​Pack a bowl and settle in, because today we’re de-fragging the soul of the galaxy.

In Dune, the Orange Catholics say: Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind. We're doing it anyway! But machines aren't people, man!

​We’re hitting the Butlerian Jihad—and no, we aren't just talking about Brian Herbert’s "Terminators in Space" vibe. We’re going deeper. We’re tracing the smoke back to Samuel Butler and Frank Herbert’s original paranoia: the idea that we didn't get conquered by AI, we got conquered by the men using the AI.

​We’re breaking down how humanity didn't just smash their computers because they were "evil," but because we were tired of being "managed" by algorithms and the handful of corporations that own them. It’s a 10,000-year-old sci-fi warning that feels way too loud in 2026.

​On the table today:

• ​Why "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind" is the ultimate "unplug and touch grass" commandment.
• ​How we traded our intuition for convenience (and why that’s a bad trip).
• ​Modern Silicon Valley as the new "Thinking Machines"—are we already living in the pre-Jihad?
• ​Why the real revolution isn't against the robot; it's against the guy who programmed it to take your job.

​The vibes are high, the tech is banned, and the Mentat logic is starting to make way too much sense. Let's get into it.
