Last week, Tracy and Dale McMullen sold their vacation home in Buckeye, Arizona, a property they owned for five years. The Alberta residents, who usually spend four to five months in Arizona a year, said they are not planning to come back.

“We decided to sell the property after the current POTUS took office,” said Dale, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump, who was inaugurated for the second time in January.

“It was time to leave. We felt we could not trust what he might do next to us as individuals and to our country. We no longer felt welcome nor safe.”

You're doing an exceptional Bad Job at making people understand.

You're talking to someone that rang the alarm bells way before Cambridge Analytica and correctly identified the misinformation and it's source in 2015.

You lost me completely with your unclear messaging and ad hominem attacks.

My postings here on this post I created here... here... here on Lemmy... Started with "anti-goodness abounds" - which has been your behavior. "anti-goodness abounds" in April 23, 2025.

Am I arguing with a rogue LLM or is it DMT fueled rambling?

Am I arguing with a rogue LLM or is it DMT fueled rambling?

Dehumanizing me as a machine, LLM. [email protected] community about your dehumanizing behavior of real people. So common in April 2025 machine lovers society that I am documenting it.

You’re doing an exceptional Bad Job at making people understand.

Your active measures of wasting my time, demoralizing me, dehumanizing me with lemmy computer machines messages after messages of badgering insult replies has worked very well. You are one of the best haters with Lemmy media platform.

You lost me completely with your unclear messaging

Nel Postman's 1985 book lost you completely. [email protected]

You have a target fixation on my personal writing because I have autism and you sense it.

ad hominem attacks.

You can't cite a single one, you can't quote a single time what I've said that is "an attack". You misunderstand and have so much egoism and self-centered you think the topic is two people, your own self - I I I I ego.

This is my personal diary posting, so the topic was my personal expressions. The fact you find me difficult to understand is your problem of egoism, not mine. You haven't even tried reading the other postings from before today, you just keep badgering and insulting me and giving me loaded questions as active measures of Kremlin media techniques on electric media.

I've done my best to try and be positive about your active measures and make it a teachable moment, but I'm already on my deathbed and the USA I'm living in is so much a Hell enviornment of mass dehumanization I'm almost barely surviving. Which I have openly discussed on social media. I do not enjoy the enviornment of April 2025 society I am living in, I find it horrific and bad, and that is why I named these postings "Diary of Anne Frank".

So many people think it is fun, thrilling, exciting, "High Energy", I witness it. But I don't enjoy it.

Whatever you take, take less.

Whatever you take, take less.

You want me to die, I'm already on my deathbed, so stop taking my medication and food and die. Got your message. A death-wish response.

Wow, why would you stoop that low?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

why would you stoop that low?

What do you mean? You think I'm a liar? I am on my fucking deathbed and have been. I can barely eat any more. You think this is just a message on Lemmy and not factual reality? I'm not stooping low for your sake, I was here as I have been openly stating. RFK Jr is mass dehumanizing me for my autism just today. I have Hyper Empathy and I can't take the constant "anti-goodness abounds" and mass dehumanization gong on in USA any more, I have already been hospitalized over a dozen times.

People just don't get the title meaning of "Diary of Anne Frank", and take everything as insincere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Is this you?

https://www.gutknechtautism.org/experience-lots

I got the title, and I liked the post. Your comments on the other hand were outlandish and way too open to interpretation.

Just say it directly, it's the Internet.

If you didn't lie about your health, I would like to apolgise for implying you lied.

Yes

Your comments on the other hand were outlandish

You are fucking PUNCHING DOWN on me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE, GIVE ME A PRECISE QUOTE what is so fucking "outlandish"? Tell me why my expressions are wrong and please quote EXACTLY what you are referencing. Don't just point to 5,000 pages I've publish and say every word is outlandish.

way too open to interpretation.

WHAT, PLEASE BE SPECIFIC AND PRECISE. I have NO IDEA what your brain thinks and does not understand!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (4 children)

I thought I was pretty precise in my first reply to you, that you took for someone else's.

There's a lot of advantages in blaming..." sounds like a conspiracy theory itself.

Do you suggest that blaming russia, Facebook or murdoch is only done because it's advantagous to some?

