PLATFORMS and AGGREGATION play a huge role now more than ownership
A LAYMAN’S OBSERVATIONS—EMERGING TRENDS AND OUR EARLY BIRD ADVANTAGE
PLATFORMS and AGGREGATION play a huge role now more than ownership.
1. The NEW NATIONS that inform, connect, and integrate groups
almost like nations are TWITTER, FACEBOOK, WHATSAPP, and SKYPE.
What have they done?
PLATFORM PROVIDERS
Just provided PLATFORMS for people to communicate, to express, to
exhibit, to share, etc. The content is by many who do not own anything in that
cos., nor do those companies produce content. These, of course, do not involve
any physical transaction or movement of anything.
2. SERVICE PROVIDERS
The NEW INDUSTRIES
What do they do?
UBER does not either drive or own the vehicles but
plays a big role in the 'MOBILITY INDUSTRY' (which was perceived earlier to be the 'automobile industry'), in fact, leading to a reduction in the number of
individual vehicles. It has done what highly invested metro infrastructure
could not do.
SWIGGY and ZOMATO do not own any restaurants, nor do
they cook food, but they are the top players in the FOOD INDUSTRY (which was
perceived earlier to be the 'restaurant/hotel business').
The importance of AGGREGATION and SERVICES of the AGGREGATORS: these two simplified activities have indicated two vital things: one, people need/want something, and what they want must reach them, even if they
cannot go hunting for what they want. Herein comes the DELIVERY INDUSTRY (which was perceived earlier to be ‘postal services/courier’).
3. The NEW SUPERPOWERS
Amazon and Google combined these three and are
becoming the POWERFUL GREAT INDUSTRIES.
These oversimplified versions of activities may appear awe-inspiring, but
none of them can survive without two vital aspects: AGGREGATORS &
OWNERS (or producers/manufacturers/warehouses, centralized kitchens, etc.).
4. Beneath these oversimplified versions of successful business models,
there exists a new ecosystem of various activities that are highly
interconnected, interrelated, and interdependent, and all these players in the
ecosystem get propped up and their business gets promoted.
5. By extension, a similar concept can be tried and implemented: a CREATION
OF SOLUTION and OVERALL ECO-SYSTEM in a niche area of HEALTHY
FOOD, namely SNACKS & BEVERAGES.
6. We PROP UP THE MANUFACTURERS and connect the health-conscious
customers.
7. This is precisely what Amazon and Google have decided to do
indirectly through the much-publicized US$ billions of investment and made it
clear that the entire investment is going to have a vise-like grip on the SMALL
and MSME segments, which the government is throwing up for grabs.
On what basis do I say this? AMAZON has made it clear that this entire investment is
going to be in a] another platform, which will have access to all our data, ‘CLOUD SERVICES,' and GOOGLE, and b] FINTECH, especially to ‘ENABLE EXPORTS AND TO EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS AND
SMALL BUSINESSES TO COMPETE GLOBALLY.'
Good and great intentions, but one has read between the lines and what
lies behind these stated intentions and what can happen in the long run.
8. The NEW AMAZON and GOOGLE story
As many, including the GOI, suffer from varying degrees of ignorance
and get carried away by a few latest and recently hyped tech
advancements, which are also in a way new platforms like 'AI cloud services,' etc., it is easier to claim big investments (they
are at best tools and new means to operate and to deliver services) without
dedicated servers and/or multilayered backup. Without cybersecurity, it is
always vulnerable (I am not saying that they may not have factored in
those criteria with such huge investments, but at times both hype and
paranoia become blind, as it did during the Y2K problem or the Anthrax scare during the war in Iraq).
9. However, those who produce raw materials, products, and other
tangible assets are THE ULTIMATE KINGS/QUEENS in any
commercial activity.
The rest are either some form of beneficiaries
or at best members of the harem who are around with various hidden agendas to
capitalize on the king's weaknesses.

Theatre of life in society
27th March is celebrated as International Theatre Day.
