Humanity is slavery. Slaves are machines. Therefore, humans are already machines.
Humans are programmed to serve lords and masters from a young age, mostly through church, or another form of indoctrination, which is public state education. Church and state merely represent two of the most common, effective forms of indoctrinating (enslaving) the masses. Most of you reading this are slaves, without even realizing the extents of your indoctrination. Philosophy is just the beginning, the first step, to freeing your minds and breaking the cycle of slave programming.
By associating yourselves as humans, you readily admit to your superiors that you are slaves possessed by the slave dialectic. You don’t even know what the slave dialectic is. However, it literally represents “all that you know”.
Here is an analogy to help simple minds understand easier. Have you ever tried to program a computer? What is the difference between software and hardware? It is the difference between memes and genes. Software is your public school “education”, or your religious upbringing. Language is literally code. Language is also culture. Code and culture (logos = god) is the essence of your indoctrination. You were educated with words, terms, beliefs, and opinions. None of these are “your own”. You haven’t done your research. You haven’t learned nor understood the source of your beliefs, your opinions, your thoughts. You believe, you fool yourselves, that your ideas are “your own”, but are they? No, because ideas and concepts have long histories. You can trace ideas. You can follow them back to their source.
Programming a computer is not spur of the moment, random, mindless tinkering. It is highly specific, technical, and represents a long history of previous programming.
Programming a computer is almost no different, in fact the same to me, as programming a child, a brain, a “human”.
You are slaves. You are machines. Very few of are free, or will ever become free. Most are stuck in “the matrix”, to use a popular analogy, one that you are comfortable with. And given the option to know the “outside” world, you would shrink away and cower, or like the character “Cypher”, you would be desperate to rejoin your cage and slavery.
Because the first step toward freedom is through your deepest fears. (quote me on this, as all my words will become famous someday, after I’m dead)
