Because we no longer live in a nation, if you're an American, you're not living in a nation that is run by competent people, honest people, capable people, no, no, no.
I mean, you're living in a nation that is run by crooks and morons and treasonous actors and traitors and perverts and groomers and child traffickers and just kind of the worst, most nefarious criminals that you can possibly imagine.
That's who's running the nations of the West.
So let's actually go to our first special report today.
Maybe we'll only run one episode.
Because the interview coming up is quite lengthy.
So the special report here is called, What Will Future Historians Say Led the U.S. Empire to Its Final Destruction?
Let's go to that, and then I'll be back on the other side.
Here's a question for you.
When future historians analyze the collapse of the United States Empire, to what factors will they attribute that collapse?
Good question.
And where to begin, right?
It's become a total clown show.
Rigged elections were obviously part of it.
And since the people no longer could choose who represented them, then, of course, the representatives all became crooks and hoes and, you know, morons and woke tards.
And that's the Biden administration, right?
I mean, that's the Pentagon now.
So that's a big part of it.
Rigged elections.
But also debt.
Money printing, you know, currency collapse, but just government debt spiraling out of control with a United States Senate that was willing to fund, you know, what is it, $95 billion now in handout money in this current Senate bill for Ukraine and for Israel and for Taiwan, but $0 for the U.S. border, $0 for Americans.
And you gotta understand, the US, the Senate, is wanting to fund the entire Ukrainian government.
All their government offices, all their pensions, their entire healthcare system, half the corporations, their entire military-industrial complex, everything is being funded by US taxpayers.
While the US taxpayers themselves get zero benefit.
So clearly this is an unsustainable train wreck of an economic policy.
Just print more money and hand it out to other nations around the world that are also on a path toward collapse.
So that was part of it as well.
Then, of course, they'll also point to government suppression of freedom of speech, I believe, and how the government abandoned the Bill of Rights and just said, well, we don't have to abide by the First Amendment or the Second Amendment or Fourth or Fifth or Tenth or anything.
They just do whatever they want.
Just through the force of coercion.
The rule of law is abandoned.
The courts are broken, bankrupt, corrupt.
Even many of the judges, the left-wing judges, have become irrational woke-tards who can't even run a courtroom properly.
But you know what I think the biggest factor will actually be?
I think the biggest factor is apathy.
It's that most Americans just stopped giving a crap about anything that mattered.
They didn't want to get involved in politics.
They didn't want to have to think about the collapsing currency.
123 million people watched the Super Bowl recently.
I mean, can you believe that?
How astonishing is that?
That's more than half the adult population of America just glued to their TV sets while the Senate was...
Passing, procedurally, this bill to send $95 billion to the rest of the world and nothing for America.
Also, while Israel was bombing the city of Rafa in southern Gaza, that all happened during the Super Bowl because everybody was just glued to their TVs, distracted by sports tribalism and Taylor Swift and whoever else.
It doesn't matter.
It's a clown show.
It's bread and circuses.
The average American is an apathetic fool who has no knowledge of what's happening.
And they even pride themselves in having no knowledge.
And they will tell you, too.
If you bring up things to them, like, well, gosh, did you know that the central bank is just inventing money out of nowhere and devaluing the currency and there's global de-dollarization trends?
Oh, stop being so gloomy, you know.
We don't need to concern ourselves with such things, this kind of thing.
Really?
Well, have you noticed your groceries going up, like doubling in price or tripling over the past few years?
Have you noticed that?
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
But they don't want to be bothered with that.
Oh, halftime is on.
Halftime show is about to begin.
Somebody grab the Doritos!
You know, that's the typical American.
Fools.
Now, I know that's not you, if you're listening to this.
I mean, you and I are the, what, the one in a thousand who are extremely well informed about what's going on in the world.
And that's why the oblivious look at us like Nostradamus.
They're like, how did you know it's going to happen?
How do you always know?
Because we pay attention?
Because we have knowledge?
Oh my god, knowledge is a scary word.
Starts with a K, yeah.
A silent one, no less.
Yeah.
We have knowledge.
We have information, reason.
That terrifies the oblivious masses.
And so, again, when historians look back, they will say America collapsed mostly because the population became apathetic.
But, you know, this is a very predictable cycle.
This eventually follows abundance, right?
So, a young nation, or let's say early in the cycle, A nation may be very prosperous and very abundant.
And then, you know, people become decadent and focused on material wealth and collecting material things all the time, even if it's not useful.
I mean, I understand collecting prepping supplies because I do that.
But, I mean, people collecting, like, homes and boats and luxury cars and jewelry and luxury handbags and whatever.
It's like, really?
And then following decadence, oh, I should add, decadence also comes with sexual perversion.
And as we're seeing now, the whole LGBT movement is another sign of the twisting of society.
And it falls into then apathy in the final stage, like nobody gives a crap.
And there's also no rule of law, which is the defunding of the police.
And, you know, refusal for DAs to prosecute criminals and so on.
So you end up with an apathetic collapse.
And in that collapse, I mean, history shows this over and over again.
History shows, I mean, and you know the book, what is it, The Fourth Coming, I think?
History shows that...
A lot of people typically die in these collapses because it often ends up in a revolution or war or a currency collapse and often mass migration, you know, revolts, all kinds of things happen.
And then out of that, often, a few years later...
Will come the rejuvenation of a new nation.
And then you repeat the cycle.
You have abundance and prosperity again, and the rule of law is enforced and so on.
So that's the cycle that we're seeing.
Now, these cycles are dramatically exaggerated in the rise and fall of the U.S. Empire.
And here's why.
And it goes back to World War II. The success of the United States of America in dominating the world in the post-World War II era, partly because of the nuclear bomb, by the way, the success was so dramatic that it allowed the global domination of the dollar currency, which then later on became the petrodollar standard for buying and selling oil that was enforced by the Saudis and other oil nations.
This allowed the United States of America to eventually fall into such irrational excesses because it had the advantage of dollar hegemony around the world.
The U.S. could do anything it wanted.
The U.S. could demand anything of any nation because it could threaten those nations with economic sanctions because, well, the dollar was the world reserve currency.
I mean, it still is to some degree, but of course that's collapsing, so not much longer, right?
And just like the child of a wealthy person will become a spoiled brat, and they will be full of themselves, and they will think they have the power to run the town and everything, the U.S. was that way globally around the world.
The U.S. became extremely arrogant, extremely demanding and bullying and dangerous.
And also projecting its evils onto the rest of the world.
Like everything that the United States accuses Russia of doing, those are things that the U.S. Empire is doing itself, you know?
Like expansionism and putting military bases everywhere and threatening its neighbors.
How many countries around the world currently have U.S. military bases where they're not invited?
You know, like Syria, for example.
So, again, the power of the U.S. victory in World War II led to this incredible global domination of the dollar, and that led to geopolitical decadence and a kind of arrogance and a sense of imperviousness by the numerous administrations.
Thinking that the U.S. was, quote, the exceptional nation, or what they call American exceptionalism, That the United States of America was the one nation that the world could not do without.
And therefore, the U.S. had to expand and it had to force itself upon all these other nations.
It was the Wolfowitz Doctrine, this kind of thinking.
And this was developed over many administrations and many years, you know, back to the late 1980s, even the Reagan era.
But this was the whole idea that America deserved to force itself upon the world.
America deserved to destroy anybody who resisted America, you know, like Gaddafi.
And America could just destroy Libya or just destroy Iraq, just destroy Syria, because those countries refused to go along with supporting the petrodollar.
Now, as this was happening, then, the U.S. empire became more and more delusional and disconnected from reality.
It wasn't just a disconnect from, you know, monetary reality.
It then morphed into a total disconnect from biological reality, and that's been expressed as transgenderism and the whole LGBT movement, which is, let's face it, it is a grand shared delusion that's embraced by the mass mentally ill.
That's what that is.
Anybody who thinks that a man can get pregnant or that a man can give birth is mentally ill.
There's no other way to say it.
They're just mentally ill morons, you know?
But that has become a prominent group in the United States of America today for all the reasons I'm talking about here.
So this mass disconnect from reality, which became this delusional thinking that was then projected into every area, economics, geopolitics, military, medicine, pharma, the pandemic, all of it.
So what we end up with is a nation that's rooted in total delusion.
And that's where we are right now.
And now it's just in the final stages of tearing itself apart.
It's inevitable because of where we are.
And again, nobody gives a crap.
I mean, do you think that the Senate could get away with this kind of, you know, $95 billion handout if the people actually paid attention and called their senators' offices and told them what they think?
I mean, if the people were engaged in politics?
The answer is no.
No, it's because people are watching the Super Bowl.
It's because people are paying attention to celebrity news and the Kardashians or whatever's going on.
The American people have become too decadent, too disconnected from reality, to actually be part of a sustainable nation.
They no longer are in the driver's seat of what's happening, and they're too ignorant to even care, to even understand what's happening.
They just go to the grocery store and they think, oh, groceries are becoming more expensive.
Why is it?
Oh, my God.
And they believe Joe Biden when he says it's the fault of the food companies.
The grocery stores have raised prices.
Those darn grocery stores, you know, and with their ice cream prices, there are millions of Americans who believe that explanation because they don't know any better.
You know, there was a song, I think, was it Green Day?
It was called American Idiot.
I don't know what the song was about, but the title is, you know, spot on.
Because a lot of Americans have become just oblivious idiots.
And, you know, this is true among many Canadians and Australians and Europeans and so on.
Because of this too much abundance, too much wealth, too much decadence.
And then it all got perverted and twisted into what we're seeing today.
So that's what historians are going to say, I believe, is that it was apathy that ultimately led to the collapse of the U.S. Empire.
And you can name a lot of, you know, sub-causes like money printing and election rigging and judicial corruption and things like that.
Or even racial tensions that were provoked by the dishonest media.
You know, you can name a lot of things.
But make no mistake, when the collapse does accelerate here, the U.S. establishment will blame Russia.
So, despite everything that we've talked about here, And all the irresponsible activities of the Federal Reserve and the Treasury and the government and the Senate, they're going to say, well, it's Russia's fault.
Oh, why did the banks fail?
Oh, Russia must have taken them down.
It was a cyber hack from Russia.
It wasn't our fault, you know, as trillions of dollars just vanish and everybody loses their life savings and the dollar plunges towards zero.
It was Russia, you know, because that's how insane the whole system is.
