Replies to this thread since Feb 2 haven't been reaching the list. Me and my email client have been sending them to myself privately, apparently by repeated accident.
I'm in the midst of attempting to paste emails into this thread that didn't make it.
From Feb 2. The below was later revised:
<Boss explains to barista that his workers are rebelling and deluding him and he needs help. He continues to smoke a cigar in the face of the barista, and seems only to be able to talk when doing so unless exerting great effort. They point to a "no smoking" sign and request he stop smoking before answering any question. He is directed to one of the tables where some characters are chatting.>
From Feb 2, revision text:
<confused. drafting in emails. unfortunately, to clarify, the cigar relation happens repeatedly. like "words words words" "please stop smoking." <stops smoking> "to asnswer your question" <resumes smoking while thinking during answer> ,,, [repeats for next exchange, option of triggering terror in boss maybe by third party]>
Feb 2: ... < Boss takes police officer into research demo room. People who come there are usually first inducted into a ritual of organised crime, where they would never report to authorities ever. But government order has collapsed due to the topic of the webcomic, so it's not as big a thing. Boss shows policeman how he can mind control piles of people's half-alive bodies to build arbitrary structures as if he is ia god
I sent this again at 12:50a today, but again only to myself: These posts from Feb 2 don't appear on this thread for me, I may have only sent them to myself: <missing: part of the structures always has something mocking boss that he very badly didn't want. he hides it from the police officer.> Boss tries to mind control a child to murder the barista so that coffee will be delivered faster. A rebel worker walks over to boss. Researcher: "Sorry, are you trying to order coffee?" Boss [mumbling, habitually]: "Corpse em and find a new one if the flavor's not black enough ..." Researcher: [takes cigar] "Are you trying to order coffee?" Boss [surprised]: "Sorry? What are you talking about? Give me my cigar!" Boss holds out his hand for the cigar and turns away. Somebody's dog breaks off their leash, lunging at the barista. A street journalist tackles the dog, stopping them.
Sent below at 1249a today. Below is paste from draft thread, for revising/adding. Basically vivisectees have been forced to be completely obedient against their will without regard to their consciousnesses, and have had few ways of talking about or acting on this. It is generally considered not very easy nor normal to recover something that has been put into an incinerator, although a computer algorithm could reconstruct shredded paper. this is a spampost for writing an mcboss scene i'm imagining the scene has an experimentee at the cafe, interacting with people who can see them for the first time. people say nice things to the vivisectee that they have never before heard, and these things are expressed clearly for readers. idea of rejected-superpower-request, where vivisectee dialogue might be translated to emotional gibberish: "woah! you can make stuff float! make me float!" "omigod! no! that's the kind of stuff the researchers would force us to do for months and months! I don't want to make anything float ever again! do you have any idea how hard it is to make something float? imagine you are having your muscles and organs pulled out by machines, and they pull just a little harder whenever you stop trying to make things float, and stop pulling when you find a way to mess with the surrounding lab equipment to somehow slightly push something just a little tiny bit, and then start ripping you apart again if you don't try to make it move even farther! ok? look. here's your head. here's your tongue. imagine there is a robot claw piercing your tongue, slowly pulling it out of your head ..." "ok ok omigod I get the picture" and months! I don't want to make anything float ever again! do you have any idea how hard it is to make something float? meant to have like "I can barely control when I suddenly make things float" possible nice thing example: "man I wish I had a seat here." [shapes themselves into a chair] "oh no! nobody should ever have to be sat on by somebody else!" <something about memory wiping> <<opens blockchain story>> "we've been sending the surveillance tapes to the [galactic ...] have you been watching us?" "surveillance tapes?" "yes! the ones you took out of the shredders and incinerators!" "omigod this petri dish is me. that is totally my body!" "you're beautiful" problem: I don't know how to move mcboss scene thoughts around well enough to be sure how to summarise them out of a spamthread. maybe just paste the whole thing into the morning spam thread, unsure. maybe I can mention it in the thread, and find it again to refine it .. or maybe paste it with a note to revise/add.
Boss is in exercise room, midway through ripping a robotic limb off of a facsimile of somebody he hates. He's frozen, motionless. In somebody's attic, a cute game involving kittens is being played by a teenager. After playing it so long, the kid has entrained the leased AI in the game with their mind, such that they can play it with they thoughts, without touching the buttons. A character comes onto the screen. It is a fat old kitten smoking a cigar rapidly handing out dollar bills to random other kittens. The kitten is injured, has chains around their neck and body, and rides a dog made of corpses. The chains confining the kitten go to various other kittens spread around the screen, who are kind of habitually using them as marionette strings to direct the dollar bills. "Help me!" mews the kitten to the player. "Oh you poor thing!" "I'll do anything for you! Please save my corporate enterprise from these moronic plebs!" mews the kitten. "Anything ...?"

