A first step into 'Headless' news... Is it possible to get news without talking heads?
Headless news = information acquired without the help of talking heads.
This usually requires reading. I do read. (And should read more.) Do you?
Today I asked Andrei about Project Apario and to unpack what it represents as a table-flip on the idea of mainstream media.
It was a good discussion, and now I am summarizing in my own words, not with examples he gave.
Imagine one has changed the channel from Fox to the X22 Report or from CNN to Tim Pool.
Those alternative channels, often with more viewers and attention than the previous mainstream, could be seen from the one who switched as a better option to become informed. But how are they different from the mainstream?
Are they not simply taking open source intelligence (OSINT), filtering it, and packaging what they want to share with you? (Often not even citing the OSINT records at all.)
It’s not that commentary doesn’t have its place. It can be quite entertaining and even useful as a supplement to one’s own study. But as a casual viewer or listener, without referencing and actually looking at the OSINT that is referenced, there is the ever-present danger of simply taking on ideas and later parroting them because they are close at hand (in one’s mind/memory).
Therefore, simply changing the channel is not a table-flip on THE IDEA of the mainstream media.
And the belief, that is the wish, that one could simply watch, consume, imbibe “the news” and not continue to be un-informed or mis-informed is simply that… a wishing of case or circumstance to be true.
There is a possible future where voters are truly informed.
Not just about who they pick for President every four years. But about the most local issues. (All of this, by the way, is addressed by Project Apario, since this technology can be put to use by municipalities to keep everyone informed about the goings-on, as just one of many use-cases.)
Flipping the table
So, what would a genuine table-flip look like?
On today’s early stroll a neighbor came by, and at one point in the conversation that followed said her friend watches the local news before bed. We both recognized this as fraught with danger.
“Give yourself a chance!” she said, referring to lost sleep from the emotional heaviness of a newscast. Now, I too am learning this lesson slowly. The previous night, I had logged into X at 7pm and indeed, it led to a later bedtime. Isn’t it the case that X is just another form of mainstream media—a bunch of opinions—in many if not almost all cases? (I grant that others may be much better than me at getting to source material on the platform)
Many readers know the game of the news, not always a 24/7 cycle, became a round-the -clock phenomenon and once going digital has thrived (vampirically) on emotions and clicks and narratives. The “masterminds” within intel agencies and partner organizations almost succeeded in their decades-long goal to make what every American believes to be true, actually false. With digital engines subverting our neurotransmitters through communication devices upon which we depend, they almost had it made.
Give yourself a chance!
And yet, they did not succeed and will not.
We know we have all kinds of choices every moment. About what to do, how to act, who to help.
With the foundations of where we are and what we showing cracks, it is at times unnerving to look away from the habits of how we become informed, to find purchase and footing on solid rock.
Instead of choosing not only how to think but WHAT to think ABOUT, how easy it is to listen to a talking head and then parrot their opinion? (Sometimes these are very well argued, very well supported, persuasive, even convincing.)
We are all ‘idiots’ about something (from the Ancient Greek, not specialists, average Joe’s and Jane’s). So therefore it is natural to listen to someone “we trust” and then the only trouble is in sorting out who to trust for information.
Is there not another way?
Could it possibly be right in front of us?
I wager there is, and it is.
A time for reading
With Project Apario, Andrei has built something that will change the world—the technology is already open-source—and although almost every influencer has ignored him, I have not and do not.
Aperio in Latin = to open, unveil, uncover.
If you’re someone who likes to see what the technology can do (as an end-user), try https://idoread.com (CIA Remote Viewing records, also known as Project Stargate). Want to take a look at the projects? Github: Apario Reader and Apario Writer.
If you’re someone who just wants to learn more in general, I recommend starting to read now and to get ready for the October Surprise tomorrow.
It’s not only about reading the Raven Squad Army publications (the first issue has 7 editorials), but reading will help to get acquainted and invite you into the background of Andrei, how he was able to build Project Apario in the first place, where it is now, and what’s in store—You very well may be an important part of it.
Remember, it’s not flipping the table on the mainstream media; instead, it’s a biblical table-flip on THE IDEA of the mainstream media.
Perhaps October’s Publisher’s Letter is the best place to start.
Although there are greater challenges awaiting some of you who decide to take this first step, I will leave it there… until tomorrow, when the October Surprise is unveiled.