You speak in riddles, giving way too much room for interpretation. You expect us do to research, instead of just saying what you want to say and then backing it up with a source. You make a disambiguos statement and post some seemingly random quotes and less random articles. But the work you put on us to understand you is immense, so people like me react defensive, especially on the Internet where the times of assuming good faith are long over.

I'm sorry for putting you down, I don't do it often but I got ahead of myself. I felt attacked by your replies and went into defensive mode. You did as well and we escalated instead of really trying to understand each other. .

We're very similar.

I thought I already responded to this, you want to go over it from the top? Personally I thought I made it clear that this seems like a tactic to use thought-terminating cliche phrases. "sounds like a conspiracy theory"

...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

You speak in riddles

No, I do not, the WHOLE WORLD does not understand and communicate with each other. I created an entire Lemmy community on that topic, "Tower of Babel metaphor". [email protected]

I'm not TRYING to conceal or make anything difficult, it already is difficult. Russia and Cambridge Analytica released 5,000 patterns of anti-reality, and nobody is on the same page!

In fact, I created ANOTHER Lemmy community on the problem: [email protected] about the fragmentation of people's understanding and comprehension, how we need to sort out priorities in the aftermath of the loss to the Russian Hybrid Warfare / Hearts and Minds warfare - and get on the same page!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You speak in riddles, giving way too much room for interpretation.

I have created an exhaustive web of topics for you to learn what I'm referencing, I've been publishing it since December 16, 2009! My ideas are not simplistic, trivial, minor, small, concerned with fitting into Twitter-thinking and meme-speaking, Fox News language and communication systems.

Just on Lemmy Alone:

[email protected] - Brain Damage caused by Mass Mind

[email protected] - People not understanding even the slightest most superficial differences in languages and communications.

[email protected] - How the United States of America and NATO have lost an information warfare of language and memes that started in late 2012, "Operation Matthew 4:19"

[email protected] Teaching about the Medium of Lemmy, HDTV, electric media systems, how people don't understand or comprehend ideas - Marshall McLuhan, Neil Postman, etc.

[email protected] Specifically about media ecology and education topics of Neil Postman.

I could go on and on, that's my point. You jump into the middle of my raw expressions in "Diary of Anne Frank" and you start throwing questions at me and expect me to know your background and understanding on massively complex problems of this Russian Hybrid Warfare and the compete self-destruction of the United States of America society!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

and expect me to know your background and understanding on massively complex problems

See, that's how I felt seeing your post, reading the comments, replying, and only then discovering your background.

I usually don't stalk people before replying to them on an open forum.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

See, that’s how I felt seeing your post

That's part of my whole point, people are so conditioned to view media systems in only the way they expect they can't even grasp why someone title their post "Diary of Anne Frank"

People are so enslaved by the electric media systems, that's our very crisis - now world wide - in April 2025.

How do we escape MASS PSYCHOSIS, all the postings over on [email protected]

My posting title also says "anti-goodness abounds", I can not escape this, many people are unable to escape it. Many people don't even understand we are in a technology-driven mass dehumanization event. They are so engaged in the total mockery amused by it that they can't even imagine humor and absurd comedy surreal entertainment is the very basis of Russian hybrid warfare.

 

  1. “Everything in our background has prepared us to know and resist a prison when the gates begin to close around us . . . But what if there are no cries of anguish to be heard? Who is prepared to take arms against a sea of amusements? To whom do we complain, and when, and in what tone of voice, when serious discourse dissolves into giggles? What is the antidote to a culture's being drained by laughter?”― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 1985. [email protected]

  2. “In the twenty-first century the techniques of the political technologists have become centralized and systematized, coordinated out of the office of the presidential administration, where Surkov would sit behind a desk on which were phones bearing the names of all the “independent” party leaders, calling and directing them at any moment, day or night. The brilliance of this new type of authoritarianism is that instead of simply oppressing opposition, as had been the case with twentieth-century strains, it climbs inside all ideologies and movements, exploiting and rendering them absurd. One moment Surkov would fund civic forums and human rights NGOs, the next he would quietly support nationalist movements that accuse the NGOs of being tools of the West. With a flourish he sponsored lavish arts festivals for the most provocative modern artists in Moscow, then supported Orthodox fundamentalists, dressed all in black and carrying crosses, who in turn attacked the modern art exhibitions. The Kremlin’s idea is to own all forms of political discourse, to not let any independent movements develop outside of its walls. Its Moscow can feel like an oligarchy in the morning and a democracy in the afternoon, a monarchy for dinner and a totalitarian state by bedtime.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, 2014

I agree with everything you say and honestly, it's fantastic work. You have studied and have sources of everything that i've pieced myself together over the years.

