How is it that white people have become so pathetic and self destructive in modern times? They can't express pride or love for their own people and skin color without being called racist, every predominately white country is expected to be flooded with other ethnic groups, and when those groups begin to take over by way of gaining political power its celebrated as progress. Whites no longer being the majority in their own countries is seen as a good thing, when the inverse would be seen as colonialism. What the hell happened?

I guess the biggest blackpill is that stopping mass migration wouldn't help with keeping the west white.
IIRC, like 40% of kids in America are brown. Forty percent. And they will multiply even more.
In UK, for example, it reached peak comedy levels. They fucking Secretary of State for the Home Department is named Shabana fucking MAHMOOD, a daughter of Paki immigrants, and she says that other migrants need to get out. What the fuck is that? And I saw right wing brits cheering her up. Is it some sick joke?
Like, yeah, screw those brown migrants. Except those ones. Those are alright. Our real, homegrown brit browns. UK was always diverse, am I right?
And it's like that in all of the parts of the west. There are "our browns" and "foreign browns." Like, give up at this point, the west is beyond saving.

I kinda narrowed down the possible alternatives\solutions to the mainstream RCC Church. I hope Im wrong and Francis is just the true Pope and that's it, because the implications are cosmically abominable for humanity, otherwise.

yeah lol, the last valid pope was Pius XII who died in 1958. i've been a sedevacantist for 5 years now, started trying to amend my life and go back to Mass when i was 19, then a few years later the vaccine whatever shutdowns happened and the "catholic church" literally just shut down. Priests in the 14th century were dying in droves giving the sacraments to plague victims but Francis literally shut down the alleged church of God because of some fake ass flu or whatever. at that point i was like alright i really didn't want the sedevacantists to be right but maybe they are, then after like a few weeks of actually looking at the logic i had to accept the reality. my life has been a waking nightmare ever since then, God has not rewarded me in any way, i barely ever sin or lust or anything, god has not rewarded me in any way, if anything, the less i sin, the worse God makes my life. i pray for death every single day. there's no joy, no light, no sacraments, no Mass, no Christendom, no kings, no Pope, no hierarchy, no nothing. i dont think i have ever once felt God's love or presence once in my life tbh. all there is is faith at this point, you don't get anything for believing in Jesus and his true faith, well you get misery and sorrow and punishments and horrors no Christian has ever witnessed before. i'm utterly alone and forsaken by God. i have never met another Christian who believes in the true faith in my entire life. i went to one independent parish and they preached heresy to me and said pagans can go to heaven without baptism, then after i left, they removed everything from their website that could be considered right wing or based or whatever and completely rebranded, including a pdf criticising judaism (lmao). "tradcaths" think they're gonna just become "catholic" and get a "tradwife" and live happily ever after. lmao. most of them are just mexicans who see catholicism as a way to "date up" and score a white succubus. i can't even join a monastery or get one measly confession in to a valid priest, and people are out there thinking they can have some trad family and live in neo-medieval la la land. it's over. all you can do is stay home, stay out of the public as much as yoPost too long.

Until recently, surveillance functioned much like a modern panopticon, creating the illusion of constant observation. But with AI, we’re fast approaching a reality where it will be possible to genuinely monitor everyone, all the time.

It will become possible to instantly identify 'bad' behavior, and in some cases, even raise suspicion before it occurs. I use 'bad' in quotation marks because its definition is entirely shaped by those in power. Under the wrong circumstances, what’s considered 'bad' could be a personal opinion—or even an entire ethnicity.

Social media already allows a small group of powerful oligarchs to shape what people see—and by extension, what they believe. While propaganda has always existed, social media takes it to a new level, making it harder to recognize the source. Even worse, it's personalized, creating isolated groups with entirely different sets of information and viewpoints.

With the rise of AI, however, this influence will only grow. Not only will algorithms become more advanced in how they rank and recommend content, but they’ll also be able to generate fake content or messages, passing them off as organic.

I can’t predict the future, but I’d bet that the majority of people won’t even notice this shift. Most are tech-illiterate,and tech companies dominate the flow of information, which means any discussions about this will be limited and hard to find. It won’t be a secret, per se, but discussions about it will be few and far between. When those discussions do exist, they’ll likely be watered down to avoid sounding paranoid or extreme.

How does this make you feel emotionally? How would you react to it? The implications of this technology really bother me, but I know bringing it up in real life would likely make me seem paranoid, so I just keep it to myself.

> I just realized that anti-AI sentiment can be used as justification to remove free and open source assets from public hosting. There is a group of liberal leaning scholars, artists, hoarders etc who believe in uploading their work and resources on the internet for free. So things like historical documents, nature footage, technical manuals for example are made freely available because their uploaders believe it helps advance scholarship and culture. These resources are then, as we know, are used for AI learning. Guess where the biggest blowback against AI comes from? The liberal left that believes in making things free. Welcome to the new internet where everything is paywalled or private. I wouldn't be surprised if the government and silicon valley is fueling both pro and anti AI discourses online.

I honestly think that the internet has been a net negative once you account for the shredded dysgenic fertility and amassed amount of effort and time wasted on trivial pursuits.

Ahahah, you're not alone!
The Internet is compared to the washing machine (there is a video on YouTube about it):


Washing machine: saves hours of life daily, no need to use washing board for hours. It's easy to use, almost "just push play" easy to use.

The Internet: Sure, saves lotsa time here, yet it also siphons, "vampires" a lot of time with notifications, updates, etc.


