FAKE is EVERYWHERE


All the world is becoming fake.  The USA leads this parade.
  • Fake news
  • Fake bombs
  • Fake outrage
  • Fake reports
  • Fake politicians
  • Fake investigations
  • Fake accusations
  • Fake terrorism
  • Fake security
  • Fake votes
  • Fake voters
  • Fake citizens
    ----------------
  • Fake love
  • Fake religion
  • Fake science*
  • Fake lies**
* History is loaded with false scientific reports.  From Piltdown man, to countless cures for obscure diseases, to causes for earthquakes.
**This one needs an explanation.  You have an unfavorable event, such as the murder of a reporter.  What you do is admit the event but lie about its origins or outcomes. 
All these are co-mingled with the real thing.

I used to believe someone, somehow, someway would bring back sanity.  Someone would find the words.  Now I believe the contagion of "hate" and "fake" must burn itself out.  It may take a generation or more.



One reason that "FAKE" is there in such quantity is so many, too many, even smart people, simply "need the feed" on a daily if not hourly basis.  Like some drug, they need a fix all day long and into the evening.

For these plasma partisans, it doesn't matter if you have done anything, will do anything, or even plan to do something, you are accepted with waves of support because what of you think and who you hate. You are admitted, covered by this cloak of acceptability.

Human Simulation is Possible - by Humans

  Human Simulation: Agent-Based Modeling and the Computational Case for Our Reality   1.       Introduction In the essay, we introduce the notion that humanity could be a deliberate simulation based on an extremely simple single-celled organism, hardly anything more complex than that. This will allow an (apparently) new interpretation of the notion that humanity is simulated, but that there is no master engineer at a massive number of dials and switches, responsible for every twist and turn of our universe and lives. We begin with the notion that the universe exists and operates under its own laws. So, given the Earth [2] , when and where life first began, it was infused with a living agent, self-actualized, reproductive, and with other basic rules for its operations, interactions, and much of what single-celled organisms do today. The idea from this occurred some years back when writing code in ActionScript (formerly Flash), I was able to create...

The Calculus of Ideas and Patterns

  Introduction. When dealing with ideas, patterns, intuition, and brainstorming, we need operations or rules not unlike those of arithmetic. The goal is not proof, a finished device, or a fait accompli , but rather a foundation for further investigation and study. In some cases, these operations may yield a proposition, that is, something capable of being proved. In this sense, they form a practical logic of intuition. The article concludes with a few select examples from a variety of venues. Setting. We are working with a given idea, problem, or project, or simply just thinking. Our aim is to discover pathways, patterns, or conceptual connections that may be useful. The following operations describe ways in which ideas and patterns can be generated, transformed, or refined. These also work toward understanding the imagination. Yet, this framework is distinguished from formal logic and proof. We are tempted to call them as “soft logic” because while nothing is proved, reasons...

Freedom of Speech

  Think of freedom of speech as a living organism. Then think of what is required for it to survive. Coming to mind are a population agreeable to its constitution (its environment) and the institutions (its nutrients) that keep it healthy. Currently, many institutions, including some political parties, question unfettered freedom of speech and are working to deny it, claiming it is unhealthy for the body politic. Yes? No?
