Apparently, the advent of Google AI as a first presentation to Google searches is ruining the business connections of Google ads lately.

People are just looking at the AI answer and no further.

You are becoming Cassandra, perhaps?

I suggest to read "Mass Psychology of Fascism" written by W. Reich as a road map of what is happening in the "memesphere" or, with an older term, in the psychology of the masses.

No way of settle back, we are running on a collective train and what we see is a symptom of something not the root maladies, extermination too is a symptom as a fever: it's a form of apoptosis, the elimination of "unwanted" elements....

As usual the "swelling" tissue is the most probable target, socially and internationally we could look at the classes that are getting an increase of resources (blood) abnormal for a steady state working. Classes more rich incrementally faster, nation ballooning too fast in some area and similar, as rule we had seen it in the manufacturing in China, finance in the USA and some other countries, populace around the world (reentering but historically we are a lot), rich exponentially richer because "money make money" an so on.

The body is reacting at a scale outside the cell level, drive and pump for prepare himself to a fever and a restructuring, a "growth fever" i suppose but can also be a terminal disease to a form of society to make room to something other.

Its a good book, strangely comforting on understanding how the evil in our species uses genocide. They are tragically nothing new.

I can attest that the book is difficult to read at times, but it is worth understanding how exterminations have arisen in history and the parallels in our ever-warming world today. We are heading towards the critical 2.7 C rise above preindustrial times in the next 35 years. This is Not a problem that will hold off till 2100.

It's literally sitting on my night stand, waiting to be read. I fear I don't currently have the mental/emotional stamina to withstand it, so, as with many things in my life, it sits there and mocks me.

I tried to buy it on Amazon kindle twice and it didn't work twice, they tagged the book as 'not available'.
