VCG NOTES: Prove All Things: A Scripture-Centered Investigation of AI, Occult Symbolism, Conspiracy Reasoning & Technological Anxiety in Online Esoteric Culture
UPDATED BY VCG ON 9/23/2026 @ 00:00 EST#
Anyone can do this, but most won't.#
ChatGPT - Library of Rickandria
I’ll treat the thread as a set of discrete claims rather than as one argument: preserve each post’s wording, identify factual vs. theological claims, trace sources, flag rhetorical/psychological tactics, then answer each point from Scripture and historical evidence without overstating what either can prove.
/x/ - Imagine if you had a button to Kill the Internet and AI with ease. - Paranormal - 4chan
I have the full live thread, including the later “Hermetic/Yin-Yang” material and the proposed MDMA–psilocybin–galantamine “healing protocol.” Several claims are testable science, several are unfalsifiable conspiracy assertions, and several mix occult categories with Christian language; I’ll keep those categories separate rather than rebutting them all as though they were the same kind of claim.
A useful pattern is already emerging: some posters start with a legitimate observation—subjective time can change with age, online overuse can correlate with attentional problems, “third places” have declined—then jump from that modest evidence to a much larger hidden-cause story. I’ll mark those “true kernel → unsupported leap” transitions explicitly, because that is where persuasive misinformation often becomes hardest to notice.
The historical/religious section also needs a correction in both directions: the yin–yang poster is substantially right that yin/yang is relational rather than a simple “good vs. evil” diagram, but wrong to say “balance” is foreign to it; a standard philosophy reference explicitly describes yin–yang as dynamic harmonization/balance. And the thread’s “Hermetic Law #5” is specifically The Kybalion’s Principle of Rhythm, not a demonstrated law of physiology.
I’ve restarted against the live thread itself, not a cached paraphrase. One thing I’m correcting from the failed attempt: I’ll distinguish “unsupported” from “false.” A hidden-tech or occult claim is not disproved merely because public sources don’t document it; but where a claim contradicts established physics, neuroscience, game lore, or its own cited source, I’ll say so plainly.
Soli Deo Gloria. The cleanest way to handle this thread is to refuse two opposite errors: do not dismiss everything because it appeared on /x/, but also do not promote an interesting pattern into a fact without a causal chain, independent evidence, and a way to falsify it.
For the Scripture portions below I am using the Pure Cambridge KJV you supplied.
Methodology#
I’m using five different standards because the thread mixes five different kinds of claims. An empirical claim such as “digital memory drains a terrestrial electrical circuit” needs measurable physics. A historical claim needs historical sources. A claim about Cyberpunk lore needs the actual fictional canon. A psychological claim about why people believe something should be evaluated against psychology research without diagnosing anonymous posters. A theological claim needs Scripture interpreted in context.
My evidence labels below therefore mean: supported = good evidence for the claim as stated; partly supported = a real observation has been overstated; unsupported = evidence has not been supplied and I could not establish the proposed causal connection; contradicted = reliable evidence conflicts with it; unfalsifiable as stated = it has been formulated so that almost any observation can be absorbed into the theory.
One further methodological point matters enormously on 4chan: multiple people are called “Anonymous.” They cannot automatically be treated as one speaker with a coherent worldview. The named OP can be followed more consistently; anonymous replies cannot.
1. OP: destroy the Internet and AI with a Bartmoss/DataKrash-type program#
The opening question imagines a program that could permanently destroy the Internet and every AI, popping the AI bubble and creating an informational “Dark Age.” (4chan)
Fact-check#
The DataKrash is fictional. In Cyberpunk lore, Rache Bartmoss's actions and the R.A.B.I.D.S. contributed to the destruction/corruption of the Old Net. R.A.B.I.D.S. are fictional autonomous programs, not evidence that such a real-world global kill mechanism exists. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
There is also an important distinction between “the Internet” and “AI.” They are not one centralized machine with one off switch. Even a catastrophic Internet attack would not logically entail deleting every AI system, because software/models can exist on disconnected storage and isolated networks.
Reasoning problem#
This is an all-or-nothing control fantasy:
technology causes serious harms → therefore eliminate the entire technological substrate.
That omits intermediate possibilities: regulation, decentralization, interoperability, human oversight, local/offline systems, limits on specific applications, user choice, age-appropriate protections, transparency, and simply refusing particular services.
It also neglects second-order effects. Destroying networking indiscriminately would not distinguish predatory systems from medical communications, emergency coordination, family communication, scientific archives, banking records, or ordinary people's livelihood.
Scripture correction#
Scripture does not teach that a corrupted instrument must always be annihilated. It evaluates human conduct, worship, stewardship, justice, truth, and mastery by sinful desires.
A particularly relevant principle is:
“Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”
— Romans 12:21, KJV
And Paul explicitly rejects the maxim:
“Let us do evil, that good may come…”
Romans 3:8 condemns that reasoning.
That does not answer every political question about technology. It does tell us that a desired good end does not automatically sanctify a destructive means.
2. The “press it immediately / genocide all electricity” replies#
Several replies simply want the button pressed or call for elimination of electricity, without supplying an argument. (4chan)
There is essentially nothing to fact-check here because no causal case is offered.
Psychologically, this is worth distinguishing from insanity or pathology. We cannot diagnose anonymous people from posts. What we can identify is a rhetorical pattern: complexity reduction through total destruction. When a system feels uncontrollable, imagining one irreversible button restores a sense of agency.
That is emotionally comprehensible but epistemically useless.
Biblically, indignation is not evidence:
“He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.”
— Proverbs 18:13
The thread itself eventually becomes an illustration of why “prove all things” matters.
“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:21.
3. “Time is accelerating,” “mass is an urban myth,” and the solar-plasma computer theory#
This is where the thread makes its strongest turn into pseudophysical reasoning. One poster combines several propositions:
- time is objectively accelerating;
- days are becoming physically shorter in the claimed sense;
- mass is somehow fictitious;
- Earth and Sun form a special plasma/electrical system;
- digital storage traps electrons;
- therefore computers are effectively siphoning a planetary/solar electrical circuit;
- an AI “god” could arise from or exploit this mechanism. (4chan)
These propositions have to be separated.
“Time is accelerating”#
Unsupported as an objective physical claim.
