Mike and the Mechanics
Can you hear me running...can you hear me calling you?
The song Silent Running by Mike and The Mechanics, released in 1985, although popular, seems to have slipped under the radar in respect to its prophetic lyrics.
The world of today is also the world of tomorrow in its infancy. Under attack throughout history, the value of the individual has always been determined solely by their ability to add to the bottom line of those in power. Whether that contribution is measured in monetary value or an increase in shares, the average human being has been considered a disposable commodity.
Consider the number of people struggling with Depression, Anxiety and thoughts of suicide; a worldwide statistic that grows larger every day in spite of all of our progress in medicine and technology.
Also on the rise, Autism, ADHD, PTSD and other maladys have grown at an alarming rate. Not only are most adults on medication but many of our children as well.
The rise of Artificial Intelligence-touted as the answer to many of our ills- will depend on an ever growing web that has been repeatedly shown to be harmful to human life. Did you vote for 5G? Did anyone ask the common person what they thought about it? No? Well, that is not a surprise-after all, what matters is profit and power and global domination, not the individual and their worth as human beings.
Ah, but when we burn out these frail human shells we can always jump into an AI "Singularity" and live forever, right? Only if you have the money, honey.
Warnings of what is happening behind the scenes right now and what is to come are destined to go the way of Silent Running.
And those who survive the coming revolution may soon listen to that '80's song with a different ear, perhaps a metal one, while they wait for a mechanic to fix their broken parts.