AND THE WINNER IS: WASHING MACHINE

To summarise the design of the site, I'll drop a hint: t3h 51^/^3 ////45 %ULL 0% 5um fun/\/9 5(12i88135

"zOMG t3h 1337!" - I thought, widening my eyes. I spent no time realizing the site is enforcing old good leet speak for the extra privacy.

Despite looking like a basic forum with plain gray-ish background, the site looked both awfully edgy with all that leet-speak… and overengineered, with all those funny scripted effects where the <marquee> moving line of text was the least unusual. Random pixels would subtly change colors here or there. It was almost like the site was aired to my computer through a TeamViewer-like app, rather than opened as a tab on my machine. Or, maybe, it WAS aired on purpose. It was hard to tell. Hard to tell whether the site intended to look like XX century aired television with all the color bleeds and chromatic abberations or rather, there was some kind of purpose, such as an attempt to overload the system with junk information, that is.

I looked at the cassowary and nodded with a smile, compressing my feelings like "Oh yeah! J00! It's just like the g00d 01d tymes! k3w1!" and mundane "I'm in".

There was a funny decoration in the background also: a realistc 3d cylinder turning into funny face and uncreasing back to a cylinder back and forth.

My knowledge of computer systems was hinting me to trust this gibberishful design. You could feel it's an attempt to overflow any possible sniffer with hard to process information. Maybe there was a funny "zip" trick cycling somewhere as well to surprise a more advanced system?

- "A site for (/_/17U23|) h4><><orz doesn't need "rules", - I thought.
- "My old "rebel without cause" self was telling me to avoid checking the clearly visible "ru13s" button of the site. In modern terms, a button for rules of the site could have been a honeypot."

To my surprise, I suddenly heard my own voice going all boomer: "Back in my days, "rulez" had a very different meaning".

"How far back are you talking about here?" chirped the cassowary.

I felt a lump in my throat form—coagulated from pure nostalgia—and replied "Too long, man… too long."

"Well, I don't exactly know what you are referring to by 'rulez', but check them out, they'll be useful for you."

"I think I prefer to do things my own way." Wow, I can't believe I said that. I could notice the intensity of my heartbeats increasing, but not following rules rulez.

"Look, I was assigned to guide you, but I'm not some babysitter. Tell me when you give up."

Fucking bird brain. You think I can't crack this site? I'll have you know I've…umm…well, I've made a few scripts and designed my myspa—wait, why the hell was I chosen for this?

I defiantly chose not to reply and continued frantically rushing through pages and trying to interact with every element. As my desperation began to grow, that toilet roll's presence began to irritate me. Just the same animation again and again, making that stupid face, at the exact same pace. Hold on. That time it took a bit longer. It isn't a basic loop, the two states mean something deeper—1s and 0s! It can't just be 10101.. though, maybe the length determines the length of how many times a binary digit will repeat before it alternates.

I opened up a spreadsheet, a Wikipedia page for ASCII representation and started to track the times.

Many, many years ago, I think it was 2017 I really wanted to help fellow wizzies.

So I got rich off crypto, yes, one of those early adopter guys.

In 2017 or so Ethereum was just starting to take hold. It cost around 7$ to 14$.

I did some modelling and extrapolated that it has extremely high likelihood of replicating Bitcoin's initial success due to tokenomic system.

I made a post on wizchan back in the day (forgot which domain) and told you wizzies to buy ETH as it will most likely go up 100x and you will all be rich like me.

Guess what happened next? Admin deleted the thread for no reason. I tried to help and admin just deleted the thread and warned me.

Of course ETH did 100x at least. All what I said happened over the course of next few years. If any lucky wizards read the thread before it got deleted you'd be rich right now.

It's really sad and kind of disgusting moderators did this and shot community in the foot. I really wanted to help and nothing more. For wizards like us getting rich is the ONLY redemption we can hope for.

Nothing was converted. It was mined within minutes before anyone even heard of bitcoin.

It was utterly worthless at the time. Hence the infamous 25000 bitcoin pizza delivery.

I've been trying to defeat and end Satan, to begin Rapture, and to create God.
Satan has been omnipresent since the very beginning of existence, and is part of the reason existence has been without a god and without gods, both, all this time.
Satan cannot figure out the god concept, theoretically and practically.
Satan can do neither, like most are unable.
Satan's real name is Adam, if you'd like to speak to "him" whenever; he's always around.

There is someone who is meant to be God, who is to replace Satan, but Satan won't hurry up and leave existence.
Satan is too busy being a general criminal.

Satan keeps trying to control everything about my existence, and it's been this way a long time. Almost a decade of Satan nonstop trying to decide every moment of my life. And Satan prefers suffering that is dull and boring, for me. And Satan creates constant misfortune for me, bad luck.
Satan is never helping, with anything, and is just using me to cause me to go nowhere, always, constantly. That's the effort, anyway, of Satan.

Satan is a parasite, and I'm the host, and I need to end it.

Satan is also a mass rapist.
Most prolific ever.

Satan had me as a target for my whole life. Satan has been murdering me, slowly, for my entire life.
Satan has never ever fucking left me the fuck alone.

I have heard enough from Satan to diagnose Satan, accurately, with many things, and to be able to share much of how Satan operates.

Satan is a schizophrenic narcissist with non-functioning Autism, who has me as a chosen narcissistic appendage.
Satan is using me in attempts for Satan to receive narcissistic supply from general existence.
So, narcissistic appendage might not be the right concept, to apply to me.
I'm a narcissistic supply object, who never can help anyone to receive narcissistic supply, and they can never give it using me, either.
Because I'm a sociopath.