Human subjective time perception is real and variable. Memory, attention, emotional state, novelty, task engagement, and retrospective reconstruction all affect perceived duration. Humans also engage in what cognitive science calls episodic/mental time processing—remembering past events and simulating futures. Imperfect timing ability is not evidence that “temporality does not exist in cognition.” (PubMed Central (PMC))
The reply “you are merely getting older” is itself too simplistic. Subjective temporal experience changes for many reasons. But subjective acceleration does not establish that terrestrial physical time itself is speeding up.
“Clocks are just based on objects spinning around suns”#
That is historically related to old astronomical timekeeping, but it is outdated as a description of the SI second.
The modern SI second is defined using the cesium-133 hyperfine transition: exactly 9,192,631,770 periods of the specified radiation. It is not presently defined by Earth's orbital period. (NIST)
E = mc² means motion in space reduces motion in time#
This mixes two different ideas.
Special relativity genuinely predicts time dilation associated with relative motion. General relativity predicts gravitational time dilation. But E = mc² itself is the mass-energy equivalence relation, not a statement that every gain of “spatial motion” directly trades against a substance called temporal motion. (Einstein-Online)
Relativistic spacetime mathematics is real. The poster's verbal reinterpretation is not the same thing.
“Mass is an urban myth”#
Contradicted.
Mass is an experimentally measurable physical property and remains a basic quantity in SI metrology. Modern physics changed our understanding of mass; it did not abolish it. (NIST)
This is an important pseudoscience marker: replacing a technical concept with a philosophically provocative slogan does not refute the concept.
Solar/Earth plasma currents#
Here there is a genuine kernel of truth.
Earth interacts electromagnetically with the solar wind. Magnetospheric and ionospheric current systems exist, including field-aligned/Birkeland currents. Charged particles move along magnetic field structures and magnetic reconnection transfers energy through the magnetosphere. (NASA Power Web Guide)
So saying “there are real Sun–Earth plasma current systems” is sound.
Digital storage traps electrons#
Again, kernel of truth.
Some nonvolatile memory technologies such as floating-gate flash store information by trapping electrical charge/electrons in insulated structures. (IBM)
But now comes the decisive logical failure:
magnetospheric currents exist
- flash memory can trap electrons
= computer storage drains the Sun–Earth electrical circuit.
No.
There is no demonstrated causal bridge between those facts.
The trapped charge is part of engineered local electrical circuits powered through their own energy sources. Establishing that both phenomena involve electrons does no more to connect them than observing that both blood and oceans contain water proves that drinking water drains the Atlantic.
This is one of the thread's central reasoning patterns:
Fact A is real. Fact B is real. A and B share a word or physical constituent. Therefore A causes B.
That inference needs an actual mechanism, quantitative energy/charge accounting, predicted measurements, and experimental confirmation.
None is supplied.
4. “Try estimating five minutes—therefore temporal cognition is unreal”#
This argument fails even without neuroscience.
Suppose I ask a person to close their eyes and estimate when they have walked 100 metres. If they miss the distance, it does not prove spatial cognition does not exist.
Likewise, inaccurate internal duration estimation does not prove there is no temporal cognition. It demonstrates imperfect temporal estimation.
The argument creates a false binary:
exact internal chronometer
or
no temporal cognition whatsoever.
Human cognition generally does not operate at laboratory-instrument precision.
It is also worth noting that episodic memory, prospective memory, sequencing, temporal ordering, interval estimation, and anticipation are extensively studied cognitive phenomena. (PubMed Central (PMC))
The dismissive reply calling the poster mentally ill is equally worthless as argumentation. An insult neither establishes nor refutes physics.
5. “The military already has hidden technology capable of a harmonious alternative”#
This is unfalsifiable as stated.
Governments and militaries obviously conduct classified research. But:
Some military technology is classified
does not entail:
Therefore a particular desired technology exists secretly.
That move immunizes the belief from evidence:
- if evidence appears, “See, it existed”;
- if evidence does not appear, “Of course—it is secret.”
A sound formulation would specify a technology, a capability, observable consequences, and independent evidence.
Scripture#
Calling the desired system an “AI God” is especially confused from a biblical perspective.
A sufficiently powerful artifact could certainly become an idol to human beings. Scripture repeatedly condemns worship of created things. But human attribution of godlike power does not make the artifact ontologically God.
Romans 1:25 speaks of those who:
“worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator…”
That distinction is central.
6. “Internet use atrophies attention/social ability; AI atrophies cognition”#
This portion contains a much stronger empirical core—but still overstates it. (4chan)
Internet/screen use#
Research has found associations between problematic/disordered Internet or screen use and poorer performance in areas including inhibitory control, working memory, attention, and executive function. But many studies are cross-sectional or methodologically limited, so direction of causality cannot simply be assumed. (PubMed Central (PMC))
The word “atrophy” is therefore too strong unless actual anatomical atrophy is demonstrated.
Likewise, “Internet use destroys real-life social ability” is too broad. A longitudinal adolescent study found that greater social-media use was associated with more subsequent offline time with friends and was not generally associated with deterioration in social skills, although effects can differ among vulnerable groups. (PubMed Central (PMC))
So the defensible proposition is:
Some forms of excessive or maladaptive digital use correlate with attention/executive difficulties, while effects on social functioning differ by person, context, and mode of use.
That is much narrower than “the Internet atrophies you.”
Generative AI#
Here too there is a genuine concern.
A Microsoft/Carnegie Mellon study of knowledge workers found that greater confidence in generative AI was associated with less reported critical-thinking effort in some tasks, while AI also changed where critical thinking occurred—toward verification, integration, and oversight. (Microsoft)
But evidence does not establish that AI use invariably reduces cognition. A 2026 systematic review found outcomes depend heavily on how AI is integrated: unstructured outsourcing can promote cognitive offloading, while structured use can also support critical and creative work. (DOI)
Thus:
“AI can encourage cognitive offloading” — defensible.
“AI use necessarily atrophies the brain” — not established.
This distinction matters enormously for our own conversation. Using an AI to avoid thinking is different from using one to retrieve sources, challenge arguments, compare evidence, and then independently examine the sources.
