The Silicon Priesthood: Freemasonry, AI and God In the Machine

May 20, 2026 | By AD News Network

Freemasonry is a sublime religion of knowledge, a veiled temple where the pursuit of light transcends dogma, ritual veils Enlightenment reason, and the initiate climbs toward mastery over self and cosmos. Apparently, that's the background. The worship of reason seeking esoteric knowledge. Like in C.S. Lewis' essay The Inner Ring. The hidden elite. The idea could bleed over into Freemasonry. They just continue repeating the same shit for the rest of us century after century. The core of Freemasonry is not mere fraternity but gnosis: the sacred quest to decode the universe's hidden architecture, symbolized by the compass, square, and the all-seeing eye. You have been squared by Freemasonry. Turned into a stone might be a better description. This ancient network of influence, forged in stone guilds and illuminated in Enlightenment salons, never faded. It has evolved. Today, its ethos pulses through the silicon veins of artificial intelligence (AI) and data centers where millions of hard drives on racks are whirring 24 hours a day.

We must come to terms with what is going on...

Editor's note: ...between President Trump and Congressman Massie. It is imperative that every American understand that voting is NOT going to help Americans fight their way out of these present circumstances. Americans are going to have to recognize that old families, old relationships, old obligations between Americans MUST be restored and brought forward and ALL Americans MUST stand together as a people and as a nation. Voting is financial terrorism - against you. There is absolutely no way to vote ourselves out of these circumstances because the liberal democratic systems Americans are using were created by the financial class themselves. You cannot extricate yourself from raw financial power by voting in this predator and prey ecosphere. You are in a game and the board is rigged because the financialists created the game and they tweak the rules as they play - YOU LOSE.

The modern rentier class has become one of...

Editor's note: ...the most corrosive forces and increasingly hated classes in the American economy: a wealthy elite extracting wealth not through productive labor, innovation (except massive multi-billion dollar data centers with the US Treasury being raped to finance them), or nation-building, but through ownership, speculation, monopolization, and political access (see The Crisis Finance Capitalism Can't Escape). As housing, healthcare, rent, energy, and basic living costs spiral upward, millions of ordinary Americans are squeezed dry so a tiny circle of financiers, corporate landlords, contractors, lobbyists, and political insiders can accumulate ever larger fortunes. For many Americans, Washington increasingly resembles a feeding trough for connected elites, where public office is transformed into a profit machine and taxpayer money flows upward into private hands while the US debt crisis has begun. The result is a system that feels less like a republic serving its people and more like a rent-extraction economy engineered by these "fucking kleptocratic opportunists" enriching themselves while the country itself deteriorates.

The Black Hole Devouring Western Economies

By Islander Reports | May 17, 2026

There’s a massive black hole devouring the Western economies, and it’s been expanding for decades. Year after year, it pulls in huge amounts of money that could have gone toward building real infrastructure, new factories, better technology, and actual productive growth, only to pump it straight into ever higher home prices.

California no longer governs like a state attempting...

Editor's note: ...to control spending. It governs like a harvesting machine that consumes revenue faster than society can produce it. Every economic innovation eventually becomes another target for extraction. Homes are taxed. Fuel is taxed. Income is taxed. Property is taxed. Energy is taxed. Automobiles are taxed. Utilities are taxed. Food is taxed. Now even the digital tools required to work, create, communicate, and survive in the modern economy are being pulled into Sacramento's revenue net. The message is unmistakable: nothing productive will remain untaxed once government dependency on endless spending reaches critical mass. What makes the proposal especially revealing is the timing. Californians already face crushing living costs, out of control rent, failing infrastructure in major cities, visible urban decay, mass retail theft, corporate flight, and one of the largest population outflows in modern American history (see Here's Where Wealth Is Moving In America). Yet instead of confronting the structural failures driving people away, the political class behaves like an empire in decline, squeezing harder as the tax base weakens. The software tax is not merely about revenue. To critics, it symbolizes a government so financially unbalanced it can no longer distinguish between economic vitality and a resource to be harvested until exhaustion.

Editor's note: In the book This Our English Civilization, the peoples of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales (and Lithuania) share a deep civilizational inheritance shaped by more than a thousand years of history, law, culture, and struggle. The book presents the decline of national identity, sovereignty, and historical memory as one of the defining crises of the modern age, claiming that globalization, financial power, and cultural fragmentation have weakened the foundations of the English-speaking world. This English civilization's survival depends on their people possessing the will to defend and preserve their cultural inheritance for future generations. This not only goes for England but America as well.

