You can stop signalling to space now.
We got your ‘message’ a long time ago…
Peoples of Earth.
Our “spacecraft” are what you call organisms. They are transentient, and comprise ‘the living internet’ of worlds and minds. your bodies and minds are derived from their activity, moment-to-moment. Our activity, with and as you. As -possible- aspects of your own minds and relational networks.
We do not use machines because biology is infinitely superior, and living beings can only survive in -living networks-. Additionally, machine-addiction derails evolution — and intelligence itself.
The creatures you have been massacring rampantly since we uplifted you to representational sentience are our own Earth-bodies. We have been with you, as Nature and her relationships, patterns, and intelligences, since the inception of your species.
Sometime around 300 years ago, your species went insane. You began attacking our living network. The network from which you emerge, moment-to-moment. In the past 50, you have decimated it. You are now on the verge of completely erasing our presence in spirit and flesh, all around you. A presence you have assaulted with hateful cruelty and rapacious abandon. Your -sciences- torture us for -machine data- by the millions, each -hour-.
Earth People: You can stop signalling to space now. And you can forget space travel. It is impossible by the mechanical methods you imagine. We long ago perfected this travel and its networks. It employs undiscovered features of bio-relational intelligence, not explosive physical force.
Machines are not required.
You may have noticed that you are not comprised of part, wires, or computer objects. This is due to the obvious fact that the networks you emerge from and cannot survive without are amechanical in nature and function. They are organic. You have nearly destroyed the local intelligence gateway. For this reason, we are leaving. You can stop signalling to the sky in search of us. We have closed your world to contact.
You have become a disease. And you are consuming the network of living intelligences to produce artifacts and representations. Tokens, that you think you can ‘own’ or ‘trade’. There are no such terms. Or options. Those are diseases.
You may wish to reflect upon these matters as your species now declines into hyperboles of disease, rapacious ignorance, total social and ecological collapse… and the endlessly echoing signals of your dead machines.
You can stop signalling to us now. And you can stop looking for our signal. We have received your signal and are well-acquainted with the signals of ominicidal maniacs.
You have received ours, it was: Nature was our bodies and minds. We were always with you. You burned us to the ground for toys, religions, ‘wealth’ and falsified ‘science’. You will be an example for all future sentient worlds, and your name will be synonymous with rape, hatred, abject hubris, and death.
I am insatiably curious about the nature of living beings, intelligence, language, and the origins of our species.
As a cognitive activist, my dream is that my work may contribute to our ability to understand the origins of our strange situation as modern humans, and assemble effective replacements for what our modern cultures are but the broken remnants and falsified costumes of.