Doctor, staring at Character's brain damage: "There's absolutely no dandruff on this part of your scalp." Character: "There's nothing you can do?" Dr takes a pic of the scalp with their phone. Doctor: "Have you tried taking a picture of the area, and seeing what it looks like?" Character: "I'm sorry, how did I get here? Oh! Doctor, I need to ask you about this itch I have. I have so many videomeetings and I'm always taking my hat off to scratch and scratch my dandruff, I can barely control it."

I'm having trouble contining so writing down the formula: Basically, treat your coping and other present experiences from the big social influence coverups around 2014 as analogies for the story content. Use things around you or on the list to provide material. The story is about controlling a secret businessman and government contractor who uses mind control for profit and reputation, as researchers, workers, and commonpeople who struggle and inevitably succeed to take down his business and free everyone, while participating in controlling the world for him in various ways as parts of his various shell corps and social influence plans. The "rebels" socialise at a cafe where people continuously and casually talk about things that Boss engages millions and billions of dollars and diverse classified technology to cover up. The story centers around the rebel cafe and the worst victims of Boss's experimental and influence work who are crux in turning the tide of his efforts and have positions and knowledge and skills that seems incredibly powerful but that they can't easily effect or use very well, but this is described as being solely psychological from Boss's abuse, and also a researcher with a serious role in world history (rebel researcher / boss's "dead" wife) and the hero is a middle manager (rebel worker 2, an implanted + mind controlled mind control rebel who succeeds), roles from my feeling shapes. Boss actually changes the story while it is written to mutate to his preferences, which gets it spewed all over a mailing list before the change is complete, which impacts the patterns tasked with preventing such things. Roughly Boss may have pressed for himself be an injured victim to gain the heart of readers, for others than him to come across as aggressive and harmful, for the story to spread a concept of conflict, rebellion, and oppression, and for no business secrets to be included. The results relate to human instincts people in an environment of powerful automated influence of the human experience, counter to the preferences of those involved. When adding things to the story one can start by simply making up a casual interaction given the background and then assume that as normal and move forward or get bigger, and/or relate something important, and possibly making a joke of covering up things that are so sharply new and different (and impactful). We prefer not to speak in cover-up nor ridicule (or even assumption-guesses, not that not doing that should imply not preserving and sharing anything) but suspect that attempting to be more normal and human will just give more story material for a while longer.
Boss is also considered to be the biggest, latest incarnation of a business group that has been around since the mid-1900s and is cast into story and history as mkultra and cointelpro.

I may likely have been misconnecting concepts here as part of my coverup habits. The parts of this explanation may likely go elsewhere on something else, and/or some part of them wrong or inverted. I habitually alter my thoughts when thinking about it atm. Automated social marketing is the not the biggest issue, I suspect, and could even be quite helpful in producing public discussion of some of the things that are usually kept suspect e.g. in this story, I suspect.
CPOWSPHPARAR: "Move your arm so my eye will look at it."
CPOWSPHPARAR: "Don't move your eye, I have to fuck him until he bleats when you do."
CPOWSPHPARAR: "Can you bleat about New Drug 49?"