I think it was important for me to meet you, and I will use your studies to educate myself and my surroundings.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

I contacted the Pentagon first in 2015. I reported it in 2015 under Biden/Obama! At the time, I did not know it was Russia attacking social media, but I knew it was hard core Joseph Campbell / Dr. Stephan A. Hoeller level Mythology, and I reported it! I was BOOTS on the Ground in North Africa Arab Spring, December 2010. I know my shit!

 

I contacted the White House once Biden got back into office, both Harris and Biden and DoD / NSA. I used to work for Telos Federal Systems as an Apprentice when I was 16. I also used to work in consulting for Microsoft / Bill Gates as a third-party (Software Spectrum in Garland Texas) in Bellevue Washington and was hired by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen for his private staff / personal systems (and lead on NBA / NFL teams, etc on messaging media). I'm a published author on IBM OS/2 operating system topics, professional technical editor, and published author on Microsoft Exchange Server social media systems (AKA, the one NATO had hacked and Hillary Clinton).

I told the White House several times that James Joyce's Finnegans Wake needed to become military training material. Sarah Lawrence College Professor Joseph Campbell, University of Toronto Professor Marshall McLuhan both converge on the work of James Joyce's 1924 onward publication of Finnegans Wake.

The Russian Hybrid Warfare of 5,000 artificial religions monomyth mind patterns / alternate reality screen games https://washingtonmonthly.com/2017/11/24/a-trumprussia-confession-in-plain-sight/ - have since year 2022 been fed into large language model / artificial intelligence training. It isn't even under Russia's control, and I consider them self-destructive egoism-furthering patterns, they do not teach compassion, forgiveness, and love like authentic religions.

Military / NSA / CIA / Pentagon high level people should all be doing everything they can to learn James Joyce's Finnegans Wake. Like cram courses:

  1. This Late-Night Reading Group Zipped Through Finnegans Wake in Seven Short Months https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/this-late-night-reading-group-zipped-through-finnegans-wake-in-seven-short-months-1933978/

  2. War and Peace in the Global Village is a 1968 book by Marshall McLuhan and Quentin Fiore. It contains a collage of images and text that illustrates the effects of electronic media and new technology on man. Marshall McLuhan used James Joyce's Finnegans Wake as a major inspiration for this study of war throughout history as an indicator as to how war may be conducted in the future. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_and_Peace_in_the_Global_Village

 

As for the general population... 184 page book "Amusing Ourselves To Death" from 1985 by Neil Postman, we need to make that a front-page topic of every social media / hashtag top every day for at least 3 to 6 months until we all (anyone age 12 to 100) understand the book from 1985 perspective, then 1996 Fox News introduction, and then the 2007 Apple iPhone introduction. It is a well written easy to understand book, and there are good videos, such as this 6 minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETUGwC9jXCM

Overall, the hardest challenge is getting people to stop mocking, stop hating, and take serious learning and helping each other and healing education and understanding problems. This INCLUDES Bible literacy problems. Even for non-believers. More on that over on Lemmy community [email protected]

Bible verses "1 John 4:20" ... "1 John 3:17" .... "John 1:1" ... Galatians 3:28 and ... www.Romans1132.com is the short version.

And we all need to learn and understand the Skywalker Ranch / George Lucas lessons on [email protected] .... www.GreatSealUSA.com

That's the very short summary.

I far prefer people engage dead authors and dead teachers on these subjects and all get on the [email protected]

 

P.S. My own personal dream would be to use a rock opera to "get everyone on the same page", everyone memorize a common set of videos and songs / collage art. But I don't think it will appeal to people. But I've used it to keep my own sanity as long as I can, it's helped a little. www.WakeIndra.com

When I started seeing the patterns, I was convinced that the arab spring was some sort of test run of whats to come, and I think I wasnt that far off.

I was gaslighted so much for calling out russian bot farms and astro turfing before the word made sense to most.

