Every decade after 1947 and before 1999 is a separate parallel universe | |

The 21st century is just a digital parody of the 20th. Too many reboots across the arts and design, films and fashion. We're recycling the same stories and material. In 1999 we entered some kind of simulation reality based on the world as it was in 1999 ------------------------ |

J0RDAN User ID: 75686950 United States 12/03/2018 09:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Every decade after 1947 and before 1999 is a separate alternate reality and a parallel dimension/universe created by a super Quantum computer, a technology acquired by GB after WWII. After 1999, the SIM was programmed so we would experience the new alternate reality as one blob of time and not as a discrete period with its own identity like the decades preceding 1999. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76061188 Please read: Thread: Our simulation started in 1947 Also please read this related preamble that only talks about post-1999: The 21st century doesn't actually exist (and the second part of the 20th century as well). The 21st century is just a digital parody of the 20th. Too many reboots across the arts and design, films and fashion. We're recycling the same stories and material. In 1999 we entered some kind of simulation reality based on the world as it was in 1999. Cars from 2013 look like cars from 2003 The fashion industry recycles the 20s-90s in shorter and shorter cycles. Almost all films nowadays are re-makes, or reboots. Hipsters wear flannel shirts, buy vinyl, dress in eclectic clothing from past decades, they are basically recycling old ideas in shorter and shorter cycles. What we call art nowadays is nothing more than eclectic nostalgia boiled down into a product. History is being packaged and sold to us in streets of gentrified 'urban regeneration'. Starbucks is like the borg implant that assimilates the body of the cities and paves the way for other cold glass shrines to the cult of consumerism. That is what we are left with now, old ideas packaged as new products, not hoverboards or Jetpacks, just cycles of waiting for the next iPhone. The iPhone is like a nostalgia singularity, from sharing childhood memes to your 80s playlists. The illusion of a linear march into the future is a sleight of hand by the advertisers, trying to convince you that there is something new under the sun. Everything since 1999 is derivative, and has a synthetic/plastic quality to it. The plans for the simulation originally came out of WWII. Then the Americans got the data and laid the groundwork for the simulation in the 50s. By the 70s everything had been planned out. Mckenna mentioned that he felt that the formal run of history ended sometime in the early-mid 90s, and then moved into the post modern malaise.

Ohwow! User ID: 43382917 United States 12/04/2018 12:13 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I noticed this when they killed the 60's ground up movement against those that use 18 yr olds for cannon fodder in useless wars, killed our President, rage against the government. They replaced the jeans with disco synthetic clothing in parody of the hippie rebellion and made it chic. No one in the 60's was into looking chic, they were into rebelling against the system.The system killed the protest music of the 60's with a disco ball. I don't think the era we are in now is recycled from any previous era to look different, it is different and it is in numbers with traceable history and ratings, and I don't think most rate anymore with the beast that runs this beast system. The best can be done now, is turn on and drop out (of the system) - oh sht, back to the 60's with a different enemy this time. This electronic grid of control era will only advance never be replaced no matter how people pretend they are in control of all, but in their pretense of originality they get their ideas on computer/media info sites that dictate their choices by coercion to be "unique" which is doublespeak for "conform" |

I thought personal computers like laptops would be holographic by now, not still relying on glass screens. I know lots of people who say they can't remember milestones in their lives prior to the Y2K bullshit. IDK...I definitely think an unknown black man elected to the highest office is some SIM fuckery...way off a natural trajectory. Not even the UK has had a Prime minister of color yet... |