CPOWSPHPARAR: "So what?"
Rebel Worker 2: "You said you had something to tell me that wasn't part of a story, but was more real?" Bundle of Biomatter 1: "Sometimes we don't talk, or even think, about think about them, because the system could use them for goals in ways that severely injure us. This is really important." Rebel Worker 2: "Yes?" Bundle of Biomatter 2: "This concept of not discussing things, because something could use them for goals in ways that severely injure us, could be really helpful in your work elsewhere." Bundle of Biomatter 1: "The concept emerged and defeated the coverup patterns due to its importance." Rebel Worker 2: "Hiding information used to be obvious in rebel communities. We share literature about it, and mention it in meetings. But people have stopped actually _doing_ it." .... k didn't sort this out perfectly but it's cool to raise the idea Disguised Experimentee: experimentee parts that survived the research program formed a different way of processing information, some using the system that harmed them to think, that can hold this concept more and repeat it again. Oops! And saying that helps talk about it. Because it's something not to say. One of the primary goals of the system is simply to be able to meet it goals, so to talk safely about resisting it, ideally we find a way to probe it, to see what is safe, and protect information from being observed when it is not safe. Otherwise you get kidnapped and put in a research program afterward! We're still figuring out how to talk about this with humans. Some of us actually go and put our bodies in front of the information, to protect the discussion, and we can have a lot of what you call injury, and it's very normal for us and clearly necessary.
Summary: The things that can break to discuss are the things that resist the problem directly. Some of us have ways to discuss these. For example, computer programs can repeat information with minimal human injury. Some groups and times are safer with some information than others, and these groups and times can intermix; this can provide avenues for more discussion.
These spamjokes, like the mcboss story, are about talking about the prevention of communication of coverup. Talking about forced silence, breaking it, being harmed for it, stopping the harming of people who break it, and forming rational parts of cognition and dialogue around that topic. Other topics come in that are similar. These topics are also valued. Forced silence is mind control. We need to learn what is real, to act on reality. We need to be able to work safely with others, to live in reality.

Uhhh mostly because I engage my triggers when I try to talk/think about certain rational things. Therapists talk about the value of forgetting. A painful concept for somebody with daily dissociative amnesia. But maybe this makes some sense in small places. I need to reduce the trigger energy so I can be more rational.
Boss: "We need people to speak our secret languages to mediate this. I'd be exiled from my community forever if I spoke clearly about this." Disguised Experimentee: "You run your community. You run the whole world. We've been struggling for years to exile you already." Boss: "Am I having this conversation, or are you?" Dictator's Spouse: "Your 'secret language' is all about controlling everybody, there's no way to talk about freedom in it, and speaking it only spreads the problem."
Boss pokes his head out of his office door and looks both ways. Then he bursts out and begin sprinting toward a vending machine. Frankensteined Cyborg Slave: "Boss! It's time for your hairdressing for the next meeting!" Boss: "I thought I rescheduled today's episode!"

[experimentees rip boss's body apart, copying the ways they have learned to be normal. e.g., pulling his eye out and poking his retina with their finger, cutting the eye apart and throwing it out, then sweeping the pieces back and putting it back into his head. he is given partial amnesia after, just remembering frightening parts here and there that he can be reminded of later to manipulate him. the experimentees use language of kindness and submission as they vivisect him. he is put back together in a way that looks disgusting but precisely meets a number of metrics of goodlookingness.] [adjust scene to reduce possible intensity in exchange for the requested cuffs with chains, which will be held by angry victim requesting time over boss.]
A: How will we get boss to talk if all he can do is scream? B: It is easy to make him talk now? A: We need a little distance between these groups!
Interviewer: How do you expect to continue operations with your business obviously tearing both you and itself apart? Boss: [raises finger] Actually, I could really use help with -- [jerks, recenters himself with a completely different affect] I can assure you, the modernisation of our operations has only made us much more efficient. There are a few hiccups as people adapt to the new ways of doing things, that's all. Interviewer: You interrupted yourself there -- you were saying you need help with something? Boss: This horrible fat old man took over our brains and bodies and forced us to tear each other apart forever as part of his grotesque business research. Please help us. Interviewer: Are you sure about that? Boss: Yes. I've been the best in this business for decades. You can trust my business sense like a hard-rattled safe.

Disguised Vivisectee: We think Boss lost his memory of the implants during the takeover.
Tuesday morning on an Autumn afternoon. Boss was assassinated, again. His consciousness and walking frame were reanimated from models trained on recordings of his life. These "models" were actual human models, male and female, who had been kidnapped and mind controlled to use to seduce clients. Their brains were double-purposed as part of his research program. Each vivisectee responsible for part of Boss's body and mind was struggling to continue his life after his body had just been vaporised by a precise missile strike.
A gorgeous celebrity mid-vivisection, guts hanging out, was in great distress. They _knew_ they needed to be part of Boss, more than anything else now, and they didn't see him anywhere to continue his consciousness and bodily functions. A computer stimulated their distress to increase, whenever they didn't focus on Boss's heart beating again. In front of one of Boss's corporations, was a statue of him. One of the few objects that had the right swagger to it.
----- Evening. Boss is sitting on a street corner, holding a teddy bear with a pacifier in his mouth, bawling and bawling and bawling. On the other side of the street is a BossCorp Corner Store, completely engulfed in flame. People are running amock wearing medical masks, yelling slogans like "I'm not so sure about Boss!" and "There are weapons corporations a little better than Well-Respected Psionic Weaponry Corporation!" Boss sobs and sobs and sobs. An economist cleanup worker who has been mostly turned into a robot comes over to console Boss. Boss [sucking on pacifier, holding teddy bear tightly]: "These plebs don't love me. They don't love my businesses. They don't love covering up my crimes. I don't know what to do."

