“The Empire of Scientism will constitute governance of the machine, by the machine, for the machine.”
~ James Tunney
In the Tunney quote above, ‘Scientism’ is equivalent to what is now called technocracy. When I mention the term technocracy in normal conversation, with whom I consider somewhat normal people, people existing in most every aspect of life, I generally get blank stares and expressionless looks of confusion. Considering that most of the entire world is openly heading into a globalized state of ‘scientific’ technological control over all populations, why is the idea of machines, transhumanism, technocracy, and artificial Intelligence, (AI) controlling everything, so foreign to the average and not so average human?

What is technocracy? The basis of technocracy is for a select few (supposed ‘experts’) to control every resource, including every asset, every property, every life need, every transaction, the entirety of the monetary system; basically everything on earth down to every dimension of the individual. In order to accomplish this takeover of humanity and its existence, and to tokenize every living and non-living resource, AI and digital identification of all of humanity is necessary, and therefore is the major linchpin of a technocratic system. The digitization and data collection of everything if accomplished, especially including all information about each and every individual, will also be completely programable, which means that third party control over your life and all your currency use, can be turned off or on in an instant, in real time, depending on the use desired. The risk of this is immense, so acceptance of total digitization and AI is in essence the final straw of enslavement. Disallowance and non-compliance of acceptance of digital ID and digital monetary control by large numbers of individuals, will stop this totalitarian madness, but without that resistance, the long-planned plot of global technocratic rule will go forward at an accelerated pace.
Many of you, no, likely most all of you, expect someone else to protect you, to look after you, and to make sure that you have all that you need to sustain your life in what you falsely believe to be a ‘free’ country. Most of you wish for and expect a savior to appear, probably in the form of another politician or religious apparition. You may vote, expecting a new ‘leader’ to stop this onslaught of humanity, you may even hold up a sign with your collective herd expecting the ruling class to stand down, as if petitioning (begging) your slave-master will set you free, or will accomplish anything of value. This idiotic nonsense, this reliance on rulers, this expectation that this heinous system will protect you, is literally asinine. Pathetic apathy at this level is nothing more than a recipe for the immediate takeover of your lives by the very tyrants you petition to save you.
As an aside, it is necessary to explain how this population became so submissive, dependent, and non-responsible for their very own lives. One might examine our past, and realize what was voluntarily allowed to take place in plain sight. This was identified by none other than Bertrand Russell in “The Impact of Science on Society,” written in 1953, based upon the much earlier thoughts of Johann Fichte.
“It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fichte laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. But in his day this was an unattainable ideal: what he regarded as the best system in existence produced Karl Marx. In future such failures are not likely to occur where there is dictatorship.
Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so.”
Yes of course, a dumbed-down society is easy to control, and this American society has been brainwashed, fully indoctrinated, emasculated, lied to, and propagandized almost since birth; this a direct and intentional act meant only to create ignorant and weak followers who have become obedient nationalists. One has to go no further than this to understand the reason this population has succumbed so easily to despotic rule and dependence on false authority. This is what is demanded and taught in prison systems called ‘public’ (government) schools. What this has led to over time is a society that seeks rulers and ‘leaders,’ politicians in other words, all those who would only accept those positions in order to lord over and control others.
This was rather easy to bring about, because relying on others in a system of false ‘authority’ means not having to take responsibility for self. Hence, universal income, universal ‘healthcare,’ universal retirement, universal collective ignorance, and universal worship of State.
‘Science’ it seems has been a ruse, and used as a tool of deception against the very people who have been taught to worship and ‘trust’ the ‘science.’ Look at what ‘science’ has brought us? Advanced warfare to slaughter populations at will, modern medicine, ‘vaccines,’ pharmaceuticals, germ theory, fake pandemics, bioweapons, transhumanism, and AI. ‘Science’ is seen and believed to be the way forward to a much more progressive, modern, and ‘sustainable’ world, but of course the opposite has occurred, as ‘science’ has been the mainstay of building a technocratic prison.
The people in America, and the rest of the world as well, are now the enemy of the State, as ‘war’ has been relegated and targeted against domestic populations. ‘War’ is not any longer about fighting monsters from afar, but is about depopulation and transformation of resident citizens by governments so that technological control of psychologically destroyed populations can go forward with little resistance. AI is the backbone of this effort to create this new world order.
With AI, robotics, transhuman manipulation, digital ID, ubiquitous digitization, and a fully automated control grid, will come rule by computer. What this accomplishes for the governing class is full immunity from scrutiny and prosecution, as machines cannot be blamed or charged with crime, sued, or jailed for the coming economic and tyrannical Armageddon. Just as politicians have exempted big pharma, and other fascist players from liability, governments will be held harmless for the terror and devastation they have caused once they transfer power to the hidden technocrats who arbitrarily rule over society.
Scientism, technocracy, and universal scientific management of people will take over and greatly impact all our public and private lives. Actually this is already in place around the world. The era of technocracy is upon us, and this can only lead to gross depopulation, mass restrictive policies, and a concentration camp environment, as the war against the world advances to the new paradigm of total control madness
The solution of course lies with the people, as we far outnumber our evil adversaries, but it can only be stopped by individuals, and individuals en masse, as no collective mob of non-thinkers who expect to use this heinous system to police itself will accomplish anything of worth. Voting with any expectation of finding a savior or ‘leader’ is completely asinine, and can only cause enormous harm to all. The abolishment of government, or at the very least, the elimination of all government power, is necessary for any return to sanity and freedom, and this can only occur with mass non-compliance of all harmful government mandates.
Accept this system of total control called technocracy, or abandon any and every aspect of totalitarian rule. The choice is yours, each and every one of you, as individuals.
“It is hard to determine whether the brazen brashness of the bureaucrats or toxic passivity of the public has been more shocking.”
