I don't know who that guy is, and it was incredibly long winded, but I got through it and he knows what's up
I dunno man if that's real then I think the video is pretty edited, that isn't live audio captured moving through space - it's fake delay, and obviously is dubbed over the footage.
Then I found this

I bet he was thinking about that sandwich he'd been looking forward to all morning.
Scientists testing a small but random sample of donated blood ready for transfusion have discovered that 70 percent contained traces of Xanax.
Writing in the Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical earlier this month, researchers were surprised by the level of pharmaceuticals detected in supposedly clean blood batches—in particular, the concentrations of cough medicine and anti-anxiety medication.
The testing also revealed that all 18 batches of blood contained caffeine, suggesting America's love of coffee, tea and other caffeinated beverages runs deep.

...“defense” research into a super-virus and the corresponding vaccine; the vaccine can be pre-deployed to unwitting AI-aligned humans; the rest of the world will be devastated by the subsequent release of the super-virus. this can all be carried out by people who either don’t know what’s going on, don’t care because they’re getting rich, or can’t object
not saying my above scenario is happening, but it's soooo not impossible
is there a word or philosophical school of thought around the moving moving of ethical decision-making into ethics-free realms? this is my enemy
