"How many angels can dance on the head of an open source pin?" ...

Not long ago I stated that the U.S. has, relatively quietly indeed!, become for the most part a technology-based police state in which business, akademia and politicians are in bed in such promiscuous ways that it is hard to see where the leg and toes of one starts and the rear end of another ends. Gringos are coming to terms out of their own self delusions about being a country of "well-intended", "freedom-loving" "good Christians" whose ideals are forever cast in stone by some sacrosanct, fool-proof Constitution, being trusted with carrying out God’s mandate on earth and darüberhinaus in the universe.

They seem to have been having an uneasy time redefining their beliefs, where they stand. Hmm! What exactly does that "freedom of speech" thing mean? What could they effing know in those times when people wrote on paper using a feather pen and illuminating themselves with spilling wax candles? They even thought of lightnings as expressions of God’s anger and seem to have had qualms about the French monarchy, but what did they mean?, aren’t the British the ones with their silly royalty? ...

Even a "delayed Yes, sir!" IT company such as twitter first stated that they would not participate in the Alex Jones witch hunt to then "reconsider" their stand not to be perceived as opposing the global control conglomerate carte of the NWO.

As it would be expected to happen in the U.S. the underlying narrative seems unclear on the surface at times confusing to the extent that it seems to belong to narratives during the inquisition, but forceful undercurrents are ultimately responsible for moving the waters and winds and moving them in certain directions.

Of course, social and cultural awareness once a while spike trying to make sense of things, using old words with new meanings in very weird ways I have found quite philosophically esoteric, yet amusing.

“The Lerna project’s choice is, moreover, destructive of one of the deep norms that keeps the open source community functional—keeping politics separated from our work.”