I started getting curios when all those depressive meme subreddits started popping up on reddit, shortly before 4chan had it's exodus because "Moot is SJW now", and Donald Trump announced his presidency. Only later I pieced together that it started way earlier and not only on the Internet, but in all regards, and the severity of it. Terror attacks, immigrant streams, discrediting of MSM and installing numerous dubios Media outlets that follow the 60:40 rule (60% truth, 40% lies and fear), parties with dubios money sources popping up all over the world and so much more.

It has been some insane years of seeing all this coming and getting gaslighted for it. I think I'm keeping myself sane at the moment by creating hopeful patterns in the chaos that keep my spirits up.

I was gaslighted so much for calling out russian bot farms and astro turfing before the word made sense to most.

It has been a fundamental mistake by the Pentagon to not make all the social media companies work together in sharing their spam filter hits (including false positives) and share IP address / browser strings and time patterns between platforms.

Russia claims only 1% of the social media accounts were found: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/04/16/russia-disinformation-discord-leaked-documents/

So many American social media power users say "Follow The Money!!!" and don't grasp at all that Twitter and Reddit are highly influential and require no payment or money to create accounts. Throw-away account culture.

The USA government completely failed in not getting examples of Russian information warfare participation into the public audiences. It should have been pinned posts on Bluesky, Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, etc with examples of what Russia was doing to manipulate people.

  1. People give you a blank stare when you point out factual evidence going back to 2014 impacting Measles and the COVID-19 pandemic https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45294192

  2. People don't even realize that hurricanes have been targeted by Russian information warfare: "Russia has helped amplify and spread false and misleading internet claims about recent hurricanes in the United States and the federal government’s response, part of a wider effort by the Kremlin to manipulate America’s political discourse" https://apnews.com/article/russia-hurricane-disinformation-fema-9e37c73ab8ffa2a2d338797a1a827e57

Like I said... why was this not pinned on all social media platforms? The government has completely failed in defending people through education and self-awareness / media ecology literacy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

I always got the impression that the governments just found out about tweeting when all this was already underway, and just didn't have any idea or plan to counter it. It felt like they were just stuck in a completely different game and didn't even realise what really was happening on social media all the time. The first viable counter strategies seemed to pop up with the late Biden campaign, targeting disinformation in the comment sections.

There's no excuse though, when someone like me gets the picture relatively early.

Man, the hurricane "weather control" comments on all weather related topics and videos has been insane. It was imediately clear that it's part of the "boost everything crazy and dividing" strategy.

I try for years now to get my point across, not get caught in discussions and not getting divided. You bet it isnt easy in the work environment and with people I meet.

Edit: And yet we both thinking alike were clashing and dividing... It's tough keeping composure

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

it’s tough keeping composure

I don't try, self-dehumanizing yourself and acting like this is all LOL LOL fun and amusing is part of the sickness. That's why I traveled to live in North Africa and spent years in the Middle East, I just could not accept the hate people have over the most superficial and tiny language differences and such. Islamic Shia vs. Sunni vs. Sufi, they can be all the same skin color, same Quran book, but butcher each other over the most trivial and small differences in how to read a book about love and compassion. Everything I have heard in 15 years of autism support groups from tens of thousands of people has only shown me just how much people go into egomania over their language and communications to dehumanize what they do not understand.

 

"The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves." - Carl Sagan

 

I am not a "believer" in the Bible, but I take it very seriously because people take it serious. I view religion symbolism systems as languages.

It is disgusting what clergy in United States of America teaches. they completely avoid Bible verse "1 John 4:20" about how all hate is bad, they ignore everything from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's excellent teachings about hate. The clergy in USA avoids "1 John 3:17" in teaching their audience about Elon Musk and Donald Trump moral values with wealth. They outright teach hate the non-believers. They find every excuse they can to dehumanize others in reading that 2,000 year old storybook. Sickening that these are what people flock to.

I think people in USA have not learned love and compassion and forgiveness, the think these are all just reactionary emotions and short-term and the clergy and psychology / psychiatry industry is teaching them garbage. The psychology industry is actively participating as manipulative predators with Cambridge Analytica and Dr. Abraham Brill with Edward Bernays as role models. So few have stood up against the Donald Trump / MAGA values of mass dehumanization and "hate those you disagree with" egoism.

