Cell Phones: The Elephant in the Room

It is difficult to talk to addicts about addictions and it is even harder to do so when their embrace of the drug of choice has dire consequences.
I once asked the ether if God had a cell phone, and although God didn’t reply, it was a rhetorical question, so I didn’t expect an answer since I knew God understood grammar and punctuation and had other ways of communicating.
The elites who consider themselves gods, such as those at the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Google, and their ilk throughout governments, corporations, media, etc., know that cell phones are fundamental to their plan for a fully digitized world. They have promoted them for decades.
Without cell phones their plan can’t work, a plan whose end is a trans-human world where AI, cyborgs, technology, and biology are melded for their authoritarian control.
Their non-vaccine “vaccines” are also necessary. Penetrating cells of both sorts are means to their ends and the stories we are told are meant to infect our minds with a sick way of thinking that will allow them to exert more and more control.
Most people have fallen for their PR. It’s called the-easy-life. The stay-in-touch life. The never-be-out-of-touch-life. The you’ll-be-lost-without-it-life. The smart life. The free life.
In reality it is a prisoner’s life. The miracle of the cell phone, the mystery of a virus and its “antidote,” and the authority of authoritarians are being used to try to quell the spirit of rebellion we were all born with – the promise of freedom. Mystery, miracle, and authority – “vaccines” against freedom.
Like the Grand Inquisitor in Dostoevsky’s legend, these sick elites are relying on the assumption that “man is tormented by no greater anxiety than to find some one quickly to whom he can hand over that gift of freedom with which the ill-fated creature is born.”
They may be in store for a big surprise. People are starting to wake up to an attack on their fundamental freedoms.
Like the non-vaccine vaccines that they are promoting to exert more control with their plan to digitize existence with the Great Reset, those who presently control so much of the world they own, know that cell phones are moving shackles. And they know they have created billions of addicts who can’t help themselves.
So much of the world has been hoodwinked into a trap, a prison. It’s been a slow process that is approaching a climax.
There are no cells in cell phones, but their towers are arranged to form cells with each having a central tower in its geographical zone that keep users prisoners, as with the round Panopticon prisons with their central guard tower. Cells in heads, heads in cells, cells everywhere. The USA also has more prisoners in cells than any country in the world.
There are Towers of Babel all across the land, listening, watching, recording, as the prisoners gleefully scroll their black magic machines that have corralled their freedom. Machines that are likely ruining their health as well, but that is not my main focus here.
Unlike the nearly 2 million people in American jails, cell phone prisoners can roam, for their cells are mobile. That is their key. “Smart” phones for gullible people, or androids – “a mobile robot usually with human form” – are necessary, for they allow the authorities to follow and track your every move while you think you are skipping down easy street while carrying the equivalent of a GPS ankle monitor like digital jail prisoners. In this case, it is voluntary incarceration. And there is far more to it than having your location tracked.
Perhaps it is unfair to say that people’s embrace of cell phones are acts of freely giving up their freedoms, for the propagandists’ work has long softened up many minds to the idea of salvation through technology. Like the technology of pharmaceutical drugs run by criminal Big Pharma, users of cell phones have been induced to consider convenience over conscience and the quick “fix” over slow deliberation.
Yes, you can message your friends and even call them, but your enemies have your number now. And when they ask you for your papers, your freedom vaccines, all you need to do is flash that screen in your hand. After getting shot first. To paraphrase Kris Kristofferson: Freedom’s just another word for everything left to lose. But few are counting.
“What we got here is a failure to communicate,” says the Captain to the prisoner Luke in the classic movie Cool Hand Luke. “Some men you just can’t reach…which is the way he wants it.”
I’m afraid that’s how it is with owners of cell phones. It’s very hard to admit you have been had. People want their cell phones but don’t want to hear that they are the phone’s prisoners. But to say phone is too abstract. Phones can’t imprison and manipulate you. Only people can. The truth is hard to swallow. The cell phone is the key, and most people are in the cell without a key or clue. They have it and it has them.
But then aren’t cells inside us? I’ve heard it said that spike proteins teach cells to make a protein that triggers an immune response inside our bodies. But how do the cells get inside our bodies. I thought they were hand held. You see I am getting confused, for this kind of language is beyond my ken. I’m still trying to figure out how my computer can get a virus. Everything’s gone viral. Cells, viruses – what’s next?
I’m one of those idiots who still thinks Cat Scans are used to see if you like cats. Well I don’t know if that’s all true, ‘cause it’s got me, and baby, it’s got you. Sonny and Cher sung those words more than fifty years ago. Words stick. Ideas stick. Thinking and behaving in certain ways become habits. Linguistic mind control needs repetition – words like cells and viruses.
The medium is the message and the messenger is the m in the mRNA experimental non-vaccine vaccines. It’s so simple; all you need to do is get the message and get your experimental shot and wait for the consequences, just as with cell phones. Don’t worry about the price to be paid in health or freedom. Those are incidentals. Let the operating systems do their invisible work.
The way the story is framed controls the story. As with cell phones and vaccines, most people do not see Donald Trump as a pseudo-event. A pseudo-event being, as described by Daniel Boorstin in his classic book, The Image: A Guide to Pseudo- Events in America, a planned, dramatic, costly invention of a counterfeit story that is repeated and planned for its intelligibility and ability to capture the public’s attention since it conforms to stereotypes.
In this case, Trump as a big-mouthed, uncouth bad guy who just happened to become the American President. Like I happen to be a man. Like you just happen to be reading this. Just happenings. Trump in the role of the ignorant outsider who can be played off against the smart insider even when the fundamentals of the system that supports them barely change an iota while the bad guy runs the show. Straight from the Tube to the Tube as part of the Spectacle. Obama and Biden’s anti-doppelganger.
The story is told in a manner that the obvious is missed: That Trump was never an outsider. He was one of the establishment’s performers from the start. A perfect foil from the Tube for apprentices learning about reality. You know, like the CDC says:“MRNA vaccines teach our cells how to make a protein—or even just a piece of a protein—that triggers an immune response inside our bodies.” Very simple, teacher. I see it now.
Are you immune to Trump? Biden? They are not the disease. They are its symptoms. They are twin heads of the Hydra. Now Trump has been “fired” with Biden’s turn to come. Cut them off and the monster will grow more heads unless by miracle a true leader arises with the courage of JFK or RFK. One who can avoid their assassins.
In January of 2021, the outsider Trump while still president, the anti-vaccine guy, the anti-Fauci guy, the anti-everything that’s good guy, the anti-science guy, the anti-China Wuhan lab Chinese virus guy, quietly got his Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, the same one Biden got. He didn’t announce it, but said:
We took care of a lot of people — including, I guess … Joe Biden, because he got his shot, he got his vaccine. It shows you how unpainful that vaccine shot is … So everybody, go get your shot.
Of course Trump was the guy who fast-tracked the experimental vaccines through a program called Operation Warp Speed that funneled billions of dollars to vaccine manufacturers through a non-governmental third party, a defense contract management firm called Advanced Technologies International, Inc. This avoided much public disclosure.
I say all this about Trump to make a rather simple point about cell phones and how the obvious is staring us in the face if we choose to see it. Trump and cell phones should have long been obvious. Yes, cell phones are convenient, but that is a minor part of the story. They are very dangerous for our freedoms and health. Yes, it is very convenient to see Trump as the bad guy but much harder to see the larger story in which Trump is a chosen player on the large chessboard created by the interconnected power elites. But Trump and the cell phone serve their functions. They didn’t just happen.
To abandon your cell phone or to abandon the false narrative that Trump is an outlier is very difficult. But these are difficult times.
Can you see the elephant in the room? Join with those like Robert Kennedy, Jr. and other lovers of truth and freedom and fight back now. Everyone must seize their freedom now before it is too late. Cast fear aside; it is another of their key tools. Hope lies in group actions.

