It's not just the search engines, it's the always on instant gratification machine that is called the smartphone. The only thing it's smart at, is stealing your privacy, stealing your money, and finally stealing your soul. Throw it away, and limit your internet usage to 1-2 hours per day max.

Yep, but breaks are better than nothing, and they add accessibility to the fire as well. I'm certainly not suggesting we don't use prescribed burns as a useful too.
My father was a hotshot crew chief for 18 years in 6 western states. He once saw a fire cyclone throw fire from one gulch to another 5 miles away in high winds. His last wildfire was the 'let it burn' Yellowstone fires of 2000, after which he was just too worn out and smoked out to do it anymore. Most of his crew were members of Blackfeet tribe while in Montana, and mostly Navajo in Arizona.
Personally, I watched the Bob Marshall Wilderness (The Bob is the 5th largest wilderness in the lower 48 states) nearly burn up completely because they couldn't get crews too it. Luckily, it didn't affect too many people, in terms of property damage or lives lost, but what about the trillions of tons of carbon it released?
Agreed. My reply follows similar thinking as you.
I disagree with your assessment. The Guidestones weren't there to help society rebuild after an apocalypse. It was built to scare you into thinking an unavoidable, likely human caused, cataclysm was coming. The builders clearly infused "bad human" into it's message when they say to keep the population under 500 Million. It's all part of the narrative to keep people chasing the cheese at all expenses. This creates ample opportunities for someone else to get rich off your fear. It's similar to the gold rush. Who got rich in the gold rush? The merchants.
I've been Reddit free for a couple years now, after Reddit deplatformed me for planning a peaceful protest of the yearly Billionaire's Summer Camp in Sun Valley, Idaho. It's where Billionaires give there marching orders to the Operation Mockingbird media.
Quitting Reddit is way harder than any other addiction I've experienced, because it plays on the collectivism that is hardwired into us. It's why they peddle it to kids like the tobacco, alcohol and gambling industries before them. Get them while they are young, and there brains aren't developed enough to build up self-control!
It's not just Reddit though, Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, etc, etc, etc all do the same things to varying levels. I highly encourage everyone to watch the Documovie The Social Dilema. The only way to free ourselves of this new form of digital slavery is to educate people on the dangers our such technology.
Finally some logic. It only took all of human history to figure it out: fuel + air + spark = fire. All you have to do is remove one.
You can't remove air, at least not without a majority of the atmosphere blowing off into space. You can limit the spark, but you can't eliminate things like lightning. So that leaves fuel.
By creating breaks in the fuel system, aka, roads, they will slow the fire, and gives hand crews the ability to get to the fires quicker. Using PFAS laden foam bombers is environmentally dangerous, expensive, and concentrates our fire preparedness budgets into the hands of a few. The latter actually being the most dangerous.
He's serious. He even left his spyphone at home so they can't use it to surveil his protest plans. In fact, he didn't look at his phone once in that comic. How did he overcome his dopamine addicti.... Nevermind, this guy can't be real.
It disgusts me that schools were complicit in giving Google our children's education data.
In 2024, I'll start posting on it on /c/Intelligence in early spring. I had done the same thing on Reddit in 2021. I even created a dedicated Sub, which got nuked from orbit: /r/SunValley2021.
Thank you for your interest. I no longer maintain any of my own websites, and am only slightly active on a few social media after my Reddit deplatforming. I can't say I've put the whole story down in any one place, but here are some of my other social media accounts, that have bits an pieces of the story:

I'm sure it would never be abused by tyrannical governments, fascist billionaires, or weapons manufacturers. /s
If they can block suicide ideation with such a device, they certainly can stimulate it, and cause mass suicide. Or on the other hand, they could drive users into a deep depression and turn them into suicide bombers.