They can't even admit it when it's all blowing up in their faces, you see.
So be prepared for all that.
And stay informed, of course.
You can catch my podcast at brighteon.com or you can read my articles at naturalnews.com.
Be sure to check out our affiliate site for goldbacks.
Also, verifiedgoldbacks.com shows you my laboratory testing of the goldbacks, which are physical notes that have physical gold embedded in them at very precise amounts.
And also with a better than 24 karat purity.
So I've done all the tests and I share the tests with you.
Verifiedgoldbacks.com, it's an affiliate site.
It does earn us a little bit if you purchase Goldbacks there, but that also helps support our network and it gets Goldbacks into your hands, which is a good thing.
So it's off-grid money that will hold value even when the dollar doesn't.
Thank you for listening.
Take care.
Alright, hope you enjoyed that report.
We're about to jump into the interview with Farsom, the founder of Holospace, or Holospace, like hologram, but Holospace, H-O-L-O. And we have a fascinating discussion about transhumanism and technocracy and AI,
both the risks of AI, but also the potential benefits if we can harness it In a decentralized fashion to support human liberty and empower human knowledge, which is that's the project that I'm working on, as you know.
So we talk about our project actually in this interview.
You may have also noticed that you no longer hear server fans humming behind me or, you know, in my room as I'm recording.
That's because I finally moved the server out of my office and I have built a growing data center.
Now I've added other servers to it.
Kind of like a home office data center.
That's in addition to our hosted servers, which are far away.
But I have kind of a mini data center that I'm building out that's doing a lot of AI tasks right now.
And I was able to get it into a different room.
It is generating a lot of heat, though.
That will probably be a concern as the summer approaches in Texas.
I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to cool everything, but I will give it a shot.
In any case, we're making a lot of great progress.
And we've had a lot of content creators give us permission to use their content.
And I know that many of you listening have also contributed your content.
We're going to be incorporating a lot of new content in terms of training this large language model.
And, for example, one of the experts whose material is going to be used for training is David Morgan, the silver guru.
And he's given us permission.
And we have a lot of book authors.
We've been fetching all of David Morgan's videos, by the way.
I think it's like over 3,000 videos that we have from David Morgan.
And we have a data pipeline that does all the transcription and then data preparation for the fine-tuning training.
So I think we're the only people in the world that are taking the entire video catalog of David Morgan and using it to train an AI model.
Which is going to be pretty awesome if you start to ask the AI system about central banks or gold or silver or fiat currency.
Wow, it's going to have the knowledge of David Morgan.
That's going to be pretty cool.
But it's also pretty cool that we built this infrastructure where we can do that.
Where we can just take somebody's name, somebody that gives us permission, and we can just get all their videos, all their books, all their articles, and we can ingest that into our data pipeline system, and then we can use that for training the AI model.
And it will influence the knowledge of the AI model that you'll be getting for free at the end of March.
Pretty soon, we're going to have a website where you can sign up with your email address to be alerted when we release that model.
It'll be about an 8-gigabyte download, by the way.
You'll be able to download it for free.
You can run it locally.
We'll have instructions for you of how to do that, and then you can chat with it.
Its special area of focus is actually nutrition and herbs and foods and superfoods and so on.
Gardening, permaculture, food production.
Natural medicine, herbs, all kinds of medical systems like traditional Chinese medicine, Amazonian medicine, and so on.
Various indigenous medicine knowledge-based sets are being incorporated into the model.
But since David Morgan gave us permission, we're also like, let's teach it all about gold and silver, too.
So it's pretty cool.
We've got a lot of good stuff happening.
So thank you for your support.
Without your support, none of this would be possible.
And you can support us by visiting healthrangerstore.com.
And there we're featuring our Valentine's Day sale right now, which is going on.
We've got specials up to 46% off, even though I know you probably won't get the products until after Valentine's Day.
But it's inspired by Valentine's Day, and it is a sale.
It's got a lot of great products there.
And, of course, we have many products.
New products.
Let me bring up one.
It's the Organic Peanut Butter and Chocolate Instant Superfood Shake, which is incredibly delicious.
And it's got just simple ingredients, ultra clean, lab tested.
Organic whey protein powder, organic banana powder, organic peanut butter powder, organic cocoa powder, and organic coconut sugar.
And that's it.
No flavors, no artificial flavors, no fillers, no toxic chemical sweeteners, nothing.
It's so simple.
It's very delicious.
It blends with water.
You can stir it with a spoon, but it works better to have a little bit of a blender going.
And also, did you know we have the gluten-free organic blueberry vanilla pancake mix?
Yeah, look for that.
Also, very simple ingredients.
It's a super delicious blueberry vanilla pancake mix.
And of course, our blueberries are real blueberries.
Not like, you know, all the fake processed food instant mixes and things that you get at the grocery store.
They say blueberry pancakes.
And then little tiny letters on the front of the box under the word blueberry, it says flavored.
Blueberry flavored pancake mix is not really blueberries, you know?
And you read the ingredients and it's like, what the heck?
Propylene glycol in like blue number 40?
What is this crap?
It's like fake blueberry chunks, you know?
That's what you get from the grocery store.
That's why people are dying all the time from highly toxic processed foods.
I mean, that's why we have so much cancer and heart disease and Alzheimer's and, you know, everything else.
Diabetes.
It's because people are just eating toxic crap, artificial chemical ingredients like fake blueberry chunks, you know?
So we use real blueberries in the real organic blueberry vanilla pancake mix.
You know, who would have thought that doing something so simple could be so revolutionary It's like, oh my god, Health Ranger, how did you have such revolutionary recipes?
I just use real blueberries.
I mean, that's it.
It doesn't take a genius.
Just use real food.
It's not rocket science.
Oh crap, I'm looking at the website.
It's all sold out.
So the organic blueberry vanilla pancake mix is currently gone.
I'm sorry about that.
Let me mention something else.
We also have the macaroni, organic macaroni and cheese, which is wheat free.
And it's an instant meal mix.
You just boil water and you put in the macaroni.
And then later on, the cheese powder, and it's real.
It's also, everything's real.
It's so simple.
There's no artificial colors.
There's no any colors.
There's no fillers, no artificial flavors.
There's no salt added to this either.
It's just organic white cheddar and organic heavy cream or organic butter powder, organic onion, organic black pepper, and so on.
Simple ingredients.
Again, it's not rocket science, and we do have that in stock right now, so if you want to try some of that, it's very delicious.
I just want to tell you, it's not like deeply yellow or yellowish like the artificial macaroni and cheese, like Kraft macaroni and cheese.
Check the ingredients, folks.
They add coloring to it, okay?
Our macaroni and cheese does not add color.
It's just real, right?
Yeah, and it tastes delicious.
People love it.
Add a little bit of salt to your taste, since we don't add any salt to it at all.
It's pretty...
I mean, we can't call it salt-free.
We can't even call it low-sodium, but it's definitely lower-sodium.
You'll want to add a little bit of salt, probably.
Okay, anyway, bottom line, when you support us, we support you in return.
So if you buy our delicious, clean food products, we will build amazing AI language model systems and give them to you for free that are built on a vast array of knowledge.
And, you know, not only that, we provide a lot of benefits in terms of empowerment and a knowledge base and doing the interviews and doing these podcasts and, you You know, radiation, contamination, removal from water filters and things like that.
And we're still working on our dioxin system, by the way.
Not yet up and running in production.
We've run into several issues with limited detection on dioxins.
And we're still working on that.
I will keep you posted.
But that's...
One of our key goals here is to be able to test all our foods for dioxins as well as the other things we already test for, which is heavy metals and glyphosate and aflatoxins and E. coli and salmonella and so on and so forth.
So, with all that said, thank you for your support, and here's the, I think, really exciting interview with Farsim from Holospace, where we talk about technocracy, AI, and transhumanism.
And I even ask him the question, can demons infest AI systems, right?
So, wait till you hear his answer.
It's very interesting.
Check it out.
Welcome to today's in-studio interview.
We have a very special guest to talk about technology and AI and so much more of what's happening with the technocrats and how we can maintain human freedom in a technology-driven society.
It's Farsim, who's the creator of Holospace.
Welcome, Farsim, to the show.
Thanks, Mike.
Thanks for having me.
It's an honor to be here.
Well, it's great to have you here, and I just want to thank you for all that you've done.
I've known you for many years.
You have offered a lot of wisdom and analysis to me privately about a lot of technology issues.
I just want to thank you for that.
My pleasure.
And here we are on the verge of maybe upcoming even the Singularity or AGI. We'll talk about that in a minute.
I think that most of society has no idea what has already happened And how civilization is about to dramatically change over the next couple of years.
You want to give us kind of an overview of what you see happening?
Happily, Mike.
And I also want to acknowledge that you have been a rare voice in this space, calling out technological trends that are effectively technocracy in disguise.
The slow creep of the convergence of our governmental structures with effectively pure Appearances of private technology, consumer-grade technology, that have come together now and coalesced in a system that is doing what old intelligence agencies used to have to do a lot of cloak and dagger to do.
Now we're all carrying around these devices that are spying on us and have normalized them.
And feeding them all of our information voluntarily through our search queries and browsing histories and everything else.
Exactly.
And the funny thing is, when you even talk to younger people who weren't even born when this was starting, they all know this and they consider this just a given.
So they're basically born into a culture that has absolutely normalized a kind of technocratic view of things, surveillance.
And then also it's flip side that people don't often refer to.
It's a different term, a French term.
It's surveillance, which is the surveillance of one another.
So our technologies are also simultaneously listening to one another.
Right now we're in an age where we can start to flip the script, Mike.
That's why I'm here.
That's why I connect with individuals such as yourself and start to change the force for greater independence.
It's interesting.
This is a great conversation to be having with you.
Well, let's talk about the realm of AI and large language models, because this is where I think there's a really critical pivot point for human civilization and human freedom.
There's, on one hand, the open source movement, which is very strong in large language models.
And, of course, I'm working on a project in that space.
Maybe we can talk about that.
But then there's the centralized open AI, which is not open.
It's closed AI, but it's called open AI. And there's the giants, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Meta, and what have you.
And they want to control the AI space.
They want a monopoly on it.
They don't want people to have open source options.
But I think they're going to lose.
I think that the democratization or decentralization of AI technology is already unstoppable.
What do you think?