We have one which we keep for calling emergency services only. I am not spending money on a data connection over which I have no control because there are ‘apps running in the background’. They seriously think we pay for something that we have not ordered? But it gets a little difficult sometimes. More people need to refuse mob phone tech.
When will they offer us tech adapted to people and not expect people to adapt to tech?
Be very alert, never sign up to the secret services.
You can never get them out of your life – see Witness K.
Avoid the military as well, because you might put a foot wrong and then they’d ‘encourage’ your signature for the ‘services’.
The iphone is great for taking pics. Just put it in airplane mode or a foil wrapper when you go out
Here’s an idea on how to resist this cell phone control.
I’d call it a cell phone exchange. A place where people exchange their cell phone for a strangers cell phone.
The phones could be put into a pot and people leave a phone and take a random cell phone.
This way you’ve got a phone, but the surveillance state can’t be sure of who anyone is.
Sure a lot of details need to be worked out, but it would throw a monkey wrench into the system if enough folks did it.
This could be implemented on a small scale among small groups of like minded people.
Algorithms can identify individual based on combination of personal characteristics such as gait (detected by sensors in the phone), proximity of electronic devices, security cameras etc..etc. The only way to escape fetters is to get rid of fetters.
The phrase ‘elephant in the room’ relates to something given active social ignorance, even to become invisible, that is contextual to what is then running as a diversion or evasion of the Fact. Cell theory is an artefact of the mind of such an active ignorance. yet the nature of Field as Communication of fluctuating resonant domains is where Spirit moves over the Face of the Waters. Interfacial water is known and shown to be a liquid crystalline structure that holds and translates information as well as energy. In our body this is the gel water that interacts with proteins as the phase changing of states by which bio or life expresses, adapts and evolves, as the support or vehicle of Field Expression that we are socially entrained to deny or hide so as to partake of an Object model for the shared experience of an unshared life – driven… Read more »
Hello Binra: The body and electric/etheric fields are designed and conditioned by environment. Every living thing on planet Earth resonates to environmental conditions. Yes, there is an interactive element of “mind”, but the essential resonance of life commands the fields of soul and intellect. Not the other way around…
This is a very old page that I’ve had on hand for about a decade. The effects of microwaved water on plant life have been duplicated many times over by various individuals and academics. Most mammalian bodies are comprised of about 70% water, and virtually every urban tree, shrub, flower, weed-grass, pets and loved ones, are similarly affected by microwave emissions. The microwave circus needs to leave town before everything is quite dead…

