The Skynet Conspiracy






Skynet is a company in the fictional movie Terminator (1984) and Terminator - Judgment Day (1991) and others.



But to me Skynet is not fictional...

The movies are "predictive programming" long before any of this came to be.

In the fictional world of the movie, Cyberdyne - the company that created Skynet - was a computer firm operating out of Sunnyvale, California.

The street name was El Camino Real...

In reality, Sunnyvale, California, along with Mountain View, Menlo Park and Palo Alto are today Silicon Valley, the now world-famous center of computers, Internet and AI that developed in the 1990s and early 2000s.



El Camino Real is a real street and a mere 10 minute drive from today's Google Headquarters.

How did the writers of Terminator know this would become the world center of AI more than two decades later?

When the movie script was written in 1983, the term "Internet" was not yet public.

The writers used the word "Skynet".

From the Terminator Fan Wiki Page:

"A T-800 Terminator, which was sent from the future and designed to kill humans, programmed to assassinate Sarah Connor, was crushed in one of the hydraulic presses in Cyberdyne's factory.



Thus, the company obtained the machine's wreckage, including its CPU chip and an arm.


After its arrival in 1984, Meta-Node was able to reach Cyberdyne Systems Laboratory in Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado. It provided the technical data, which accelerated the development of Skynet.



This leap of engineering accelerated the events that led to Skynet achieving self-awareness, thereby making any Resistance futile.



The Meta-Node then served as an information tutor and guardian, uploading to the fledgling Skynet all the tactical data gathered about the future, then protecting it so it could carry out Judgment Day.



As Skynet of this timeline gained various knowledge from the Meta-Node, there would be no Resistance after the nuclear holocaust".

And:

"Cyberdyne eventually developed Skynet, a network of supercomputers that employed artificial intelligence in order to replace human beings as commercial and military aircraft pilots, and for the control of other military systems, including nuclear missiles.



The system went online on August 4, 1997.



On August 29, 1997, Skynet became self-aware.



In a panic, its creators attempted to shut it down, but Skynet retaliated by launching a nuclear attack against Russia, knowing that the Russian counterattack would eliminate its enemies in the United States, initiating an indeterminately long period of global warfare.



The battle pitted humans against Cyberdyne machines, which developed ever-increasing capabilities.



Although the company was presumably shut down or destroyed, the event was later known as Judgment Day.

In other words, the military created Skynet (Internet & Big Tech).



Cheyenne Mountain does not only exist in the fictional Universe, it's also a real military place beneath a mountain.

Skynet achieved self-awareness.



Then it used Robots to wage war against humans...

The Military runs Big Tech

It is true that the Internet was created by the military - by DARPA to be exact.

DARPA is short for "Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency".

They invented it in the 1960s, quarter of a century before they let us have it, and called it ARPANET.



One of the early Logos used by DARPA:



I assert that they didn't only create Internet, but all of Big Tech.



I think it's easy to prove and I'll try to right now...

In Mountain View, California the following companies share the same physical space:



Google

Lockheed

Microsoft

Air Force

Amazon

Hewlett Packard

NASA

Facebook

There are many Threads about separate parts like Internet,robotics,AI,military,surveillance,etc.BUT when you can see all together from a bird perspective then is a movie NO MORE...
There is a recent video about how with a laptop you can gain total control from cars electronics and you are soon death...

In the year 2000 came for first time a TV show with lethal drones (Dark angel...like always with a hottie as vehicle, and on top she is an introduction to "super soldiers "too,humm...)

Watch this video (warning)about drones in war ... the left video,watch it in full display modus...

https://projectavalon.net/forum4/sho...=1#post1649989

After all this come the question: Why are so in need for a nuclear war?
What should come after?...

This is NO more a science fiction movie

Google AI's Weaponization Could Help Trigger 'Flash-Wars' Escalating Too Quickly to Stop 05.02.2025



Google chipped further away at its defunct "Don't be evil" motto this week, dropping a passage from its principles on AI development committing not to use the technology for weaponry or surveillance. A leading independent cybersecurity expert told Sputnik why the move is fraught with grave risks.

“AI systems may interact with other network-connected infrastructure in unpredictable ways,” veteran independent cybersecurity expert and digital strategy specialist Lars Hilse explained.

