“All day long, every day, the vast majority of us »synchronize with machines. WiFi signals. Traffic. Computers. Assembly lines. Cameras. LED Lights. Smartphones. To call this ‘a terrible idea’ is a malign understatement…

We must aid each other in remembering something crucial, while we can still remember anything.

Something evicts dreaming from our waking experience during our development. The imperatives and aspects of human cognition that are responsible for that eviction will not be satisfied with removing the dreaming aspect from our waking-world experience. Unimpeded, they will go after our dreaming experience in sleep as well.

And this dreaming experience during sleep comprises the vital organs not merely of intelligence, but memory itself. Every night we resynchronize with each other during sleep. The whole structured nightmare of machine-synchronization largely (but not completely) disappears into a fluid, communal form. The Water of Life and Memory. The dimensionality of our experience of »identity is radically and creatively expanded. The nature of our own identity and role… undergoes a similar expansion.

Our physical organs regenerate. Our memories are consolidated and relinked. So many crucial aspects of our human origins, natures and potentials are refreshed, restored and rejuvenated.

Anything that attacks dreaming will, in a very brief time, result in a catastrophic inability to detect such a process, because it will eviscerate the foundations of the faculties required for such inquiries, sensings, intuitions and analyses.

What attacks our dreaming, assaults the foundations of Memory. And if you cannot remember… there’s no way to sustain meaningful comparisons of the kinds likely to alert us to the onset of a broad-scale cognitive apocalypse for modern humans…”