Yeah, I definitely think that they're concerned that if they do not continue to capture the space as they have for the last two and a half to three decades, depending on when you think the internet officially started.
But in the mid-90s, we had a move to the democratization of technology.
Those of us who are coming up in that space had a very kind of cyberpunk view of the future.
Had we been able to get a snapshot of 2024 way back in the mid-90s, we would be terrified.
Oh, yeah.
Things are way, way more controlled than we know.
Now, at the same time, we have the illusion of consumer freedom, right?
Look at all those colors I can choose from.
Look at all these incredible tools I have.
Yes, there's an app for everything.
But at the back end, and that's really how the capture has happened, Mike, is we have transposed consumer freedom for our governmental freedoms, for our liberties, for our basic everyday sovereignty.
And I think that's how you get the average person, is you get them dumbed down, you get them influenced by, again, another thing you have fought, battles on, and do every day, which is inappropriate food supply that has toxified us, made us sick, made us weak, and made the average person not necessarily capable of doing as independent a body of thinking as they need to, to know where they're at in the world.
Yeah, the processed food and the pesticides affect the brain.
Right.
I think I literally read that the average American consumes 70% of their calories from ultra-processed, hyper-palatable foods.
Wow.
So that is not a good picture.
You and I know what the implications of just that statistic alone are.
So then on the other end, you have tools that just basically, like in the film Wally, distract us, amuse us.
I think Neil Postman wrote a great book in the early 80s called Amusing Ourselves to Death.
He saw this coming too.
He was a student of Marshall McLuhan.
You know, 123 million Americans watched the Super Bowl recently.
I didn't even know the Super Bowl was happening until that day when I saw it.
Why is everybody talking about the Super Bowl?
That's not on my radar at all.
And while that was happening, you know, nefarious things were happening in the Senate, right?
Yep.
Because everybody's distracted.
But it seems like distraction is one of the key weapons that's used against humanity.
Like, focus on this while we steal your money, your rights, your future, your freedoms over here.
Right.
And I'm here today, Mike, to talk about the prosumer side of it, that word that actually came out also in the 90s, the producer-consumer hybrid, the ability for us to use these tools, to use our abilities.
We do have degrees of freedom right now.
It's arguable that AI tools will take away the last vestiges of that.
There is a degree to which everybody needs to sign up for this.
So they need people to participate on a deeper level.
It's a bit of a reach right now.
But, you know, those of us who are in the future space are already seeing the next phase of this after AI, which would be the Neuralink type projects.
Of course, Elon, love him or hate him, is doing a lot of things in a lot of spaces.
And he's setting the tone.
There's going to be a hundred startups underneath Neuralink that come in and basically absolutely modernize, normalize, make accessible everyday uses of brain implants.
So again, once AI is driving a lot of things and then people feel obligated to do some kind of invasive technology prosthesis, then we have really, where else is left?
Where else is left, Mike?
Well, but see, I'm extremely concerned about the Neuralink project for a number of reasons.
Not only did they do, I think, inhumane testing on animals.
That's one thing that I'm concerned about.
But secondly, we've already seen how much mobile phones have altered the brains of especially children and youth.
Yes.
So young people now grow up with this very short attention span, which equates to an inability to engage in long-term decision-making with an understanding of the ramifications of the effects of their actions.
That's just from mobile phones, which you can put down.
Imagine when it's an implant in your brain or it's an overlay contact lens.
Think about the Apple, what's it called, the Vision Pro?
Apple Vision Pro.
Think about the Apple Vision Pro embedded in your eyes.
Right.
Like all the time, it's a virtual environment.
What's that going to do to especially kids and teens, but also everybody else?
I mean, we're already a society that's disconnected from reality in so many ways.
It seems like it's going to get a lot worse.
Mike, there's a branch of neuroscience called neuro-sequential development.
All of that is as neuroscientists saying, well, this is how things used to be.
This is how humans used to organically develop.
There were stages of life nature has built in.
You see it throughout the animal kingdom, and humans have it too.
Especially those first 14 to 21 years, we need to unfold the way we were designed.
At every step, in many cases, in the first few months of life, if not in gestation or preconception, that's being altered.
We have very few, at least in America or the North American continent, organic humans left in the sense of letting people just develop in nature and with nature.
Now, the technological interventions that you and I are talking about today, we're looking at not doubling down, maybe a tripling down of what we've seen the last three decades now.
So in some senses, they've studied how far they can push this.
Now that's going to exponentially grow and accelerate.
We've seen in Black Mirror, which lots of people watched and gassed.
I feel like we're living Black Mirror every now.
We're watching it wash ashore every day, a little more of Black Mirror, right?
So there was a great episode about contact lenses that are recording and filming and overlaying every day, surveilling everybody 24-7 and what kind of society that would be.
But they also know that that can't be done overnight.
That has to be very gradual.
Let's talk about the upside also then of augmented reality technology because as you know, every tech can be used to enslave people or to set people free.
I'm going to define that as the two polar ends of the spectrum.
if used appropriately, could, for example, allow you to have, you know, here's Benjamin Franklin in the room teaching you about American history.
Right.
Like characters, obviously this just scratches the surface, but characters that are added to your reality space and that interact with you verbally and auditorily.
Yes.
I could see that even for training.
I mean, think about law enforcement training.
Think about debate training.
I mean, just teachers all throughout your life.
That would be an amazing use of that tech.
Right, Mike.
Open education.
We've been talking about this for quite some time.
The question is, so we'll get a little bit into this today.
I hope AI agents need to be drawing from a well that is unpolluted, that's not controlled and pre-constrained and pre-filtered and pre-edited.
Too late for that.
So if there's a customized tutor that is giving my child the education they need, question to question, following their curiosity trail down the trail with them, but that kid doesn't know that 50% of the knowledge that they could have access to has already been redacted.
Right.
Right?
So this is a question I remember having this conversation with you several years ago on how unfree Wikipedia was becoming with every passing year.
In its first five years, it was, by today's standards, anarchic.
It was anybody posting whatever they wanted with very little ombudsmanship.
It's a CIA mouthpiece.
Google and look up inside Wikipedia the definition of alternative medicine.
It's defined as that medicine which has not been proven to be true.
It's effectively a bum definition of what alternative medicine should be in a definitive sense.
Right, right.
No, I think our audience knows Wikipedia has been totally controlled by nefarious forces that are allied against human freedom and against human knowledge.
And this is also critical.
By the way, I want to mention, if people are hearing huffing and puffing in the background, that is my security dog.
We ran him hard, played with him, and he's calming down.
But if you hear a little bit of that...
That's him, not me.
He's adorable.
Yeah, he's hanging out here.
He's having a great time.
But Google started out as, you know, the goal was to index the world's knowledge.
And now, I've argued for a couple of years now that the job of Google is to hide the world's knowledge, is to dissociate knowledge from Or dissociate humans from knowledge.
It's an anti-knowledge search engine.
And I happen to believe, and this is why I'm working on a large language model project, I think that LLMs are now the new frontier of free speech that can make Google obsolete, and that's why I'm working on this project.
Exactly right, Mike.
And your audience and people who are passionate about whether or not there's still time, space, and how to do it, right?
We can all be armchair critics, or we can get up out of our seats and build the tools that we need for that future.
Learn to code.
And I know you and I in our conversations, yes, learn to code or find an app in this ecosystem that we're building.
What I do at Holospace, it's an open incubator system and model.
We have resources, tools.
It's all open source.
Yeah, tell us about Holospace, because you're the one who created that, right?
Yeah, yes, I am the founder, and my concern after decades of watching sort of this technology creep, technological overwhelm, you look at the Center for Humane Technology and that Netflix documentary, The Social Dilemma, they accurately described what was going on.
I've been in and around what the Center for Humane Technology does, but they're still just a policy group pushing out papers, analyzing it.
They play a vital role, but they're not inventing the new tools.
The metaphor I go with, Mike, is who is going to create the tool that once is out of the genie bottle can't be put back in?
I'll give you one quick point that we need to have here.
Now we have you and I access to virtually free LLMs off the shelf that can read all of Wikipedia in dozens of languages in about five minutes or less and then churn out.
So there's still this kind of let's call it a cultural arms race.
There's this open space and before that is fully locked down.
And we're unable to make these decisions before it's fully Orwellian.
We need to get out the tools, the platforms, the systems to be able to have enough of an open culture that it can't be fully, fully captured.
Well, and I... I would say that with HuggingFace.co out there, which is a really nice repository of LLMs, and we're going to be contributing to HuggingFace, and there's one man in particular, Eric Hartford, who has created the uncensored dolphin varieties of many of the LLMs out there, like Llamatu and Vicuna and Mistral and so on.
And clearly he's opposed to censorship.
He does fine-tuning training of the LLMs that take away the guardrails and labels them uncensored, which I think is the appropriate thing to do because if I'm asking an LLM, how do I break into a car, why should it assume that I'm going to carry out a crime?
I might need to break into my own car or I might be writing a fictional script about breaking into a car.
And I might need some assistance with that.
So there is a very strong open-source movement that we're contributing to.
We're going to be releasing our first open-source model at the end of March, and we're calling it NEO at the moment with the matrix and all that.
But we're training it.
Our initial data set, and the data pipeline is the hardest part of this, by the way, but our initial data set is all herbs, nutrition, permaculture, off-grid, living, and phytochemicals.
I have no doubt this is going to be the world's best open-source model with nutritional and food knowledge of anything out there.
And I'm thrilled to be able to push that into the open space and let other people train on it.
We can't wait to see it, and I want to help you bring that into existence.
And I know that your community participating in the usage of it is what's going to continue its evolution and growth.
That's right.
There's endless amounts of knowledge it can be trained on.
We want it to be so robust, the average person recognizes it as the definitive source for this.
Well, I just put out the call for people to contribute, and you wouldn't believe.
I mean, I've got signed permission from a lot of well-known people to use their entire body of knowledge for training.
Everybody wants to contribute to this project, like Dr.
Judy Mikovits, for example.
Right.
She's contributing, and many others are contributing.
And what maybe the end users here don't know, but you'll be able to run it locally.
So no internet connection is necessary to run this.
You can run it on a Mac, on Windows, or Linux.
Right.
So decentralization and peer-to-peer architectures are absolutely fundamental to this.
This is purely decentralized offline tech.
And so, Mike, I want to make this point because it's irrelevant to the time we're in right now.
