True personal growth ultimately will lead to fulfillment, and it's my intention with these podcasts to connect more deeply with you. Thank you for joining me and Corbin and my guests, and welcome to this episode.
I was listening recently to a lecture on bit shoot, where the speaker Melissa who is the, former partner or widow of the late Alan Watt, that is not the philosopher Alan Watts, but the Canadian author and presenter who is associated with a a podcast series called cutting through the matrix. Now he died unexpectedly in 2021, but he's left behind a very substantial archive of information.
Mainly his reflections on what was happening in the world, and he started talking about this early in the 2000 as far as I'm aware. And he was concerned about the influence of secret societies and the global cabal and also what the future might hold in store. So he wrote a number of books, and apparently in many cases, these were published under a pseudonym. And Melissa quotes from the opening chapter of one of them. And his comment on current times runs like this, this is not a rehearsal.
This is the final phase of humanity as we know it. And if you find this shocking, go back to your television and continue your programming. Alan maintained that TV was full of sport to keep the men happy and soap operas to keep the ladies happy. One of the signs of the end times is the rebuilding of Solomon's temple. And Alan Watts says that at the highest level, this in fact means the physical rebuilding of man. The future that Alan was concerned about is, well, pretty well here.
Progress, if that's the word for it, has speeded up to a frightening rate. And the effect of AI on practically everything is very, very visible, and it's having an almost unquantifiable effect on everybody's life. Now I'm not speaking only about softwares like ChatPT and Jasper and Claude, which are making some people's lives remarkably easier, but proving a massive threat to many people in certain industries.
Here's a question, are you aware of Aladdin, which is a trading computer used by BlackRock in particular, but I think it rents out to traders in, many other businesses? This has been described as more powerful than traditional politics. Interesting connection there. And Aladdin has influenced the value of vast swathes of the world's financial assets. Aladdin is a clever acronym that they came up with after the computer had been invented.
Larry Fink has something to do with the, the incarnation of this behemoth of a machine, because he lost his job. There was a scandal similar to the rather more famous Nick Leeson one. I remember the Nick Leeson thing happening, that was in 1999 I think, and he brought down Bearings Bank. So I think for that reason, the Nick Leeson affair was a lot more, known to the public, and, of course, they made a film about it as well. It was very entertaining.
Anyway, Aladdin stands for asset, liability, and debt derivative investment network. So operating with a competitor like that, what chance does the average little, hobby trader have to win anything? And what about those bots that seem to be replacing staff right left and center? No website seems complete these days without a chatbot. I hate them personally, but many people love them. And that's not all these bots do.
They operate they operate profiles apparently on social media and people think that these profiles belong to real people. And the bots do a lot of the liking and commenting that we see and of course this affects algorithms. So remember, they're in competition with real people. And also, the bots are deeply involved in electoral frauds, and these are now acknowledged as being, well, pretty well out of control.
I don't think they use that terminology, but, again, the powers that shouldn't be don't seem to know how to manage this attack of the software. So Alan Watt was concerned about the end of the individual and the end of individual thought, the collective or hive mind also known as the Borg mind. I talked about this last year with reference to Star Trek and Captain Picard. If ever a TV series, oh, the original one and the spin offs of which there were at least half a dozen, Wow.
Predictive programming and also all those James Bond films, they're full of predictive programming, which I don't think I've discussed before in terms of James Bond. But, Ian Fleming, the writer, he worked for British Intelligence. So, of course, he was party to knowledge of all this, gadgetry and information which is being withheld from ordinary people.
In truth, we as the ordinary folk in society only get to have access to these new technologies decades after they've been invented, when those powers that shouldn't be decide that it's in their interest for us to be able to use them. And this is why futuristic television, well, those shows and books such as 1984 and Brave New World, appear now to have been extraordinarily farsighted. And folks have been known to gasp, how could they possibly known about x, y or z? Well, it's simple.
They move in those secret circles, having gone to different schools, mingled with connected individuals and families and learned different subjects and attitudes and behaviors while the rest of us literally waste our formative years receiving compliance programming dressed up under the description as education. We are trained to become workers, to become employees and civil servants.
And regrettably, there has been a noticeable trend over time to offer less and less in the way of sport and physical education at school. This combined with a diet of less and less nutritious food over decades, whether it's fast food or, force grown, quickly grown food, GMO in more recent years, but it's all bad for us. We know now so much more than we used to know, but it's resulted in unfit and frequently unhealthy couch potatoes and armchair sportsmen. Most of us work for a living.
The majority, regrettably, are in sedentary jobs. A vast percentage of workers are unfulfilled by their work, and even actively hate their jobs. Does any of this describe you, or at least people that you know? I don't think it's accidental. An unhealthy population that has to a large extent had the habit of critical thinking bred or conditioned out of it is so much easier to control.
The lockdowns of 2020 and later were largely experiments in how easily we could be pressured into accepting unreasonable, if not downright ridiculous restrictions. We did resist eventually, but really it took far far too long. And again here, I will grab the opportunity to praise those Canadian truckers who blazed the trail of resistance to for others to follow. Oh, and you know that new age, what is it, expression? What you resist persists.
I swear they've brought that into common parlance to stop people resisting. It's nonsense. There's a much better, sound bite invented by John Gray, I believe, which is what you appreciate appreciates. So always look at the positive because the more you recognize the benefit in something and praise it, then, the more good it ought to flow into your life. But back to the lockdown situation, small businesses were devastated. Many of them never recovered.
