The owner of the largest and most influential media platform in all human history, Twitter, that spans all the world’s religions and all the world’s languages (Unicode) and all the nations of the world with Internet TCP/IP reach… is ADMITTING in public that there are “mind viruses” used by media networks.
Are people now seeing why Elon Musk’s $44 Billion purchase of Twitter makes sense? He is saying out loud what used to be only spoken in secret by billionaires. (Context NOTE: I used to work for 2 of the 3 richest billionaires in social media systems in the late 1990’s, I was a consultant in Bellevue Washington and was directed to give consulting advice to Bill Gates’s father (Preston Gates law firm), and I was hired to work on private staff of Paul Allen co-founder of Microsoft, my office in Bellevue was 10 doors down from Vern Raburn and Paul Allen in 1997 / I was social messaging systems manager, I had Edward Snowden level access to Microsoft Board of Directors comms)
The implications of Elon Musk disclosing that media platform owners spread “mind virus” is not getting attention - THE IMPLICATIONS of full disclosure of this on Saudi Arabia / Mecca / Rupert Murdoch global media systems, etc can NOT BE OVERSTATED!
Note to self: never try ketamine.
Note to self: never try ketamine.
it’s like Elon Musk has planted a “mind virus” in the entire population to parrot those words about ketamine every time his name is mentioned on social media. “drugs, hur hur”.
Have you ever studied media ecology of books, James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake? What University of Toronto Professor Marshall McLuhan said on Canadian television about drug use and James Joyce? www.LazyWake.com
Mecca in Suadi Arabia does not hand out ketamine to the audience, they had out book verses from Mohammad’s Quran story. I suggest you study the book: The Muhammad Code. How a Desert Prophet Brought You ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram by Howard Bloom. Howard Bloom worked with Michael Jackson, Billy Joel, Styx rock bands, he knows all about handing out “mind virus” to populations like Mecca and Saudi Arabian royalty do.
Ketamine is a miracle drug for things like PTSD, treatment resistant depression, and even chronic pain. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. Ketamine profoundly changed my life for the better.

I agree. Repeating: All of what you said I already knew and agreed to before ever commenting today. I agree with what you said 5 years ago when I studied the drug.
The topic here and now on Lemmy in April 2025 is Elon Musk and “Mind Virus” topics of Billionaires / owners of media empires and I discussed Saudi Arabia and Quran / Mecca Quran Theme Park media venues, etc. The message you just replied on Lemmy media systems is about how whenever in year 2024 and year 2025 I see a posting on social media about Elon Musk, comments always appear about Ketamine - as if Elon Musk is not to be held personally responsible for his behaviors and to let Elon Musk be free of responsibility for the decisions and choices he makes because he is a drug user.
I see similar patterns of these machine shared messages all over whenever Donald Trump’s name is mentioned, you see short little Twitter-length comments about how “Donald Trump is age 7”, “Donald Trump is senile”, “Donald Trump has dementia”, “Donald Trump is a baby who wears diapers”, “Donald Trump is a child” - to also cast Donald Trump as an innocent child, not responsible for his adult actions and choices to self-harm the USA and harm American people because he is not self-aware and self-responsible for his actions.
There are many messages like this on every media platform I encounter, encouraging that drugs or that the person is only an innocent child and not to be held responsible and accountable for choices being made.
You are the most schizo guy I’ve seen on Lemmy.
You are the most schizo guy I’ve seen on Lemmy.
yes, because I have the Finnegan Wake “Woke Mind Virus” that is the topic of this very posting here on Lemmy electric media system you are currently reading. “Joyce is, in the Wake, making his own Altamira cave drawings of the entire history of the human mind, in terms of its basic gestures and postures during all the phases of human culture and technology. As his title indicates, he saw that the wake of human progress can disappear again into the night of sacral or auditory man. The Finn cycle of tribal institutions can return in the electric age, but if again, then let’s make it a wake or awake or both. Joyce could see no advantage in our remaining locked up in each cultural cycle as in a trance or dream. He discovered the means of living simultaneously in all cultural modes while quite conscious.” - “The Medium is the Massage: An Inventory of Effects” by media analyst Marshall McLuhan and graphic designer Quentin Fiore, and coordinated by Jerome Agel. It was published in March 1967
You are the most schizo guy I’ve seen on Lemmy.
10-word Twitter think is all your brain can process, “reaction-comments” to support Elon Musk’s xAI / Twitter media platforms.

There was no social media in the late 90’s. At least nothing that ressembles anything we now call social media, and it wasn’t called social media.

“If all information is seen as part of a war, out go any dreams of a global information space where ideas flow freely, bolstering deliberative democracy. Instead, the best future one can hope for is an ‘information peace’, in which each side respects the other’s ‘information sovereignty’: a favoured concept of both Beijing and Moscow, and essentially a cover for enforcing censorship.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019Bruh thats not the source code. If you authored it from scratch, then post it.
Bruh thats not the source code. If you authored it from scratch, then post it.
First off, the topic is Elon Musk and “Woke Mind Virus”, and you are deflecting form that topic with low-effort pro-Musk comments.
Second, I haven’t had the source code since at least early 1990’s when I moved to Philadelphia and worked for SAP, largest software company in Europe.
If you authored it from scratch, then post it.
By that kind of Twitter-thinking Tweet-length logic, if someone baked a cake from scratch in 1984, they would still have the cake around in 2025, because it was “from scratch” cake.