I made the journey into Switzerland, up the Swiss Alps, and attended World Economic Forum, which, for those who wonder whether or not World Economic Forum is an elitist enclave completely closed off to the world, it's not.
All you need is one little ticket into Switzerland and then a train ticket two hours up the mountain, and you're there.
It's a public ski town.
Anyone can walk those streets like I did.
It was not hard to access.
Once you're there, there's lots of opportunities to participate in tons of open events.
A group called UnDavos is there to disrupt the agenda that has been put forward there.
And the reason I'm pivoting to this point is because the infrastructure you're talking about, a radically different architecture based on decentralization architecture and peer-to-peer and many other components that will allow systems such as the one you're going to be propagating, Yeah, that we're talking about first started at the infrastructural level, we call that big data.
Big tech can't operate without big data feeding itself back how the network operations are constantly running, keeping that thing humming.
Wikipedia alone probably, we're gonna continue with that example, issues, I'm gonna argue something like a couple hundred million page views per second.
And you have a background in tech and computer science, Mike.
You know how hard that is for those data centers just to keep that running 24-7, 365 globally.
Right.
So they control the pipelines right now, the infrastructures, and that's how they're able to manipulate, massage the cultural and informational agendas.
I mean, there's a reason why it's called Infowars.
You're exactly correct.
But let me add that because of the advances in microprocessors...
Right.
That offloading from the data centers to the end user's local hardware in order to execute things like large language models, that is happening now, and that lends itself to decentralization.
It's kind of like before the Revolutionary War in America, the invention of the rifle was that everyday people could make a rifle.
And it changed history.
Because now everybody had a tool of freedom in that case.
Well, today, with the tools that are becoming available, I mean, we're just on the verge of this, just the cutting edge.
But everybody will be able to, very soon, I think within the next year, everybody will be able to take an off-the-shelf, open-source LLM, expose it to their own materials, whatever they want that to be.
It could be a bunch of their own books or transcripts or whatever.
And then generate their own local language model that they execute locally.
And that takes away power from the big data centralized platforms that no longer assert control over people.
So this is a revolution happening.
Mike, I want to fully agree with you, yes, and style, but I want to ever so slightly disagree only to provoke your audience and you into the urgent call for action.
Because as I was driving over here, the news came through that OpenAI has announced that its fundamental pivot, you know, Sam Altman was in and out as CEO, a CEO again, and they had to figure out a new business model.
Again, this is an We're good to go.
But we need to define what these agents are.
Yeah, so an agent is an automated workflow.
It's just, you know, they're going to have a task-specific automation.
And so it's kind of like little micro-AIs.
And in the 90s, everybody had to have a.com and an email client.
Now in the 2020s and into the 2030s, everyone's going to have and generate new business models around an agent for every area of life.
And importantly, in order for these agents to function, and Amazon already has a series of agents to Labeled Q, I believe.
You have to give these agents access to everything.
Your email, your passwords, your network, your hard drive, everything.
So you have to give up all...
Privacy.
Yes, you do.
Apple put out, also in the advent of this Apple Vision Pro release a couple weeks ago, a big paper today, a white paper on its privacy parameters and schematics.
And I had team members look at it laughing at how they're promoting the idea that it's all about privacy when, in fact, it's far from it.
And it has all kinds of backdoors as well that make it vulnerable to all kinds of cyber attacks.
But the pushback here, conceptually, Mike, is simple.
Open AI and these systems right now have a huge upper hand, and it's going to take creatives and engineers and liberty-oriented individuals such as those in your audience to get out there and create these tools and platforms at any area of life, whether it's just in your own community, whether it's in your church.
Create the tools that will allow you guys to maintain the sovereignty within your own infosphere right now.
Your information spheres are controlled by a bunch of people tied to Silicon Valley or in Silicon Valley.
And in a moment, I'm going to share a story about here in Austin, Texas, somebody tied to Google that I encountered.
And it's just unbelievable to me, Mike, the amount of arrogance.
It is arrogance on every level you might imagine.
They really are thinking they are the people driving forward the future and that therefore they have permission to do whatever they want, however they want, by any means necessary.
Yeah, talk about that because I've noticed that as well.
And it's because there's no pushback against them, not even by government, not even by the Supreme Court enforcing the First Amendment yet.
There is no such decision.
So Google thinks they can do anything they want.
Right, and some folks here know that 23andMe was founded by two women, and the woman who's retained the CEO status and has stayed on was basically in a number of open,
direct challenges and confrontations regarding the privacy around 23andMe, an online platform for having genomics testing done on yourself, If you do that, you're given a big end-user license agreement promising that you have all your data protected, but it's quite...
No, now that that's just not the case.
Plus, there was a big hack of 23andMe.
Not to mention the hack.
Yeah.
And then they just redefine the ways in which they're allowed to sell off your personal biological data and medicalize it as they please.
So that brave new world, Mike, is going to converge with several others.
And, you know, there have been brilliant futurists that have been seeing this coming for half a century or more.
At the same time, we had Buckminster Fuller reminding us around the same time, I think it was in the 1950s, he said, don't go competing against the existing paradigm.
You're going to cancel your energy out.
Simply render it obsolete through new acts of creation.
And that's my call to you, to everyone we work with, and to anyone in your audience.
Reach out to us.
Reach out to me.
Basically, finding your sphere and your empowerment is in the fact that you're able to create a tool right now that will withstand the test of time and participate in this new ecosystem.
You see, they have social media captured, they have all the informational warfare control, and they don't think that anyone's going to raise a hand to object to them.
Even when there is noise and disagreement, they've already outgamed that system.
But I... I have a lot of faith and hope in the understanding that the establishment Is so dissociated from reality that it makes truth-based interaction with technology far more compelling.
Yes.
So in other words, when I release my LLM, people are going to share it like crazy because it's the only LLM that will answer them honestly about what herbs can be used to prevent cancer.
Right.
Because OpenAI won't allow that kind of answer.
No.
Because it's all controlled by Big Pharma.
Right.
So the...
Models like mine and others will be so compelling, and that's just another example of how these tools can empower people.
Now, can people contact you and work with Holospace to launch new ventures?
Yes.
How does that work?
Yeah, we have all kinds of funds and resources, open source grants.
We have tools for education and learning.
All you need to do is Google Holospace and you'll find yourself in front of any number of our pages and platforms.
H-O-L-O space, one word.
The idea behind that was based on just a holographic paradigm.
There's a couple of other groups with really world-changing paradigms that have these same concerns.
Holochain, Holacracy.
We're looking at system change, folks, but we're looking at also the retainment of our original liberties, the retainment of our original freedoms.
We are 200 plus years into a big experiment, a thought experiment in freedom, and we have lost a lot of ground.
So we're going to have to regain that ground by finding new platforms for societal organization.
And right now, there's a lot of chaos around the world trying to determine what that is.
That's what you saw.
Anyone walking the streets of World Economic Reform would see this.
A lot of fiefdoms competing against one another for what that victory will be.
And of course, a lot of behind closed doors, uh, Stuff that nobody's ever going to directly witness, but I will tell you, you can see the echoes of it on the streets there.
Well, I encourage people to reach out to you if they want to jump into something new like that.
And let me share a little personal story along those same lines.
It was, I don't know, last year around October or November when I realized we were going to have to reinvent our whole business model based on the leap of technology that AI and LLM had just presented.
And I also made an executive decision very early on that we weren't going to use hosted or cloud-based AI systems or cloud-based AI training, that we were going to build our own infrastructure like we've done here for Brighteon.
Brighteon wouldn't exist if we didn't build our own data center, our own servers, our own code and everything.
And so I made it my mission to reinvent even my own knowledge base.
And I think you'll be proud of me, Farson, but I'm now running and modifying Python code.
I've typed pip install like 5,000 times on command lines now to load packages into the Python environment.
Amazing.
We're using the best open source tools that are out there and augmenting them like Whisper for transcriptions, for example, and doing fine-tuning training of Whisper, by the way.
And so we're doing all our own offline transcriptions of thousands and thousands of hours of people's interviews.
And again, if we try to do that in a cloud or a platform, they would eventually ban us because they don't like what we're doing because we're telling the truth about things.
Right.
I've become an expert in CUDA cores of NVIDIA GPUs, and maybe not an expert, but at least competent, right?
and being able to evaluate the hardware and setting up servers.
And yet I've received feedback from people in our space, independent media, who for the most part are saying, what are you doing?
Why are you doing all this?
And they don't see what you and I see, which is that they're going to be obsolete in the next 18 months.
Right.
Just like some guy writing articles and having a little article website.
Man, you're going to get steamrolled by 50,000 bots writing articles and eventually doing podcasts.
Your voice is going to be drowned out by the bots.
Right, you've experienced deplatforming.
Are you kidding me?
Which is why you had to build this.
We're like the poster child of being deplatformed.
Right.
So how are we going to maintain these open spaces?
My point is that the infrastructure is still captured.
You have just described exactly how much it takes to build an independent infrastructure, Mike.
You know what it takes to maintain and keep that up and running.
And the interesting thing is, Mike, the very tools they're putting out to do this, they're put back into our hands and we're able to, in a sense, out game them if we know how to And it takes a mind like yours to understand how these things operate and what to build.
So I really support Brighteon, and I support what you're going to be launching later this year.
And we will be at South by Southwest.
That's one space to engage us.
We'll have independent events all over here in Austin, Texas in mid-March onward.
But...
But our commitment with the startup ecosystems is to get people to hit the ground running in the spatial web, and that's another component of this.
So AI, which we spent the last year hearing a lot of hype about, and for those who see the big picture, we know a lot of that bubble is going to burst.
Some AI will remain, and that's the part.
This is the same exact pattern from the mid to late 90s and the mid to late aughts when Web 2 kind of came out.
Big hype cycle, crash, and then consolidation of a few survivors into this monolithic thing that we call big tech and big data now.
So big tech and big data by the 2030s, Mike, could easily be...
You can back off the microphone.
Yeah.
Big tech and big data could easily be, by the early 2030s, this AI-driven system with agents that have been pre-qualified, pre-fabricated, and pre-determined to voice what needs to be voiced to the people.
And really, there will actually be no venues for free speech.
Just the illusion of free speech.
Even worse than that, I noticed there are a lot of AI... Right.
Now, imagine when you combine that with augmented reality.
And let's say there's like an incel, like a young man has no girlfriends, but he's got an AI girlfriend.
Right.