While big businesses enjoyed exponential growth. Being confined to quarters left us with little option other than to order from Amazon. Of course using Amazon itself wasn't obligatory, but, oh, what we do in the name of convenience, remember, is playing right into their hands. How many people are kicking themselves now as they bathe in that phenomenon known as 2020 vision? And, oh, that is hilarious. It has nothing to do with the year 2020, but bear in mind that there are no coincidences.
I'm referring, of course, to the wisdom of hindsight. I'll never fall for that again, you might be saying. But what tricks might they have up their evil sleeves to force compliance next time? Personally, I believe that they will attempt further lockdowns possibly in the not too distant and a looming possibility is that these could be in the name of climate change, which I don't believe in at all. Unbelievably, I was chatting with a friend about 6 weeks ago. It was that recent.
She had never heard of 15 minute cities, also known as smart cities. These have famously been trialed in Canterbury and Oxford in the UK. Those were the first and there was a lot of publicity attached, but by now there may well have been plenty of others. The idea is that each city will be divided into sectors, and within each sector, everything you require will be available within 15 minute access. So this would be by public transport or bicycle, or on foot.
They want to abolish private ownership of cars, if not use of cars completely. And it sounds convenient. Right? But you would have no choice. The kids would go to the closest school. You would go to the one and only supermarket. If you wanted to go to the cinema, you would watch whatever was showing at your local one. And tough luck if the films that you wanted to see were on at the opposition's cinema elsewhere in the town. If you were lucky enough to have 2 cinemas in your city.
Travel outside of your sector in your car if you still manage to hold onto it. This would only be allowed with a permit, so of course there would be an allocation, a maximum number of trips or miles in a year. I've seen other horrifying, restrictions likely to attach to these 15 minute cities, like no meat whatsoever, no dairy products whatsoever. They want us to eat bugs, no question.
And there's a threat that we're only going to be allowed air travel of some really short distance like 1500 miles once every 3 years? But back to your allowed car mileage. How would they police this? How indeed? Well firstly, there would be physical roadblocks as has happened in many villages and towns in Greater London, that is within the m 25 Orbital Motorway. And these were introduced against the wishes of the residents who were not even consulted. Oh, but suppose they had been.
Haven't you noticed that when they hold these consultations to make it look like your participation in the decision making process is genuine, they take no notice of the survey results and what people actually want. They just go ahead and implement whatever it is they intended in the first place, and the trumpeted consultation exercise was purely and simply just for show. As well as physical roadblocks, there would be camera surveillance.
As soon as you crossed an invisible boundary, your transgression would be recorded and your fine would be in the post. Look ahead to a time when CBDCs are what we use for money. That's central bank digital currency, which they want to introduce instead of cash. They not only know what you're buying, but also where you're buying it and your electronic money can be programmed, such that it only works in the sector where you live and work.
They can't do that, said my friend in horror, almost as if I had made up the idea or reported it to her in some exaggerated format, but I assure you these so called smart cities are part of their plan. Wherever and however possible, we must resist. Non compliance is our only weapon. But when we all use it, well that's our best, if not only chance, of holding out against them. Remember, they're way less than 1% and we are more than 99. More and more of us are waking up.
Incidentally, be warned, they could be using bribery. UBI is universal basic income, and many will be tempted to accept CBDCs in exchange for free handouts, which will no doubt cease once you've swallowed the bait and signed away your freedom. Truthfully, anything that calls itself smart isn't good for you. Do you use a smartphone? Yes, well most of us do. But do you appreciate that it's probably monitoring you and feeding back your data to some central collecting data bank?
Incidentally, don't have your phone in the bedroom at night. Buy an alarm clock if that's what you're using it for and break the crazy habit of checking your messages and alerts as soon as you wake up. These phones emit serious levels of EMF radiation and could well be responsible for the brain fog that we hear is affecting many adults. And don't let your kids have the phone in their rooms overnight because the radiation is going to be very bad for their developing brains.
And I've warned about this before, don't use your phone, and particularly don't hold it up to your ear, your head in other words, whilst it's charging. The radiation levels are much much higher while the battery is being charged. Your smart television will certainly be monitoring your viewing habits and who knows what can be viewed from behind the screen. It's a horrible thought but it's perfectly possible for any screen that displays images to be capturing them as well.
And of course I mean without your permission. I don't have a smart meter in my house and I dread the day when these become compulsory as my electricity company is continually threatening me with. These in themselves emit high levels of radiation. And what are the symptoms of radiation sickness? Well flu like or covid like symptoms.
And again it's no coincidence that the international rollout of 5 g towers happened at the exact same time that people began falling ill with this so called new virus that they named COVID 19. Oh, and smart motorways. These have been proven downright dangerous. Apparently they're not going to, convert anymore. We see signs that a motorway is being upgraded, no doubt at great expense, when councils are pleading poverty when it comes to essential services like repairing potholes.
Yes. I know they're different pots of money, but it's it's the principle that I'm objecting to. As far as I've observed, the only difference displayed between a smart motorway and a regular one is the disappearing hard shoulder. Now you see it. Now you don't. Who came up with that crazy idea? Either have 1 operational at all times as a hard shoulder or convert it into an extra lane, 1 or the other. It's not ideal to convert it though, in my humble opinion, because vehicles do break down.
And where do you stop if there's no hard shoulder? So perhaps not the most upbeat of messages today with this discussion of AI, the hive mind and creeping smart technology. But I'm making a serious point. It pays to keep yourself informed. Know your enemy and remember there's always a choice. You can set yourself up to win the game of life. Become familiar with the laws of the universe. You have infinite potential. You can influence reality.