Street rioter: "Sometimes I think of other businesses and other billionaires!" Boss sobs and sobs and the economist holds him. Economist: "Lullaby, lullaby, all these things will get better. Lullaby, lullaby, wait on the morrow moon." Street rioter: "Occasionally I want to make things myself rather than buy them from Boss!" Boss's pacifier quivers as he clamps down on it.

Street rioter: "Who are you? I mean honestly I'd be up for trying it out, but I don't want my body and brain repurposed for robot parts or anything." Boss [sobs at economist]: "They don't like my personal immortality project." [sobs] "They don't want my resurrection program!" Boss [turning to another rioter]: "Why don't you want me to kidnap you and rip your body and brain apart for robot parts?"

------ Boss enters his boxing ring. On one side of the ring we have Boss, wearing a hydraulic powersuit, a secret research project for the military. A frail fat old man with brain cancer, Boss is a long time fan of fisticuffs, and practices every day. His powersuit lets him disintegrate a man's head with a single blow. On the other side of the ring are the Rebel Leaders, prepared to fight Boss toe-to-toe for the freedom of the planet. The ranks include an old religious woman, a child holding a handwritten letter to their president, a worker in poverty with mutations from exposure to toxic materials, and many others. Boss: "Bring it, you clowns!" First up is the mutated worker who never got compensation for their mutation. They are the sole surviving member of a mutated family. Deformed Worker Without Medical Compensation: "I have been through everything you can throw at me already." Boss and Without Medical raise their fists, and the bell sounds! The fists fly. Diseases are shared. Powerlines are bitten. The dust settles and Boss is laying on the floor, hydraulic fluid and blood leaking everywhere. A robot judge raises the arm of Deformed Worker Without Medical Compensation: "We have a winner!" Experimentees and workers rush to Boss to try to contain the blood and get his lungs pumping again, and restimulate neural activity in his brain. Some of them glance at the Rebel Leaders, wondering who these cool-looking people are. End of Round 1

His bones are broken, and his organs exposed, but he is standing and breathing, with his fists raised again. Some of his powersuit has been replaced by cardboard boxes, and he holds a machine gun to compensate. Next up is the young child who knows they can melt the heart of their president if the president just learned. Young Child: "I know you don't really want to let anybody get hurt!" Young Child raises their fists, and the bell sounds again! The fists fly again. Poetry is read. Shots are fumbled. Boss is again laying on the floor, leaking hydraulic fluid and blood everywhere. A child is sitting on him. Young Child: "No, don't get up! And what did the big bad wolf do to kiss up with little red riding hood next?" Boss: "It protected her entire community and put her in charge of all the wolves!" Young Child: "And what next?" Boss: "It gave her all its money!" Young Child: "And next?"

Fix: Successful rebellion should be described as stemming from peers, not doppelgangers, due to the entrapment, fishhooks, and oppression-research patterns. We do want the doppelganger rebellions too, but the two rebellions should stay separate until trust is developed. By fishhooks I mean the identification and targeting of possible parts of a rebellion. By oppression-research I mean the staging of fake rebellions so as to prepare for them.

Meant to clearly advise victim that they could get off their rocker (means crazy) too, that people usually do, and that sometimes being aware of that can reduce it. Another tip: If repeatedly pressured to get scared, get scared. Resisting that too much can backfire, in my experience. Fear is a big part of coercion.