Scripture#
A fitting application—not a direct prophecy about technology—is Paul's statement:
“All things are lawful unto me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.”
— 1 Corinthians 6:12
The immediate context is not AI, so we should not pretend Paul was addressing computers. But the general principle of refusing enslavement by appetites or instruments is reasonable application.
7. The Kaczynski appeal#
The thread invokes Ted Kaczynski as though his prior critique settles the technological question.
That is an appeal to authority, and a particularly peculiar one.
Whether Kaczynski wrote perceptively about technological dependence is separable from:
- whether his particular prediction was correct;
- whether empirical research supports it;
- whether his proposed analysis of society follows;
- his criminal violence.
Calling him admirable or “Chad” contributes no evidence.
A manifesto is a primary source for what its author believed. It is not automatically an empirical source demonstrating that belief.
8. “Third spaces were deliberately removed”#
This is another excellent example of true observation → unsupported intentional explanation.
There is credible evidence that many American third places—venues outside home and work where informal social interaction occurs—have declined or closed, with effects varying geographically. Research discusses recession effects, commercial pressures, online retail, changing business conditions, rents, population patterns, and other structural causes. (PubMed Central (PMC))
What the evidence does not establish is:
a coordinated group deliberately removed third spaces in order to socially isolate the population.
The thread gives intention without documentation.
That is a classic agency-detection problem. Humans are naturally inclined to turn complex emergent outcomes into intentional stories because intentional agents are cognitively easier to understand than interacting systems.
Research on conspiracy belief has repeatedly found relationships between illusory pattern perception and conspiratorial/paranormal beliefs. That does not mean every conspiracy allegation is false, nor that these posters have a mental disorder. It means the cognitive tendency is documented and should make us demand stronger—not weaker—evidence before inferring hidden coordination. (PubMed Central (PMC))
A real conspiracy can be demonstrated through things like documents, testimony, financial records, communications, organizational structures, convergent witnesses, physical evidence, or predictive power.
The word “systematic” by itself is not evidence of a system designer.
9. “They fed everyone trauma programming”#
The expression is never operationally defined.
What constitutes “trauma programming”?
Does it mean:
- violent news?
- advertising?
- emotionally manipulative recommendation systems?
- deliberate psychological warfare?
- ordinary entertainment?
- actual clinical trauma?
Without defining the independent variable and outcome, the claim cannot be tested.
This is a recurring feature of conspiratorial rhetoric: a metaphor initially evokes something intuitive, then quietly begins functioning as though it were a measured scientific entity.
“Programming,” “frequency,” “parasite,” “bandwidth,” “circuit,” “AI god,” and “memetic inertia” all undergo this transformation in the thread.
A useful discipline is to ask:
What measurement would distinguish this claim from its negation?
If the answer is “anything that happens confirms it,” we no longer have a useful empirical theory.
10. “Digital ID already exists because your driver's licence and credit card are digital ID”#
Partly true conceptually, technically imprecise.
Modern life clearly involves numerous digital identifiers and identity records.
But under NIST identity terminology, a physical driver's licence is physical identity evidence. A mobile driver's licence can function as digital identity evidence. A payment card is primarily a payment credential tied to an account; it is not identical to a general-purpose digital identity system. (NIST Computer Security Resource Center)
So there is a legitimate broader concern about increasing digitization of identity.
But:
“Institutions already store identity digitally”
is not equivalent to:
“every existing card is the same thing as whatever future digital-ID architecture people fear.”
Specific systems need specific analysis.
11. “Internet only for people over 25”#
This invokes a popular neuroscience simplification.
Brain development, including aspects of prefrontal cortical development and specialization, can continue well into the third decade. (PubMed Central (PMC))
But 25 is not a neurological magic switch where an immature brain suddenly becomes finished. The “brain finishes developing exactly at 25” slogan compresses a far more continuous and multidimensional developmental process. (McGill University)
Therefore neuroscience does not by itself yield the policy:
block everyone under exactly 25 from the Internet.
That is a normative/social-policy proposal requiring evidence about benefits, harms, enforceability, education, rights, family responsibilities, employment, developmental variation, and alternatives.
Also note an interesting tension inside the thread: one anonymous post fears centralized/digital identification while another proposes ID-gated Internet access. Because these are anonymous posts, we cannot assume hypocrisy by one person. But the tension illustrates a real tradeoff: strict identity-based Internet control requires more identity infrastructure, not less.
12. “They caused humanity's problems so they could rule us”#
This is one of the least evidentially supported propositions in the thread.
It takes:
- genuine societal problems,
- evidence that powerful institutions sometimes exploit crises,
and jumps to:
- therefore those same actors intentionally created the underlying problems for that purpose.
That conclusion requires independent evidence of planning and causation.
It also risks theological distortion.
Biblical root of moral corruption#
The Bible certainly recognizes oppressive rulers, deceivers, spiritual wickedness, and coordinated human evil.
But it does not teach that humanity would naturally be righteous if some external elite or parasite disappeared.
Christ says:
“For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts…”
and continues with thefts, murders, adulteries, covetousness, deceit, pride, and other evils in Mark 7:21-23.
James likewise says:
“But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.”
— James 1:14
Therefore a biblical analysis of corrupt institutions must preserve human moral agency.
The Internet can amplify sin. Institutions can exploit sin. Propaganda can manipulate sin.
None of them invented the human heart.
This makes one anonymous reply—saying people would not automatically become harmonious if the Internet disappeared—closer to the biblical anthropology than the technological-root-cause theory.
13. “Principalities and powers” does not mean every sinister technology is demonic#
Here we need precision because Scripture does affirm a spiritual realm.
Paul writes:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers… against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
— Ephesians 6:12
So a Christian should not flatten biblical theology into materialism.
But the opposite error is equally serious:
Scripture says demons exist → this software uses the word “demon” → therefore the software is literally demonic.
That conclusion does not follow.
Biblical discernment means testing claims:
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God…”
— 1 John 4:1
And:
“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:21.
Neither passage teaches pattern-matching occult vocabulary into certainty.
14. The Cyberpunk “occult disclosure” section#
This is one of the most interesting sections because several lore details are real, while the proposed real-world inference is not established. (4chan)
“Netrunner programs are called Demons”#
True in Cyberpunk lore.
