City of the Damned




The people have been spoiled by wealth and ease

The city is a place to hide for the damned

Wicked hearts full of evil

Fearful and suspecting

Not able to discern evil or good

As they judge everyone according to status and money

They’ve lost something important

Yet are unaware of the tragedy

They’ve been conditioned

They’ve been brainwashed

By a targeted social engineering program

The city is full of pride

Haughty people in vain pursuits

People who love money and pleasure

People who don’t fear God, nor think they are mortal

They are ignorant of their miserable state

They mistake it for a cloak of glory

When it is a rotten rag that stinks like sin

Fake smiles and conversations

Fearful motives as they accuse and manipulate

They destroy and cause chaos

With their lies and deceit

All those who have discernment should stay far away

From the city of the damned

Thrown in the Trash by NewsBreak

Out with the old, in with the robots. My time writing for NewsBreak is now over. The upstart news app used writers like me to get their bandwagon going, and now it has discarded us after becoming respectable in the realm of news. I can’t blame them when it comes to me, as I’ve been writing opinion pieces exclusively for the last year. I started out writing local news articles about Oregon, but changed my strategy because of time constraints. I would take news articles from Oregon and rewrite them basically; not with AI, just with my noggin. Some did well, others were stalled by their algorithm. I could never tell if an article would do well or not. All in all, I made more money with NB than any other writing effort online besides copywriting. This brings me a lot of satisfaction with my time there, but sadly, it has come to an end. Recently, they sent me an email explaining they are going to make all the contributors reapply to be a contributor, as their strategy has changed; something...

Is Efficiency More Valuable than Reality?

Growth requires failures and errors, yet technology is removing these for efficiency and convenience. Maybe the most important question 21st-century citizens should ask is: “What level of technology do we need to live healthy and balanced lives in this world?” Why do we need online technology at all? Why do we need smartphones? Why do we need AI? And, importantly, what price will society pay for these technologies? Is the price worth whatever benefits these technologies offer? At this point, the prudent answer would be no, they are not worth the price, because, for one, they aren’t necessary, and two, they are detrimental to our character, development, and individual freedoms. The main theme for the integration of online automation technologies in business and personal use is efficiency; it will streamline processes, take away mundane tasks, and all without pesky human error. The problem is, people have a hard time arguing with efficiency, but is it the most important thing in life — d...

Is Your Writing System Holding You Back from Being Productive?

I think mine is. When I first started writing online back in 2013, I wrote for only one website called Allvoices — a contributor news site. How simple my online writing system was then compared to what it has turned into over the last 12 years. Now, I have too many sites to syndicate on, too many social media sites to share to, and overall just too large of a writing system to be productive. Crazy part is I’ve shaved it down to what it is now; it was larger and even bulkier before. One thing I won’t do is give up on trying to build a system that enhances instead of hinders my online writing efforts; I’m not there yet as it stands. I wonder how much more I would write if I didn’t have to spend an hour syndicating and sharing each article? If I could just write an article and maybe spend 5 minutes on sharing and syndicating it? As it is now, I have five platforms to syndicate with and ten social sites to share on. My system hinders my writing and keeps me from wanting to write because of...

Future Freedom = Being Without Online Technology

Online technology was created to control humanity. One thing we can all agree on is that online/smart technology will only increase and become more integrated into our lives in the future, even at an exponential rate, as technological advancement reaches singularity. Therefore, we can conclude with deductive reasoning that our individual freedom will only be achieved without said technology. If this technology, manifested with AI automation, is going to be used to control us in every aspect of our lives, then freedom will not exist. Freedom is not just doing everything the controllers tell you to do or get punished, it is being free to do what you want do, under the natural law of treating others as you would want to be treated (do no harm physically to others, don’t steal or damage property/possessions of others, etc.). The near future is going to be defined by how technology is used to control humanity; it will be done under the guise of something other than control, but that is the ...