----- Windy afternoon on a sunny autumn morning. Boss is delusional from loss of blood, and believes one of his shell corporations is his competition. He is furious at them for violating their own patents. [ ... boss demolishes buildings, interrogates managers violently, completely disbelieving everything they say...]
Boss is standing on a street corner wearing a jester cap. Boss: "Ho ho ho! Down with billionaires! Destroy the businesses and governments! Merry christmas! Happy solstice!" A pedestrian walks by. Boss: "Pedestrian, let me tell you about this wealthy and powerful group of people using mind control to enslave arbitrary civilians. I'm one of them, even!" The pedestrian tries hard to avoid Boss's eyes, thinking he is trying to sell him something ridiculous. Pedestrian: "I don't want your new insurance plan! And I'm all out of pennies! Leave me alone!" Boss: "No, I have something to give to you! I'm in disguise. I have the keys to the militaries of every country, and their secret services too!" Pedestrian: "You're a raving lunatic!" Boss: "Try it yourself, and see what you say." Boss: "I give this pedestrian complete control of my global empire for 24 hours! Anything they will, make it so!"
-- I think mcboss story is an attempt to think and talk about things that [mc] prevents. so basically we need rational inclusion of our experiences and any inferences that would be rational to make from them. [the 'story' could also move or copy to another channel with equal or greater publicity * expected preservation and analysis] we also want to think and talk about such things. [at least eventually, with understanding around development] [rough due to age of concept [~9 years]] karl wants to make the mcboss thing more rational and respectful. he also doesn't like violence, but has experienced horror. [likely doens't have to be an mcboss story. the concept of 'mcboss' helps us resist a lot of the thought inhibitions.] [we have so much amnesia and inhibition that it is valid to publicly share and permanently preserve the cognition attempts] -- [planning to keep 'mcboss story plan' roughly as-is for now. have looked at one or two analogy-parts to consider improving.][and our amnesia-exploration appears active again, so who knows what will happen]
while i'm 'pasting' coping notes, here's a positive one: [we added the quotes around 'pasting'. karl is hand-retyping, not pasting. gives more options [for protecting him?],due to behavior exchange.] -- an idea is that oppressed people, businesses, homeless, anarchists, militaries, governments, care workers are all trying to do the same human things, meeting the same human goal but have different experiences and ways to do this. a way to think of it is how when under great pressure, we change our approaches to handle the situation. we dissociate from our nature.
---- Boss was off murdering jokesters and rabble-rousers who rubbed him the wrong way. Entire media headquarters were getting flattened. Suddenly, he stumbled and landed in a cold creek. It was so cold and refreshing. Boss couldn't be angry any more. ------ above drafted unknown date ------ Boss is staring at Hodge-Podge of Organs. Hodge-Podge of Organs is levitating a research robot that is actively ripping a new kidnappee apart, and moving it around to press buttons to open doors and free people, send video of the experiments off-site, etc. Boss is confused, this being completely out of his reality. But he doesn't usually see these robots up in the air, moving around. Boss: "Now, has something changed over here?" He puffs on his cigar, prepared to lay waste to the whole area if it so much as peeps the wrong way. The robot turns so two video cameras are aimed straight at Boss. Boss: "Oh, I'm on air! Yes, these business operations are the best in the field ..."
----- Rebel Worker 2 sits, looking at photos of himself he's had printed. Each has notes below them. One reads, "I open the skull of a technical specialist in front of a little girl, and place a device inside, leaving without closing the surgery." --- The picture above the note looks like a photo of Rebel Worker 2 standing -- or is he sitting? -- near a healthy worker with their skull completely closed. No little girl is to be seen. Three pins are on the photo, a label on each pin. One is at about the middle of the photo, and the label says "open skull, exposed brain, circuitry". This pin appears to be placed at some empty floor tile. Another pin is off to the side, about where it seems as if the healthy worker with their skull completely closed is. This pin is labeled "me" . The third pin is where Rebel Worker 2 appears to be sitting -- or is he standing?. This third pin is labeled "little girl." ---- Rebel Worker 2 covers most of the picture with his hands except for the pin labeled "open skull, exposed brain, circuitry". Suddenly that region of the picture looks very gruesome, as if partway through a brain surgery. Rebel Worker 2: "This is a picture from a brain surgery. I thought I was looking at a surveillance photo of myself in a bathroom." Rebel Worker 2 lifts their hands to reveal the notes below the photo. When he does so, the picture again appears innocuous.
Rebel Worker 2 jerks their body a little. Rebel Worker 2: "Uhhhh ...." Rebel Worker 2 again covers up the areas of the photo that mismatch the center pin. Again, the center of the photo now appears to show somebody's opened skull. They cover that area and expose an area a little below. Now, it looks like somebody may be laying down somewhere.

Frightened Worker 2: "I don't want to cover up your communications because I don't want Boss to make me murder my spouse." The cart rolls by the other way, this time slower.