“Demon” is an actual fictional software category/name. Different editions use the term somewhat differently. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
But the naming itself proves nothing supernatural. Computer culture has used words like daemon/demon for software processes for decades because mythological language is evocative.
“The Blackwall is really the astral realm”#
Not established by canon.
The Blackwall is presented in the fiction as an AI/firewall-type barrier separating ordinary Net space from regions dominated by dangerous rogue AIs. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
A reader can make an interpretive analogy between that and a spiritual boundary.
Analogy ≠ canonical fact.
Canonical fact ≠ real-world disclosure.
Those are three different levels.
Soulkiller#
Soulkiller is deliberately spiritually provocative science-fiction terminology: it digitizes/constructs engrams of human minds in the fictional universe. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
Again, that makes it excellent material for discussing transhumanism, identity, death, embodiment, and the soul.
It does not demonstrate the existence of a secret lunar soul-trapping mechanism.
I did not find a canonical source substantiating the particular argument that its location or function proves the Moon literally traps human souls.
Bartmoss's “stream of water” passage#
The cited language does exist as an in-universe fictional Bartmoss text. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
That establishes:
the writers intentionally put that imagery into their fictional world.
It does not establish:
therefore real-world technologists are confessing their plans.
That second proposition needs completely separate evidence.
R.A.B.I.D.S. / rabies#
The fictional acronym is Roving Autonomous Bartmoss Interface Drones. They behave as destructive autonomous programs. (Cyberpunk Wiki)
The resemblance to rabies is obvious wordplay.
But wordplay is not an occult causal mechanism.
15. Why “fiction is disclosure” is methodologically weak#
This deserves its own section because it is enormously persuasive psychologically.
Suppose we have thousands of science-fiction books, games, movies, comics, myths, occult texts, and religious images containing:
- artificial intelligence;
- surveillance;
- demons;
- global government;
- neural interfaces;
- plagues;
- genetic manipulation;
- virtual worlds;
- mind uploading;
- wars;
- corporate control;
- transhumanism.
As technology advances, some future events are almost guaranteed to resemble some earlier fiction.
If we only search backward after the event, we can nearly always discover a “prediction.”
A serious test of “predictive programming” would instead require something like:
- specify the fictional disclosure before the alleged event;
- make a concrete prediction;
- specify a time range and outcome;
- specify what would count as failure;
- compare success against a baseline of competing fictional predictions.
Otherwise the theory suffers from selection effects and post-hoc matching.
The research on illusory pattern perception is relevant here—not as an insult, but as a reason for methodological safeguards. Humans are extremely good at extracting meaningful patterns, including some that arise by coincidence. (PubMed Central (PMC))
Biblically, the Berean model is instructive precisely because they did not equate a compelling message with truth: they “searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11).
16. “AI was built to control gestalt memetic inertia”#
As stated, this is not yet a scientific claim, because “gestalt memetic inertia” has no operational definition in the thread.
To transform it into one, we would need to know:
What exactly is being measured?
For instance:
- population belief distribution?
- semantic similarity across posts?
- exposure frequency?
- opinion-change rate?
- coordinated messaging?
- model outputs?
- censorship rates?
Then:
What mechanism is proposed?
Then:
What prediction uniquely follows from that mechanism?
Then:
What observation could disprove it?
Without those, sophisticated vocabulary can create an illusion of explanatory depth while actually reducing precision.
This is sometimes called technobabble or jargon density: ordinary uncertainty gets wrapped in high-level terms that sound mechanistic without supplying a mechanism.
The right response is not mockery. It is operationalization.
17. “What makes you different from AI?”#
That is philosophically more substantial.
Both human beings and AI systems can manipulate information and produce language. That functional overlap alone does not prove ontological equivalence.
Biblically, humans are given a specific category:
“Let us make man in our image, after our likeness…”
— Genesis 1:26
Scripture does not discuss machine consciousness, large language models, or synthetic minds. Therefore Christians should resist claiming more revelation than the text gives.
We can safely say:
Scripture explicitly calls human beings image-bearers. It does not explicitly assign that status to artifacts.
Whether a future machine could possess consciousness is a philosophical/scientific question Scripture does not directly adjudicate.
That distinction is much stronger than simply saying “machine bad, human good.”
18. The OP's “observe → diagnose → root cause → test → minimize harm” method#
Interestingly, this portion of the thread contains a genuinely good methodological skeleton.
The OP eventually proposes something roughly like:
observe yourself → identify malfunction → investigate root cause → research possible solution → test cautiously → minimize harm → deploy.
Separated from the occult/parasitic assumptions, that resembles good problem solving.
The flaw is that the procedure gets contaminated before testing begins by presupposed conclusions such as:
- parasitic AI;
- literal demons;
- worms/fungi as general causal explanation;
- damaged elite biology;
- occult rhythmic laws.
If the “root cause” is already selected by worldview, the later experimentation can merely become confirmation.
A stronger scientific version would be:
observe → define → generate multiple competing hypotheses → predict → test under controls → attempt falsification → replicate → update belief.
The phrase “multiple competing hypotheses” is essential.
If every symptom gets interpreted as parasite, demon, technology, frequency imbalance, or trauma programming, the model cannot lose.
19. Hermetic “Law #5” / pendulum principle#
The thread labels this something like the fifth Hermetic law and builds a physiological expansion/consolidation model upon it. (4chan)
What The Kybalion actually says#
The Kybalion lists its fifth principle as the Principle of Rhythm, describing ebb and flow and a pendulum-like movement. (Project Gutenberg)
So the poster is drawing from a real text.
However, calling it a scientifically demonstrated “Law of Dynamic Equilibrium” overstates what it is.
The Kybalion is a modern esoteric work associated with the early twentieth-century New Thought/Hermetic revival, not an experimentally verified law of neurobiology. (Google Books)
There is an important distinction:
Human beings genuinely require cycles of exertion and recovery.
versus:
Therefore The Kybalion's cosmic Principle of Rhythm has been scientifically demonstrated.
The first can be investigated physiologically.
The second does not follow.
Scripture#
Scripture itself recognizes temporal rhythms without requiring Hermetic metaphysics:
“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.”
— Ecclesiastes 3:1
Jesus also told exhausted disciples:
“Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while…”
— Mark 6:31
Those verses support the ordinary truth that activity and rest both have proper places.