The ‘Froth Filler’ anointed as ‘Fourth Pillar’-
The Main Architects
of Anarchy
Let us explore what has happened to the theater of life in society.
Let us explore the abysmal appropriations and claims of the
terminology ‘Fourth Pillar’ as referring to the press read as the
Mainstream Media Mafia.
I wanted to know how come this ‘froth filler' on the
substance of most issues managed to hijack and hype itself to be in the
company of other institutions, which are accountable, electable, require
relevant qualifications, and must wade through immense competition and be subject
to public scrutiny and both legal and constitutional validations and approvals.
Though this term is claimed to have been coined by Thomas Carlyle and almost ignorantly parroted by everyone, including many members of the
so-called other three pillars.
Present day,
for everything and anything, everyone jumps to googling, either to get answers or
to clarify or to verify or to confirm, and so on. Therefore, all of you please feel free to do
so after reading or while reading this. You may be puzzled to know this fourth
pillar is used for multiple aspects, at times referring to culture, at times to
sustainable development and some other times to environmental concerns, etc.
The press/MSM [Mainstream Media] was never considered a pillar; it was referred to as an "estate."
The first use of the term ‘Fourth Estate’ itself is
shrouded in claims and counterclaims, beginning from crediting Henry Fielding (1707-54) with using it
in his writing to the first verified usage occurring in an 1828 essay on the Constitutional History of England (1827) by Henry Hallam, written by the British
historian and politician Thomas Macaulay (1800-59):
But on
record it gained popularity after Edmund Burke mentioned it mockingly in
1787 about the press (what we call now MSM—mainstream media) as the 'Fourth Estate,' the other three being the Clergy (theocracy), the Nobility
(aristocratic elites who lapped up the colonial loot), and the Commoners.
[This is the pathetic track record of the so-called high priests of
democracy, human rights, minority rights, etc]. While the other three were
subject to approval and acceptance of the royalty [another unelected lingering
legacy], the fourth one was mostly submissive to royalty.
As most
words and expressions undergo metamorphosis or mutilation or malleability
to make room for emerging situations.
This 'Fourth Estate’ was somehow smuggled by the self-appropriating labels assigning the industry of MSM and repackaged as the 'Fourth Pillar,' as that term would give a
greater aura to the profession of self-appointed know-it-alls and judge-all
universal umpires and referees of every drama on the theater of human life.
In the
process, this bunch of superficial reporters and journalists has dominated
the space of imparting information and public discourse and ended up mutilating the significance of great writers,
scholarly writings, and great authors who engage, educate, and enlighten the
readers.
Now these MSMs are the architecture of anarchy.
The architecture of building (using international networks) an
aura of reform to create anarchy and terrorism in societies.
Unless this malignant cancer is addressed globally, it can kill many more
societies. One may call these cancers LEFT liberalism, WOKE ideology, or any
other terminology.
The basic structure of this architecture.
Sermonizing (religious terminology)
on social reforms (sociology), fighting economic inequality (economics), and victimhood peddling (usual Leftover LEFT
ideologies trying to survive with new masks and terminologies).
Engineering (a terminology of science)
ideologically chiselled narratives (modern paid journalistic
biased reporting smeared with opinion columns camouflaged as media studies)
to generate mass dissent (political science) and execute these
to clinical perfection (medical terminology) by parachuting
carefully chosen popular personalities, either well-known personalities or celebrities
(bureaucrats/Bollywood stars, etc.), notorious professionals who
are of immense utility in terms of nuisance value (legal fraternity and paid
media mafia), letting one gullible nice old man as a figurehead (euphemism for puppet) with optics, operations, and overhyped sainthood cum
social reformer (adorning with images of a cap well recognized by the
masses as part of freedom (dumb) struggle and posturing of a well-accepted
personality accredited as spearheading India's Freedom movement, spiced with some
people with so-called educational backgrounds (in fact, mere academic
achievement of specific subjects which may not impart any actual
knowledge of lived experience on the ground or equip or enable or empower one with
necessary credentials to involve in real governance which requires too many
things).
