I'm pretty sure it goes beyond any single religious order or group but I'm sure they're part of it.

I'm not sure this is the case everywhere because when I see ingredients at the grocery store, they're usually more expensive than that. Plus, when I also live with family because your budget is almost nonexistent (since the job market in cybersecurity is a nightmare and I can't seem to actually find anything, not even entry level IT), that also means I have to rely on what they do for meals, meaning I end up eating WAY more fast food than I want to eat. It sucks in every way and I don't know a way out of it unless I happen upon a miracle and actually land a job, but things aren't looking good on that front. I keep trying but yeah, it's tough to stay positive.

I agree entirely. I'm also integrating this concept in the novel series I'm working on. I've been interested in 'alternate history' ever since I heard the Phantom Time theory.

You're already using one of them. Other solutions include using as many decentralized tools as possible, take your privacy seriously, and get the word out. Also, vote intelligently in any upcoming elections.

Buy your music. Support the artists. If you aren't into the mainstream slop, there's a decent chance your favorite bands are on Bandcamp or are releasing music on CDs. Download FLAC from Bandcamp or rip lossless from your CDs. Own the things you buy.

The Tartaria theories are extremely intriguing. Not sure it's particularly feasible even if history has been skewed, but man, it's interesting.

The internet and your privacy are under attack. People need to wake up, take charge and stop this before it goes any further.

Sad but true.

Can't speak for the show but Haunted Cosmos has a few episodes on the place. I haven't had the chance to listen to them but they might be worth a go. Haunted Cosmos is a fantastic podcast in general.

The biggest attack on internet privacy and free speech that I've ever seen. It won't stop with the UK and not enough people are paying attention to take action.

Something tells me that decentralized social systems like Nostr and the Fediverse are going to be absolutely crucial in the coming days. #privacy #socialmedia #nostr #uk