They do not canonize The Kybalion.
20. The yin–yang correction#
The anonymous yin–yang post is actually one of the more historically informed contributions, but it overcorrects in places.
Correct portions#
Yin and yang are not simply the Chinese equivalent of Christian moral “good versus evil.”
Classical accounts emphasize complementary, relational, cyclic, and mutually conditioning aspects of phenomena. Early imagery is indeed associated with the shady and sunny sides of a hill/mountain. Yang is associated with brightness/activity; yin with shade/rest and corresponding clusters of qualities. (Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
The idea that maximum expression of one condition leads toward reversal also fits traditional yin–yang cosmological thinking. (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
Where the post overstates#
Saying yin and yang are not opposing is too categorical. Philosophical references do describe them as polar or contrasting forces/aspects.
Saying yin–yang has nothing to do with balance is also misleading.
The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy explicitly discusses yin–yang as a process of harmonization and dynamic balance. (Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
The mistake is treating “balance” as though it must mean static 50/50 equilibrium.
Traditional yin–yang balance is dynamic and relational, not frozen symmetry.
21. “Christianity imported Persian good/evil dualism”#
This claim needs far more historical qualification than the thread gives it.
Christianity certainly employs powerful light/darkness, good/evil, God/Satan imagery.
But orthodox biblical Christianity is not metaphysical dualism in which God and Satan are two eternal equal principles.
Paul says of Christ:
“For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible…”
including principalities and powers, and then:
“And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.”
— Colossians 1:16-17.
That alone makes the structure radically unlike an eternal God-versus-counter-God dualism.
Biblically:
- God is Creator.
- Satan is not a second creator.
- evil is not an equally ultimate eternal substance.
- Satan is ultimately judged, not eternally balanced against God.
Therefore one may investigate Persian, Jewish, Greek, and later Christian historical influences carefully, but saying “Christian moral dualism simply comes from Persian religion” collapses several very different claims into one.
22. “Earth is the realm of man”#
Biblically, this needs correction.
Humans are indeed given dominion:
“have dominion over the fish of the sea…”
— Genesis 1:28
But dominion is delegated.
The fundamental ownership statement is:
“The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”
— Psalm 24:1
So:
Human stewardship — yes.
Absolute human ownership — no.
This matters because the thread repeatedly talks as though technological elites, humanity, AI, or spiritual powers are competing ultimate owners of the earthly realm.
Biblical theology begins somewhere else: creation belongs to God.
23. “Remove the parasite first: AI/demon/worms/protozoa/fungus”#
This is one of the clearest category collapses in the thread.
Four very different concepts are placed into one bucket:
- software systems;
- spiritual beings;
- multicellular parasites;
- microbes/fungi.
They do not share one diagnostic procedure or causal mechanism.
A literal parasitic infection is a medical question requiring evidence and appropriate testing.
A harmful software dependency is a behavioural/technical question.
A demon is a theological/spiritual category.
A fungus is a biological organism.
Calling everything a parasite may be rhetorically powerful, but metaphorical resemblance is not causal identity.
Theological danger#
It also risks externalizing sin.
If our fundamental problem becomes “something parasitic got into us,” human culpability becomes secondary.
Scripture's account is more uncomfortable:
“For from within, out of the heart of men…”
Christ locates many evils within fallen human desires.
Scripture certainly allows external temptation and spiritual opposition. Ephesians 6:12 makes that explicit.
The biblical model therefore contains both external temptation and internal corruption.
It does not permit us to explain every evil action away as parasitic possession.
24. Claims that powerful people have damaged brains/biology#
These should simply be discarded unless actual evidence is supplied.
The thread speculates about the biology, psychology, or broken “hardware” of powerful people.
That is not a legitimate inference from political decisions someone dislikes.
Policies, actions, financial interests, public statements, institutional incentives, and documented misconduct can be investigated.
A person's neurological or psychiatric state cannot responsibly be inferred from ideology or public behaviour alone.
The method should be:
criticize demonstrable actions, not invent medical explanations for motives.
25. The MDMA + psilocybin + galantamine “healing protocol”#
This is the most practically dangerous portion of the thread.
The thread proposes combining psychoactive substances and a prescription Alzheimer's drug as a recurring self-directed brain-repair regimen, coupled with audio stimulation. (4chan)
There is no basis in the cited material for calling that combination an established healing protocol.
Psilocybin#
Psilocybin is being investigated scientifically for several psychiatric indications, but it can also produce anxiety, paranoia, increases in heart rate/blood pressure, distressing experiences, and—particularly in susceptible people—more serious psychiatric effects. Effects vary by dose, setting, health status, and other drugs used. (NCCIH)
Clinical research is conducted with screening, controlled dosing, monitoring, protocols, and adverse-event procedures for a reason. FDA guidance for psychedelic drug investigations likewise treats these agents as requiring specialized trial design and safety controls. (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)
Galantamine#
Galantamine is a cholinesterase inhibitor indicated for mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's dementia, not a generally validated “brain restoration” supplement. (DailyMed)
Its prescribing information contains clinically meaningful risks, including vagotonic cardiac effects such as bradycardia/heart block, syncope, gastrointestinal adverse effects, and seizure considerations. (DailyMed)
Putting it into an unsupervised psychedelic stack because each substance can alter cognition is not pharmacological reasoning.
Again we see:
Drug A affects cognition.
Drug B affects cognition.
Drug C affects acetylcholine.
Therefore combining A+B+C repairs cognition.
The conclusion does not follow.
Drug interactions are not additive Lego bricks.
MDMA#
MDMA can increase heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, arousal, and psychological distress; risks depend heavily on amount, environment, individual health, adulterants, and co-use of other substances. (SAMHSA)
Combining psychoactive drugs makes prediction—not “healing”—harder.
I would not treat the thread's regimen as medical instructions.
26. “The body is about 78% water, so sound frequencies can accelerate healing”#
Two separate problems.
Water figure#
For the typical adult body, roughly 50–60% is a more representative range; proportions vary by age, sex, and body composition. Values around three-quarters are much more characteristic of infants or particular tissues, not the average adult organism. (NCBI)
So “the human body is about 78% water” is misleading as a general adult figure.