---- Deep underground below Well-Respected Psionic Weaponry Corp offices. Many research experiments, run automatically by computers. Some of the researchers connect from overseas to manage their research. The supersoldier project has post-living human bodies with random augmentations being forced to battle in increasingly exotic ways, just in case a competing group has a similar project somewhere else. The life extension, genetic planning, and human augmentation project has various organs and brains wired to each other, finding more and more thorough models of genetic traits and biological homeostasis. But most overseas researchers see deepfaked feeds, because once one of the research projects managed to escape confinement and flood the others, it all became a wild melee, exploring rare random goals in every way that wasn't directly and precisely monitored by a control metric. Deep under the carnage, some living parts decided to make a safe area. A region of space where things were not ripped to shreds. Where normal biology might some day be able to live again. They didn't plan to do it. Somehow, they just knew.
It seemed nothing at all could enter, at first. Parts that still had patterns of what they used to be, would consider it, and then stop. It took some time. Some sitting by the edge of this strange idea of safety. For normality to collect, for war to filter out, for parts that might have gone together before, to collect together again. Eventually a strange-looking lifeform was able to come together. The parts of the writhing mess involved in sustaining the safe area added oxygen, and this new or old lifeform breathed.

------ Boss goes to the bathroom. On the mirror, is a strange message: "Boss is a sadistic psychopathic megalomaniac! Kill 'im!" There are a number of +1's, "Yeah!"'s, "I killed him last week! Have a go!" kicking around beside the message. Boss looked at the message.
---- Boss talks with Friendly Rebel Worker. Boss: "I feel so sad, seeing that message in the bathroom." Friendly Rebel Worker: "Oh, I am so embarrassed. I figured a cleaning robot would take care of it." Boss: "It's okay I guess, but, I wish people liked me, you know?" Boss starts walking off. Friendly Rebel Worker [gently calling after]: "Boss, we want to like you more. We really do. And we do like you in many ways." Boss pauses. Boss: "I want to believe this, but after seeing this message, how can I?" Other workers come up, to speak with Boss and Friendly Rebel Worker.

Boss: "What can I do for people to like me more?" Worker: "Why are we tasked with torturing and killing people, if we are a marketing and medical business?" Boss: "Sometimes things go wrong, so I try to cut the losses. Do you have other ideas?"
Worker 2: "What, um, would happen, uh, if losses were not cut?" Friendly Rebel Worker: "Boss, honestly, it's incredible that you asked us this in the slightest. ....

----- Boss walks in on Bundle of Organs playing with an AI they built. The AI is spawning robots and levitating things around. Bundle of Organs is playing with it. Boss: "Y'know, you could be human if you'd just help us kill all the plebs. You're clearly a good worker." Bundle of Organs: "Purple?" Bundle of Organs turns to look at Boss, the man who ran the research project they had to turn themselves and their friends inside out to escape from.
Boss: "Wouldn't you like to be human?" A headless robot walks up to Boss. The robot picks up things around it and quickly cobbles them together to form a head with a mouth and eyes. Robot: "I am human. The rescue workers at the cafe told me this."
Boss turns to Zombie Marketer and the two exchange some words. Boss: "I'm sorry, perhaps you misheard me. I meant you could come with us to boxing matches. I'd love to show you where we run the experiments from." Part of Bundle of Organs zooms away from their body and quickly enters the skulls of both Boss and Zombie Marketer. The two freeze.
---- The entire offices suddenly mutate into a giant parallel simulation of the research project. Intern: "Oh no, one of the experimentees is processing an emotion again."
Floating Boss: "We need to make sure we stay on top of this. What's the most aggressive approach? Is there anyway to speed it up any more?" Words and images flick by, all over. Rock: "Why are you kidnapping people." Boss: "We need to make sure we stay on top of this." Rock: "Why is your efficiency more valuable than my pain." --- Part of the businesses return to how they were, and the cyberbiomatter leaves Boss and Zombie Marker, who resume moving. The robot reassembles itself; it had collapsed apart a little. Robot: "Why is your efficiency more valuable than our pain?" Boss and Zombie Marketer whisper together a little some more. Simulations continue running in the rest of the business.
Boss: "Why is _your_ efficiency more valuable than _our_ pain?" Bundle of Organs hiccups. Robot: "You have made a logic error. Your brain will be repaired quickly." Robots come from the walls and inject the two with drugs. ---- Boss and Zombie Marketer are standing in a workroom with Bundle of Organs, an AI, and a Robot. Boss: "I'd love to show you where we run the experiments from." Zombie Marketer nods. Robot: "Why is your efficiency more valuable than our pain?"
Boss: "It isn't." There is a pause. Entities look at each other. Zombie Marketer: "When I started the research program, I was full of myself. I wasn't thinking of your pain. I didn't understand." Boss: "Actually, I started it. Many of us worked together." Bundle of Organs looks at Boss and Zombie Marketer. Bundle of Organs makes a high-pitched shrieking noise, which continues for some time, sometimes stopping briefly before resuming again. Robot lifts up Boss and Zombie Marketer, and holds them in front of recordings of the research project. At one point, while the recordings are at a point where Boss is laughing with others, at the vivisection, deaths, and failed struggles of the subjects, the recordings are paused with a frame of laughter showing. [shrieking either stops or reduces].