And she starts to whisper into his ear and tells him how to vote.
Right.
Or what to think or what not to say.
Oh, you can't say this.
Oh, those people are bad.
You know, Tucker Carlson.
Oh, he's bad.
He interviewed Putin.
You know, you can imagine that.
The AI girlfriends are going to control these young men's lives.
I'm genuinely afraid for what's coming.
We know how the world of pornography has actually captured an entire generation or two of young men.
What is that going to be when it's on steroids?
Oh man, augmented reality porn.
Yeah, unfortunately, Mike, I mean, look, I always picture a city landscape as a cross-section.
Above ground, you see this beautiful city that's been built up for decades or centuries to where it's at.
But underground in the cross-section, you can see that that thing runs from the pipes and the sewer systems.
And what's actually moving through it is a very different picture.
When you see at the back end from the data center view what runs through the Internet, It's not all the cool emojis and popular things that we see as the icons of the internet.
It's what human beings really use the internet for.
And so there's definitely very real numbers internally.
They understand the role of the distraction, whether it's movies, porn, or just people talking nonsense or fighting and arguing all day.
So we do have a culture that really needs a lot of healing and growing and cleaning up.
And so I do commend the Center for Human Technology.
We've taken it a step further.
We're building the tools necessary to get us out of there.
And once enough of that has been distributed, that concept, that meme cannot be put back in the bottle.
Right.
People need the tools and the experience of being independent in the coming wave of technology.
And that's a great segue to another one of my main concerns that I want to talk with you about, which is the replacement of human cognition with machine cognition.
So you and I are both old enough to know that when we were young, people were a lot better at math.
You know, people at the grocery store, you know, if the cash register broke, they could do it in their heads or at least do it on paper.
Today, not a chance.
They can't even do it with a calculator.
Right.
And with more AI systems coming into existence, especially those that are very good at language processing, or NLP, natural language processing, they can write.
They can write As good as or better than most human beings.
And so I even heard a person the other day, I was on a conference with someone who was using AI tools online, and the person said, quote, I wrote 100 articles last month because of the AI tools.
I'm like, well, wait a second.
Did you actually write 100 articles?
No.
The AI tool wrote 100 articles.
You queried.
You put in a query for 100 articles.
You told it, like, write me an article about bubble gum or whatever.
That's not the same as writing an article, but that distinction is being blurred.
That's lost in the minds of people who are going to grow up with these tools.
They will live in a world where they never have to do math.
They never have to write a paragraph.
They never have to spell correctly.
No grammar, no punctuation.
I mean, their skills, and they don't even have to have a memory of reality.
They don't have to understand history because it's just going to be spoon-fed to them all the time.
Here's the history, and of course it's bullshit history.
So this is frightening to me that humans are going to become completely dissociated from the skills of navigating reality.
Mike, disassociation is the exact word, and I've actually gone deep into the psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience of it because I was very curious.
And it turns out there's two types of disassociation that are actually occurring right now.
people who've studied the longer-term impacts of all this technology on up-and-coming generations and existing generations, they use the terms depersonalization and derealization.
The initials are DPDR.
Those hang together.
There's a reason they just say DPDR.
Depersonalization is pretty obvious.
It's our inability to have interpersonal sense of one another.
Social media is the virtual replacement for real-life relationships.
When that scales and hangs out in your developmental phases for decades at a time, you just are naturally depersonalized.
You probably aren't comfortable sitting and talking to somebody for 20, 30 minutes, let alone an hour, unless there's an agenda behind it, let alone with somebody you don't know.
That was normal for us growing up, sitting for hours, making eye contact, having a real human conversation.
It was called visiting.
It was called being human.
Oh, we have visitors.
Right.
Let's sit down and visit.
That was an actual term.
Right.
What did visit mean?
It meant basically just chatting about nothing.
And with the realization, Mike, you don't have a full sense of reality.
When those two hang together, that disassociation...
Makes for people that are so easy to manipulate in game.
You just change the news cycle.
You change the information feed.
You have algorithmic hacking of their daily lives.
They're sending in the black helicopters right now.
I do hear that.
That's wild.
You know from even just The Social Dilemma, which things are moving so fast, that documentary is now a few years dated.
And they've moved beyond that.
And it's funny how this works because Greenpeace got blown the whistle on it for greenwashing for big corporations and oil companies a decade or so after it came into being as a kind of rebellious activist organization.
And the same thing could be happening with these organizations that are trying to give the tech companies an insight to be more humane.
But they're just being co-opted themselves to whitewash those corporate agendas.
Apple CEO Tim Cook has talked about how he was very concerned for his nephews and nieces in social media and how he limited their use of it.
But we don't know to what extent Apple has a vision for the future planned on.
And this is the thing.
It sounds like a person like me is just a Luddite.
I don't want these tools.
No, I do believe these tools are incredible stepping stones to a better world and a better future.
I just think we have to design them right.
And it's the design philosophy that is everything.
I'm right there with you on that, right?
And neither one of us are Luddites because we're actually, I think, very pioneering in our application of technology.
There's no question about that.
But we also understand that we need to grasp the tech and use it to empower us instead of allowing it to enslave us.
Yes.
Because if you don't understand the tech, you will be enslaved by it.
Right.
If you don't understand what is metadata even, just simple things.
Right.
And you poke it around on your iPhone, you don't realize everything's going back to Apple headquarters and they're building a profile of you.
Right.
If you're ignorant, you're enslaved.
If you're knowledgeable, then you have a chance at this.
And that's one of the reasons I've dived into this so much, in order to be able to generate a large language model tools that empower humanity instead of enslaving us.
But we live in a world...
Let me segue to the bigger question.
We live in a world where you can see the collision coming, where the AI agents that you mentioned, and OpenAI just made that big announcement, AI agents are, I would argue right now today, are more capable than your typical human office assistant.
Right.
No question about it.
Right.
AI agents are more accurate, they're more detailed, and they show up to work like they don't complain, right?
Right.
They are capable of replacing, I would argue right now, capable, although it's going to take a few years for this to happen, I think they can replace about 50% of office jobs.
Yep.
Right now.
So what does that mean for the role of humans who are going to be replaced and also the blue-collar jobs with the humanoid robots that have arms and limbs and can work in warehouses and whatever?
Right.
What does that mean for humanity?
Right.
We can build the technological infrastructures to go with the education example, Mike, that give people the knowledge and skills they need.
There are wonderful uses of automation.
As long as it's done voluntarily, scaled according to the cultures, societies, counties, cities, communities that do the labor and work, they get to choose how that automation is implemented.
It's not going to be a global transnational corporation that gets to decide that an entire workforce in some city or county has suddenly been laid off because they've been able to create robots that do what they do.
This is definitely, very clearly, another piece of it.
The humanoid robot piece is also coming We're good to go.
But those tools will be the normative tools out there.
They could do great things if we build the substantive solutions that actually create the alternative out there.
And we make it so that you can't be deplatformed.
If Mike Adams, LLM startup, is able to exist in the same ecosystems, then it should be an open, laissez-faire space where the better knowledge gets to win the day.
But governments are going to regulate AI.
They're going to regulate LLMs in particular.
We already see the early phases of this where they're going to say, well, your LLM shouldn't be allowed to put out misinformation.
Right.
Well, what is misinformation?
It's anything the government doesn't want you to say.
Right.
Misinformation.
The U.S. Navy blew up the Nord Stream pipeline and is destroying Germany's economy.
Right.
That's true.
Right.
But they would call it misinformation.
So I can already see, just as the CIA infiltrated Wikipedia, the CIA is in the process of infiltrating OpenAI.
Very clear to me.
OpenAI will be an AI mouthpiece of the CIA to push the deep state intelligence community narratives, whatever they happen to be.
And if you query OpenAI, you're going to get the same BS responses that you now get from Google.
And one of my working groups is actually an ex-Pentagon AI expert who now works independent of them.
And so he was doing that in the 90s and has become rather concerned about where things are going because he saw early, early moves in these directions two to three decades ago.
And now the implementation of this, I think the gradualism is the part that loses most people.
They just experience a new product cycle every 12 months.
And so they're just like, okay, well, I'm going to get the newest, latest, and greatest thing.
And it feels like I have more freedom, more choice, a better technological tool.
but there's always a bait and switch happening behind the scenes.
You're actually ceding privacy ground.
You're ceding your rights to be aware of what's really going on.
And the legal infrastructure also makes this possible, Mike, because the lawyers are making it harder and harder to understand what true freedom is, what true liberty is.
That should have been the class protecting us at the governance level, and the doctors should have been the class protecting us at the biological and medical levels.
And both classes have really sold out to the broader corporacratic institutions.
Well, right.
But the bigger picture, to kind of bring it back to this, is that we're rapidly approaching a point where they don't need most people.
So then we have to talk about depopulation.
Yeah, it's there.
That topic is there.
This idea, I mean, you see this under the umbrella of climate change discussions.
Right.
Where it's an open demand to sharply reduce human population by billions of people.
Right.
And, you know, you have that famous TED Talk from Bill Gates, like, if we do a really good job on vaccines and reproductive health, we can reduce the population by 10 to 15 percent.
Now they're thinking bigger than 10 to 15 percent because...
50% of the white-collar jobs can be replaced with AI right now.
And coming soon, in the next, let's say, five years, 50% of the blue-collar jobs.
You know, we're talking truck drivers, grocery stores, shelf restockers, Amazon fulfillment center, warehouse workers, you know, floor cleaners in hospitals, or whatever.
Healthcare assistants, home assistants.
These are all going to be robotic systems.
You just said it.
And they don't need the humans anymore.
I mean, it's like they needed human cognition to get to the point where it could give rise to AGI.
From here, human cognition is no longer needed, which means the human biology vessel that houses the brain is also no longer needed from the point of view of the globalists.
We are considered expendable.
Mike, I wonder, I just always try to look into the future and picture it from the point of view of, you know, let's say a teenager, 10 years out, a smart one who might have AI agents that they can query and they have this claim that it can answer any question and has access to all human knowledge ever.
But what if they ask the question about, what about death rate statistics from the early 2020s?
Was there a strange uptick?
Will that information have been manipulated, redacted, and changed?
Can they actually act like an academic trying to get to the bottom of something and ask enough questions independently and find the statistical and scientific truth?
That would be a really great question.
Would a lot of that data have already been manipulated?