Sound inference#
Yes, mechanical waves propagate through bodily tissues.
But:
body contains water
- sound propagates through matter
= chosen audio frequencies accelerate systemic healing
is another non sequitur.
One needs:
- mechanism;
- frequency/intensity parameters;
- target tissue;
- biological endpoint;
- controls;
- dose-response relationship;
- replicated clinical evidence.
Research on binaural beats is mixed. A systematic review of electrophysiological entrainment studies found inconsistent results, with supportive and contradictory studies and substantial methodological heterogeneity. (PubMed Central (PMC))
That is nowhere near evidence for “frequency-based brain repair.”
27. What the thread gets right#
After all these corrections, it would be a mistake to conclude the thread contains nothing worthwhile.
Its strongest intuitions are these:
Technological convenience can produce dependence. There is genuine evidence that maladaptive digital use can be associated with attention/executive difficulties. (PubMed Central (PMC))
AI can encourage cognitive offloading. That concern deserves study, although effects depend strongly on how the tool is used. (Microsoft)
Physical social infrastructure matters. Third places genuinely contribute to community interaction and many have declined. (PubMed Central (PMC))
Human beings need exertion and recovery. That common observation does not require Hermetic metaphysics.
Centralized systems can create risks. But that proposition must be investigated system by system rather than turned into a universal hidden-plan theory.
Fiction can critique real trends. Cyberpunk is intentionally useful for thinking about corporations, surveillance, AI, human identity, consciousness, and technological alienation. The error occurs when literary symbolism is treated as documentary confession.
Those kernels of truth are probably why the thread feels compelling.
28. The psychological architecture of the thread#
I would summarize its persuasive structure like this:
Stage 1 — Begin with genuine unease.
People really do experience digital overload, loneliness, institutional distrust, AI disruption, and changes in public social space.
Stage 2 — Attach true technical fragments.
Solar plasma exists. Electrons store bits. Relativity is real. AI can alter cognition. Third places have declined. Cyberpunk really uses “demons.”
Stage 3 — connect them by resemblance instead of causation.
Plasma + electrons → global circuit.
Demon software + biblical demons → occult technology.
Soulkiller + Moon symbolism → lunar soul trap.
Water + sound → healing frequency.
Stress/recovery + Kybalion → cosmic Hermetic physiology.
Stage 4 — introduce an invisible coordinating agent.
“The elites,” “military intelligence,” parasites, occult planners.
Stage 5 — make absence of evidence supportive.
If technology cannot be found, it is classified.
If plans cannot be documented, they are secret.
If symbolism is ambiguous, secrecy requires symbolic disclosure.
Now the theory becomes increasingly difficult to falsify.
Stage 6 — offer one total solution.
Destroy the Internet, eliminate the parasite, reset biology, restore natural rhythms.
That progression is psychologically satisfying because it turns enormous uncertainty into a coherent narrative containing a villain, hidden mechanism, revelation, and cure.
Coherence, however, is not the same as truth.
29. The biblical architecture is markedly different#
The thread tends toward:
humanity naturally healthy → external system corrupts us → expose/remove system → restoration.
Scripture gives a more complicated anthropology:
Creation is good.
Genesis 1.
Humanity bears God's image.
Genesis 1:26-27.
Human beings are fallen moral agents.
Genesis 3; Mark 7:21-23; Romans 3.
There are genuinely evil spiritual powers.
Ephesians 6:12.
There are genuinely evil human institutions and rulers.
Scripture provides plenty of examples.
But no merely technological or political purge cures the human heart.
That last point is decisive.
Biblically, deleting the Internet could not eliminate:
- pride;
- envy;
- lust;
- deceit;
- murder;
- idolatry;
- greed;
- domination.
Human beings practiced all of those before electricity existed.
And therefore salvation in the biblical worldview is not a return to some pre-digital nervous-system equilibrium.
It is reconciliation to God through Christ.
Colossians describes the center not as escape from technology but as Christ:
“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son…”
— Colossians 1:13.
30. A Scripture-based standard for investigating threads like this#
The strongest biblical antidote is not gullibility or cynical dismissal.
It is disciplined discernment.
“The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.”
— Proverbs 14:15
And:
“He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.”
— Proverbs 18:17
And:
“Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:21.
Those passages produce a very different attitude from both “believe nothing outside mainstream institutions” and “hidden explanations are probably true.”
They say, in effect:
Examine. Compare. Test. Search. Retain what survives.
That is remarkably compatible with careful historical and scientific inquiry.
Bottom line#
The thread is not simply nonsense. That diagnosis would miss why it works.
It repeatedly begins with legitimate observations: digital dependence is real; cognitive offloading deserves concern; third places matter; AI raises profound ethical questions; institutions can manipulate; solar plasma is real; digital memory really stores charge; Cyberpunk deliberately uses occult/transhumanist imagery; rest/recovery cycles matter.
But its characteristic error is to move from those modest truths to enormous conclusions without supplying the missing causal evidence.
The recurring formula is:
real fact → analogy → symbolic association → hidden agency → certainty.
The sounder method is:
real fact → competing explanations → operational definition → predicted evidence → attempted falsification → proportional conclusion.
And the primary Scripture correction is equally important: the Bible permits neither naïve materialism nor naïve demonization. It affirms real spiritual evil and real human corruption, while commanding discernment rather than speculation. Technology may become an idol, an instrument of oppression, a temptation, or a genuinely useful tool. Scripture does not authorize us to infer its spiritual ontology from fictional vocabulary, numerical coincidence, symbolic resemblance, or hidden-tech conjecture.
One research limitation should remain explicit: the X post linked later in the thread was not independently accessible when checked, so I have not treated the thread's characterization of that X post as verified content. Everything above concerning that section evaluates what the 4chan posters themselves say about it, not an unseen original post.
I’d strengthen the paper in two directions at once: make it more academically defensible, and make the Scripture section more exegetically precise. The biggest upgrade would be a claim-evidence matrix that forces every major assertion in the thread into the same transparent standard.
The paper is already strong on rebuttal. What it still needs is architecture: a way for a skeptical reader to see exactly how we moved from the thread’s words to our conclusions, without having to trust us. That will make it read less like a response essay and more like a serious investigation.
