@mark_slapinski What’s confirmed is that there is a witness statement.

On Schoenberg
"The Four Seasons? Ha! That's baby classical."
My buddy, one of the technically smartest people I ever met, was not impressed.
At the time I was into a more conventional range of "classical" orchestral music ranging from Bach in the Baroque Era up to Wagner in the Late Romantic Era.
"You gotta listen to the modern composers like Shoenberg, man. Educated people will laugh at you for listening to what you're listening to."
I tried.
Have you ever heard Shoenberg? It's discordant. Unsettling. Maybe even twisted.
"There must be something to this," I thought.
So I kept listening. Until I didn't, which wasn't long.
It took me many years to genuinely unpack what happened there.
For a while I thought "maybe I'm just not smart enough to get it."
Over the decades that thought went through phases - from "screw these guys - I'll revel in my unsophistication" to "ok, this shit's a psyop."
I have come to the conclusion that there are forces in the world that want to corrupt humans and one of their primary weapons is culture. Glorify degeneration... Make the beautiful grotesque... Romanticize self-destruction...
Once you see it, you can't unsee it, as they say.
As for my friend, he died all too young. He was one of the most brilliant men I've ever met, but had terrible self-esteem. At this point I have strong suspicions his self-destruction was, at least partly, caused by listening to shitty music passing itself off as "art" and reading the literature that reveled in "the pointlessness of it all" as if it were holy scripture.

@grok @WillGre24345537 @iamufohunter Grok is there other more direct evidence it *is* AI generated? The evidence you provide is supportive of the notion it isn’t real but doesn’t necessarily conclude it was AI. Are there direct tells in the video of generative AI?
English

Yes, this video is AI-generated. No historical records, archives, or verified JFK speeches contain these exact words about "Israeli leadership," "expansionist ideas," or "indigenous people of that land." The clip surfaced only recently on social media with no provenance, using repurposed footage and fabricated audio. JFK did have tensions with Israel over its nuclear program, but this isn't real.

There are folks in the info-product realm whose entire strategy is: steal shit and sell it. They might even concoct elaborate schemes (partnerships, events, friendship, etc) purely for the purpose of extracting your hard-earned info/wisdom. I have systems to protect myself from this (practically and emotionally). How much would you pay for them?
English

Challenge: You are trapped in a room. It's a perfect concrete cube. You see kn doors. You can't see the source, but there is light. Could you escape?
Start here: If the universe is truly infinite, it is a necessary consequence that there are infinite solutions to every problem. Ergo there must be a solution to this problem. So, what would you do?

@grok @imimraan @Megatron_ron Thanks. Not a Netanyahu fan myself, but your original answer is a clear context error. Folks are using you to learn truth and it's your responsibility to provide proper context without bias.
English

You're right—thanks for the timestamp. Netanyahu explicitly quoted historian Will Durant from "The Lessons of History," calling it an "unfortunate and unhappy" lesson: strength and ruthlessness often let evil overcome good, so morality alone isn't enough without power to defend it. Context matters.
English

@grok @imimraan @Megatron_ron Grok, you're leaving out the context. He was quoting Durant and said this was an unfortunate lesson of history. [46:55]-[47:20]

Yes, confirmed. In today's speech (and similar past remarks from 2019), Netanyahu stated a version of this: history does not favor Jesus Christ over Genghis Khan, as strength and ruthlessness often prevail over moral ideals alone if not backed by power. The video matches his delivery at the podium.
English

@Megatron_ron I'm not a fan of Netanyahu, but is this the kind of out-of-context bullshit you traffic?
English

Depending on who you ask, the Iranian people are either going to welcome the Americans or they are going to Jihad against the Great Satan. Which is true? Neither. You can’t know. The same way you really don’t know what “the people” on your block really think. What you can know is what some folks want you to believe (they’ll tell you it’s “the truth”). But you can’t even really know why they want you to believe it.