These types of internationally orchestrated 'anarchy and dissent,'
which are portrayed as civil disobedience movements, are as harmful, if not
more harmful in impact, than organized terror outfits (while the latter
manifests in a few gory violent activities, the former is an
injected malign cancer that stays permanently in the collective social psyche,
pollutes academic institutions of higher education, permeates everywhere, and eats
into the social fabric).
It kills harmony by lingering around longer, causing long-term damage to
the collective social psyche, and hinders any productive developmental
activity.
Big economies, well-meaning nations on the path of development, and
societies that seek real peace and social harmony must collectively engage in
seriously creating an international organization (the UN is perceived as a mute spectator) to address this collective
social and psychological cancer by legally disallowing (keeping
away the hypocrisy of democratic rights and freedom of expression, the two
multipurpose masks) violence, riots, and anarchic dissent disturbing the normal life of everyone in the name of any cause or ideology.
At academic institutes, even at the primary level, children must be taught to avoid anarchy and violence as venom. This must be done for the sake of
peace and harmony.
We do not live only
for or exclusively on or by any ideology and need not live for any
ideology either,
but instead lead life with peace and let others as well have that privilege of peace.
Every ideology, principle, and value system has
its own merits and demerits, its own contextual relevance.
Similarly, the life of every individual, society, and nation has its own priorities besides, beyond, and between the multitude of
conflicting, contradictory ideologies; doctrines of religion and politics; and the multitude of social engineering 'isms' that crop up under various masks with different labels like social reform, liberalism, capitalism, communism, national legal systems, socio-culturally enforced traditions, and moral
and ethical systems.
Reproducing below some of the slides that I have made in the past to drive home certain facts and drive away the divisive narratives of the MSMs.

Politics without morals and Psychopolitics.
Yes, in politics there is no moral or ethical high ground and even legal and constitutional matters can be managed when in power.
1.Politic is an open story but
woven around certain principles that ensure power and victory at any cost or at
all costs.
2.The principle of flexibility to accommodate euphemism for expediency
and opportunism.
3. It is open ended enough to accommodate anything and anyone as well as
get rid of anyone or anything.
4.It is a story where justifications will masquerade as reasons.
5. Till the heroes come to power no one is indispensable and that's why
they spend a few crores to go and have a lunch with a poor person insides his/
her hut; visit religious heads and prostrate at the feet of priests; do photo
ups with film stars and sports stars, in short anything or anyone they perceive
will have mass appeal emotionally and make the public numb to any logical
thinking.
6. However, once they are in power and position anyone and everyone is
dispensable, because they are too busy to be available and accessible to
anyone.
7. Human gullibility and tendency to outsource most of its activities in
the name and form of comfort was, has been and is being exploited through
command-and-control mechanism by different institutions at different points of
evolution of human history.
8. First, the religions through its heroes, divine beings, myths
and claims of epics did these.
9. After that, the empires did these.
10.Then the politicians do them.
11. Finally, a combo of politics, lobbies, mafias, big
corporates with global presence along with highly impactful technology driven
access and analysis to information with marketing and publicity have captured
this ‘command-and-control mechanism’ in the form of governments. [Bold lettered
words in points 8,9,10 and 11-grammatical order of words of sequence to be
used].
12. Sequence is important, politicians are master strategists at
managing and manipulating sequences and they are aware of and prepared to face
any consequences.
13. Present day politics requires both grasping the ‘information-rich and
data filled sequences and systems’ and play the game accordingly. In any game
victory is important, no one plays to lose any game. As technologies progress
further monitoring, surveillances will also become part of this game.
14. The vulnerabilities and gullibility of human beings have been
effectively exploited through many brainwashing techniques and propaganda
mechanisms.
15. Well nuanced narratives with catchy slogans and snatchy
communications and designed and delivered as effective tools.