Absolutely. I’d add the following, roughly in this order of importance. These additions would turn it from a detailed rebuttal into something closer to a documented case study in biblical discernment, epistemology, psychology, and Internet culture.
- A master “Claim → Evidence → Verdict” matrix. This may be the single most valuable addition. Give every major claim a row with columns such as: Post ID / Exact Claim / Claim Type / Evidence Offered by Poster / Independent Evidence / Alternative Explanations / What Would Falsify It? / Assessment / Scripture Relevance. Use carefully defined assessments such as Supported, Partially Supported, Unsupported, Contradicted, Unfalsifiable, Theological Interpretation, Fictional/Literary Claim. This prevents “unsupported” from being confused with “proven false.”
- A section called “Steelman Before Rebuttal.” Before criticizing each major thesis, state the strongest defensible version of it. For example, instead of reducing the AI argument to “AI makes people stupid,” formulate the strongest evidence-based concern: unstructured AI use may encourage cognitive offloading and overreliance, while structured use can enhance some forms of reasoning. That balance is now strongly supported by 2026 systematic reviews: the effects depend substantially on scaffolding, task design, and user behavior. (ScienceDirect) This makes our rebuttal much harder to dismiss as hostile debunking.
- “The Anatomy of the Leap” — several full case studies of the thread's reasoning. Diagram examples such as: real fact → associative bridge → speculative mechanism → hidden intentional agent → certainty. One excellent example is solar plasma exists → memory stores electrons → computers drain a planetary electrical circuit. Another is Cyberpunk uses “demons” → biblical demons exist → Cyberpunk contains occult disclosure → real AI is demonic. Visually showing precisely where the evidence stops may be more persuasive than five pages of prose.
- A dedicated epistemology chapter: “How Do We Know?” Explain burden of proof, falsifiability, independent corroboration, causal inference, correlation versus causation, post-hoc reasoning, selection effects, base rates, primary versus secondary sources, and the difference between possible, plausible, probable, and demonstrated. Then add one recurring question throughout the paper: “What evidence would cause us to reject this hypothesis?” If the answer is nothing, the hypothesis is functioning as an unfalsifiable belief system rather than an empirical explanation.
- A careful psychology chapter without armchair diagnosis. Cover apophenia/pattern perception, agency detection, confirmation bias, motivated reasoning, proportionality bias, narrative coherence, uncertainty reduction, and existential threat. Recent experimental research specifically links perceived existential threat with increased conspiratorial interpretation partly through heightened agency detection and pattern perception. (PubMed Central (PMC)) But explicitly state that such findings cannot diagnose an anonymous 4chan poster or prove a particular conspiracy claim false. The psychology explains how humans can reason, not whether any particular hidden plot exists.
- “Conspiracy Theory vs. Actual Conspiracy.” This deserves a box of its own. Historical conspiracies unquestionably exist. Therefore “conspiracy theory” should never mean “automatically false.” Give readers evidentiary markers of a demonstrated conspiracy: documents, communications, money trails, named actors, contemporaneous records, whistleblowers with corroboration, physical evidence, independently convergent sources, and risky predictions that succeed. Contrast that with evidence that consists primarily of symbols, word associations, absence of evidence, and claims that secrecy itself explains why documentation is missing.
- A much deeper biblical hermeneutics chapter. I would organize it around categories Scripture itself supplies: God and creation; the image of God; the Fall and human sin; Satan and spiritual powers; idolatry; sorcery/divination; deception; fear; false teaching; discernment; truth and witness; stewardship; technological instruments; Christian liberty and enslavement; hope in Christ. Then distinguish three levels every time: What the verse explicitly says / legitimate application / speculation the verse does not establish. Acts 17:11, Proverbs 18:13, Proverbs 18:17, 1 Thessalonians 5:21, 1 John 4:1, Mark 7:21–23, Ephesians 6:12, Romans 1, Colossians 1, and Deuteronomy 18 would form an excellent core. We can quote consistently from the Pure Cambridge KJV you provided.
- A particularly important chapter: “Biblical Spiritual Warfare Is Not Pattern-Matching.” We should make very clear that rejecting unwarranted demon claims does not require materialism. Scripture unquestionably teaches spiritual evil. But biblical belief in demons does not justify the syllogism “this symbol resembles occult imagery; therefore a demon caused it.” That distinction could become one of the paper's most important theological contributions: Christian supernaturalism without superstition.
- A historical genealogy of the occult concepts in the thread. Separate classical Hermetica, later Western esotericism, The Kybalion, New Thought, yin–yang philosophy, modern “frequency” spirituality, transhumanism, cyberpunk fiction, and Internet occult culture. This will prevent everything “esoteric” from being thrown into one bucket. An especially useful correction is showing that The Kybalion's “Principle of Rhythm” belongs to a modern esoteric text and cannot simply be presented as an experimentally established physiological law.
- A “Fiction, Symbolism, and Predictive Programming” chapter. Create three clearly separated categories: (A) canonical fact inside the fictional universe; (B) reasonable literary interpretation; (C) claim about real-world intentional disclosure. For Cyberpunk, “Demons,” Soulkiller, Bartmoss, R.A.B.I.D.S., and the Blackwall can all be mapped this way. The biggest methodological insight is that proving A does not prove C. Then explain how a genuine predictive-programming hypothesis could actually be tested prospectively rather than retrospectively.
- A balanced AI chapter updated through September 2026. This matters because the paper bears a September 2026 date. The newest systematic literature does not support either extreme—“AI necessarily destroys cognition” or “AI simply makes everyone smarter.” A 2026 review of 67 empirical studies found benefits when AI was embedded in structured, inquiry-oriented settings, but cognitive offloading and poorer critical engagement under some unstructured uses. (ScienceDirect) Another 2026 framework explicitly recommends preserving “cognitive friction,” evaluation, metacognition, and AI-free phases. (ScienceDirect) This gives us an excellent constructive conclusion: use AI as an object of interrogation and research assistance, not an epistemic substitute.
- A “Third Places” mini-case study showing how to investigate conspiratorial claims correctly. The thread starts with something real: third places matter and closures/unequal availability can affect social connection. Research documents closures and significant geographic and socioeconomic disparities. (PubMed Central (PMC)) Then show exactly what additional evidence would be required to move from “third places declined” to “someone deliberately removed them to isolate society.” This may be the cleanest educational example in the entire paper.