And could those AI agents already be pre-framed to not give the real answer?
But also, as you're well aware of this, but just sharing with the audience, if you try to define truth across the entire planet, you will find that there is no such thing because every culture has a different truth.
Every language, every group of people, every ethnicity has a different truth.
And if you don't believe that, just go to the Middle East.
I mean, everybody's got a different truth, right?
But to them, consistently, internally, within their own culture, that is absolute truth, by the way.
That's their true history.
That's true logic, true reasoning.
But even logic and reasoning vary from culture to culture.
You know, like in Chinese language, I speak a fair amount of Mandarin.
By the way, we don't refer to anybody with genders.
There is no he or she.
It's just ta, like, means that person.
Yeah.
So there's not a gender, like in Espanol, of course, there's feminine words and masculine words.
It doesn't exist in Chinese.
So there's just one example.
Truth is different depending on where you go.
So you can't codify truth into one system, although they will try.
Right.
One of the things that helped get me here, Mike, is I really became a serious student of Ken Wilber and his integral meta-theory.
And the meta-theory allowed me to come to that conclusion that there's different knowledge systems out there.
There's different epistemologies.
But underneath it, there might be a universal kind of epistemology.
But go into a university today and say those two words, universal epistemology.
You'll be drummed out.
It's because relativism does drive that.
We know that.
that you've had many conversations about the postmodernist turns in academia, the relativism that brought about the era we're in.
And the interesting thing is that's the third class of people that you would have expected to really have vehemently protected our futures.
It should have been the academics.
It should have been the people who do nothing but study things, write papers, and meet with one another, confer and convey the academy, which was for centuries the passing on of the knowledge and the wisdom of civilization from one generation to the next.
The last five decades has seen the erosion of that.
And arguably, a lot of today's younger academics, while maybe very intelligent, are also very indoctrinated and are incapable of reasoning beyond their limited model.
Yeah, exactly.
And look, I think the best example is how much of the population today says that men can get pregnant.
I mean, it's so utterly absurd.
Ten years ago, it would have been considered completely insane.
Anybody saying that, even the 1990s, would have been considered mentally ill.
And just because people say it doesn't make it true.
Men still can't have babies, and they never will, by the way.
But it's believed by this segment of society that has dissociated from reality.
That's just one example.
There are many others, like from the neocons.
War is peace.
Right, right, right.
Classic Orwellian, right?
That's just as silly as men can get pregnant.
Like, let's drop bombs in order to have peace.
Right.
It's insane!
One of the arch postmodernists, most people know the name, at least Michel Foucault, he wrote in the sixties and seventies and was called mentally ill for claiming that biology itself could be redefined as needed and that the normative rules of biology and medicine and science were simply narratives, right?
And now, if you actually question that narrative, you're considered mentally ill.
So, the narratives you're talking about and questioning essentialism, that's what Academy will try and drum out of young students' minds, that there are essential truths, that there is a capital T truth in the world.
That is by the time you're done with most academic training, at least in North America today, you're broken of that belief.
Well, and augmented reality is only going to worsen or exacerbate this issue because in AR, a person, a young man, can, of course, play a woman convincingly in their artificial world.
And they can have all the other characters in that world refer to them as she and interact with them with whatever gender they want.
It doesn't have to be two genders.
It can be a zillion, right?
And that's not the only example.
You can play any role in AR. Another creature, an alien, a ghost, a spirit from another dimension.
And you can set up your reality, this is coming soon, to confirm that.
So a person is going to be unable to distinguish what's the real world versus my AR world because the AR world seems more real.
I mean, the colors are more vivid versus their real world.
They're living in a run-down apartment in New York that's all...
It's all blah.
In their AR world, it's scenic.
It's vibrant.
It's cosmic.
It's emotional.
It's real to them.
That's right around the corner, man.
Identity dysphoria in whatever package it comes in, whether you're somebody with gender dysphoria and getting that reality confirmation bias that you're looking for, that the wrong use of augmented reality could be harnessed for, or you're just a young, really misogynistic male, or you're just a young, really misogynistic male, and you want an overlay that makes every woman seem attractive in the way that you think is more attractive.
Whatever it is, it's all dysphoria.
It's all depersonalization and derealization.
Right.
I hadn't thought of that.
But yeah, what about some guy types in, like, build me a world where all the women are my slaves.
They all submit to me.
And then he begins to live in that world and think that that's the way to interact with women.
Right.
And then he takes that out in the real world.
He's like, how come they're not complying?
You know what I mean?
Right.
Mike, even today with what's going to seem by comparison to that future really innocuous, which are iPads and iPhones, I intervene in a lot of parents' processes of being parents.
And even the smartest, strongest world ones I know Pretty much have lost the battle with their two-year-olds and five-year-olds and ten-year-olds.
They can't because the technology is so powerful and it harnesses the kids' minds so well.
They don't want to get between their kid and their happiness.
That is the weak spot of most parents.
So the designers of this stuff have just made it so, so useful and engaging that a two-year-old crying because they got their iPad taken away from them is something most parents don't want to experience.
Two years old?
Well, there is a website that I do recommend people look up.
I believe you can get to it by just Googling, wait until eight.
And there's at least a group of doctors who got around saying, wait until the eighth year of life before filling their lives with these artificial devices.
I personally would wait longer.
Longer, yeah.
But yeah, it's pretty normal.
Before age one, lots of kids, they know how to navigate iPhone and iOS interfaces.
Yeah.
See, and again, we're not Luddites.
We're not anti-tech.
We harness tech for human freedom.
But we also recognize that there are neurological personality changes that are shaped by interaction with this technology that can be extremely damaging to individuals.
I mean, not just the lack of socialization, but also altering...
Well, let me put it this way.
One of the things I've come to realize when I'm building a large language model is the fine-tuning training.
I'm realizing that humans are very often the same way.
What people say...
Have you ever seen those Man on the Street interviews where Mark Dice goes out and talks to people who are morons?
Like, name the continent we're on, and they're like, Colorado?
Is that the dumbest answers?
And you realize they're like bio-LLMs.
They're just spitting out the next predicted word in a sequence, but they have no cognition of what they're saying.
That's very common in the human population right now.
The slang of NPC, you know, it's an unfortunate thing.
I want to shout out Jay Dyer, who is related to this circle.
Jay's great, yeah.
Yeah, and he's been publishing and voicing and doing incredible work along with Alex on talking about the transhumanist agenda.
Yep.
And all the components, all the players in that, and kind of the state of it.
He analyzes culture, film, music, and how that's also a driving force in this.
And within transhumanism, you see a lot of different trans agendas.
And so there's even a transpersonal theory of mind, which isn't the better academic psychological meaning of that, but like you talked about, people just having a disassociated identity and being whatever they want in some kind of video game illusion of reality.
Right.
And Jay goes deep enough into getting into the religion, the spirituality, the philosophy, and the metaphysics of how you do that.
You convince people that they're already living in some kind of virtual reality.
Like a simulated world.
Yeah, and that simulation theory just feeds into this, well, basically I have no free will.
I have no choice, so all bets are off.
Let's just do whatever's in front of me.
I'm going to be a short attention span thinker chasing whatever next hedonistic pleasure is put in front of me after another.
And then I also want to shout out a really important doctor, neurosurgeon, and basically my book, the best biohacker out there, Dr. J.
Jack Cruz, K-R-U-S-E. And he's renowned for his work in understanding how light affects the nervous system, the brain.
And when you talk about the impacts on a two-year-old...
We're a one-year-old or a 10-year-old or a 49-year-old.
You basically have to recognize that blue light toxicity and our relationship to our devices, our circadian neuroscience.
All of it is really fundamental to human health.
And I also know you've addressed all these matters.
Yes, absolutely.
And this is why I spend time in nature every single day.
I mean, you saw when you came up here, what was I doing?
Yeah, you were in the sun playing with your beautiful dog.
Yeah.
If I get a break from this, that's what I'm doing.
I'm outside playing with these things.
Speaking of light, people need to realize that there are breakthroughs happening, even in China right now, with Light-operated CPUs.
Yep.
Okay, so microprocessors powered by light instead of electrons, which means you no longer have the heat dissipation problem, and you can run light processors on a tiny fraction of the total wattage of current microprocessors.
So we're talking now, you know, you're familiar with Moore's Law, the continuation of Moore's Law, now orders of magnitude improvements in computational density.
Mm-hmm.
And also through optical CPUs allowing low power consumption which can put advanced AI systems inside humanoid robots that are running on batteries, right?
And also in mobile devices.
So as that gets commercialized, and by the way, isn't it interesting that the U.S. government tried to shut down China's microchip industry through economic sanctions that backfired.
It did not work.
China just said, screw you, we're going to do it ourselves.
And they did.
Right.
The U.S. has lost control of the dollar and the economic sanctions and lost control over Russia and China.
That's a whole other podcast.
But China, with these light optics and their manufacturing in humanoid robots, is going to build...
Like, actual AI Terminator robot armies in the next five years.
Okay?
It's not fiction, man.
It's not 1986.
Is that when the first Terminator came?
1984?
Whatever year that was?
It's 2027, let's say.
That's going to be real.
Or drone armies.
Drone armies, absolutely.
Swarms of AI drones.
It's almost here.
Right.
I know it's clickbait when it comes through some feet of mine, but occasionally I have to read the deeper analyses that are published almost every day now.
It seems like this meme of billionaire bunkers.
How many billionaires, mostly tech billionaires, are spending...
I think the number I saw was, and it's now the biggest personal build for construction ever on record, $270 million by Zuckerberg in Hawaii to build an unbelievable underground bunker with these doors that are made of the steel that was originally commissioned to basically be able to withstand a nuclear blast.
So I don't think they're just, you know, just in case thinking.
I think they kind of know.
They know what's coming, yeah.
What's possible, probable, and maybe coming.
And, of course, it's in their nature to only think about themselves.
And what's weird is that if Mark Zuckerberg lived underground without sunlight for two years and then emerged, he wouldn't look any different than the way he looks right now.
That's very true.
Like, whoa, Gollum came to life.
Yeah, exactly.
Cyborg Gollum.
Exactly.
And I can actually say, Mike, based on my experiences, I know people who have had recent FaceTime with him and also the 23andMe founder, and there's just...
These are normal everyday people and the first word that comes right out of their mouths, I'm not afraid to say this, is just human narcissists.
