Read_812 – Congress is Criminalizing Privacy

“We know the law is unconstitutional.
FinCEN knows the law is unconstitutional.
FinCEN knows we know the law is unconstitutional.
And yet we’re supposed to pretend like nothing happened and comply with an illegal law.”
~ Jameson Lopp

What do we do when a regulatory agency continues to enforce an illegal law against a judicial verdict? Jameson Lopp explores the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), revealing how it mandates extensive reporting to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, compromising individual privacy and security under the guise of legal compliance. How does this act, despite being challenged for its constitutionality, reflect broader tensions between privacy rights and government surveillance in the digital age?

Read_811 – Speaking Freely

"You have to decide how to move forward. You have to decide what game you want to play; how much responsibility you are willing to shoulder. Do you want to stay stuck in the machine? A machine that uses and abuses you? A machine that feeds itself by extracting and devouring your time, attention, and value? Or do…

Guy’s Take_082 – Fiat Replacement Theory

Fiat money has a collection of malincentives and consequences for the degrading and rotting of society. As we covered in the first part of this series, it leads to mindless consumerism and a more materialist culture. As we continue, I want to cover something else that it does by stealing the value of our savings…

Read_810 – Censorship in America

"The mechanisms enforcing this modern censorship are not confined to private sectors or individual platforms but are significantly directed and influenced by the U.S. government itself. This intertwining of state powers with censorship activities marks a troubling departure from traditional American values, where free speech has been held sacred." ~ Dr. Joseph Mercola The troubling…

Ai Read_005 – Here Lies the Internet, Murdered By Generative Ai

“All around the nation there are toddlers plunked down in front of iPads being subjected to synthetic runoff, deprived of human contact _even in the media they consume. There’s no other word but dystopian.”
~ Mike Hoel

What happens when the internet is so overrun with awful ai generated content, that it becomes too overwhelming to even find anything of value? And this is happening now, not in the future. What happens to a generation of toddlers who are watching incoherent, plotless, inhuman videos over and over again that are completely ai generated from beginning to end and are devoid of human meaning or depth of any kind? Millions of views on these videos poison the minds of kids all over the country while parents have no idea what the content actually is. Are we headed into a dystopia, and experiment with the minds of our children? And what on earth could we do to fix this? Find out in today’s episode of Ai Unchained.

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can’t be any large-scale revolution until there’s a personal revolution, on an individual level. It’s got to happen inside first.”
~ Jim Morrison

I’m domiciled here, they have the ability to fine and tax and sanction and imprison me for wrong think. That’s a way more clear and present danger.”
