Yup. They are using devices (among other things) to harvest human consciousness.

And regarding “And in the process, we’ve redefined what it means to be human—without ever consenting to the change.”, sadly, we have all been tricked into giving our consent. The time to start revoking our consent is NOW.

This is a very powerful article, which resonated with me. I would like to request your consent to read it in its entirety (in my natural voice, no AI) for my Sunny Reads Haven channel on YouTube. With credit to you and links to your substack. Shall I send you an email?

Thank you for this. Amazing!

As a boomer that's never had a smartphone, I really appreciate your thoughts on this matter. I do have a flip phone, but never had a smartphone.

I thought of you this morning when reading this: https://www.theinteldrop.org/2025/05/06/classified-a-recursive-advance-on-unified-field-theory-and-the-possibility-of-eternal-life/

I do happy dances every day that I have never had a cell phone. And I only use My computer to share awareness that We do not have to consent to the mess the moneyed psychopaths are creating for Us. It is My "job." And read articles like Yours.

Good piece!!!

Just as pleases the moneyed psychopaths in control… They laugh at Us a lot.

Maybe We should solve for Them… I offer suggestions here;

We've put our children on a downward trajectory. Cellphones at school, cellphones attached to the hand, screens everywhere meant to distract. I don't know why so many parents buy their young children smartphones. I love what your toddler said to you. Keep up the great work!