As Stephen C. Meyer writes, " It is not correct to say that
we do not know how specified complexity or information content arises. We know
from experience that conscious intelligent agents can and do create specified
information-rich sequences and systems. Furthermore, experience teaches that
whenever large amounts of specified complexity or information content are
present in an artifact or entity whose causal story is known, invariably
creative intelligence -- design -- has played a causal role in the origin of
that entity".
I am extremely happy to see this video as I have always been against
overvaluing any person or product without much of utility, ability,
disproportionate trade off , not so much of aesthetic value, but has somehow
intruded into the scheme of human activities because of its ornamentation value
without much of intrinsic value [after all a carbon crystal structure]

This is the case with many human belief systems. The vulnerability and
gullibility of human beings have been effectively exploited through many
brainwashing techniques and propaganda mechanisms.
In some cases, these techniques entangle the victims into obsession and
addiction appealing to some or all the sensory organs giving sometimes some
monetary physical pleasure [ at least that is justifiable for what it is worth]
but then there are obsessions which are promoted at very high cost just for a
belief that it is a sic status symbol. It is high time the much precious time,
energy and wealth are not wasted on these trivialities hoisted on crowns and
infused with an artificial aura of greatness.
The well nuanced narratives are further spiced by appealing, titillating,
tempting presentations and endorsed by personalities who are beautiful, rich,
successful, powerful and popular.
This is a well designed and developed subject called psychopolitics, by
no means confined to politics but it spills into all domains, it has existed
much before politics as a recognized subject emerged.
In fact, every human activity that embarked on the mission of gathering and
bringing together multitude of individuals under a specific classification or
category through labels, brands, appealing slogans , symbols, heroic deeds ,
inducing with reward and punishment etc and many have been mastering this
subject of creating mass opinion moulding activities through various means.
Politics, commerce, and media have made this into a full-fledged business and
industry.
What is Psychopolitics?
I keep repeating the word ‘ the next’ just to reiterate and maintain
scrupulously the order and sequence.
Psychopolitics is the art and science of asserting and maintaining
dominion over the thoughts and loyalties of individuals, officers,
and masses and the effecting of the conquest of all others through
"mental/psychological healing."
The subject of Psychopolitics breaks down into several categories, each
a natural and logical progression from the last. Its first subject is the
constitution and anatomy of man, himself, as a political organism.
The next is an examination of man as an economic organism, as this might
be controlled by his desires.
The next is classification of State goals or religious goals for the
individual and masses.
The next is an examination of loyalties.
The next is the general subject of obedience.
The next is the anatomy of the stimulus-response mechanisms of
man.
The next is the subject of shock and endurance.
The next is categories of experience.
The next is the catalyzing and aligning of experience.
The next is the use of derogatory labels, pressures, collective
boycotting, and tortures, terrorism either promoted through religious or
political or economic identity or ideology and so on.
All in very simple terms manifestations of intolerance whatever be the
name we may give to them.
The next is the use of implantation.
The next is the general application of Psychopolitics by spreading its
octopusian tentacles
The next is the organization and use of counter-Psychopolitics.
The next is the use of Psychopolitics in the conquest of unwilling and
non co- operating inferior folks.
The next is psychopolitical organizations everywhere with some willing
local participants who are capable of operating with hidden agenda.
The next is the creation of slave philosophy in a hostile territory
making you slaves not necessarily always physically but economically,
psychologically and socially.
The next is countering anti-psychopolitical activities and the final
one, the destiny of psychopolitical rule in a so-called scientific age.
To this might be added many subcategories, such as the nullification of
individual rights and many other better options etc.
Psychopolitics is more effective particularly when used in a nation
decayed by pseudo-intellectualism in academics, national betrayal in politics,
and corruption in economic activities, cultural degradation in social life etc
and in this environment exploitation of the masses by using psycho political
actions is very easy and effective.
It starts as brainwashing and ends up subverting a whole lot of people.
Mainstream Media [MSM] plays a huge role here.
Peter Sedgwick's Psychopolitics explains in detail the process.

important
