We are lulled into thinking that more surveillance, more devices, and more virtual safety nets will protect our children. Yet beneath the polished slogans and technological promises lies a darker truth: reality itself is being eroded, traded away for simulations and dashboards, and formative years are being harvested by algorithms. What is sold as safety may, in fact, be the very thing that leaves the next generation less resilient, less embodied, and less free.

There are moments when the quiet hum of “progress” grows so loud it drowns out the voice of intuition. In this continuation of Soft Force, we peel back the curtain on the polished promises of modern science and social engineering, and ask: What is really being sold to us — and at what cost? Through the fog of problem–reaction–solution tactics, we trace the engineered narratives influencing conception, parenting, and the very meaning of what it is to be human.
The artificial does not arrive by accident. It is invited, sold, normalized — until what once felt foreign begins to feel inevitable. But underneath the noise, something in us still knows what is real.
In an age of hyperconnectivity and spiritual dislocation, we often mistake noise for knowledge and branding for wisdom. But beneath the endless churn of modern systems lies something older, quieter, and truer — a memory not lost, but buried. In this conversation, we trace the thread of the Golden Rule back through millennia, seeking not novelty but remembrance.
In order to be as predictable as a politician, you have to go through life with your head down, obeying and abiding by what others tell you to do, and to be a good little boy or girl. Unfortunately, this means that as an adult, you may have a lot of work to do because this kind of behavior is destructive, both to yourself and to those around you. You have no idea who you are, what you want, or why you’re even here. You may not even be willing to question your motivations or dig into the reasons for your blind obedience to external authorities. Not good enough.
