BEST OF TST 11/2/23 - Alien Semasiography: Language is the Weapon

BEST OF: On this All Soul’s Day we look at animism and paganism as universal languages of nature, science, and religion, as opposed to tribal religions. These universal languages share a relationship with that of math and time, or at least the universal nature of human perception and intuition, which may transcend time. Whereas English speakers see time as being behind and in front, Mandarin speakers see it was vertical. The Greeks saw it as three dimensional. Math, although translatable, is conducted in similar ways. A recent BBC piece proposed how we might communicate with extraterrestrials through language, and although terrestrial aliens may be an archaic idea, the same applies to any otherworldly alien, even dimensionally. For example, those being built in a laboratory, whether from scratch or as vessels for something non-human to inhabit. Yuval Harari, the historian from Israel, even noted this in a recent interview; aliens are from a laboratory and we must unite to prevent their takeover of the planet, which may occur by 2028 - the same date that Samsung expects machines to take over with holograms and digital replicas of the physical world - see 6G white paper. This idea may seem less sleek than certain conspiracies pertaining to “blue beams” but nonetheless could represent a sort of fake alien invasion manufactured by man in order to unite the world. The Google Hive Mind is expected by 2030, after all, and many futurists expect humans to simply merge fully with machines to prevent, erroneously, the final takeover. Meanwhile, we have already seen how Google, Facebook, and OpenAI have been dealing with their systems creating independent languages. Some of these ideas were discussed in the 2016 movie Arrival, wherein the heptapod creatures use semasiography to convey ideas that transcended our understanding of time and language. Their goal was use the ‘weapon’, i.e., language, broken into twelve parts, to teach humanity. In the real world, people like Yuval seem to be pushing unity for an entirely different reason. The heptapod language interestingly resembles variations of the ENSO, a circular ink drawing that symbolizes beauty in imperfect, the circle of life, and connection. Its inversion thus represents ugliness of perfection, a circle of death, and disconnection.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.