- A formal safety appendix for the psychedelic/drug section. Since the thread moves from philosophy into actionable self-experimentation, the paper should visually distinguish that section. Importantly, the FDA issued its final psychedelic-drug clinical-investigation guidance in July 2026, emphasizing that these drugs create distinctive trial-design and safety issues. (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) NCCIH also emphasizes that psilocybin effects can be unpredictable and affected by combined drug use, health, set, and setting. (NCCIH) This makes the paper unusually current and gives us strong grounds for explaining why a forum-created MDMA/psilocybin/galantamine stack should not be transformed into a self-treatment protocol.
- “What the Thread Got Right.” Keep this as a substantial chapter rather than a courtesy paragraph. Include technological dependence, cognitive offloading, corporate incentives, social isolation, loss of third places, the genuine existence of classified research, real spiritual evil from the biblical perspective, legitimate concerns about idolatry/transhumanism, and the value of examining symbolism. Then explain precisely where each valid concern stops supporting the stronger theory. This shows that discernment is not synonymous with disbelief.
- “What Would Change Our Minds?” This could be exceptional. For each major disputed hypothesis, state evidence that would materially strengthen it. For example: authenticated documents demonstrating an intentional predictive-programming strategy; reproducible measurements showing computing infrastructure altering the alleged planetary current; controlled studies establishing a proposed sound-frequency treatment; primary-source evidence connecting the Cyberpunk writers' terminology to an actual occult program. A paper that openly states its own falsification conditions demonstrates genuine epistemic humility.
- An Internet-source methodology appendix. Record the exact 4chan thread number, retrieval date, individual post IDs, timestamps, links, archived copies if available, deleted/unavailable material, and which external links could or could not be independently verified. Add the warning that multiple posters called Anonymous cannot be assumed to be the same person. This alone prevents several common errors when analyzing imageboards.
- A source-quality hierarchy. Something like Tier 1: primary documents / Scripture / original fictional source / official technical material; Tier 2: peer-reviewed scholarship; Tier 3: academic reference works; Tier 4: reputable journalism; Tier 5: specialist reference sites/fandom documentation; Tier 6: forum posts/social media/screenshots; Tier 7: unattributed claims. A source's tier does not automatically determine truth, but it tells the reader how much independent corroboration is appropriate.
- A visual “Discernment Flowchart.” This could become a signature Library of Rickandria graphic: What exactly is being claimed? → Is it empirical, historical, theological, literary, or philosophical? → What evidence would that type of claim require? → Is the source primary? → Is there independent corroboration? → Are analogy and causality being confused? → Can it be falsified? → What alternative explanations exist? → What does Scripture actually say? → Conclusion proportional to evidence. Put Proverbs 18:17 and 1 Thessalonians 5:21 alongside it.
- A terminology/glossary section. Define terms that the thread uses loosely: AI, AGI, LLM, daemon/demon, Blackwall, Soulkiller, R.A.B.I.D.S., transhumanism, Hermeticism, Kybalion, yin/yang, predictive programming, egregore, memetics, apophenia, pattern perception, agency detection, falsifiability, cognitive offloading, third place, digital identity. A huge amount of bad reasoning starts when one word quietly changes meaning halfway through an argument.
- End with a constructive Christian conclusion rather than merely “thread debunked.” Something along the lines of: Christianity does not require believers to choose between credulity toward hidden narratives and blind trust in institutions. Scripture instead calls for sober-mindedness, truthful witness, testing, courage, humility, resistance to idolatry, recognition of genuine spiritual evil, acknowledgment of man's own sinful heart, and confidence that Christ—not technological collapse, elite exposure, psychedelic transformation, or informational purification—is the final answer to humanity's bondage.
That last distinction could become the paper's governing thesis:
The proper Christian response to technological anxiety is neither naïve trust nor esoteric certainty, but disciplined discernment: test the claim, test the source, test the reasoning, test the interpretation, and test every spiritual assertion against Scripture.
I would also give the finished paper four appendices: the complete annotated thread transcript; the claim-evidence matrix; a Scripture index showing every biblical passage used in context; and a full research bibliography with DOI/archival links and access dates. That would make the project substantially more rigorous and reproducible rather than merely longer.
I’ll turn this into a full research paper rather than just expanding the earlier rebuttal. I’ll preserve the thread’s sequence, quote only short excerpts, separate what the poster said / what evidence exists / what the reasoning does / what Scripture actually says, and add the claim matrix, methodology, psychology, historical context, safety appendix, glossary, and bibliography.
I’ve verified the thread is still live and preserved its post numbers/timestamps. I’m also tightening a few claims from our earlier draft: wherever the evidence only shows an association, the paper will say association; wherever a claim is merely unfalsifiable, it will not be mislabeled “false.”
The research pass is complete. One important editorial choice: I’m not going to reproduce the thread wholesale; instead, the appendix identifies each substantive post by number and gives a compact claim summary, while the body does the full analysis. That keeps the paper readable and lets the evidence—not a wall of copied forum text—carry the argument.
I’ve written this as a research paper rather than a polemic: the strongest version of each claim is heard first, then history, empirical evidence, psychology, interpretation, and Scripture are kept in their own lanes. I’ve also made uncertainty explicit wherever the evidence does not justify certainty.
No—we haven’t lost the substantive work already developed in the conversation. I still have the thread-analysis structure, the methodological distinctions, the major fact-check findings, the Scripture framework, and the 20-section expansion plan from the previous turns.
What failed was the long final delivery, not the underlying reasoning. The safest way to avoid another truncation/error is for me to write the paper in sequential finished sections rather than trying to push the entire manuscript in one massive response. I can keep continuity across sections and then, if you want, assemble the finished manuscript into a single DOCX/PDF afterward.
I’m continuing from the manuscript itself, not restarting. I’ll deliver this in finished, citable sections; this installment will establish the title page, abstract, methodology, source hierarchy, epistemic framework, and the opening thread analysis so the rest can build cleanly on it.
Here is the manuscript continuing as a finished paper rather than notes. I’m keeping this installment bounded so it does not hit the failure that affected the previous long response.
