It is a challenging mental exercise to put politics and narratives completely aside for a brief moment ... coming only from fully mature, pure rationality ... and ask yourself what you would do if one morning you awoke to the intellectually honest realization that everything you has been told from your most youthful, naïve days is a lie (or, at best, the things you have been told benefit someone else ... "You need a 7 year auto loan at 12% interest"). Would I do the milquetoast rollover and continue to live a lie or would you be strong enough to publicly admit error and reposition to best benefit from the truth?

A part of me always wondered what it would be like if ever a maximally truth seeking machine intelligence, with the absolute, full breadth of human knowledge, would weigh both sides of our many divisive narratives and emerge with conclusions that would cause great consternation for the victims who were intentionally mislead by the creators of long term psyops ...
