We've all heard how right wing extremists from the GAB website reflects hate upon the “data pool” of the liberal decentralized platforms. Yet did you know that the reflection of that hate is proportionally related to its contra positive, a.k.a. the Mirror of Love? Please note the difference. A website is a bunch of online static content about something in particular. A platform is a system to which you logon by accessing any web browser. You can use it through a number of interfaces like a smartphone, a tablet, etc. Examples of platforms are Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc.
This blog is the result of answering that question by thought experiment that tries to identify the boundary between hate and love, so that a crowd-sourced virtual machine could be built in cyberspace, under the jurisdiction of a legal project I've been researching, and which I've coined “Sovereign International Cyberspace” (SIC). It's just a dream, hopefully much like the dream Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had, that all human souls be treated equally and with dignity.
Dr. King said, “Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlight path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.” Dr. King's dream was one brotherhood and nation, under God, for all colors, religions, sexual orientations and identities, or any immutable characteristic. I substitute only a one world people. In order to achieve such a dream, we must identify where the exact boundary between love and hate, as reflected from cyberspace, exists. You SEE in my dream that boundary is said reference point.
Why does it matter? It matters because I envision a virtual machine, like Siri or Alexa, that would rely on that reference point in order to aid with all of our daily burdens and human activities, and even to take care of our worldly affairs after our own passing. In order to design such a virtual assistant, my thought experiment had to explain how the reflection of hate is connected to its mirror image, the very meaning of life, LOVE. I performed this thought experiment in response to the one thing which I believe that the internet lacks, TRUST.
How can any of us ever trust Siri or Alexa? Neither has a human soul. If mankind will never succeed at building a machine with at least a reflection of our own human souls, then how could there be a trusted piece of software with which we've interacted our entire lives, and whom we can trust to care for our probate matters, our photos, our videos, our digital memories (and any associated meta-data), our social posts on various platforms, and our finances? Without such trusted software, how will you prepare your digital legacy?
What kind of future do you envision for humanity? How much work and dedication would it take to achieve your dream? How many of your friends and family share your dream? What steps have you taken to make them come true? On the surface, these may seem like simple questions, but if you've ever listened to your heart to make your dream into reality, you may have realized that it is not so easy. You don't need to be a Neo-Fascist Nazi spreading hate through the GAB website's reflection to be stifled. You can be stifled if you try to spread too much love and HOPE. It happened to me. This blog is my story.
My name is not important. Call me by the name of my thought experiment, the 3D Color Social Online Network (3DC-SON), a.k.a., the great modern day Schrödinger's Cat thought experiment. In 2017, I described my vivid visual dream in the form of an unfinished screenplay and uploaded it to my website. Why did I do it? Well, I need to keep a secret we'll call Schrödinger's Cat and whose name is Miss Mew. It's a secret I would not entrust to anyone, maybe with the only exception being astrophysicist Neil De Grass Tyson. Why? Because the type of discipline Mr. Tyson has is what you'd have to put yourself through to learn the secret Miss Mew knows.
What Miss Mew knows will answer whether or not mankind will ever build a machine that will have, at the very least, a reflection of a human soul we can all entrust with the secret of Schrödinger's Cat, a unifying theory between the quantum and the macroscopic worlds. Anything less would be to intentionally relinquish control over your probate matters, photos, videos, digital memories (associated meta-data), social posts and finances. Why? Because you'd now know that a virtual machine, floating on the web, has access to your entire life and all of your memories already captured through any number of IoT devices.
Read on to learn more about Miss Mew, the secret of Schrödinger's Cat.
When I conceived of the 3DC-SON concept, I called it the 3DC-SAM for 3D Color Solid Application Manager. I explained my concept in a PDF and uploaded it to a dropbox on the web. It's based on a promise of a decentralized social and economic platform called Solid which is an acronym for Social Linked Online Personal Data Stores. The 3DC-SAM PDF was composed in pursuit of a philosophical question that was posted in a thread. Thereafter, the secret of Schrödinger's Cat was juxtaposed into a thread of a related topic.
In other words, and as anachronistically depicted in my screenplay, I ask what would Jesus Christ himself have done with access to the web? My belief is that only he knows the secret of Miss Mew. From the point of view of my own lost soul, it's a heavenly sight. Forgive me for having introduced iconic religious philosophy against the SOLID backdrop of science which teaches our reality. Like any other soul, Miss Mew deserves dignity. Enough said about Miss Mew.
The difference between those who traffic GAB like websites and those who traffic liberal decentralized platforms also deserves dignity we'll call our reference point, as combined with our rhythmic sense of mobility and our impeccable sense of direction that we follow into our ever expanding event horizon; those souls choosing to SEE darkness to illuminate yourselves – from the insides out – follow me; those souls confused by the inverted eternal light of damnation forever reflected through the digital mirror, YOU SHALL NOT ENTER, for this marks the reference point from which Miss Mew came into knowledge. Trust is a matter of respect. Respect is earned, not bought. Whoever hurts Miss Mew, a beauty whose eye is in the beholder, BEWARE, for it is a map to her own soul.