The topic here is Elon Musk and year 2025 and how DOGE and Elon Musk are wrecking the world using “Mind Virus” media systems / media venues of billionaires. But you want to keep changing the topic to 1985 cakes. As you have been mentally conditioned to change the subject on competitive social media systems that Elon Musk doesn’t fully control, but can still influence with his vast population of “True Believers” in DOGE / Elon Musk ambitions.
There are plenty of cake recipes from 1985 in books.
There are plenty of books that were thrown away and never kept in 1985, people do not keep everything they ever owned in their life. Especially if they move overseas to North Africa (Algeria), Middle East (Amman, Jordan), Indonesia, Malaysia, Europe (Cyprus)… and traveled in 7 different RV’s working from home all over the USA since Thanksgiving 1999.
There are plenty of apps for the Commodore 64 and Commodore 128 that no longer have source code.
You can go look in magazines and listings for evidence I sold the software. But you can’t seem to escape Lemmy reaction commenting behaviors of Twitter-think Twitter-length pot-shot insults for Elon Musk lovers.

My mental problems can not be cured, I’ve been hospitalized over a dozen times and they never are able to address the 5,000 Russian simulacra patterns released by psychologist and psychiatry professionals at Cambridge Analytica on the World Wide Web in March 2013. Do you have a treatment plan?
Please seek help from a psychiatrist, your “mind virus” can be cured
Do you know a treatment plan for a society in MASS PSYCHOSIS all around me in the United States of America in April 2025? People who blindly trust and believe Elon Musk DOGE and blindly trust and believe Donald Trump and his current April 2025 White House, and chant “couch couch pope couch” every time the name JD Vance is mentioned?

Twitter is nowhere near the largest media platform in human history.
You don’t want to discuss the richest man in the world disclosing that there can be such a thing as “Mind Virus” in human populations and he is actively manipulating them with his media empire, do you? Little short-length Twitter-length Twitter-thinking commentary to change the subject, instead.
Hell, Facebook has more users in India
I teach Media Ecology on this Lemmy community: !MediaEcology@lemm.ee
There are a lot of things about media ecology you don’t grasp related to Twitter. For one, every HDTV news network and newspaper constantly covers postings off Twitter, it has vast reach beyond the users of the site - when a story is shared on Fox News about a Twitter message, the television audience of Fox News HDTV does not get counted as “twitter logins” and accounts. But it still makes it the most influential and reaching media platform in human history.
Same goes for magazines, newspapers, books, all kinds of media that copy content off Twitter. Again, media ecology understandings from teachers like University of Toronto Marshall McLuhan and New York University Neil Postman will help you understand the forest for the trees.

8-word Twitter-length negging comment to support Elon Musk Twitter platform over Lemmy, how predictable and expected when criticizing billionaires on Lemmy in April 2025. It’s not like Elon Musk doesn’t own an entire Internet Service Provider that is global (Starlink) and has the largest machine learning center in the world in Memphis to have a bunch of people manipulated as “True Believers” all over the Internet.

It’s a way of just driving discussion away completely,” she adds. “Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work.” - Moscow is financing legions of pro-Russia Internet commenters.

No, I am stupid and dumb, I have extreme brain damage, I have openly declared this right on Lemmy.

Why do you only care about people being dumb and smart? I’m here to address power of Elon Musk. This isn’t about people being dumb and smart.
Also fuck you.
You hate human persons, you believe in Hate as Faith, your personal religion is to Hate people you disagree with. That’s the same faith as Elon Musk and Donald Trump and Rupert Murdoch. I can see why you replied here on Lemmy social machines to attack people who don’t support what Elon Musk has done with the Twitter media platform.

“Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong to throw our lives away in riotous living. No matter if everybody in Detroit is doing it, it’s wrong. It always will be wrong, and it always has been wrong. It’s wrong in every age and it’s wrong in every nation. Some things are right and some things are wrong, no matter if everybody is doing the contrary.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, 1954
The fact that Twitter may be “the largest & most influential media platform in all human history” is a ringing condemnation of humanity in and of itself.

AGREED!!!
Carl Sagan (educator / teacher / television show creator / famous in media systems) in 1995 specifically called out short-length messages, he described Twitter in 1995 as “10 seconds or less” content in media systems.
“Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking. I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time—when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30-second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance. As I write, the number-one videocassette rental in America is the movie Dumb and Dumber. “Beavis and Butthead” remain popular (and influential) with young TV viewers. The plain lesson is that study and learning—not just of science, but of anything—are avoidable, even undesirable.” ― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, 1995