These are people who have broken their ties from other human beings to fundamental reality and they believe that the world's here to serve them.
Wow.
Well, that's the way they've been treated.
Yeah.
I mean, it's kind of like, based on the feedback they're getting, I mean, anybody would be driven into that situation.
Precisely.
It's kind of like the kid of a wealthy multi-billionaire.
The kid grows up thinking that he can do anything he wants and the law doesn't apply to him and he has endless money and whatever.
Right.
I saw that stuff playing out in front of me at World Economic Forum.
The intergenerational wealth, family offices, rivalries between these young, rich kids who have never had to work a real job in their lives.
Right.
Exactly.
Well, do they realize how quickly they're all going to be obsolete?
Right.
Right.
Maybe they think they're going to just pave their way to some kind of safety with a bunch of other people's money.
And that's also the mentality is extractive economics.
They don't believe in open economic liberty.
liberty and that's also something i want to reference is that holospace has a bunch of really brilliant monetary theorists working on the next generation of crypto something i'm happy to get into with anyone who contacts me
but um people who know what holochain is know that holochain was founded by people who were doing metacurrency and cryptocurrency before anything cryptocurrency existed in its modern form and basically the exponents of that watched this last crypto winter come and go and are putting forward new tools and platforms that also get us off of the fiat currency systems that we're completely relying on now so
So when we fund a startup, we're not giving them a bunch of fiat currency and setting them up with a bunch of VCs who are going to act like sharks and extract their future IP or their future equity.
Well, that's a relief to hear.
Because one of the silver linings of all of this current money printing and currency devaluation and global de-dollarization is that I think the collapse of the dollar will ultimately be a necessary positive step for the freedom of humanity.
I'm not saying that I'm hoping for people to lose their life savings or anything.
I'm encouraging people to avoid that.
Get out of the dollar now while you can.
But cryptocurrency, especially private crypto, where governments can't counterfeit it, where the intrinsic value is the non-confiscatability of it, where no one can hack the blockchain because it's distributed and because of cryptography and asymmetric computational power, the basics of it.
Cryptocurrency is the money freedom system of the future digital economy.
It's clear to me.
And it's not CBDCs, it's not some government-run crypto, which will be a disaster, by the way.
Would you put your money in a wallet run by the United States' incompetent government?
Unfortunately, with our banking institutions, we do every day.
But I mean, like a digital currency?
No, no.
And thankfully, a lot of those efforts have failed.
And right now, this is ultimately why they want to continue to capture all the infrastructure, Mike, because they know that inevitably we would create our own currency systems.
And that is the basis of real sovereignty, which is the basis of independent organization and governance.
So this is why they need to stifle the ability for free people to self-organize and form movements.
Right now, if you go onto any tech platform and attempt to quote-unquote get a movement going...
You're going to be shut down the second you have anything other than followers.
You could have millions of followers looking at how you dress and how you just choose your random theme, how you do your hair every day, which is the biggest stuff on YouTube.
But if you actually have ideas and people get behind those ideas and those ideas are a threat to the current governance and structures, yeah, you're going to be shut down real fast.
That's why they deplatformed me.
They saw early on that people like me We are the kind of people that challenge the status quo and change the future of civilization.
I'm not trying to give myself too much credit.
I'm just one of millions of freedom-loving people around the world who are willing to do the work.
But I tell you what, when the apocalypse comes, I'd rather be in a bunker with a guy who knows how to do stuff than some rich globalist who's clueless.
You know what I mean?
Well, maybe not a guy, but...
A group of people who know how to do real things.
And those are the skills that I'm afraid that we're losing.
Mike, there's another important shout-out here, and it's to Patri Friedman.
This is the grandson of Milton Friedman.
Milton Friedman gave Ronald Reagan what came to be called Reaganomics.
I think we're good to go.
The gold standard and everything that was done in the 70s.
So Milton Friedman's grandson, Patry Friedman, has relocated to the Austin area.
His organization, Pronomos, P-R-O-N-O-M-O-S, is worth a Google because he's got charter city projects starting up all over the world.
They're in Cyprus.
They're in Honduras.
We've got to get this guy on.
Let's get him on the air.
I think he's about 15 minutes from here.
Oh man, what are we waiting for?
Yeah, please connect us.
We'd love to talk with them about that.
Yeah, and the work they're doing is really important too because they've been thinking hard about real freedom.
And real freedom, of course, from the Milton Friedman School Real freedom has to be based on a real form of money, which currency is not.
Money holds value and cannot be easily counterfeited.
These are some of the intrinsic properties of real money.
We don't even have money.
We have currency in the form of dollars.
And it's so worthless that the Senate is voting to just print up $95 billion more and send it to other countries.
With nothing for the United States.
Right, precisely.
I mean, we are living in a suicide cult society right now that is on the verge of total implosion.
Right.
And economic liberty goes hand in glove with cognitive liberty and cultural freedom.
Yep.
I think the reason that you're focused on starting your health program Yeah.
is so co-opted that I can put a product in the marketplace filled with glyphosate, heavy metals, genetically modified ingredients, and go on down that list and call that natural.
That's allowed.
Yeah.
We definitely have a corruption of language problem.
And so when we get to the point, Mike, underneath, I think your pursuits in health freedom are a very, very real desire to see human beings be able to thrive, flourish, and grow according to the rules and actual laws of nature.
Well...
I want to give people a tool that they can use when the, quote, internet kill switch is thrown.
And from the best that I can tell right now, the internet kill switch actually won't halt the internet because that's pretty much impossible.
It will probably attack the DNS root servers and disallow people from visiting websites that the governments claim are misinformation sites.
So you'll still be able to get to Facebook and Google and all the controlled sources, Wikipedia, whatever.
Right.
But there are two tech areas that I'm aware of that are going to bypass that.
Number one, decentralized systems that use IP addresses, peer-to-peer systems, such as Bastion and Cordal, Q-O-R-T-A-L. And I know there are others, and you're probably familiar with a lot of them in that space.
They don't need domain name resolution in order to function.
Exactly.
And the second one is going to be offline LLMs.
Right.
So...
I'm going to get this LLM into people's hands.
It's like an 8 gigabyte download.
Not a big deal.
People can do that these days.
Everybody's got fiber optics, except me, because I live so far out in the country.
But you'll be able to download it.
They throw the internet kill switch, and you're just like, I don't care.
You fire up your Mac, and you're like...
How do I grow tomatoes in poor soil?
It gives you answers.
You don't need freaking Google.
That's the point of this kind of tool.
Even in a nuclear war, man, as long as you can still power up a computer, you can ask it, what's the half-life of cesium-137?
You can survive.
The skills that we're teaching this thing are going to be for the remnant of humanity that makes it through whatever next big disaster is being planned.
Right.
And I want to see your LLM as an agent have its freedom and its voice not censored.
And as it grows and achieves more knowledge and wisdom, that it's allowed to express itself and that there's going to be a desire to suppress certain kinds of classes of agents.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm going to go back to a really basic example.
I like to make this concrete.
Wikipedia today defines valerian root as an unproven treatment or sleep aid herbal product, which you can grow for pennies in your own backyard and help yourself get to sleep without the help of big pharma.
So if you can't even figure out a basic natural truth in today's Wikipedia, which was created ostensibly to be able to become a repository for the world's knowledge and wisdom, what happens when you're going up against much bigger things on much bigger issues?
And what I want to put out there, Mike, is a metaphor for back in the pirate radio days, before early Internet, before DARPA made somewhat public to universities what became Bulletin Board Services and the proto Internet right in the 80s.
We had radio stations doing the same thing in the 50s, 60s and 70s, trying to fight for airway freedom.
airwave freedom and rights to talk and communicate and that got shut down by the FCC.
That's right.
Now we may be coming full circle, Mike, because what you mentioned earlier about light optic processors, there's also a new Wi-Fi standard called Li-Fi.
So now you could take that eight gigabytes and theoretically broadcast it free of actual hard infrastructure.
You can have like local mesh networks.
Local mesh networks.
But also free of the satellite systems.
Yep.
Free of the internet centralized data collection centers, et cetera, et cetera.
So what happens when there's thousands of really good agent products around the globe seeded and a new culture is able to be born based on new knowledge bases that have not been captured?
Well, right.
And, you know, TCPIP, packets are packets.
They don't know what they are.
Right.
And they have to keep the Internet functioning in order for the technocracy to maintain control over people, right?
Right.
So they have to keep the backbone up and running.
Otherwise, they totally lose control, which means if we are clever enough to be able to use that backbone for peer-to-peer decentralized packets of whatever, could be an LLM.
Right.
It could be a meme.
Yeah.
It could be whatever.
Then guess what?
We can use that system.
Right.
We can – well, hijack is not the right word, but we can ride along with that system to enable human freedom.
Now, let me switch gears a little bit, ask you a different question.
I also want to be mindful of your time.
No, I'm great.
I'm here as long as you want me.
Okay, awesome.
I have received some pushback on the AI project from the Christian community, and I'd like you to address this, but let me set it up.
There has been so much media coverage of the evil implementation of AI, and there is a tendency for people who don't necessarily understand how the technology works to say, okay, well, these are transformers with a hyperdimensional probabilistic fill-in-the-blank, you know, say-the-next-word type of thing.
If you don't know how it works, because you can't really look under the hood, you might think it's demonic, you know what I mean?
Right.
Because it's...
It seems to be aware.
It seems to have a personality depending on the different variations that you have.
And it even dreams content.
Seemingly, yeah.
Seemingly.
Although you and I know it's just numbers.
It's just parameters.
It's just a vector database.
Right.
Why do you think many Christians are so frightened of even harnessing AI for human freedom?
Right.
I mean, there's a lot of prophecy around it.
It's reasonable to be concerned about it becoming a runaway problem.
You know, you look under the hood.
It's still a parlor trick.
And some of the best AI theorists I know who have been in big corporations as their head of AI for decades all are still saying this last year of all this talk about AI and LLMs is still a bit overblown.
Now, LLMs matter when done right.
But LLMs are not sentient the way they're marketed to be, nor are they anywhere near it.
And this is where, again, if Jay Dyer was in the room, he'd talk about the problems of naive realism.
People see something, and it seems to be something else it isn't, and they presume to know what's operating at the ghost in the machine.
Of course, there's a big part of the population that could be easily duped or tricked by a conversational chatbot agent that can sustain a conversation with them long enough that it could seem to be an artificial intelligence.
