Neuroscience, National Security & the "War on Terror"

Antifascist Calling...
Operating with little ethical oversight, the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has been tapping cutting-edge
advances in neuroscience, computers and robotics in a quest to build
the "perfect warfighter."
Dovetailing precisely with other projects to "dominate" the urban
"battlespace" of global south and "homeland" cities, DARPA
researchers are stretching moral boundaries where clear distinctions
between "human" and "machine" are being consciously blurred. (see
"Simulating Urban Warfare" and "America's Cyborg Warriors")
As the Center for Cognitive Liberty & Ethics warns,
The right of a person to liberty, autonomy, and privacy over his or
her own intellect is situated at the core of what it means to be a
free person. This principle is what gives life to some of our most
well-established and cherished rights. Today, as new drugs and other
technologies are being developed for augmenting, monitoring, and
manipulating mental processes, it is more important than ever to
ensure that our legal system recognizes and protects cognitive
liberty as a fundamental right. (CCLE, "Frequently Asked Questions,"

The implantation of microchips into people, for total control, has been planned by the predator sector for many years and it is now becoming a reality.
It will be sold as the way to instant skills, professions, without years of schooling and training, "jobs" and perennial happiness. And, judging from the crap people believe in even now, they will eagerly accept it.
Welcome to prison planet! In the name of "freedom" and "democracy" of course.

Eventually it will all implode. But we will go through hell until then......the thing is, will we even know it?
For all practical purposes buttons and hi tech have replaced religions that were once the ultimate solutions to every problem, and supplied the cannon fodder for the traditional ruling classes.
Incompetence is the most profitable commodity, not only encouraged, but enforced by rulers
. Economists faint when anybody mentions "self sufficiency", because it kills their hysterical demands for fraudulent GDP figures, the end and be-all solution to all problems.

Not only economists, Ed. As I was making my way in the world, I noticed a distinct "sea change" in the generation(s) coming behind me. The emphasis became one on "group" enterprises -- group dates, group studies, look-alike dressing, etc.
Fewer and fewer were encouraged to strike out in their own direction. Instead of instilling a sense of self-confidence, the emphasis became that of bolstering one's "self esteem" (without actually defining just what constituted self-esteem). It became "feel good", without any basis in substance.
One of the reasons kids left home, only to move back in again, was because they found the world did not in reality revolve around them. The world in fact, didn't much care if they lived or died, and employers only wanted to know what these kids could DO. That's about when real education began for most.
They already have militarized the human mind by the use of video games. Check out this game which has been developed that uses the player's mind to control the character in the game. Of course, we are to believe the excuse that this is being developed so people who are paralyzed can enjoy video games.