Yes the living waters are moved over by a dissonance that breaks communication. This is a perfect metaphor for the ego of a segregative domain within a greater embrace of which it is screened from full awareness of. Anything seen as thing in itself is the projection of the self-separate idea that generates its own reinforcement. Lockdown, distancing & masking set a physically limited (mortal) focus. The temporal linear perspective is foundational to a developing self consciousness, but as you frame it reads as yet another version of determinism that expands the programming to include energy fields. My sense of Soul contains all worlds rather than to idea of possessing a ‘Soul’. Infinity has no dimension and so contains all dimensional expressions. The word mind is used for the adaptive front end of a world-experience expressed through an organism/environment. This survival-mind is the mapping of its world as conditioned meanings… Read more »
Hello Binra: I get what you’re saying. I spent many years experimenting within Natural or Pagan beliefs. Nature manifests what is needed. Desire and want are intellectual booby traps… I found early Gnostic models such as the Sophia tradition spoke to the potential of a non-compromised and unpolluted Soul… I was very resonant with this tradition. The Christian system,slaughtered every Gnostic scholar and practitioner down to the last breath. They also destroyed many astute and formal texts. The Nag Hammadi codices were rediscovered in 1945. They are interesting, but only a small glimpse of what once stirred in the minds of men… I believe Mind is a Universal force. I also believe Intellect is a product of conditioning… Infinity would suggest that the individual is always infinitely outnumbered. Some wax paranoid about this Universal condition. I simply accept that what is, is… A few people Grok this quote. > Humankind… Read more »
I grok enough to join with you in the positive appreciation you are sharing here. Chief Seattle speaks succinctly. Everything is the Nature of the Whole in all its parts. Everything we give determines our receiving. As the idea of being the maker are we made in the measure of our making. But ideas made in contradiction to ‘what is’ cannot find support but as being contradicted by ‘what is’. Thus an illusion of self is set, as a way to see all things as the means of disconnecting such illusion from its ‘life’. As if Reality attacks its Own. As if truth is terror. And lies must mask over a locked down dissociation. Forgiving or releasing a false belief, of who we are not, allows a Universe of Connectedness to know itself through who we are, That we make personal and social ‘realities’ of what we are not is… Read more »
Hello again. You stated: “Our true Need can be seen as the balance point through which truth is recognised as true.”
“Nothing ever goes away until it teaches us what we need to know”
– Ani Pema Chödrön –
– (1936 – xxxx) –
A quote that came along years after the storms and conflicts ended…
Yes.
The need to NOT know (denial) set a curriculum of teaching and learning.
‘What we resist, persists’.
So recognising and accepting the denied as the condition of release.
Hence when people say it must never happen again!
They are setting what they say they don’t want into the foundations from which they then live in the frame of.
Many think this is weakening the resolve to be free of evil or insane outcomes, but the nature of deceit is to induce reaction in the frame of the bait.
It is often so that we don’t appreciate our freedom within the residual habit of an identity no longer functioning AS identifying us or reality. But our true Teacher will never leave us until we release and are released of the attempt to tell reality what it should be.
Thanks for the exchange.
And for your witnessing.
You can have a cell phone for all the good things like ebear lists, without all the bells and whistles and geolocation etc. I have a cell phone that cost little, allows me to call 112 or 911 or whatever, just fine, but with no geolocation or Bluetooth allowed, and with a company that allows me to have a phone only connection. I commonly go in the mountains and find that a map and compass still work pretty well. And if there is a signal I can still use my basic cell phone to get help. One thing though, I actually had to buy one of those idiotic phones, just to access my bank account. It sits on a shelf at home with no SIM in it unless I happen to need it for certain operations in the bank. Just a tool like a screwdriver, though not as useful for… Read more »
A rather one-sided view of the technology. As with everything, cell phones come with costs and benefits. As only the costs have been examined here, allow me to list some of the benefits: Author mentioned auto accidents. OK. How many lives have been saved because someone immediately dialed 911 at an accident scene? Before cell phones you had to rely on someone with a CB radio, otherwise find a land line, and good luck with that on a freeway or out in the sticks late at night. Are your children more or less secure now that they can immediately call for help when threatened by a stranger, or simply lost, injured or delayed? How much has your anxiety been reduced by knowing your child can call you right away if they have a problem, or in the worst case scenario, be located by GPS? Amber Alert? Have you got that… Read more »
Apologies – I down voted you by mistake.
I can’t stand the things , but you raise some very valid points.
There is a ‘Sauron’ effect that you are overlooking – in the the investors seek to weaponise and marketise technologies for private gain and profit – while focusing PR in such things as you list and as Progress assumed to be leading us where we want to go rather than into the corporately owned and controlled playground whose parameters are arbitrary once the market is captured. So you are seeing as if tech is neutral. It is no more designed to enable free and creative decision making than the current vaccine agenda. It is all rigged to the banker. So yes if you apply yourself you can find the niches and use what suits you. yes the overall nature of negative outcomes shifts with the shifting times, but the appeal you make is all the securitised narrative identity of risk aversion and anxiety placation that effectively zombifies people so as… Read more »

From the cited article:
“But when corporations are in charge of planetary life and ever larger profits are the be and end to all of existence, that other story is never available, except perhaps in the very small print. So much of mankind continues to walk into a trap, set by itself to imprison itself, while thinking it has found the new freedom. And this has never been more true than with the advent of the ‘smart phone’, ‘smart meter’, ‘smart watch’, ‘smart city’ – ‘smart everything’.”

Yes the ideal of the dumb user is that life supports self-illusion. Well it doesnt, and so in persistence of such illusion we seek to replace it with rules and filters of mind control, even to the point of biologically set filters and rules. My sense id that our pattern of walking into a trap is being revealed to all, and those who are now unwilling to give consent become open to what they did not expect, because the removal of the curtain is not to a damning psychopathic self-hate, but to the Infinity that ‘attack’ operates to deny, limit and distance in space and time. As the sign pointer says – You are here! But such coordinates are in communication with the More of All That You Are such that the Universe is here, where you thought a ‘you’ stood apart and alone.

