With the arduous environment surrounding the forthcoming political pageantry of the 2024 elections, the Big tech hierarchy continues to function as a collective time machine celebrating the gruesome heights of the first Soviet regime terrorizing nation states landlocked within the shackled confines of continental Europe. Stalin or Zuckerberg, Khrushchev or Pichai- each of the aforementioned tyrants either directly or indirectly launched a series of exploitative and aggressive five plans to both justify and marginalize procedural failure through massive public relation campaigns, the scope of which defies the daunting expanse of Siberian penal gulags.
Utilizing traditional and internal channels, the vast platform of a waning formerly known as F***book, has already begun the misinformation cycle in the initial stages to influence the upcoming Presidential race, a nuclear reactor heated symposium of stagnant ideology stuck the muck of an unexpected desert deluge preventing the onset of innovation and transparency.
With a sordid track record of data “custodialism” specific to trending news, which featured a cyclical deployment of human and bot moderators challenging the very limits of centrifugal force in causing widespread vertigo and malaise combined with the space towers of ambiguous “terms and conditions”, the corporate entity does not elicit confidence among the sensible demographic of the older generations abstaining from digital hedonism. In response to Trump vs the Democratic universe 2024 matchup, Zuckerberg and lackeys proclaim the company has eliminated “thousands of accounts” that are allegedly linked to bad actors proliferating influential political content from abroad. The announcement to the corporatized press corps aligns with the propaganda of the middle of the 20th century Pravda in publishing a blatantly false narrative to starving citizens of bountiful harvests as a smiling sun showers the Eurasian steppe leading to a bountiful munificence of food and freedom.
While the F***book campaign apparently designed to cauterize legitimate concerns over the flood of foreign rhetoric being piped into the devices of Americans, the underwhelming magnitude of actual take downs and detainment by the Bay Area thought police is indicative of electronic propaganda being utilized and embraced in keeping the Metaverse relevant and giving the Pavlov salivating dogs of AI villains globally motivation to weaponize the remaining billion or so false accounts that collectively have the ability to create manufactured truth from blatant myths and falsehoods. The gradually out of control social network rivaling a self-driving vehicle is plagued by “its” operators taking a leisurely slumber in the perpetual rush hour traffic of Mumbai or Mexico City, the overinflated trust surrounding automation merely a fatal flaw and band-aid as the infrastructure descends towards chaos. As a number of legitimate F***book accounts have been deliberately removed in similar campaigns over the last decade, the irony is that end-users possessing moderate ideologies are banished to the organization’s Chinses forced labor camp, and those or “it” who remain and survive the nonsensical purges tend to not just lean towards, but bound for extremism. This scenario is evident on both sides of the ideological spectrum.
As reality is further being convoluted by the advancement of analytics, AI, and the increased presence of what social engineers label as deep fakes, Zuckerberg and cronies propensity towards implementing jingoistic and antiquated engines of totalitarianism only obscures truth and breaches the robust membrane preserving the balance of power and allowing for chaos to persist. Integrating a militant model of socialism, a proven and effective campaign that led to submission, death, and universal control for the architects of the hinterland into the foundation of the digital dynamic, a nefarious and amoral example of reticulated exploitation has emerged at the dawn of the contemporary nightmare of the Information Age.
Unfortunately, it is the responsibility of society to monitor and effectively evaluate and adapt to the sudden changes of ingenuity traveling at the speed of light, however thanks to the 15-second attention span and absence of critical thinking skills, accountability is sitting alone at a barstool consuming copious amounts of libations in a rancid hazy environment of the oblivion. Of course, Silicon Valley leadership will continue to aggressively prey on the incessant gullibility of account holders which equates to trillions of dollars, with forced tribalism as icing on the cake.
As the Cambridge Analytica scandal is forgotten and covered by the convergent flows of dust that accumulate as each second passes, the temporal inference emanating from the time machine of perception shows capabilities to resurrect the odious ghosts of the past, while society endures the consequences of the deplorable and the egregious. Putin and other miscreants simply smile as new opiate of culture resides in a device- “We won’t bury you. You will opt-in to be ruled.”