This unpredictability “could potentially trigger flash-wars, which escalate too quickly for the human mind to comprehend, and for the human being to intervene,” Hilse said, highlighting the immense risks of handing defense-related issues over to AI to manage.

That’s not to mention the proliferation threat, the analyst, who recently authored a book, ‘Dominance on the Digital Battlefield’, dedicated to these very issues, said.

Humanity is only starting to understand the dangers and “unknown risks” associated with AI’s weaponization, Hilse said. “And particularly in a time where global conflict is imminent, we might want to resort to leaving that Genie in the bottle for now,” he urged.

Why Did Google Do It?

But the observer isn’t surprised by Google’s policy shift, with the “recalibration” dictated by the need “to align with market realities and geopolitical demands” and the “insanely lucrative” nature of the defense market.

Google’s new policy means it will be able to participate in these “highly lucrative defense contracts and government surveillance projects and strengthen its position in the AI race, particularly against their Chinese competitors,” Hilse said.

“The policy shift indicates a broader realignment of Silicon Valley with national defense aspirations and may even suggest that previous ethical barriers to military AI development are being systematically removed industry-wide to make allow for quicker reaction to market shifts in this - again - extremely lucrative, and previously unexplored field of business,” the expert summed up.

Silly I know, but I've been watching Dallas (1978) for a while now, currently at season 6. The differences to everything current are so staggering, I cannot watch anything made after 2000 anymore.

Modern productions are poisonous and weaponized.

Seems to me Idiocracy might be moved up a few hundred years earlier...

Here is another movie where a future agenda is spelled out. It's a silly comedy/cult/satire from 1993. (full movie below)

The Frighteningly Accurate Predictions the 1973 Movie “Soylent Green” Made About the 2020s

The 1973 movie "Soylent Green" takes place in 2022 and many of its darkest predictions have become reality in recent years. Here's a look at this bizarre movie's many accurate predictions.



Watching Soylent Green in 2026 is an odd, uncomfortable experience. While the movie is already supposed to be off-putting, realizing that some of its darkest predictions have become reality in recent years makes the experience rather surreal.

What’s stranger is that the movie takes place in exactly 2022, which is around the time some of these predictions have materialized in real life. And, although we’re far from the film’s catastrophic scenario, we’re clearly being pushed in that direction through careful social engineering.

Of course, this 1973 movie is not a perfect mirror of our day and age. Despite its attempts at looking futuristic, Soylent Green remains quintessentially 1970s, and its star, Charlton Heston, brings that distinct “old school movie star” aura that doesn’t really exist anymore.


Yeah, that doesn’t really look like 2022, more like exactly 1973.

Nevertheless, Soylent Green made dark predictions about our current decade that show impressive foresight and, apparently, insider knowledge of the elite’s true intentions. And, sadly, the movie is only getting more relevant as the years go by. Here are the movie’s many predictions that are becoming a reality.

Urban Decay

Soylent Green depicts a dystopian society where cities have turned into overpopulated hellscapes and the masses face severe shortages of food, water, and housing. Resources are scarce, as only the elite class can afford apartments in heavily guarded buildings.


Entire streets in the city are clogged with people living in makeshift encampments.

Now let’s look at some recent pictures from a couple of cities (and imagine them with the same brownish filter used in the movie).


Philadelphia, PA.


Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada.

In recent years, numerous cities in the Western world have seen the emergence of sprawling encampments where homeless people form entire communities at the edge of society. As cities deal with mass migration, rampant drug use, and lax policing, these “tent cities” are increasing in size and number. Some mayors not only tolerate these camps, but also normalize them as part of modern city life.

The direct result of these communities is the creation of 2nd-class citizens with no rights, no resources, and lives valued less. This is a core concept found in Soylent Green.


In the movie, most people are 2nd-class citizens. Here, they’re being scooped up and thrown into trucks, emphasizing their dehumanization and cattle-like status.

Another detail in the movie that is relevant in the 2020s is that many “peasants” wear facemasks.


The movie doesn’t explain why they wear these masks. However, one thing is obvious: Only the plebs wear those masks, never the eite.

While the prevalence of facemasks has died down since COVID, the elite absolutely want to see them make a comeback. And some circles still cling to them for dear life.