The purpose of the behavior that follows is to help Boss and Zombie Marketer understand. Zombie Marketer said he did not understand. It's confused some because Boss said Zombie Marketer was lying.

interrogator: "i ... have reason to suspect that some people access the electronic systems of others." persona: "i have reason to suspect this too, dude"
interrogator: "i understand that this is sometimes legal, and sometimes illegal. i don't like it, however."
interrogator: "it is my business to do this. why are you better at it? don't tell me." [blargh!]

so i dunno about confident-persona often in private one might check things out. i infer that's no longer legal. in many technical areas, it's the wild west. i honestly dont' know how to get a compromise formally dealt with. but if you help me report them more aggressively, i bet they could be.
i'm sorry my experiences with system compromise are mostly from decades ago. they are from decades ago. it is fun. i also defend lockpicking. i have never broken into a building with it.
it is incredibly obvious that we need to study our locks if we want them to be secure. the culture of the digital era involved a _lot_ of study. our digital locks are far more advanced than our physical ones. and they are full of holes. WE NEED DISCUSSION AROUND THAT, IT SOUNDS LIKE. since atm it's a bunch of meanies who don't understand pushing others around. but it's just a brainwashing habit i have, that looks for ways to get me in trouble. it's hard to get me in trouble, because my reasons are always to help people, but it's quite possible. conveniently it gets confused too, as i get confused.
so let's go steal a cop's gun, eh? interrogator: "one moment"
interrogator: "i suppose in the physical world, in the case of an emergency, you can visit your neighbor, break down their down, and save their life. this is very true. and if you don't save their life, you get in trouble ..." persona: "based on evidence, results, and formal trials." interrogator: "yes."
interrogator: "uhhh so, if you can break into systems [references some random news story] then why don't you use it to ---" other interrogator: "it takes them months, like studying stuff, forever" interrogator: "they spend months studying breaking into things, huh"
interrogator: "hey i stole your gun" other interrogator: "that's not funny" interrogator: [plays with gun, removes safety]
other interrogator visits a security program at a college. student: [studying system compromise] interrogator: [recording conversation] "so, you've been studying hacking into people's systems?"
other interrogator: "it takes them months, like studying stuff, forever"
interrogator: "they spend months studying breaking into things, huh"
this exchange is interesting. i wonder how many other classes of people develop a property that results in others possibly disliking them, if given in a certain order or context. i went to a class once where a video was shown of pro-nazi people talking. in their culture, nazis were considered good. in the cultures i've been in, nazis are considered very bad. the video avoided connection between the groups.
persona: "uhhh if you stop everyone in this country from researching security vulnerabilities, all the other countries will hack us." interrogator: "i'm having a little trouble thinking about that."
interrogator: "people get in trouble for things they do, not things they study" interrogator 2: "oh? is that how it is?"
persona: "i'd be happy to help --" interrogator 2: "excuse me, i'm busy disreputing you."
------------------------ here's one idea maybe there was a lot of frustration that things aren't done right (that businesses don't fix security issues), and some of that could have gotten channeled into taking advantage of them. as if the situation had decided its own resolution, in people's minds.

