Well, its an information war.
The Monolith controls nearly all information channels and sources of influence. "Facts dont care about your feelings" has been getting a lot of traction recently, but "feelings dont care about facts" either. And we have an entire apparatus designed explicitly to exploit emotions.
Their goals now are to continue keeping the "normies" inline by DoublePlusGood-ing the Narrative, and provoking anyone who dissents from the Monolith.
Id say the latter is the primary objective, by far, but they both work towards the same end. Its a bit impressive how bold some of it is though. At the very least, I would think they have a very high degree of confidence in their control of information, rather than desperation. I would also assume they have confidence in the force they are able to apply should portions of the population respond to the provocation "traditonally."
As long as people continue to cheer on the seeds of manipulation, or get increasingly mindlessly angry.. "Losing" to the Monolith is little more than a formality.
The goal is absolute control of all resources (people and information are resources too). This is mostly accomplished through technology that is inevitable and already in existence. Meaning, as long as most either accept or reject their paradigm without actually designing & deploying alternatives that arent corporate-political or susceptible to exploitation, it all works in the Monolith's favor.

Totally agree. Select people was the intent.
Which didn't include Women, right?

This is my shocked face
The sad part is, it takes two to tango.
They shoved their propaganda down our throats.
And just enough gullible people had to believe it.
We are screwed as a society when that many people — are just that stupid.

When these sh*tbags do blatantly illegal and horrible things they have to purposely leave some evidence behind.
Illegal? How so?

Even States Trump won changed the laws (due to Covid) but nobody seems to be challenging them!
