      A large portion of the population is on medication that dulls the senses and the intellect, Abilify is given out freely to whoever is fooled enough to take the poison, just as huxley predicted the population is being fooled into numbing themselves into submission because they have been convinced that they have mental disorders that may or may not be legitimately in need of medication. I dare say that nobody is need of such a dangerous and ineffective drug as Abilify. The music that is considered popular now is, for the most part, what we might call lacking in intellectual prowess.... THE WORLD IS BRAVE AND IT IS NEW EVERYDAY. BUY BUY BUY SHEEP

      It is the same mechanism at play. Our brains are very much like a computer, we take information in through the senses, process it, and produce an output. So just like people program computers, peoples brains can be programmed through the environment. But I do believe there is more to life than that. Not to sound like a hippie but I have always found that there is more to life and the universe than can be seen. In fact I would go as far as to say the most powerful forces in this world are unseen ones. Look at the invisible hand of the economy, or even your own feelings. The universe is always communicating with us on a whole other level.

Starmer relinquished his position on the the society’s executive but its membership continued to include 5 Labour frontbenchers including shadow chancellor Anneliese Dodds MP.

      I think brave new world will only happen when the greed of big pharma is checked, regulatory agencies like the FDA and CDC are no longer corrupt, and pharma held to liability for any and all issues.

    He talks about pavlovian conditioning with the catalyst being stress in order to hypnotize/manipulate/control a population. Im sure its not the same kind of stress that would be caused by a world wide pandemic, a lock down of the entire world and its economy, being able to interact with other human beings, losing your job, super market shortages. Not that kind of stress. That would be crazy.

      I tend to believe that in a way he still is. Just look at his thoughts and words they are still reverberating around the world. From a hyperphysical perspective his body is not here, but it wasn't his body that we like about him in the first place. We like his ideas and personality and we attribute it to coming from his body.... but if you zoom out, his body is just a bunch of cells interacting, and if you zoom out more its just a bunch of atoms interacting, and if you zoom out more its just energy dancing. Did he make the energy dance in the way it did or did the dancing energy make his physical body?
      I know its a belief system because I can't prove it, but I think we look at the world as a bunch of separate things interacting with other separate things, but it really is just one thing or one substance. Our senses are so limited, we can't see things as they really are, but at a quantum level everything is indistinguishable.

Orwell was issuing a warning with that novel. Huxley is not, nor is he condemning oligarchy. He is merely stating the most efficient model of mass servitude.

Now comes the psychological and physical violation of all of her boundaries and the destruction of any sense of self-worth she has outside of her value to the pimp. This is in preparation to turn her out, she can't have any qualms or sense of self-determination left, it must all be subsumed by the pimp. He decides what she's allowed to do and whether she's done a good job and any notion of refusal is extinguished through manipulation and violence. In the end, she believes she owes it to the pimp to sell her holes and earn for him after all he's done for her and it's not a big deal to let strangers violate the sancitity of her body after all of her boundaries have been destroyed by the pimp.
      They're invading your privacy with background checks. Searching your car, your home, your financial accounts. Usurping the authority of parents, gaslighting your children in indoctrination camps called "schools". Invading your body with mandatory vaccines, drug testing, drunk driving checkpoints. Surveillance is becoming ubiquitious and they're pushing hard to divest you of the last bastions of self-reliance remaining, the right to bear arms and the right to speak your mind without violent response.

    I find it interesting that the United States is the only country on earth that taught this in school, and that it was somehow how an allegorical denunciation of socialism. In fact Huxley was a Fabian Socialist. The Fabian society was founded in 1884, and was what George Orwell had in mind when he wrote 1984, which would have been the 100 year anniversary of its founding. Nucleus book was meant to be taken literally, as we see a lot of it being fulfilled today. Huxley was fond of the idea of Narco-hypnosis, and that's exactly what plagues most Americans today. They're being fed a steady diet of drugs with hypnosis via TV and internet added onto it.

People should be more educated about figures like him, artists like Szukalski and Beksiński. Deep understanding of Herman Hesse, Orwell, and H.P Lovecraft (playing with limits of imagination on the human brain).
    So much mastermind in our culture jet so little understanding of they visions and how they play with reality just so we can try to understand it from pure mind none influence of everything.
    Like Tesla pure flow of cosmic imagination, madness, and far lanes that small portion of civilization dare to step in.
    This artists made inspiration to a small portion, timeless grupe of intellects to understand, they create for future visionists in time.
