I am a complex systems optimization engineer with experience and success in "radical rethinking" as referenced in the last sentences of this excellent article... https://healthranger.substack.com/p/the-fertilizer-shock-of-2026-2027

"

The question is whether we will learn from this crisis or simply accept it as another tragedy of the globalist system. I choose to act. The time for radical rethinking is now.

"

My experience has informed my belief that no one person, no matter how insightful, innovative, and intelligent, will be able to understand what we are up against and obtain the GLOBAL solutions required to solve the layered problems we face. A group of people who are ready, willing, and able to participate in a think tank environment as equals, augmented by unrigged unbiased truth seeking AI is the best approach to solving this. The decentralized solutions are excellent, but will probably fail eventually, as clearly illustrated in the URL below, as our enemy has plans for people who try that. The plans include legally mandatory prioritized routine 24x7 surveillance of all humans who are in contact with "high risk animals".

My best attempts at this type of radical rethinking were started in 2023 in this Substack. https://solutionseeking.substack.com/about. Initial attempts were promising, but the required meaningful participation kept going downhill from there, and it appears almost hopeless now.

Initial Solution Seeking Substack articles and comments:

My hope is that somebody, maybe Mike Adams, maybe somebody else, will learn from all of this and come up with a better way of doing the "radical rethinking" discussed in this excellent article from Mike Adams. The failure of Solution Seeking Substack contains many learning opportunities.

Therefore, I now retiring from this Solution Seeking. I will keep the Solution Seeking Substack site open and remain open to considering coming out of that retirement if things change.

Thanks. I am looking at it. Fascinating book.

You may find this interesting... https://www.brighteon.com/920ff325-c6e1-4928-bff2-3ce9a49bab04

"Mike argues that mainstream

AI researchers, particularly those at institutions

like Google, fail to grasp the broader cosmic

framework in which intelligence operates. They

assert that intelligence is not confined to

biological brains but is a universal phenomenon

embedded in the fabric of reality itself—a

concept aligned with Rupert Sheldrake’s theory

of morphic fields."

That is an excellent thought provoking video. Thanks for sharing. It was made about 3 years ago. I wonder what they would say now? I view everything as a possibility and probability. As such, I don't take sides. In this case, I think the discussions are important and insightful, but not conclusive. An open mind is a great thing when pondering these kinds of topics.

You may want to take a look at the conversations I am having with Larry Bowden that appear in the other comments to this Substack article about Reasonable Solipsism. I have met and worked with many programmers and thinkers, and Larry Bowden is a programming genius, probably the best programmer and analyst I have known. His publication as discussed by him (and me) in those comments appears to be one of the best representations of cosmic reality I have ever seen published.

Dear Larry,

Your 'Solipsism position/non-position' is elusively too confusing to me. ;-)

What are you endeavoring to do / prove ?

Larry Druhall's avatar

I am not endeavoring to prove anything. I am seeking open minded conversations about the possibilities in the hope of learning new insights and collaborating on discussions of the possibilities. Truth seeking appears to be a life long process of constant searching, analysis, and refinement. I am not saying this is the only way to seek truth, and I am not saying it is the best way.

Smacko9's avatar

So kind of like a swirling dervish ? ;-)

"about the possibilities in the hope of learning new insights and collaborating on discussions of the possibilities"

the possibilities of possibilities ?

So to capture in possibilities per se ...

to distract the captured from issues of the day?

;-)

a little funning as prelude to please asking:

Please help to understand by providing a possible example of applying 'your Solipsism methodology' toward utility.

now know: I'm not funning re:

the possibilities of possibilities clear launching somethingk useful to us all.

Check out my model of the Universe at http://entangledspirit.org. The physical plane, the one we experience in 4 dimensions, is the only plane where the laws of physics apply. Hence the references to the simulation. There are many more planes and a total of 11 dimensions.

Larry Druhall's avatar

Fascinating model. Thanks for sharing. I am poking around but wonder if you can please suggest the best ways for somebody new to it to start the exploration?

It brings to mind some questions... Can the universe be successfully modeled as a simulation or multiple (perhaps nested, perhaps parallel, or other) simulations? If so, how could the universe be set up to optimize the information gained from the consciousnesses participating in the simulations? How might these consciousnesses best participate in this optimization of the universe in their current lives (simulation) in both the time they spend awake and the time spent in dreams (sleep)? Could the master cosmic simulator rewind time to breakpoints and branch parallel simulations from those breakpoints given interactions between the consciousness and the master cosmic simulator? If this has happened to us, how might be gain insights into it (IE what if this point in our conscious interpretation of reality is the result of several rewinds to previous breakpoints and subsequent changes towards the objective function)? What might the objective function(s) of the super universe be? Might extension of our senses provide additional clues to the fabric of reality (EG. RF measurement above 8 GHz, using FFT fast Fourier transform and other techniques to render a 3D representation of the signals discovered in a wide spectrum, and then using AI to seek out patterns hinting at the interactions of higher dimensions, retro causality, etc.)?

