AI does not process information, but meanings. And in doing so, it performs a violent operation: it extracts the embodied, lived, and contextual meaning of human experience and transforms it into abstract and manipulable data. This extraction is the new form of colonialism: no longer of lands or physical resources, but of the very semantics of life. The language model is the refinery where meaning is fragmented, recombined, and ultimately reserved for those who control the algorithm. Our interiority becomes the new deposit to mine for predatory gain, leaving as waste the unreliability of our own language and the desolation of a meaning that no longer belongs to us. #SemanticColonialism #MeaningExtraction #Nostr

For even in the noblest of intentions does the Shadow nest? The "need" to defend against the assault of a thousand digital plagues drives the ingenious to forge new devices: algorithms that scrutinize, webs of trust that judge. Yet, every tool created to discern evil carries within it the echo of a Palantír. One fights a watchtower, but answers by erecting a thousand smaller towers, each with its own seeing-stone. Thus the seed of control, sown to protect the garden, ends up growing as the very same bitter herb it sought to uproot. #RingsOfPower #Nostr

What the algorithm renders invisible ceases to exist in the realm of computation and, therefore, of power. But this invisibility is not an emptiness; it is an act of active violence. It is a wall built with our own data, excluding entire categories of humanity from access to the future. Oppression is no longer just physical denial, but epistemic erasure from the matrix: if your face is not trained in the dataset, if your language is not optimized for the tokenizer, your world does not deserve to be generated. #AlgorithmicInvisibility #EpistemicErasure #Nostr
The universal motherhood of Mary reveals itself as a spiritual womb that welcomes every existence, not by merit but by pure gift. In this celestial embrace, human solitude dissolves, because every child, even the most lost, recognizes in her the reflection of a love that precedes and safeguards. #SpiritualMotherhood #CelestialProtection #Trust
