The price of our subconscious submission to systems of control is our identity and the payment is past due. Here’s a cold hard reality of where we stand as a collective. AI is forcing many things right now and the violence against human labor and the ensuing economic destruction

The cry against the machine is not a cry to preserve the past or avoid the advancement of our civilization. The cry is one of anguish at all that we have lost and what faces decimation at the hands of an economic system never meant to preserve what makes living

A conversation keeps finding me– with friends, colleagues, neighbors and strangers– and when that happens, I know a societal trend has moved beyond media talking points and into reality.

Our institutions are crumbling. Our systems are appropriated by open criminals and blatant extractors. Our national, political and corporate power structures are protecting money launderers, pedophiles and human traffickers— by design— and at scale. And no one is immune.
