THIS IS WHAT I WARNED ABOUT AND WHAT I EXPERIENCED IN THE ‘ MENTAL RAPES ‘ AND ‘ USE ‘ OF OUR SOLDIERS AND VETERANS BY FOREIGN ENTITIES. IT IS MUCH MORE THAN A ‘ WAR GAME.’
WHAT SWANN ‘ SENSED ‘ WAS A MASSIVE MISTAKE MADE IN A ‘ REPETITIVE PAST ‘ BASED ON A ‘ MATH SYSTEM ( beautiful mind ? ) ‘ THAT LENT ALOT OF WEALTH IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR, DESPITE POLITICAL OBJECTIVES. THIRD WORLD OBJECTIVES, PROBABLE OUTCOMES WHERE KNOWN; HERE AT HOME VOID OF BILLY GRAHAM AND RELIGION USED AS WAR ‘ FUEL.’
IN NEW WORLD OF METTAVERSE NO NEED FOR LIVING PEOPLE AS IDEA MAKERS AS ‘ THINKING ‘ BECOMES PROGRAMS AND ‘ CREATIVE PEOPLE ‘ BECOME OBSOLETE AND OR CAGED; SHORTENED BLUE COLLAR LIFE SPANS AND LIMITED NUMBERS-key- “ PACK-MAN.”
NEW AGE.

“ FILE – In this Oct. 12, 2021 file photo, Hadrien Gurnel, software engineer EPFL’s Laboratory for Experimental Museology (eM+) explores with a virtual reality helmet the most detailed 3D map of the universe with the virtual reality software VIRUP, Virtual Reality Universe Project developed by Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, in St-Sulpice near Lausanne, Switzerland. The term metaverse seems to be everywhere. Facebook is hiring thousands of engineers in Europe to work on it, while video game companies are outlining their long-term visions for what some consider the next big thing on the internet. Essentially, it’s a world of endless, interconnected virtual communities where people can meet, work and play. You can go to a virtual concert, take a trip online and try on digital clothing. But tech companies still have to figure out how to connect their online platforms.(Laurent Gillieron/Keystone via AP)
(THE CONVERSATION) The metaverse is coming. Like all technological innovation, it brings new opportunities and new risks.
The metaverse is an immersive virtual reality version of the internet where people can interact with digital objects and digital representations of themselves and others and can move more or less freely from one virtual environment to another. It can also involve augmented reality, a blending of virtual and physical realities, both by representing people and objects from the physical world in the virtual and conversely by bringing the virtual into people’s perceptions of physical spaces.
By donning virtual reality headsets or augmented reality glasses, people will be able to socialize, worship, and work in environments where the boundaries between environments and between the digital and physical are permeable. In the metaverse, people will be able to find meaning and have experiences in concert with their offline lives.”
“ Therein lies the rub. When people learn to love something, whether it is digital, physical, or a combination, taking that thing from them can cause emotional pain and suffering. To put a finer point on it, the things people hold dear become vulnerabilities that can be exploited by those seeking to cause harm. People with malicious intent are already noting that the metaverse is a potential tool in their arsenal.
Asterrorismresearchers at the National Counterterrorism Innovation, Technology, and Education Center in Omaha, Nebraska, we see a potential dark side to the metaverse. Although it is still under construction, its evolution promises new ways for extremists to exert influence through fear, threat, and coercion. Considering our research on malevolent creativity and innovation, there is potential for the metaverse to become a new domain for terrorist activity.
To be clear, we do not oppose the metaverse as a concept and, indeed, are excited about its potential for human advancement. But we believe that the rise of the metaverse will open new vulnerabilities and present novel opportunities to exploit them. Although not exhaustive, here are three ways the metaverse will complicate efforts to counter-terrorism and violent extremism.
Recruitment
First, online recruitment and engagement are hallmarks of modern extremism, and the metaverse threatens to expand this capacity by making it easier for people to meet up. Today, someone interested in hearing what Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes has to say might read an article about his anti-government ideology or watch a video of him speaking to followers about impending martial law. Tomorrow, by blending artificial intelligence and augmented reality in the metaverse, Rhodes or his AI stand-in will be able to sit on a virtual park bench with any number of potential followers and entice them with visions of the future.
Similarly, a resurrected bin Laden could meet with would-be followers in a virtual rose garden or lecture hall. The emerging metaverse affords extremist leaders a new ability to forge and maintain virtual ideological and social communities and powerful, difficult-to-disrupt ways of expanding their ranks and spheres of influence.
Coordination
Second, the metaverse offers new ways to coordinate, plan and execute acts of destruction across a diffuse membership. An assault on the Capitol? With sufficient reconnaissance and information gathering, extremist leaders could create virtual environments with representations of any physical building, which would allow them to walk members through routes leading to key objectives.
Members could learn viable and efficient paths, coordinate alternative routes if some are blocked, and establish multiple contingency plans if surprises arise. When executing an attack in the physical world, augmented reality objects like virtual arrows can help guide violent extremists and identify marked targets.”