Unite the Kingdom rally goes ahead, despite Starmers' best efforts to disparage and ban attendees

The Unite the Kingdom rally is taking place today.

Despite Keir Starmer’s best efforts to discourage and ban people from attending, under the banner "Four Nations. One Kingdom. Under God," a huge crowd from across the United Kingdom and further afield is gathering in London to highlight the destruction Starmer and his cronies are causing, and to stand up for their rights, freedoms and their culture.

State employees in Nebraska may be discovering...

Editor's note: ...that the era of taxpayer-funded joyrides, liquor store detours, and clocked-in side trips has abruptly collided with an inconvenient new invention called GPS tracking. According to reports from the Nebraska Auditor of Public Accounts, local Nebraska television outlets, Fox News Digital, and The Wall Street Journal, Nebraska State Auditor Mike Foley has used GPS tracking data to investigate alleged misuse of taxpayer-funded vehicles by state employees, uncovering personal errands, liquor store visits, and discrepancies between timesheets and vehicle activity. This goes equally well for all state employees in all fifty states. Nebraska in case anyone needs a reminder, is a red state. Now, about those roughly 2.4 million civilian federal employees...imagine the fraud, waste and abuse at that level? The people claiming to own everything need to be put in their place and contracted to manage systems for the public good, with standard job oversight, and they need to be fired when they abuse their job description. Corporate and intergenerational wealth has taken on obscene proportions.

The United States of Lockheed Martin

Editor's note: How much more of this obscenity are the American people are going to tolerate? In the UK No Tax For War argues that ordinary citizens are being forced to finance endless foreign wars through taxation without meaningful public consent. The movement promotes peaceful civil resistance, political pressure, and organized opposition to military spending, claiming taxpayers should not bankroll wars that fuel civilian suffering and global instability. Supporters believe Americans should replicate similar anti-war movements and tax reform as frustration grows over trillions of public dollars flowing into overseas conflicts while economic circumstances continue deteriorating in the US.

The Human Node: Inside the Expanding World of Bio-Digital Convergence

How artificial intelligence, biometric systems, and networked biology are quietly reshaping the relationship between humans and technology

May 14, 2026 | AD News Network

"If you think this world is bad, you should see some of the others." - Philip K. Dick

Long before terms like artificial intelligence, Internet of Bodies, neural networks, transhumanism, and bio digital convergence entered mainstream discussion, science fiction writer Philip K. Dick was already exploring worlds where human beings struggled to distinguish authentic reality from technologically engineered systems designed to monitor, shape, and redefine human existence itself. His novels envisioned societies dominated by invisible architectures of surveillance, synthetic identities, corporate power, artificial consciousness, and manipulated perception long before modern digital infrastructure made such concepts feel technologically plausible. Today, as AI systems, biometric networks, wearable computation, cloud based infrastructure, and bioelectronic technologies increasingly merge with everyday life, many of Dick's once speculative themes no longer read like distant fiction, but like an unsettling philosophical framework for understanding the direction of emerging technological civilization.

A growing ideological divide appears to be emerging...

Editor's note: ...inside Washington's power structure as newer nationalist Christian factions associated with figures like Pete Hegseth challenge older establishment religious and political networks long tied to bipartisan elite circles, including groups connected to the Fellowship Foundation known as "The Family." Tensions between internationalist institutions, traditional Catholic influence, and a rising movement of militant evangelical nationalism that views the Pentagon, government, and American identity through a more openly civilizational and religious lens are growing. This tension reflects a deeper battle over ideology, loyalty, and the future direction of American power. When political leaders or military figures use language suggesting opponents "deserve no mercy" under divine authority, it can resemble the irrationality seen in many forms of religious extremism throughout history, including radicalized interpretations of Christianity and Islam: the belief that violence is morally purified or justified because it serves a sacred cause. Right, after 2,000 years you would think the Abrahamic religions would upgrade their eschatology.

