    Should Australia “Magnitsky” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu?

    Should Australia “Magnitsky” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders and soldiers involved in genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and other human rights abuses? What could and should the Australian government be doing, especially with its significant majority following the recent federal election? Where are Australia’s red lines when it comes to preventing the world’s worst crimes? #SanctionIsrael #AlboStoptheSiege #AlboStoptheGenocide @albomp @senatorpennywongPlease “Like”, “Subscribe”, “Share” and support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/SeekingJusticePodcast or BuyMeACoffee: buymeacoffee.com/seekingjusticepodcast   Follow The Seeking Justice Podcast™ on social media: Substack: https://substack.com/@seekingjusticepod BlueSky: @seekingjusticepod.bsky.social Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573043997297 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theseekingjusticepodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@justice.seekers?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc Twitter/X: https://x.com/SeekJusticePod Reddit: SeekingJusticePod Rumble: TheSeekingJusticePodcast

    Episode 8 Silicon Valley's New Pro-Apocalyptic Religion - TESCREAL

    In this episode of the Seeking Justice podcast, host Benedict Bloggs, interviews LA-based journalist (with Drop Site News) and data analyst, Nicholas Rodelo, and biotechnologist and tech entrepreneur Keira Havens about Silicon Valley's new Pro-Apocalytic religion: the TESCREAL bundle of ideologies (Transhumanism, Extropianism, Singularitarianism, Cosmism, Rationalism Effective Altruism and Longterminism). The discussion explores:  the origins of this overlapping bundle of ideologies from eugenics and race science, to champions of TESCREAL such as Jeffrey Epstein, Elon Musk and Peter Theil; their future outlook towards "creating God", colonising the universe with "trillions of digital beings" and preparing for the high risk of global annihilation caused by AGI (the clash between "Doomers" versus "Accelerationists"); and, how they have infiltrated Silicon Valley's reckless race towards Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and is Hollywood next. The discussion also explores important philosophical questions regarding the human experience and human existence on Planet Earth including critique the anthropocentric/androcentric views prevalent in these ideologies and discuss the dangers of long-termism and the cult-like mentality fostered by Effective Altruism. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the themes of domination, control, and the implications of artificial intelligence on society. They discuss the nature of power dynamics, the struggle for individuality, and the misconceptions surrounding intelligence and IQ. The conversation also touches on the importance of cooperation, the entitlement present in modern politics, and the limitations of human intelligence. The debate between doomers and accelerationist perspectives on AI development is explored, alongside the consequences of these technologies on human experience and societal structures. Ultimately, the speakers reflect on grief, memory, and the human condition, questioning the fixation on technological advancement at the expense of genuine human connection and understanding. Link to "The TESCREAL bundle: Eugenics and the promise of utopia through artificial general intelligence" by Timnit Gebru and Dr Émile P.
