Here are a couple of interesting stories about people being encouraged to talk on public transport.
We have a small minibus on our route and its a personal service with a driver who talks. And even opens the door for us.
People on that mini bus actually talk to each other. He even stops between stops if you are late or wave him down and lets you off a specific places if you really need to stop outside the doctors or somewhere.
www.independent.co.uk/life-style/public-transport-chat-train-bus-commute-crossing-divides-loneliness-a8958261.htmlwww.bbc.com/news/uk-48622007With the buses empty half the time, the should run these smaller buses through the daytime and only need full size buses at morning or end of the work shift time.
The main issue with the talking buses especially when there are stops every 50 to 100 meters is that it never shuts up. And after a long day at work or early on a morning you want peace. And to enjoy the journey.
I think its a culture of Obsession with technology and money.. they are buying the technology which is more tax for government and its adding this control element into the equation as well... which is the direction the government is going in with card that are locked down and have warnings and buzzers.
This is where we enter the scary realm of remote control and accidents set up...
Such as Cieran Morris the young child who was hit very mysteriously close to election times where the Liberal Democrats have a strong Candidate Cieran Morrissey...
And could beat the Tory and Conservative party's who are tbe major flip sides of the coin of this ongoing corporation and consumerism domination of us...
Richard Branson, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bazo, and these elite who are creating a separate division of humans who are beyond tbe political reach of us.
We already are under a hypnosis and addiction to their foods and phone products and advertising...
Successfully.. just like their monkey game experiments..
Tbey have us obeying noises... reward noises like on Camelot online scratchcard games...
And punishment noises.. distressing and upsetting "inflicting" painful and irritating sounds upon us until we comply with their commands.
They have installed machines that without a fair trail in a court of law... are designed to inflict punishment on us immediately if we dont comply.
This is the tip of the iceberg into where we are heading....
And this is one of the reasons why Extinction Rebellion are protesting and campaigning against Macdonalds as well as all major companies that pollute the environment.
Shurely repetitive loud fake digital voice that never stops cannot be good for a human mind. It cannot relax and heal the mind.
It is harmful, distressing and annoying.
Brain activities, thinking, the imagination, talking to real people, looking at scenery, knowing and seeing where you are... exercising the memory all keep us in the best mental condition.
These executives and corporate people behind these bus companies unfortunately are very out of touch with humanity.
Buisness deals, contract, proffit.. revenue unfortunately is their priority.
Why is it that smaller buses are cheaper, friendly and all about human interaction and building community and trust and positive local culture.
Not about being directed and controlled by machines, adverts, drive though and consumerism..
There needs to be a movement to oppose these transport Executives.
Fair enough if there are disabled people or blind or deaf people.. i don't have an argument against that for technology..
But the smaller mini bus has a driver that actually helps people in and out. Shurely smaller buses are cheaper?
We should not have to endure very very repetitive and loud, unnecessary computer voices never ending over and over when its plain to see where we are. We know where we are going... and its our own area. And the route was fine without it before.
Especially when nobody was surveyed about it. Or asked if they wanted it. It was just forced on them.
Many times the bus is completely empty.
So who is the Electronic voice talking to when the bus is empty?
Also a driver today was going so fast that he flew past the bus stop even though the voice was talking and i still missed my stop. So really its pointless.
We should be able to request its turned down or turned off especially if we have a medical condition.
All they are interested in are medical conditions that give them an excuse to introduce this technology.
Blind, Deaf, shirt sighted (spectacles)
Those are pro the system being used.
But what about the many many medical conditions people have (likely a LOT MORE PEOPLE) with stress, anxiety, emotional or psychological illness to whom the systems are actually doing HARM to?? Causing distress, tinnitus, and other health problems.
And those people who have medical cover for those wbo need protection.
I believe the figures for those people are higher in numbers than the numbers of blind or deaf people who use the bus.
And i challenge the bus company and council to do a survey without any bias at all...
To how many people have different conditions that are effected either way..
And let people fairly vote on the talking bus. Including the young people.
Its the fact its forced on us with no option. This is the problem.
Tne same way food advertisements are pushed on us... and we are negatively effected.
But more importantly where are they going with this technology??
If young children make noises on buses or be loud.. apparently we cannot shout at them. Anymore we aren't to say anything that upsets them.
Yet a car manufacturer can use a device desined to be emitting distasteful sounds, noises that we dont like. In fact designed to pain us to a degree that it is inflicting distress on us until we comply with a command.
And without a fair trial in a court we have had a punishment inflicted upon us. Designed to distress.
Yet the intent to cause distress is a criminal offence itself.
I believe that the talking bus is a power statement by the government. Its an authority gesture.. you are having this whether you like it or not. Even if it causes pain, upset, distress or even if you have a medical condition.
And this is where we are...
Doubledown news.. Russel Brand... Extinction Rebellion..
We try to meditate to get rid of the anxiety of life yet we are being subjected to more and more of this onslaught of bombardment of sounds and noises.
It cannot be right.
Its about governments tax, contracts, money, big Buisness and deals and a bigger plan to tie us in deeper to subjective control and cues... of machines and tech.
This is not what being human is supposed to be about.
We need to oppose these Bus companies and the Department of Transport..
The sinister organisation behind the speed cameras and illegal road signage that was planned and orgsnised against us...
The odds fixing. And ties between that department and the building department, builders... like Persimmon and links to Gambling.. Rodger Devlin.. William Hill..
Gambling..
We need to do something against this industry that is taking tne soul out of being human.