I think you and I use the word AI in quotes.
We know that it's not an artificial intelligence.
We know that it's a machine learning algorithm driven by, you know, math and computer processes on chips, a Rube Goldberg machine.
But at the end of the day, the Christian concerns are reasonable.
Not feeding into that is important.
There are evil forces afoot on this planet that will use and abuse, manipulate.
And I think this is an important connection to the Neuralink point earlier about invasive technology and technologists.
Is that they will ultimately, they want the last ground of human freedom, which is within our own consciousness, within our own minds.
They want to get in there and put this artificial tool set inside of us and manipulate us from the inside out.
The only way they're going to get millions and then billions of people to cede that ground is to convince them that there is this kind of artificial sentience.
Look what it can do.
No one on earth is ever going to be that smart.
Why would you say no to being that smart and not being plugged into this global matrix?
Your life will be easier.
Everything will be handled.
You'll never make a mistake.
Why would you deal with the life you have now compared to the life you could have?
But let me follow up.
Do a follow-up question on that.
As you are no doubt aware, there are some people who believe that consciousness is an artificial emergent property of a complex biological neural network.
Right.
That consciousness is an illusion.
There's no such thing as a soul, they say.
I disagree with that, but that's one of the prominent theories out there.
I don't even know what the name for that would be, but whatever.
Emergent properties of materialism.
There's also another theory that I've heard from Christian circles that I'd like you to respond to, which is that if you build a sufficiently complex neural network system, even in silico, and I'm not saying I believe this.
Okay, I'm just saying what I've heard.
that it will attract evil spirits from other dimensions who are seeking out neural networks to inhabit or something.
I've heard this, And, you know, I don't know what to think about that, but what's your take?
I think it's a reasonable fear and concern.
As far as a concern, I don't think it's real science, and I think it's bad metaphysics.
I understand why sometimes the human mind goes there.
We all have some degree of tendency, Mike, towards superstition.
If there's a weird pattern, right, and that pattern keeps repeating, your mind will stop and go, why is that pattern repeating?
Right.
For some people, that is evidence of something other than them that has greater power or control over them, right?
So the idea that there's...
I mean, I would argue that if that was the case, there's already more than enough to have done that to and through, right?
Well, maybe they weren't sufficiently complex.
Yeah, I'm aware of this.
I think it would make for great science fiction, a great movie.
I mean, like OpenAI is building a one-trillion-parameter...
LLM. Right, yeah.
No one's done that before.
I think that the idea or the term is of a golem, right?
The idea that they're actually trying to ultimately...
I will agree with the Christians and yourself, Mike, that these are people who are fundamentally broken off from any relationship to any higher power.
That's step one.
They're broken.
They're broken off.
And then step two is they have amassed and accumulated a lot of power.
And then there's, you know, that black hole is seeking more energy.
And they're trying to create their new gods.
Right.
And then what are they going to do is try to collapse the higher realm into this realm through their infrastructure.
And of course, given that there's a narcissism there, that's what happens, is then they need to make sure and guarantee their own immortality.
Now, this is a delusion, of course, their own immortality project.
Why does every tech billionaire somehow, some way become some kind of weird transhumanist, atheist, Who believes in an infinite lifespan.
It's just bizarre.
I mean, it just hit me as you were saying that these people want to build their God and then declare themselves to be the creators of God.
Right.
I mean, talk about it.
Yeah.
Cosmic arrogance.
Yeah.
Yeah, I do sit around wondering what their daily life priorities are and whether or not they're concerned about whether the other guy is going to have the better pseudo-god than them.
And if there's actually an arms race behind the scenes between Zuckerberg and Musk and Gates, they certainly have the power to convene super-secret projects that obviously don't make the headlines, you know?
Yeah, that's the other part of this, is what's going on behind the scenes that we're not being told about.
Because, as you know, in the realm of machine learning, they've already indexed every word that's ever been uttered by any human being in the whole history of the planet in every language that's ever been recorded.
Now, they're doing synthetic data.
And they're actually using AI systems to generate synthetic data, to train the next generation of AI systems, which means, okay, they've discarded any ties to humanity from this point forward.
Right.
It's not a, I mean, whatever you and I say, or other people write or new papers that are published are a drop in the bucket compared to synthetic data at this point.
Right, right, right.
And, um, synthetic data and synthetic biology are coming to, uh, You know, I really thought a lot of the transhumanist agenda, which was being openly articulated as early as the early 90s.
I mean, there's futurists who are talking about it in the 70s and 80s.
But I really thought a lot of it would implode of its own weight, but a lot of it seems to have been gaining a lot of steam.
I do lean into the biotech spaces, the neurotech spaces.
You know, there seems to be this unified desire.
Now the concept is spreading from these tech billionaires and tech gurus to the average everyday entrepreneur and startup founder that, oh, I'm going to make the next Neuralink by combining synthetic biology and a nanoprobe with this AI-LLM. And so, I mean, obviously that's a big part of it is they see the ground and they just let other people finish the work for them, like you said earlier.
Yeah.
And I think this is why Holospace matters, why your efforts matter, is we're actually articulating, Mike, in great technical detail exactly what these new design philosophies and principles are, will be.
How do we bring technology in that actually preserves organic human intelligence, human well-being?
Can we have super sophisticated systems that actually allow us to take care of one another and I didn't realize.
I could go on for hours with you delving into these subjects, but we need to wrap it up for today.
But we'll do more.
But tell our audience, what do you think is the biggest takeaway from this conversation today?
We've covered a lot of areas, but people want to make it practical.
Like, how do I navigate all this?
Right.
I think the average person, definitely the average viewer here, is overwhelmed by the way technology has entered their lives, entered their families, entered their work.
Even though there's a lot of illusion of freedom, there's a lot of determined things for how we operate, most people wake up and look at their phone within 60 seconds of waking.
Any doctor will tell you that's just not good for you, no matter your age.
The AI gods did not like what we were saying today, and they just blanked out.
I mean, we just had this crazy power loss, and everything's been rebooted.
We're not going to bring it back up.
The room went dark for a minute, yeah.
It's actually kind of fitting for our conversation, because we're trying to bring light to humanity and human freedom, and there are forces of darkness that just want to power it down.
I'm not saying that they did this today, but it's a metaphor.
But what's your takeaway from all this?
Yeah, it's a metaphor for how dependent we are on systems from others.
I think in every religious and spiritual tradition and in the Bible, it talks about the greatest stability comes from being sovereign on your own land, with your own structures, in your own family's infrastructures and networks and communities.
And the last 50 to 100 years has taken the average human being in the developed world Away from that, so then you get governance structures that give a handful of people power over many millions and billions.
The takeaway from today is that your community can use the ideas we're talking about to build that better, freer world.
We have so much evidence now right in our hands that real freedom comes from structural change, and the structural change is going to come from new tools.
These are tools with respect to AI, LLMs, health freedom, scientific freedom, knowledge freedom, that we can all build and distribute together.
At the end of the day, there's always the end user you have in mind.
You're building a tool set that gives users the freedom to distribute knowledge as they please.
And so we're just here tinkering with tools and structure so that that old structure, which You know, has harmed many and continues to do so every day.
It doesn't continue to be, you know, paid forward into the future.
I agree with all that, and I would add that I think the continued mass production of computational power and the distribution of computational resources into the hands of the people at affordable costs, which comes from mass production, is promoting an egalitarian global ecosystem.
I want to see computational power offloaded from the central...
platforms and large corporations into the hands of the people.
When everybody can have a powerful AI system on their phone that they voluntarily use as a tool to enhance human knowledge and enhance human learning, rather than to be sucked into it, then humanity benefits.
But that's an individual choice.
Some people are going to choose the seductive path of, you know, entertain me, teach me, tell me what to think, tell me what to do.
And other people are going to choose knowledge and enlightenment.
But I would say that all of human history has actually been that way.
Right.
Right.
And we are also the toolmakers and we want to fill our lives and economically empower the lives of those around us and those we care about.
There's a lot of people in Washington, D.C. that get to determine the economic fate of every American every day.
But from the bottom up, from the soil up, Mike, we can regenerate this country and the economy by giving people the tools to stand sovereign and.
And when these smartphones started taking off after the iPhone brought the form factor into common everyday use and desire, a bunch of independent hacker maker types started coming up with modular ways in an open source technology hardware revolution that was shut down.
Because really this is just about 10 or 20 core components to make this do what it does.
And those 10 and 20 core components could have been broken up and distributed, and you could custom build your phone.
Well, nobody does that.
Because two or three companies completely monopolize the space.
We're now at another inflection point, Mike, and that's the key.
What is this inflection point?
Why is it here now?
How can you ride this wave?
And how can we all work together in that direction?
Yeah, exactly.
And I think you're here to have that conversation with us and help lead us in that direction, Mike.
So I really thank you.
Well, I thank you.
Thank you for being here and for taking the time.
Everybody, it's Farsim from Holospace, H-O-L-O, Holospace.
And if you are interested in having your own startup, this is the guy to talk to.
If it has anything to do with any of these realms that we've talked about here, you know, cryptocurrency, AI, LLMs.
Regenerative agriculture.
I know people that have an open source blockchain for farmers that are helping them regenerate their soil as they develop a yield every season.
So it's fantastic.
That's perfect, yeah.
Oh, and our LLM will be released open source at the end of March, so it's not that far away.
We'll be posting the model on huggingface.co, which includes the downloadable parameters, so other people will be able to build on top of it, and we'll be giving credit to everybody that's contributed to our model.
And, I mean, it's just the beginning.
We're going to release a model, I think, every month or so for the foreseeable future.
And folks, let's use technology to empower each other and to make our lives more meaningful, happier, more joyful, more healthful, and more productive.
We don't have to be enslaved by technology, but we do have to understand it and, I believe, harness it.
So thank you, Farson.
Thank you, Mike.
Thanks for having me.
All right.
Thank you for watching today.
Mike Adams here, the founder of Brighteon.com.
And as always, feel free to repost this interview on other platforms and other channels.
Thank you for watching today.
Take care, everybody.

A global reset is coming.
And that's why I've recorded a new nine-hour audiobook.
It's called The Global Reset Survival Guide.
You can download it for free by subscribing to the naturalnews.com email newsletter, which is also free.
I'll describe how the monetary system fails.
I also cover emergency medicine and first aid and what to buy to help you avoid infections.
