Terry A. Davis: It's Okay We're From The Internet Ep.2 (Scrumpmonkey)

In the 1990s I chatted with Davis on Usenet. He was obviously very intelligent, but beyond that he was very honest and friendly. That is when he was in a state of mind to be so. On some odd occasions he'd collapse to incoherence between sentences. I mean in the sense that he'd connect his thoughts and ideas to things which seemed completely unrelated. I'm actually deeply saddened about the way he left us, because I believe we lost an extremely powerful soldier or general for God.

I don't have to repeat here some of the things Davis used to say in posts and videos. Most of it has been memed to such a degree it will outlive us all. What I'm thinking of now is my impression of Uncle Ted and others who have almost certainly been messed with in various ways by powerful and corrupt agencies.

  • We know they have plotted to drive specific individuals insane by harassment and defamation.
  • We know they focus tremendous attention on the most intelligent (high IQ, academic performance) people.
  • We know that they've deployed chemicals, radiation, sex, and deep psychological attacks against unsuspecting (and frequently innocent) people.

What if Terry was right about everything? I used to trust our authorities, at least to a certain extent, but after all we've seen why would I? I know Terry was a good man in an unfortunate state, and he tried to tell us things we didn't understand. And Terry was much more intelligent and accomplished than 99% of us.

Anyway, that's what's on my mind today. RIP King Terry. I really do miss you.
