I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of your articles, really enjoying them…you HAVE to read The Matter with Things by McGilchrist. Many themes from your articles are deeply dissected in his book (which I think is the most important book this century).

I do not hear Obama, but a skynet voice!

Good afternoon. I am new with Be Water and this article is over my pay grade. I am not native English and I live without handy. I once learnt five languages to communicate with people - today the gringos use goggle. They translate like they bomb people - fire and forget. But I read shit and I listen to crap and what is worst - I have no chance to get the original as the US goggle machine drowns in arrogance.

What I mean is: I want and need to listen to gringos in English and to latinos quiero escuchar en castellan and to the French... etc etc - this is not allowed anymore as goggle dictates. I feel raped every day and must have blocked 400 channels so far at yourtub! Language is WAY MORE than translation. It is a way to live! To feel! To express!

There is no AI! Goggle is not intelligent and if you believe it is and trust it - you should stop watching Captain Kirk!

Example: A US precious metal dealer told me in the yourtub title (retranslated) "...pay later through your laser eyes" -> I could not even guess what was meant!

Handies are goggle or abbel censored - take your pick and get your vaxx! Is this what we want?

So in this article it is finance - which should be my expertise. I tell you what happened to all my US assets : I sold them! After the Russian ADR theft, I was out. The US bombed the pipeline in EU. I sold all my assets in Europe as the Europeans are too deep in the butt of Mr Warp Speed.

We have a brain and should trust it, because it is NOT artificial!

Whatever I look at in the west, it is full of complacency. Nobody controlls anything. Everybody and his uncle trust some machinery outputs and call it intelligent - IT IS NOT!!! It is just another lie...

The "Apprentice of the Sorcerer" is a poem by Schiller:

It tells the lazyness of a young guy, who uses his master's power and bewitches brooms to do his work, which then he cannot stop. It is us to know HOW to stop things...: "Besen, Besen seids gewesen. In die Ecke! Denn zum Zwecke, ruft Euch nur der wahre Meister!"

This order I know for 50 years, when education was needed - today she is without any use.

Have a great day!
