This was an amazing post, with an amazing perspective! Thanks for sharings your thoughts and energy! I hadn't thought about Meta this way yet... But I did figure out that Meta-Verse loosely translates to Death Turn, or to change from one nature to another...
The word meta in Hebrew means "is dead". I have found the definition before, however, since that went viral over the medias poking fun at Zuckerberg for that very reason... I can't find the definition site I used to look it up... It seems that any reference to meta in ancient Hebrew has been largely omitted from search engine results and instead we are pointed to the original Greek meanings... This is probably on purpose so that they can claim that it's not true and just hearsay...
meta- Origin and meaning of meta- word-forming element of Greek origin meaning 1. "after, behind; among, between," 2. "changed, altered," 3. "higher, beyond;" from Greek meta (prep.) "in the midst of; in common with; by means of; between; in pursuit or quest of; after, next after, behind," in compounds most often meaning "change" of place, condition, etc. This is from PIE *me- "in the middle" (source also of German mit, Gothic miþ, Old English mið "with, together with, among").
The notion of "changing places with" probably led to the senses of "change of place, order, or nature," which was a principal meaning of the Greek word when used as a prefix (but it also denoted "community, participation; in common with; pursuing").
verse (n.) late Old English (replacing Old English fers, an early West Germanic borrowing directly from Latin), "line or section of a psalm or canticle," later "line of poetry" (late 14c.), from Anglo-French and Old French vers "line of verse; rhyme, song," from Latin versus "a line, row, line of verse, line of writing," from PIE root *wer- (2) "to turn, bend." The metaphor is of plowing, of "turning" from one line to another (vertere = "to turn") as a plowman does.
So the term Meta-verse is basically a symbolic message saying that Facebook is dead and has changed (or is in the process of change) from one line (path) to a new/higher line (path)
When you factor in the White Hats, then this was evidently a message to patriots!!!