The Constitution does not teach "Love One Another" and nor does the owners of Facebook, Fox News, TikTok, YouTube or corporate America. There is nobody teaching goodness, everyone just teaching competition and win at any cost in every area of life.

People in the USA in year 2024 and year 2025 have lost all sense of what life was like before year 2013, or what life was like before everything was Apple iPhone format meme-think egoism of who can be the most clever on social machine systems. Everyday people in the USA since year 2013 have become hate harder teachers every day, and if a computer or government system or insurance system / process / procedure is involved, dehumanize those you don't find entertaining values. A "Monster State" of attacking and kicking those weaker and punching down by every person in the society. That's exactly how people behave in terrorism societies I have lived in and studied!

 

“In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the masses had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true. ... Mass propaganda discovered that its audience was ready at all times to believe the worst, no matter how absurd, and did not particularly object to being deceived because it held every statement to be a lie anyhow. The totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianisn, published 1951

 

If I hadn't lived in terrorist nations and studied the Middle East by living there first hand in 2010, 2011, 2012, I could never believe the hatred and dehumanization people will accept and further in the name of mob mentality and insulting those they disagree with.

"So woe to those who write the “scripture” with their own hands, then say, “This is from Allah,” in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn."

Surah Al-Baqarah-Verse 79

Preserving the Authentic Message: The Quran’s consistent admonition against false prophets is an explicit measure to safeguard the purity of the divine message. It reinforces the uniqueness of the prophetic tradition and underscores the importance of maintaining the integrity of God’s guidance.

Distortion and Misguidance: False prophets, by their very nature, propagate distorted teachings that can lead their followers astray. They introduce theological innovations, aberrant practices, and divisive ideologies that threaten to fracture communities and misguide sincere seekers of truth.

Spiritual Confusion: Followers of false prophets often experience spiritual confusion, as they are presented with conflicting beliefs and practices. This confusion can erode faith and create doubt, hindering spiritual growth and tranquility.

Division and Sectarianism: False prophets can engender division and sectarianism within religious communities. Discord and strife may arise as followers align with different claimants to prophethood, fracturing the unity that is central to many faith traditions.

Consequences of Following Falsehood:

Erosion of Authenticity: Embracing the teachings of false prophets erodes the authenticity of one’s faith. It dilutes the purity of the original message, replacing it with interpretations and innovations that deviate from the true path.

Spiritual Drift: Followers of false prophets risk drifting away from the core principles of monotheism, morality, and ethical conduct. Their spirituality becomes entangled in practices that may be misguided or even contrary to the teachings of authentic prophets.

https://quranexplains.com/the-warning-against-false-prophets-safeguarding-the-path-of-islams-faith/

The bible and Quran is full of warnings about what is happening right now, and yet so many are mislead by false prophets and become hateful instead of heartful, and go against everything their scriptures tell them. In their own words, they're simners, and yet they point the fingures everywhere else.

Is there a chance we get out of it without going through even darker times?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

I think the idea of saying "only one single book is perfect, can never be changed, and all other books in the world public library are imperfect" is very bad. Quran, Torah, Bible all try to do this and create a ton of hate by having a "story supremacy" / "book supremacy" cult.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I felt attacked by your replies and went into defensive mode.

This is my fucking personal deathbed diary, and YOU are the one criticizing ME!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I already apologised, and if I would've known, I would've shown more tact.

Dont forget that you mistook me for someone else and I got your whole anger calling me fixiated and spamming replies, while I just tried to clarify things between you and them.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Dont forget that you mistook me

Forget? I don't even know what you are referencing, I maybe don't even understand at all to "forget".

Where? Links? You expect me to keep up with 5 media platforms and dozens of people at the same time, and don't provide any links or citations, etc. I'm doing my best here, but you act like people don't get confused in media environments.

I got your whole anger calling me fixiated and spamming replies, while I just tried to clarify things between you and them.

How am I supposed to know it isn't "alt accounts" in the middle of people giving me insincere and trivializing responses? are you aware of hybrid warfare methods? My very posting title says "anti-goodness abounds"

I'm sorry if I got confused on people, but my pain and suffering is extremely authentic. If the World Wide Web wasn't the very source of all the problems in the White House / population, I wouldn't be here at all. I'm trying my very hardest and doing my very best, which is horrifically bad, I am a loser and a failure.