Cell phones were always meant to be a intentional distraction and deliberate dumbing down of society. Apparently, 50% of users get ALL THIER NEWS on cell phones and spend an average of 13 seconds reading an article. Supposedly, they also use the same addictive technology they use to design video games. They are by far more lethal than all the other addictions, combined. Certainly far more deadly than cigarettes ever were. You have to wonder how many people have died from them? Driving is clearly the number one killer. But look around and watch how many people aren’t paying an ounce of attention to their kids? I wonder how many children have died from that? I think of a small child’s perspective when it looks at it’s parent glued to these things instead? How truly pathetic. I don’t own one nor would I ever. Nor do I own a TV.… Read more »
“Cell phones were always meant to be a intentional distraction and deliberate dumbing down of society.”
I believe TV completed that work long before cell phones appeared. Cell phones are just icing on the cake.
the network of cells will not seem like sweet dusting to the social system of internment. That they serve the same hidden purpose while presenting apparent powers, freedoms and protections, is as I said elsewhere on the page the nature of investment for marketisation or capture and weaponisation such as to protect such gains. Possession and control – operating from an underlying lack drive fear of loss of possession and control, for no matter how much, its is never enough. Addiction is in the foundations of its inception as a getting mentality, over a giving/receiving.
Everything it ‘gives’ it steals.
The underlying pattern is the thing as an expression of a Terrain, not the example taken in and of itself.
So you know Trump took the vaccine? Have any proof? Why would he take it when 8 months ago he had Covid? This article is so short sighted when it come to playing the long game. Trump had to counter their game of endless lock downs. If it wasn’t for the vaccines they would lock you down forever. Even with the vaccines they are trying to. Trump has to play the game. Can’t remember Trump being anti “science” or everything that is good? Being anti Fauci has proven to be right a thousand times. Trump is not the maker of the vaccines and is not in control of manufacture. The health authorities are claiming they are safe. If Trump said don’t take the vaccine the media would go bat crazy like they have been and blame Trump for killing even more people and being like you say anti “science”? There… Read more »
And to add Trump called on Robert Kennedy Jr to Head Trump’s ‘Vaccination Safety’ Committee.
Don’t just look at what Trump says to keep the media hyenas at bay but look at what he does.
“I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots”.
—Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
technology was developed as an extension of man, now man is an extension of technology… a technological society… reject it, or adjust to it… transhumanism… there’s no going back to the cave… no human will ever fly to Mars unless it’s as a cyborg… the Willing are many…
You may be right that “technology was developed as an extension of man” – but NOT of man’s humanity. Rather, of man’s bloodlust and craving for control over everything – and, above all, his sense of being the Crown of Creation.
Which explains how he became his technology’s slave.
Give up the idiot phone, go back to a Nokia and carry a notebook so that you can record your good ideas about how to renovate the conservatory or grow a new vegetable patch, you know, using your brain.
“Big Brother is home. He is installed in the item you just dragged home from the Apple store.” “The world is not sliding, but galloping into a new transnational dystopia. This development has not been properly recognized outside of national security circles. It has been hidden by secrecy, complexity and scale. The internet, our greatest tool of emancipation, has been transformed into the most dangerous facilitator of totalitarianism we have ever seen. The internet is a threat to human civilization. These transformations have come about silently, because those who know what is going on work in the global surveillance industry and have no incentives to speak out. Left to its own trajectory, within a few years, global civilization will be a postmodern surveillance dystopia, from which escape for all but the most skilled individuals will be impossible. In fact, we may already be there. While many writers have considered what… Read more »
The above quote is why Julian Assange remains illegally imprisoned at “Her Majesty’s” Prison Belmarsh.
The only way to free Mr. Assange is for a para-military group to break him out. This of course will never happen in merry old England…
Also why the main article here may be moot. At this point, we turn our phones in and go without and they pass a law for all citizens to carry some form of digital ID. Anyone without a smartphone is issued the electronic device from the DMV or some other government agency.
I don’t have a cell phone. Wife doesn’t have one. Kids don’t have them.
Just like we don’t have cable, satellite (or whatever) TV.
None of us took the non-vaccine ‘vaccine’.
Debt is the real prison, don’t lock yourself up.
Free your mind, think for yourself.
Lets not forget what the mobile phone networks do to the environment. Until about 2012 the media was allowed to publish articles on the effect of high frequency radiation on honey bees. That is currently forbidden. In fact all kinds of insects are undoubtedly affected. Reduced insect populations mean lower bird populations. I am sure vegetation is also affected. These devices and these networks are yet another assault on nature. Ironically birders use “apps” to identify the steadily shrinking numbers of birds they spot.
Some lovely images. Thanks. Of course, Edward, we over here don’t have cell-phones and we don’t have mobiles in our bodies that get penetrated by a virus or messenger mRNA vaccines which are not vaccines, but I suppose they could call them mobiles and rewrite the books on virology, medicine and epidemiology. And God would understand. Some of us are from a different era. Was it really fifty years since Sonny and Cher infected us with the baby that got me. In those days, well the decade before, nobody could even dream about mobiles. It’s just that parents did not sleep! Indeed it was great fun camping in a tent in a thunder-storm with the lightning illuminating the inside of the tent. Although we were only about a mile away it was too far for loving parents who could not sleep to put their trust in God and they came… Read more »
IDK how it is everywhere else but in Mexico all the restaurants (except for mom & pops, actually just moms) tell you to scan the QR code to get the menu. I flatly refuse and tell them I didnt bring the stupid screen. They look at me like im a freaking alien then spend half an hour looking for a ratty printed menu. When out with ‘friends’ I make it a game now to see how long they can go without fondling that Big Bro Brick sitting on the table like a pampered pet. They’ll be talking then say “I’ll show you…” and reach for the pet to show me some stupid photo or post. When I say “just tell me” they fluster. Like addicts needing a hit. I prefer to dine alone now and observing the addiction at other tables is entertaining too. People look at me like I’m… Read more »
I particularly despise the couples who go out to a restaurant then each looks at their phone continuously, occasionally showing the other person their screen because they, I assume, have found yet another (the billionth) nice picture of a cat. That is your best friend you are with and you still can’t communicate other than by offering ‘electronic pitcture’ gifts. Sad.

The cellphone is just a tool. Its how people use it that’s the problem. I’ve had one since the beginning which means I’m used to them costing too much to use so I never got into the habit of constantly scrolling push messages from social media. Contrary to popular belief the phone can’t replace a computer — the processor might be adequate but the interface is too fiddly for real work. They’re not much good for entertainment, either — the screen’s too small to stream video and audio streaming is all about locking you into one or other subscription service. If you just use it as a communication device with useful extras such as a decent camera and the ability to run useful applications then it will cease to dominate your life. People might vilify them but when you watch an old movie and see how inconvenient it was for… Read more »
If George Carlin was alive you can easily imagine him saying