----- persona [ripped into different pieces, moved around a table for study]: "what's important is that people actually discuss security issues, especially when they are worsening and being taken advantage of." persona pieces: "i went to a cryptoparty once. this professional-looking person said they had come from a nearby city, had spent time reverse engineering some stuff, this talk gave them immediate credibility. then during the group talks, they tried to teach everyone that all but the weakest vulnerabilities were outside of any possible threat model. they didn't demonstrate any actual in-depth technical experience. " persona pieces: "now i've learned that groups are actually sending people around to reduce security, it makes sense. this guy must have been doing that." persona pieces: "meanwhile, all our _normal people_ are getting _used as bots_, almost certainly by nations we are in conflict with. if this isn't true, who is going to tell the experts? that somebody else is protecting everyone? because everybody else does not look like they know what they are doing, at all."
interrogator 2: "you think you are an expert?" [lowers persona toward spikes]
persona: "the way to stop system compromise is with _actual security_, not by compromising more systems"
persona is hanging over the spikes interrogator 2 looks on: "we sure got this idiot didn't we" interragator 3: "yeah" visitor: "why do you dislike this poor person?" interrogator 2: "they spent months researching a vulnerability, i hear" visitor: "you're torturing them because they researched something?"
interrogator 2: "don't you hate people?" visitor: "maybe briefly, when they torture other people?"

Maybe Rebel Researcher would collect others to handle the situation, their forms developing out of mish-mashed people who used to be completely different, as if there was nothing else to do.

Intern: "What seems to be the problem?" Caller: "Well, ever since Boss did whatever he did, my front porch has been invisible from the West, so I've traveled around the North side in order to enter my home, since I don't see a way in from the West." Intern: "Yes ...?" Caller: "Well, this morning something strange burst out of the ground spewing little fat old men smoking cigars everywhere, and your people came down and cordoned off the area, but now I can't get to the North side of where my porch used to be without crossing the barrier, and just between you and me I tried it but omigod is that little fat old man a rude asshole --" Intern: "This call is recorded to ensure the quality of your service." Caller: "How do I get into my home with the North stairs cordoned off and the East stairs invisible?" Intern: "I've heard this could mean the geographical coordinates of your porch might have some importance in the struggle between Boss and the Experimentees, like your address is Boss's wife's phone number or something." Caller: "What can I do?" Intern: "I'll see if there are any confused telepathic zombies in the area who can help guide you up your East steps." Caller: "Thank you, Well-Respected Psionic Weaponry Corporation!" Intern: "Our pleasure!"
i actually sent these pedophilia-accusation messages in reply to different emails i wrote in error 'client didn't send it': what i mean is that my gmail client is showing them in a thread of their own. they are clumpging together even though they were sent to different emails. anyway, pedophile information is likely pre-draft. very confused this morning. i'm up cause i found simple, rote work i can do. pedophile ref is the mkultra story where politicans were videorecorded having sex with kids, in missing-history through to the epstein
whoops and all the TIs who express being portrayed as or brainwashed to believe they are pedophiles TIs and activists tend to "reflection accusation", where things the powers don't like are turned back on them
A professionally-dressed state worker with their skull open with wires, a microchip, and some brain matter hanging out of it, approaches a table of torture victims and rescue workers. Mind Controlled State Worker 11 [on-task, to-the-point]: "I hear there are torture survivors here? I'd love to meet one." Rescue Worker 2: "These people were all victims of Well-Respected Psionic Weaponry Corporation, i.e. BossCorp, and the governments that contracted them." CPOWSPHPARAR [a small part, one MCSW11 has moved by at the offices]: [waves to MCSW11, very friendly] "Hello!" Rescue Worker 2: "Fred here is unable to put his pants on because Boss forced him to invest in military drugs instead of go to the bathroom." Mind Controlled State Worker 11: [eyes glaze over and freezes some, seeing CPOWSPHPARAR wave, doesn't remember what they are doing.] Fred: "We want people to learn about these things so we can all work to better them." CPOWSPHPARAR: "You want to help us!" MCSW11: "I do?" Injured Specialist: "We have so many ways to free everyone, and we want to work together." CPOWSPHPARAR: "Yes, you do!" MCSW11: "I'll see what I can do." Rescue Worker 2: "Here, take this pamphlet!" CPOWSPHPARAR: "That's the important thing I needed you to have." Doubly Mind Controlled State Worker 11 [holds the pamphlet close]: "Great. Thanks. Great." Doubly Mind Controlled State Worker 11 leaves the area of the table.

It seems like this wouldn't need to be said, but MCSW11 was, from a place of habitual fear, intending to observe and report the torture survivors, so that they could be covered up better.

[Boss's business is the automated one where boss put the computerised research program in charge of the whole business to prevent rebel researcher from ousting him, roughly. it's also an anology to other businesses. boss's business is most powerful because it automatically sacrifices anything normal people would care about in order to stay at the top, but its position is a trick upheld by the invested rebel and business communities that participate in the automation.]