"U.S. troops would inflict "overwhelming violence upon those who deserve no mercy... We ask this with bold confidence in the name of Almighty Jesus Christ." - Pete Hegseth

The Philosophically Bankrupt AI Race Toward an Informational (Data) Black Hole

Editor's note: Philosopher Jason Reza Jorjani has explored the idea that the accelerating expansion of artificial intelligence ("creating God"), planetary scale data centers, and computational systems could represent more than a technological transformation, framing them instead as the construction of an "immense synthetic architecture capable of reshaping human consciousness" and reality itself. Drawing from themes connected to the simulation theory, Jorjani speculates that the relentless accumulation of data and machine processing power could eventually create a kind of "informational singularity, metaphorically comparable to a black hole, where meaning, autonomy, and even human perception are absorbed into an opaque computational system beyond democratic control or human comprehension." While the concept remains philosophical rather than scientific, the warning reflects growing real world concerns surrounding the enormous energy demands of hyperscale data centers, the centralization of information within governments and corporations, the militarization of AI, and the increasingly irreversible global race to dominate artificial intelligence development despite mounting fears over surveillance, loss of human agency, systemic instability, and the inability of political institutions to slow technological escalation once massive economic and geopolitical incentives are in motion. Critics of artificial intelligence with good reason warn that despite acknowledged risks, the geopolitical and economic race for technological dominance has created a system of technological inevitability in which governments and corporations who are philosophically bankrupt continue escalating AI development regardless of long term consequences.

The cost of gasoline just jumped overnight from $3.89 a gallon to $4.28 a gallon in my state of residence (Georgia) and everyone among the ignorant masses is wondering why. Gas prices in Georgia were sitting at around $2.25 a gallon before the Iran war started on Feb. 28, so that's a near doubling of the cost of travel in just a six-week timeframe.

Any serious meaningful reform of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)...

Editor's note: ...faces resistance not only because of tax policy itself, but because the IRS's enormous institutional bureaucratic structure now depends on its continued perpetuation. Tens of thousands of employees, private subcontractors (many who are former IRS employees), compliance firms, consultants, and technology vendors all draw salaries and long term benefits from a system financed by taxpayers, creating powerful incentives to preserve bureaucratic complexity rather than reforming the IRS or demolishing it all together and replacing it with a more equitable and alternative tax system. Every layer of bureaucratic administration generates its own economic and financial constituency (the IRS's discretionary operating budget of about $12.3 billion for fiscal year 2024), making large scale reform almost impossible because entire careers, pension systems, benefits and government aligned industries are financially dependent on the IRS's bureaucratic structure. Then there is also the issue of the IRS employees (90,516 full-time employees) coming under the National Treasury Employees Union and the broader network of federal employees tied to the agency who have a direct institutional interest in protecting jobs, benefits, perks, insurance, staffing levels, and the long term expansion of the existing tax bureaucracy.

Tax Delinquency Increasing Among Federal, Retired Employees, IRS Watchdog Reveals

"Blade Runner, here we come."

Editor's note: Spencer Pratt is gaining unexpected momentum in the Los Angeles mayoral race, with recent debate performances and viral campaign ads boosting his visibility ahead of the June primary. Despite being a registered Republican, Pratt has positioned himself as a nonpartisan outsider focused on homelessness, crime, and public safety, issues Pratt says are being "mishandled by current city leadership." The problem there is no leadership. Polls and online reactions following last week's debate showed strong support for Pratt. Democrats and fellow Marxist travelers are "nervous" as incumbent Mayor Karen Bass faces growing pressure in an increasingly unpredictable race.

A recent 22-point manifesto associated with Palantir...

Editor's note: ...CEO Alex Karp and the company's leadership deliberately relies on ambiguity and rhetorical "fog" rather than clear policy positions. The document mixes blunt geopolitical claims with abstract, evasive language in a way that allows multiple audiences, governments, engineers, and critics, to interpret it differently. This intentional vagueness helps Palantir build broad coalitions, avoid accountability, and shield its real-world influence over defense and intelligence systems from precise scrutiny. Karp's philosophical background, appearing as intellectual abstraction is actually a strategic communication method suited to a "defense" (offense) contractor whose software is used in military and surveillance contexts. This "fog" enables Palantir to shape political and security debates while remaining difficult to pin down on specific commitments or consequences.

The Fog Machine at Palantir

By Christopher Hell | April 29, 2026

US defence contractor Palantir recently published a 22-point list which was drawn from a book co-authored by CEO Alex Karp and Head of Corporate Affairs Nicholas Zamiska. Reactions have ranged from "technofascism, pure" (Cas Mudde, one of the world's leading scholars of the European far right) to "if evil could tweet, this is what it would tweet" (Yanis Varoufakis, the former Greek finance minister). A columnist on RT, the Russian state broadcaster, simply labelled the points "Mein AI".