Many people in the 21st century have surrendered without a question or a fight their inalienable human rights to Big Tech and it’s master.
Very good article. I enjoyed that, and agree it’s time to take a cold, hard look at the elephant in the room… because the next elephant could be physical war. Not like WWII so much, but maybe like hundreds of miniature revolutionary wars. Only this one will be filled with robots, drones… Or perhaps frogs in pots don’t fight at all. Strange, but lately I blink and wonder if this life is a dream. Growing up as a child in the ‘every Sunday’ Catholic church routine of the 60’s, one of the first stories you hear is about Adam and Eve, and an apple you should never take a bite of, and a snake that is there to tempt you to do so. Later adult learnings, achievements and so on, you begin to believe this was just a silly parable. Now, so much of this power structure is steeped in… Read more »
Drones that shoot you with an RFID locator tag, or the latest vaccine, terminator robots etc. etc.
Just the tip of the iceberg of what the evil that is has had on the drawing board or under developement for years now and they will now roll out it under the auspices of “technological advancements for the greater good”. We live in interesting times no doubt…
mobile phones would have been distributed for free if people were not so keen to pay top dollars for them (and queue overnight to be the first to get them)
mobile phones are a form of external micro-chipping.
Corbett’s latest ‘Meet the World Economic Forum’ points out another aspect of cell phones…
There’s a clip of a WEF lackey (didn’t catch her name) asking her audience “how many of you own your cell phones?” which then becomes “why do you need to own anything? Your refrigerator?… “. It’s the thin end of the long wedge into “the circular economy” and usufruct becoming the norm.
Why do I want to own my refrigerator? Because food storage is much more fundamental to life than a bloody cell phone and owning something that usually lasts a long time is cheaper than renting it for years. Plus it can’t then be taken away from me for not being the WEF’s definition of a good citizen…
i’d also like to own it because i know i’ll take care of it. as you can imagine, all these user-only products at first will be new and wonderful… but over time, they’ll have more opportunity/disasters that prevent them from providing the same service. in the end, yeah… hunger games. definitely hunger games.
Own nothing and be happy.Is their mantra now.How or why would I be happy if I did not own anything and it could be taken away from me at anytime?
and your fridge does not get software updates every two minutes whetherr you want them or not
Even as recent as Windows 7, I could program the computer not to accept any updates at all from Microsoft – which I always did. Now with this horrendous Windows 10, that feature no longer exists. I can “pause” the updates for up to 35 days; but I cannot refuse updates.
Yeah, it’s another one of those coercive impositions delivered with the pretext of choice. Microsoft would tout this arrangement as “empowering” end-users and giving them “more control” over their computer use.
It’s like the bogus messages from Internet advertisers offering the “empowering” option of “managing” one’s ad content.
Users are encouraged to interact for the purpose of “refining” and “optimizing” their ad choices as a distraction from the grim truth that users are not permitted to block and decline ads altogether, which is what most of us really want.
Despite the flimsy pretense of courtesy, these gangsters are making us offers we can’t refuse.
In 1985 I predicted phones would be the where all our computers and computation would be because they would be universally connected with the phone system, at the time hardwired. I had no idea that this system would be mobile. I saw no need for a mobile phone in 1985, but i did see need for a connected computer to access resources. I still see no need for a mobile phone and refuse to carry one. I want to be alive and not tethered to the SYSTEM of US Commerce which wants to use me to increase the increments of their transactions. An increase in income per minute. The only possible use would be if I had a road breakdown and wanted the convenience of a quicker call to AAA. Now that there are no public phones i have to ask to borrow someone’s cell phone. Cell phones are useless… Read more »
I refuse to have a smart phone but I do have a basic Nokia. useful for texting, etc.
ahhhh… beautiful science!!
video didnt post above for some reason, lets see if it does now
since i couldnt get it to embed, here’s link What Happens If You Pour Molten Aluminum on 50 iPhones?
Hilarious!
One thing I’ve learned is not to hit the “link” icon below when trying to post a link. For some reason it just screws the link up and it comes out as regular text.
thanks for the tip! what i was trying to do — embed video, it showed when i inserted using source code icon but when i hit post comment it was gone. took me aback, made no sense to me that it didnt show up.
Unavoidable advertising everywhere. 5G phones are free. I can’t wait to be part of the next experiment.
I said that mobile phones would be trouble for humanity back when they started to become popular in the late 90s. Turns out I was right. I briefly dallied with a smartphone, until I regained my senses, stopped thinking with my dick and recognised the same addictive patterns of behaviour it encouraged and rewarded in me that I’d worked so hard to overcome in the past. Back to the dumbphone for me, left at home often, left off often and it’s left me as some kind of outsider, a curiousity from a bygone era, which I’m fine with. I’ve had a lifetime to get used to it. Last weekend me and my beloved were out on a little tour around a beautiful part of the country in the little van I bought for a pittance, not working, and fixed up with my own hands into a functioning camper and we… Read more »
Quick Draw is so right. We traveled all over the US and Canada years ago in a Tent trailer. At that time we camped in National Parks for $3.00 a night, also most Private camp grounds were no more than $5.00. After a few years of camping we started seeing these huge motor homes, and the price of camping went from $5.00 to $25.00 a night. The reason being they use a lot of electricity with their generators, lights etc. These big Motor homes have to stay on highways, so they are not camping. When we traveled we never used a freeway, always the back roads. These people spoiled it all for the future generation. You better have a lot of money in order to stay in a campground.

What the hell is “Eurasion”?

A smartphone is a computer and with a couple of new lines of code it could get some new funktions. It has a microwave transmitter, a couple of antennas, a gyro and so on. It has the potential of being able to control some microwave induced nano-tech.
I have an old mobile turned off in my pocket in case I need to make an urgent phone call. They can monitor me while in front of my computer but I want to be free as a bird while moving around outside. And BTW, I refuse to pay a large sum for the equipment they use to surveillance me. The computer is a trade-off.
You hit the nail on the head there. With the spraying of the atmosphere outside and the injections altering us inside, authority will talk to our very cells with cell phone broadcasts. How they love their puns.
A good article until it discredits itself by claiming that RFK junior is a seeker of truth , when clearly he is little more than one of the heads of the security state Hydra that has arisen since 1950
Edward Curtin : a pseudo-event: a planned, dramatic, costly invention of a counterfeit story that is repeated and planned for its intelligibility and ability to capture the public’s attention since it conforms to stereotypes…..

Join with those like Robert Kennedy, Jr. and other lovers of truth and freedom and fight back now. Everyone must seize their freedom now before it is too late. Cast fear aside; it is another of their key tools. Hope lies in group actions. What you just called for perfectly conforms to stereotypes that can capture the public attention.

