Philosopher David Skrbina on Coronavirus and Technology

Listen HERE Philosopher David Skrbina, author of The Metaphysics of Technology, joins us to ponder the corona-technology interface.

David Skrbina on “Technological Slavery” and panpsychism

Listen HERE Philosophy professor David Skrbina edited Ted “the Unabomber” Kaczynski’s book Technological Slavery which I finally got around to reading.

Introducing…the DUMBPHONE

“What it is, see, is…well, it looks just like a Smartphone, except it’s really, REALLY dumb.” By Kevin Barrett, VT Editor Here at VT we’re always trying to figure out how to make a quick buck… …without selling our souls to the avaricious avatars of ultimate evil. Easier said than done. Some of us have set up little side-businesses. Gordon Duff sells hand-crafted high-grade military weapons. Jim Fetzer invests in 9/11 truth conferences(but hasn’t quite hit the jackpot yet). Jim Dean can get you wholesale discounts on confederate flags.