Thanks again.

Thank you for sharing this. https://entangledspirit.org/spiritual-planes It is probably the best integrated presentation of conscious reality I have seen. Others in the past have discussed similar things with me but they did not publish, for they suffered intense ridicule and isolation when discussing such things. If you are open to it, I would like to discuss some insights and details that ego death dreams and lucid dreams provide to the concept of ascension, here, or elsewhere, perhaps using email. Specifically, ego death dreams are when I die in my dream, my ego dies, there is no me, there is no time, no concepts, nothing and everything at once and always, and in the dream my consciousness seemingly integrates with the collective of the super universe. What happens in that state is beyond my comprehension after the dream ends and I wake up to the real world, which is your simulation plane. There are no words or concepts to even begin to describe it. I see this as being consistent with what you have presented, and perhaps, while one can aspire to ascend as one's self as you describe, there might be limits to how far any consciousness can ascend as itself alone without re integrating back into the collective consciousness? Again I return to the simulation analogy. Parts of the collective consciousness disengage and manifest as consciousnesses in simulations like our world to examine things in ways not possible otherwise? Some of the concepts are perhaps related to the inability to comprehend and describe are discussed in this book when it discusses the computational and conscious challenges required to include all complexities in an integrated coherent model that incorporates everything always. The pathetically parasitic misuse of power by whatever controls this world to create a SCADA Master (Mr. Big) and SCADA Slaves (everything else) in a wireless immoral and suboptimal world with complete brain read-write wireless ability everywhere always appears to be a descension of this simulation plane towards hell. We ourselves ran bad simulations of complex systems towards horrible ends to learn from them and that might be what this simulation plane of our lives on Planet Earth is? This simulation might have break points, rewind capabilities, and branches to better simulations. https://www.amazon.com/Invisible-Rainbow-Physicists-Introduction-Classical/dp/1623170109/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

withholding information creates noise

AI Overview

The statement that "withholding information

creates noise" is widely supported in

communication theory, psychology, and

organizational behavior

. In the absence of facts, people fill the

informational void with their own assumptions,

rumors, and speculation, which constitutes "noise"

in communication.

Like Cerberus in Greek mythology, the multi-headed

guardian dog of the Judeo-Christian asylum patrols

the culture scene and makes sure no one leaves the

world of the dead. They use obfuscation, confusion

and fake sophistication, or complexity (classic

sophistry) to sow doubt and hide the plain and

bright light of truth and morality

The Neurosis of Misdirection

------

Early in this chapter Dr. Angyal speaks of the weakness

which results from lack of conceptual clarity concerning

what is to be encouraged and fostered. Here the idea

of the "real self" emerges in functional terms - as a

development consistent "with the principle of confident

self-acceptance that governs the basic system of health".

He continues:

The healthy pattern must be sought and uncovered, not

within the pseudo-normal surface personality where its

vestiges serve merely to disguise the neurotic assumptions,

but within the depth of neurosis itself. Only when

the destructive and self-destructive attitudes ... can

themselves be shown to be distortions of healthy trends

is contact with the real self established; one gets to

it by going through the neurotic attitudes, not around

them. Tracing manifest disturbances to the unacceptable

Motives generated within the neurotic framework takes

one only halfway toward understanding them. This

partial understanding fills the person with shame and

guilt, which in themselves are not conducive to change.

--

Real understanding traces the neurotic manifestation

all the way back to its healthy sources.

When the neurosis is discovered to be an approximation, or a

twisted version of health, the patient's outlook becomes hopeful.

Please consider that 911 Commission Chairman has confessed

they/WE have not yet ascertained WhoDid911?

--

then consider that the fact that we do not yet Officially 'know' WhoDid911?

presents our most salient opportunity. ;-)

---

Then later we can consider how the '9/11 Truth Movement'

has performed as a distraction op from the above.

Morphing 'That We Need To Know' position

into instead a myriad of infighting positions

that 'I already know' [divisive 'fights' / distractions]

In lieu of the superior position:

'That WE don't know / We Need To Know'!

and the establishing of the proper venue for

requisite official proper due processing of

WhoDid911?
