Interview with Lady Hamilton, December 8, 2025

Thanks to Lady Hamilton for the invitation to return Headmaster’s Homeroom. I come in at 17:20, but the preceding material is relevant to the themes discussed. They included:* “Covid-19,” Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy;* the digital state and the agentic state;* digital technologies as weapons; * most of the population being addicted to and/or dependent on their “smart” phone;* the impact of digital technologies on children;* AI, loneliness, and psychosis;* the fact that AI lies and makes thing up;* outsourcing of critical thinking to AI;* the problematic embrace of AI in the classroom; * a global system of direct digital control as the technocratic end goal (despite the illusion of decentralisation);* why social credit scoring and an all-digital financial system must be opposed; * the carrot and stick approach to getting everyone onto an all-digital system; * from soft to hard addiction when it comes to “smart” phones; * digital ID in the UK (partly rolled back on today, Jan 14, 2026); * the global public-private partnership and governments’ contempt for public opinion;* the development of technology for social control purposes;* resistance rising globally; * freedom of speech but not reach;* the importance of taking personal responsibility to resist;* Grok’s “AI assistant,” Ani, and why a “child-friendly” version of Grok is to be treated with suspicion; and* dumbing down in education.