On the physical effects on cell phone radiation: Dr Robert Becker wrote in 1985 that researchers “ffound major chromosome abnormalities in garlic shoots irradiated with low levels of microwaves. They soon found the same changes in mammalian life”. Dr Neil Cherry PhD has pointed out that certain organs of the body have their own natural EMR communication systems so are “especially sensitive” to external EMFs. These organs are the heart and the brain – so nothing too vital! The US National Toxicology Program found “statistically significant increases in the incidence of brain and heart cancer in animals exposed to cellphone radiation at levels below international guidlines”. Mainstream medicine has been entrained to think that EMR’s main effect is thermal heating and that doses below that level aren’t a problem. Very few doctors would consider it a cause for a patient reporting, for example, trouble sleeping. WHO went as far in… Read more »
So much evidence has been compiled (beginning with a study by the US Navy in the 1940s); so little of it taken seriously by a populace so enthralled with technology that they place warnings of probable danger under their pillows as if these warnings were teeth that came out – and place their cell phones on their nightstand so they don’t miss anything just because they have the misfortune to fall asleep at night.
Which brings another point in focus: not everyone suffers the same effects from increased EMF exposure. I highly recommend a documentary called “Resonance: Beings of Frequency.” I believe YouTube still has it (I bought the DVD).
My wife and I went camping at the beach this week in our “luxurious” tent trailer. Go to a campground anywhere in America and you will see it is not simply a cell phone problem. The issue, at least in America is we have been addicted to not plenty, but to overabundance. Every time we camps we see these people–of all ages now, driving “camping” rigs worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. My wife asks, “What is the point of getting away from it all when you bring it all with you? These “camping” rigs all have satellite dishes, televisions, etc. And easy credit has given nearly everyone access to every other kind of luxury, to the point of ridiculousness. This cell phone thing is a single symptom of a larger disease. But when I see people strolling down the beach texting or talking on the phone,… Read more »
A basic simple mobile phone is necessary for emergencies but a smartphone is distraction from natural improvement.
There is an advertising technique where they put in a deliberate mistake. This may be obvious or subtle. It causes people to have a double take. Did I see that. They correct it in there mind. They wonder if it is a misprint or deliberate error. If they are the only one to spot it. Bottom line they spend more time looking at and thinking about the advert. I wonder if the author of this article has used this technique. “What we got here is a failure to communicate,” says the Captain to the prisoner Luke in the classic movie Cool Hand Luke. I always thought it was Cool Hand Luke who said “What we got here is a failure to communicate” to the Captain just before he got shot. But looking back I see that the captain also said it first. So Luke was trying to be smart by using the same… Read more »
You succinctly, if inadvertently, present one of the central dogmas of modern group think: Life Is an Emergency. With its corollary: We Must Be Prepared At All Times.
I believe people have been deliberately led to this belief – though some of us (like me) come by it naturally. It’s an extremely debilitating way of looking at life; and certainly it restricts the scope of choices one considers available.
As I said, I more or less did this to myself. Most, I think, are brought to it intentionally by a power structure bent on absolute control of all aspects of modern humans.
The great Australian truther Max Igan’s has been warning us about mobile phones being the new world order’s device for ages. Unfortunately I’m writing this comment on mobile phone.
Wonderful article. I would just add that part of the deception in foisting these devices upon the population has been continuing to use the word “phone” (as in “cell phone” “mobile phone” and especially “smart phone”) to define them. In fact, in the past telephones were used to speak to other people who were not within shouting distance. Today, people actually speak on these devices probably less than 5% of the time. They are used to check emails, send messages, watch films, purchase things, and for dozens of other purposes which have nothing to do with phone calls. “Phone” sounds harmless and indeed necessary. If we referred to them as an Interface to Big Brother or something similar, it might help people to reflect. Any ideas about renaming these devices correctly?

Perfect!
Join with RFK Jr. “Lover of Truth & Freedom” ? And become a ‘climate change’ scam promoter? AS IF that would lead to freedom! RFK Jr. Comes off as an intelligent guy, unless he’s got a ghost writer he must have some serious research Fu, which leaves me with a dilema. I cannot trust a proported ‘skilled researcher’ who has looked at the nefarious science to order of the IPCC cabal and come down as a frothing at the mouth “Climate deniers should be in jail” pusher of totalitarian globalist memes. I notice he’s in a circle jerk of foreword/afterword/introduction authors who all seem to make the best seller lists, not exactly something you’d expect from someone genuinely fighting the good fight against the PTB! Has his philadnering, or drug problems left him compromised? (note he started promoting the climate scam as a 1500hr community service sentence after a drug… Read more »
The only climate scam is the way its presented by the ruling elites who have been trashing the planet for personal gain since forever and will continue doing so as long as people accept that they and their minions are the only ones pushing the climate agenda.
Here’s a big clue: the PTB carefully craft their agenda so that even a six year old can detect the gaping flaws. That way there’s no real danger the public will take it to heart.
Added to this, placing all the blame on ordinary people and their lifestyle all but guarantees the climate agenda will fail – and the plunderers can continue their handiwork forever and ever. Until it all runs out and the people are left holding the bag, which contains a single word: OOPS.
The only things that drives the climate (and affects CO2 , 0.04% of the atmosophere) are the sun and oceans.

