Death is the event horizon of morality. Which reality you occupy depends exclusively upon which side you choose, and only the outside choice will set you free.
If there is nothing after death, then morality consists exclusively of satisfying your bodily appetites. If instead, there is a part of you that will pass beyond death, then nurturing that part of you is obviously more important than a body doomed to fail in threescore and ten. Morality begins with the realization that we are not our bodies.
Animals do perfectly fine when they indulge their bodily appetites without limit. Humans die off. Is there a more obvious disproof of evolution than the repeatedly confirmed observation, that humans doing what feels good always leads to self-destruction? Women kill their children, men quit working. You ever seen a beaver quit working?
What we should do is not what we want to do.
Thus, along with the awareness that we are not our bodies is the awareness that we have a Creator and are corrupted from what (who) we should be. Most religions choose oblivion at the point of admitting this. Literal oblivion for Buddhists, reincarnation for most others… endless replacement bodies… and the remainder, the most inbred level of stupid, imagine a paradise of endlessly indulging… our bodily appetites.
The purpose of life for us who accept the truth, then, becomes restoration of our spiritual selves. This is not to deny the importance of our bodies or our mortal lives, because they are the tools we have to work with. What we choose to do becomes who we are. This is obviously a very individual process.
In Current Year Clown World, this restoration is endangered by the insistence that with sufficient technology, humans are all the same. Just as militant atheists deny God then try to kill God again, and feminists claim gender is a social construct then mutilate the gender evidence of helpless children, the Progressive claims anybody can be good at anything then buries the failures under a rug of automation.
AI to assist 911 operators fielding repetitive stressful calls to prevent burnout amid understaffing problem

Artificial intelligence technology is already being integrated within 911 emergency call centers to assist operators struggling with burnout amid an understaffing problem.
A study published by the National Emergency Number Association found that 82% of 911 call centers in the United States are understaffed, and 75% of operators reported feeling burned out.
Walden University reported that approximately 240 million emergency calls are made in the country yearly, which averages roughly 600,000 daily.
That doesn’t sound like a technical problem. It sounds like a human-management problem.
On the demand side, maybe government shouldn’t recommend that everybody call 911 at the drop of a hat. There have been efforts to reduce demand over the years, but none have worked well.
Your local police probably have a phone number for non-emergency requests for service. Not a bad idea to program it into your phone.
On the supply side, not everybody can handle the emotional stress of a 911 call center. If this means centers are understaffed, then the solution is to reduce demand, not hire people who aren’t wired to take the heat.
Sometimes you have to work a McJob to get by. I’ve been there myself. But if you make a career of doing work that is a bad fit for who you are, then nobody is going to win.
The spiritual aspect of that is becoming urgent thanks to the Progressivism cult. One of their core beliefs is that anybody can do anything with sufficient levels of technological assistance. Write a book? Push a button. Troubleshoot a power plant? Push a button. Emotional breakdown after the local orphanage explodes? Push… a… button.
North Central Texas Emergency Communications District, which oversees 40 emergency call centers in Texas, told Fox News Digital that it is integrating artificial intelligence to assist operators and monitor mental health.
[NCT911 Director Christy] Williams hopes the technology will flag tragic calls and alert supervisors when an operator may need to take a break. The AI system will listen for specific keywords or detect the tone of the caller’s voice to detect higher levels of stress.
Williams told Fox News Digital that she believes the technology could streamline work and be a game changer for protecting the mental health of operators.
Only a woman could think that spying on her underlings more closely, will HELP them manage their stress levels.
Boss: “Sue, the Microsoft Psycho app says you’re about to pop. Need a hug?”
Sue: “Thanks, boss! I love how Big Brother is always looking out for me! Maybe I’m just not cut out for this work.”
Boss: “Nonsense! Everybody find this work stressful.”
Larry: “I don’t. I can listen to a home invasion while eating a cheeseburger.”
Boss: “You’re sick, Larry. And you make other people seem… incompetent. Wait! What we need is an AI to help us manage our mental health, not just an app.”
Larry: “This place wasn’t obsessed with mental health before we let all you chicks in.”
Boss: “You better learn to care about my mental health real quick, Larry.”
In fact, that’s one of the most heartless, inhuman, ass-covering managerial policies I’ve smelled since…

I know someone who is a physician. When the COVID hysteria hit, he was skeptical and refused to wear a mask unless he was in surgery. This made him a subject of whispering and sniping and he got hauled in before the CEO and the administration and told to wear a mask. He pulled out a mask in the factory packaging with a sticker on it that said “DOES NOT PROTECT AGAINST COVID-19” and showed it to the CEO.
He was told “Wear it anyway.”
End segue
In partnership with Amazon’s subsidiary, Amazon Web Services, NCT911 is testing an AI system that will monitor operators’ calls and keep track of stressful conversations.
The usual suspects. Nothing says Twenty-First Century like “This is 911, what’s your social credit score?”
AI could also be implemented to resolve any potential language barriers. Carbyne, a software company, can automatically translate Spanish to English for 911 operators, cutting down time previously needed to transfer calls to a translator.
That wouldn’t be a problem in a monocultural society. Import the entire Third World and you’ll never speak to your neighbor again, because language barriers. Progressives constantly go out of their way to violate natural human behavior, and then trust, or hope, that technology will fix the resulting consequences.
In hindsight, Star Trek’s universal translator was the faggiest piece of Progtardism on the entire show. I thought it was just a McGuffin for conveniences’ sake… but it’s exactly what would make a managerial Federation think that multiculturalism in pressurized environments is a great idea.
Which means the Borg wasn’t a threat to the Federation, it was the Federation’s inevitable future. Its Nemesis following Hubris.
That’s the goal of real-life Progressives and their fascination for technology. They hope to twist humanity into arbitrary shapes, then escape the consequences. The predictable result of that is everybody wishing they were dead because they cannot be… themselves.
The proper response, then, is to figure out who God made you to be, and who you want to be based on what God has provided thus far, and go in that direction. That should be trivial but it’s not in Current Year. Just being human is becoming an effort.
As we saw with this example of Amazon imposing Big Brother on 911 call centers to ensure that the emotionally vulnerable women err, workers they hired, don’t go Postal. It’s no accident that they don’t trust the workers to know themselves well enough to ask for help… that’s exactly the kind of self-knowledge and self-ownership that the Progressives DON’T want.
If a woman did what she was wired to do, what God meant her to do, she’d be raising a family instead of listening to a family die. But that’s a patriarchal heteronormative stereotype, therefore a worse fate than putting an AI on permanent suicide watch over your staff.
Good work pointing out the fine line between morality and mortality. It’s a “t”, which is a cross.
“You ever seen a beaver quit working?”
I will, when my brother applies his .22 to the beaver that’s been killing his trees, lol.
We’re all in this together, comrade.
This is the glorious Fundamental Transformation that your fellow borgians clapped like train seals for.
Equality of results for all, you’ll own nothing because property is theft.
To each according to his need, workers of the world unite.
Forward, si se puede!