It’s certainly astonishing to step back and look what was accomplished by these public-private interests – they were able to generate a condition where billions adopted these devices, and they didn’t need to mandate a government tracking device – instead, they built upon the work of the advertisers and propagandists (like Bernays) of the previous century, to not only convince people to acquire these surveillance devices willingly, but to fork over large sums of money, often on an annual basis, to do so. I have found myself recently taking a step back to reflect on the breadth and scope of the damage that’s been incurred on global society in the post-9/11 period. The general population, but the younger generations in particular, find themselves incredibly addicted to smartphones, the internet, video games, social media, and the like. The global pornography industry has also laid waste to an entire generation of men,… Read more »
What’s wrong with video games? Some of them are works of art!
And if there was no internet there’d be no OffG.
90% of the anti-covid info is being disseminated via the internet.
YOU are on the internet right now – deploring the internet 🙄
Critiquing the physical and social impact of smartphones is one thing, but this level of Luddism is just silly. In 1830 you’d have been one of those warning people that these new fangled trains were going to kill everyone because the human body couldn’t withstand traveling at more than fifteen mph!
Tolstoy and Chekhov did perceive railways as evil, morally evil. They would not say they are ”Luddists” nor would they say their stance was ”silly”. You obviously would not understand it/them.
I don’t know about Tolstoy or Chekov ,but you’re right, roula. It’s a chicken and egg puzzle that admin is propounding. Maybe off g would be printed, who knows?
Tolstoy did study the destruction railway was wrecking on the rural Russia. He considered it a moral evil as it destroys not only a physical landscape, but the whole established way of life. The suicide of Ana Karenina is an echo of his thinking – in Tolstoy’s times she was one of the first grand female heroines who ever committed suicide the way Karenina did it, throwing herself under the train, perhaps the first one, I don’t know for sure.
Chekhov’s ”Cherry Orchard”, a high comedy of manners about a destruction of Russia has building the new railway network as one of the rationales why the Cherry Orchard MUST be destroyed and turned into some to-be-capitalized entity.
With no internet there would be no alt media, no Corbett report, no OffG, no videos getting millions of hits.
With no internet we would be xeroxing copies of our fact sheet and reaching maybe 100 people per year, whereas currently, WITH the internet, we reach literally millions.
If Tolstoy and Chekhov thought trains were evil they were just being silly old fools. That’s possible, even for genius writers.
The internet is the printing press of the 21st c. Which is why there is a low key campaign to make us all deplore and despise it.
All the points you bring up are correct. Without the internet I would not have been able to read a lot of books that have informed my understanding of the world, for which I am grateful. However, I’m not too happy about the Internet of Things and the totalitarian surveillance state it is enabling. I’ve loved railways since I was a trainspotter when I was eleven. I was enabled to indulge my love of independence and adventure, travelling as far as my means allowed. It certainly never occurred to me that railways were the tool that that allowed the British Empire to rape the world and spread it’s net of financial slavery. Perhaps I’m rambling on like a foolish old man and boring a pert young lady such as yourself, so I’ll leave it there Sophie.
I think the poster is talking about the level of addiction. When I travel by bus and a party of schoolkids is on board, I am astonished to see each one of them sitting glued to the little screen on the smartphone in their hands before them, and ask myself if this is healthy.
And who can blame them? “School” is hell.
I would rather have the old time bus rides with the chaos of schoolkids!
Clearly you do not understand that the ” medium is the message ” and have missed the point of Joe’s post ? Consider the false intimacy and fake sense of community the ‘internet” encourages in the constant blizzard of marketing scams and adverts that are the basis of the internet as it builds predictive algorithms, based on personal data it mines from your computer/I-Phone .
I would have thought this kind of comment, full of strawmen and incivility, to be beneath the OffG staff.
Incivility? Wow. I was recently personally attacked by a commenter on here for my presumed ethnicity. So I would not expect anyone to have a problem with a mild impersonal word like ‘Luddism’.
please indicate where I use strawmen?
A way of thinking can produce a perilous way of living. I, for example, proudly proclaim myself as a Luddite. And yet I’m not entirely sure I would have been able to survive in the kind of world I think best.
A paradox. But then, isn’t that basically what life is anyway?
If not a paradox , certainly a dichotomy?
Some people recreate with $$$ between there legs on various vehicles, in order to detach from there responsibilities.
Sometimes that detachment becomes the raison d’etre of life.
The problem with many vid games is that they can trigger all sorts on emotional currency on those unsuspecting of hidden messages, and, of course, depending on the game, RATIONALIZES KILLING.
and you think Fauci’s replacement will make any difference;
It’s not about his replacement – it’s about one of the key actors promoting these horrendous policies, who’s been held up as a kind of god by the corporate media, finally starting to take some heat.
I don’t believe any change is possible, except a change of worn-out and discredited faces. Besides, perhaps he is at his retirement cut-off point so those who pull his string and pay him the salary will cleverly turn his natural aging into an argument to win over some of the disbelievers: “Look, we have changed the bad Fauci into a new one, a good Fauci”.
I agree he is an actor, a scripted one. So the cast may change, but the script will carry on. Judging but what they have implemented in Punjab to a population of more than 100 million, no doubt the best is yet to come…
Cell phones or smart phones? I would say the latter are the main problem.
We need to make the Nokia 105 a cool thing to wave about 🙂
Yep, with a phone you only leave footprints whereas with a “smart” phone glued to your face you’re stomping to the beat.
Excellent article, thanks! Two more things: 1) Already for decades some of us have been monitored (by police, secret service) through our conventional landline phone. In the 1980s the parliament of Hamburg released a provision that the police of Hamburg was not allowed to monitor citizens only – and not longer than- for 3 minutes through their HUNG OFF(!) landline phone. I asked a technician, how surveillance was possible by a phone that was hung up. He told me that if you hang up your conventional phone only one line is disconnected (to the hear-and-speak handset of the phone). If then a high frequency is laid on the other line the two microphones of the handset can be activated and used for spying in you rooms. So especially for attorneys, tax advisors and others, who have to talk about critical things with a customer: Please plug out the handset from… Read more »
Another thought provoking essay from Ed. “Can you see the elephant in the room?” “The way the story is framed controls the story.” Not in the atomic facts, or the arrangement of atomic facts, or even the state of affairs, not in the rhetoric, but in the logic and grammar connecting fact to facticity and facticity to reality. Or at least truth contingent claim verified against the larger social “body of proof,” the system of beliefs already verified true. The contingently ‘Formally True.’ A proposition or ontological truth claim can be analytically true to itself and yet false in its relationship with the larger sum of the facts: the logical world as the total set encompassing all the facts. That which is at least the social body or social reality – the ‘Formally True’ as the systematised “body of proof” as the sum of the facts. Fact checking the facts… Read more »
If only reality would pick a form and expression it likes and stick to it awhile, we could all sleep easier at night.
The converse is also true. We (in the broadest sense) picked a fixed, immutable, intransigent, and permanent – “aeternal” – form of expression and called it ‘reality.’ Nay, ‘universal reality.’ The expressions of which, said in multifarious ways (‘being’), say nothing whatsoever of the underlying sensorial reality. But if you keep the imagery spinning fast enough, it seems to fool most of the people, all of the time.
Anyway, if you haven’t read McCluhan, please do. It’s all there, when not reduced to a castaway soundbite in a media reality (ditto Debord.) The underlying reality has been “overwritten” and the “ratio of our senses” attuned internally by the various competing media. You could say “the medium is the reality” for most. Internally exiled from our own senses. Hence, the vital flux of the real, tangible, touchable, sensual, etc.
Abandoning mobile phones will get more difficult when online purchasing starts demanding you enter a 6 digit code, sent to your phone, to prove you aren’t buying fraudulently.
It’s clearly in pilot phase at the moment, but it would be the logical next step to coerce people into mobile phone usage.
It can’t force you to carry it around with you if you shop from home though, so the tracking part can be avoided pretty easily right now.
Eh? Shopping from home can’t be tracked and isn’t being used right now to build up your embryonic social credit score?
This didn’t start with lockdown either. In my first UK home shop during lockdown a certain UK supermarket was already recommending ‘Favourites’ which must have come from in-store purchases with a card being stored. In-store purchaes with cash are the only way to go – hence why in-store restrictions aren’t being lifted.
Already happening in the EU with PSD2. Online purchases over 30 euros will now need confirming via bank app on phone. The roll out of the directive isn’t uniform yet but it’s underway.
I would say it is well under way in most sectors of ‘the System’..
I have been unable to access my bank account for a year & a half.. An sms code is required, & the account has been active for 14 years..
The bank, one of Europe’s largest, doesn’t provide live customer support, for ‘security reasons’; the irony being that I would have to PHONE them !! Ha !!
Being phone-shy, I don’t own one, so miss all of those sms codes..
This is “anecdotal”, as usual, but I’ve also noticed a trend of forcing cellphone owners to turn on their cellphones willy-nilly. Before I give my anecdotal examples, I acknowledge in advance that it’s my own fault for providing my cellphone number to business and commercial organizations in the first place– I let the camel’s nose under my tent. Just for background: I got my first cellphone in 2004 or so, when my since-deceased mother was beginning to fail– primarily at the insistence of my siblings, to be more “reachable” in case of emergencies. I wasn’t fascinated enough by it to use it regularly, but after my mother died I kept it because it was handy for keeping in touch to coordinate outings with those siblings. And it has been useful on these infrequent occasions. Perhaps foolishly, once I had it I dutifully supplied my cellphone number– as aggressively “requested”– to my doctor’s… Read more »
The company i worked for provided me a cell phone in 1984, in an attempt to micromanage my work day ? . At the time i thought it slightly ironic but totally ineffective until Apple installed transponders /locating software in their product some years later ?
Happening in India already, OTP. I have to use Indian friends’ credit cards sometimes to make purchases because of this.
‘Fraid I can’t see the existence of the cell phone as a threat. A more direct attack against us is against the food supply: ATTACKS ON FOOD SUPPLY California grows a third of US vegetables and two thirds of its fruits and nuts. It leads all other states in farm income with77,500 farms and ranches. It also is second in production of livestock behind Texas, and its dairy industry is California’s leading commodity in cash receipts. In total, 43 million acres of the state’s 100 million acres are devoted to agriculture. In short what happens here is vital to the nation’s food supply. California had a seven year drought, ending in major 2019 rains which filled dams to capacity– enough water for 5 years. Under Gov Newsome’s administration most of the water has been let out to sea, allegedly to save two threatened species of fish. But this story is… Read more »
Well, there is the question as to whether California is the best place to grow vegetables that need regular rainfall, when no rain falls for six months of the year in Cali.
Olives, grapes, nuts seem more adapted to the California climate than tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, lettuce or field beans.
But if you are going to grow food in California, it’s madness to empty the reservoirs.
the depleted aquifers are the main issue, all for sugary drinks… and other corporate vermin cash accumulation rackets..
it certainly didn’t take long to fuck california… my grandfather lived there in the 1920’s and said it was a paradise, his photographs and reminisces attested to that….
I lived there for a few years in the early 90’s and again in the 00’s…
whilst superficially passable, in reality and just bubbling beneath the surface, it was rancorous shithole.. no wonder the AWFL’s and neck-beards are bailing..
personally I would make them sit it out…. until the ‘logical’ conclusion….
Food can be grown all over the US, but because of cheap shipping, California has replaced scattered small farms and market gardens all over the country. Yes, without California’s crops, it would be hard to get lettuce or strawberries in January, but you know, we lived without that for most of our country’s history. I grew up in the 60s when citrus was still considered a special treat and people received gift boxes of Florida citrus for Christmas.
What amazes me is the number of houses sitting on large lots where people don’t even attempt to grow some of their own food. Yes, it’s hard work, but maybe they could save money on gym memberships. Currently, I live in the UK and grow most of my produce on an allotment, so I walk the talk.
I think for many people the idea of growing some food never pops into their heads. And the time and money people waste on lawns – don’t get me started.
I’m reminded of that classic that does the rounds from time to time – God and Grass. http://www.juliasedibleweeds.com/edible-weeds-flowers/god-and-grass/
I dug up my lawn this winter and now I’ve got potatoes, tomatoes, broccoli, french be
Smart move. Purple sprouting broccoli is a really good one to grow. Sow next month, and it will overwinter then give a crop next spring during the hungry gap period. It’s prolific.
Forgive me being a broken record again with climate engineering. Though I don’t live in California, Dane Wigington of geoengineeringwatch.org does – and he’s been documenting for over a decade the absolutely disastrous results of climate engineering on that state, especially Northern California. There’s been a near constant geoengineered dome of high pressure over Northern California for years, which has devastated the region and added to the almost year-round drought and forest fire season. As Wigington has noted time and again, Gavin Newsome is a horrendous governor. His PR attempts to save endangered species is grossly belied by his willingness to go along with the very conditions which kill countless species through drought and forest fires. BTW, this high pressure dome is used to deflect incoming Pacific moisture from the West in order to keep other areas wetter and cooler. I’d like to link to the Mr Wigington’s website here.… Read more »
US government removal of sulfates over No. America caused Arctic warming. US Clean Air Acts of 1970s and 1990 (by Bush #1) cut massive amounts of sulfates from atmosphere over North America which caused abrupt rise in Arctic temperatures.
April 8, 2009, “Half of recent arctic warming may not be due to greenhouse gases,” Houston Chronicle, by Eric Berger
“According to a new report, half of the recent Arctic warming is not due to greenhouse gases, but rather clean air policies [ie, US Clean Air Acts of 1970s and 1990]. That’s the conclusion of two scientists in a new Nature Geoscience paper (see abstract), which is more deeply outlined in this NASA news release….
The following graphic shows how clean air regulations passed in the 1970s have likely accelerated warming by diminishing the cooling effect of sulfates:

On topic. The National Homicide Service: the words of a man who lost both parents to the NHS euthanasia programme, under cover of Event Covid. The NHS as spawn of the eugenics religion, was the subject of my earlier post. I wrote that the explicit euthanasia protocol, called the Liverpool Care Pathway, aka starving the elderly to death and denying people a sip of water on their deathbed, until their mouths crack open in blisters and their throats dried up so that they could not swallow, was abolished in 2014. I was misinformed. It was quickly replaced with another euthanasia protocol, a cocktail including morphine and midazolam, which the U.S. prison service stopped using in the 1920s on the grounds of cruelty. Matt Hancock, Rockefeller stooge and UK Health Secretary, imported extra doses of the execution drug in preparation for Event Covid. See Hancock talk about his midazolam imports in… Read more »
Note that in the U.S. it has been shown that doctors, lawyers and local bureaucrats conspire to euthanise elderly people and steal their assets through criminal abuse of guardianship laws. In Britain there seems to be a more basic objective of reducing pension and healthcare costs although population thinning has recently heaved into view. In Britain people are stripped by government rules that mandate anyone with assets must pay for their own aged care, until they run out. At which point the state will pay — or, it seems, kill you. This still leaves scope for collusion between care home operators and bureaucrats; or whatever incentive payments may go to NHS consultants (senior doctors with protected status under the founding act of the NHS) for “saving” the NHS money by terminating the elderly. Do they get an extra bonus for the not-so-old? The research by Jacqui Deevoy suggests the promise… Read more »
This may give the impression that the motivation of killing rather than treating is financial. I don’t think so: the founders of the NHS were eugenicists; the NHS has always been part of the eugenics project which in the eyes of people like Julian Huxley was the highest branch of science.
