It can also be testing how far the fake reporting can be pushed. Heartwarming stories now. Dystopian mass control later.

I can't search google without it reporting "facts" from a Facebook post.

After requesting direct from NHK or Japan Times none could be found. share.google/aimode/4ogqr...
Google AI search "confirming" reporting from NHK Japan about benches but all sources are Facebook and Instagram. Japan is reportedly piloting solar-powered heated benches and bus shelters in cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Sapporo. These innovative public amenities are designed to provide warmth for unhoused people during cold winter nights. can you provide sources that do not rely on social media and report directly from NHK or Japan Times? Thinking Searching I cannot provide direct links to articles from the official NHK or Japan Times websites confirming this specific story, as the search results primarily point back to social media posts and third-party sites that mention those sources, rather than the original articles themselves. The social media posts that refer to NHK and The Japan Times indicate that these organizations may have covered the story as a pilot project involving solar-heated benches with phase-change materials developed by researchers at Kyoto University and JAIST (Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology). To find the primary source articles, you would need to visit the websites of NHK World-Japan or The Japan Times and use their internal search functions for terms like "heated benches," "solar benches," or "phase-change material."

We really could use a refresher like this for Authoritarian Regimes.
Editorial from Improvement Era August 1936 Warning to Church Members With great regret we learn from credible sources, governmental and others, that a few Church members are joining directly or indirectly, the Communists and are taking part in their ac- tivities. The Church does not interfere, and has no in- tention of trying to interfere, with the fullest and freest exercise of the political franchise of its mem- bers, under and within our Constitution which the Lord declared: "I established ... by the hands of wise men whom I raised up unto this very pur- pose," and which, as to the principles thereof, the Prophet, dedicating the Kirtland Temple, prayed should be "established forever." But Communism is not a political party nor a political plan under the Constitution; it is a system of government that is the opposite of our Consti- tutional government, and it would be necessary to destroy our government before Communism could be set up in the United States. Since Communism, established, would destroy our American Constitutional government, to sup- port Communism is treasonable to our free insti- tutions, and no patriotic American citizen may be- come either a Communist or supporter of Com- munism. To our Church members we say: Communism is not the United Order, and bears only the most superficial resemblance thereto; Communism is based upon intolerance and force, the United Or- der upon love and freedom of conscience and ac- tion; Communism involves forceful despoliation and confiscation, the United Order voluntary con- secration and sacrifice. Communists cannot establish the United Order, nor will Communism bring it about. The United Order will be established by the Lord in His own due time and in accordance with the regular pre- scribed order of the Church. Furthermore, it is charged by universal report, which is not successfully contradicted or disprov- ed, that Communism undertakes to control, if not indeed to proscribe the religious life of the people living within its jurisdiction, and that it even reaches its hand into the sanctity of the family circle itself, disrupting the normal relationship of parent and child, all in a manner unknown and unsanctioned under the Constitutional guarantees under which we in America live. Such interference would be contrary to the fundamental precepts of the Gos- pel and to the teachings and order of the Church. Communism being thus hostile to loyal Ameri- can citizenship and incompatible with true Church membership, of necessity no loyal American citi- zen and no faithful Church member can be a Com- munist. We call upon all Church members completely to eschew Communism. The safety of our divine- ly inspired Constitutional government and the wel- fare of our Church imperatively demand that Com- munism shall have no place in America. Heber J. Grant J. Ruben Clark David O. McKay The First Presidency. -- The Use of Gospel Standards Profoundly important to the Church and to the world are the two messages recently issued by the First Presidency of the Church: the one de- signed to take Church members off public relief rolls; the other ( above printed ) a warning against insidious propaganda for lawless government. By these documents the Church is again making his- tory; is again giving evidence of the presence and power of divine inspiration. Overwhelmed and bewildered by the material gifts of the age, men question the sufficiency of the ancient moral code. In their confusion, clear think- ing is vanishing, though some things should be evident enough: the automobile cannot abrogate the command "Thou shalt not steal," nor can the radio still the voice of conscience. Latter-day Saints should find no difficulty in distinguishing between truth and error, right and wrong, even under our changing physical life, in the midst of the flood of new knowledge and in- vention. The Gospel is a guide to conduct, a chart (continued) for life's voyage, a set of ideals by which every proposition may be measured. Latter-day Saints should test every new offering by Gospel stand- ards. That is one of the high opportunities within the Church of Jesus Christ. For example, the right of free agency is funda- mental in the Gospel structure. Man should al- ways be left free to accept or to reject. There should be no interference with the human will. If, under the eternal law, man chooses right, he is rewarded; if he chooses unwisely, he brings pun- ishment upon himself. This doctrine was fought for and established in the Great Council held in the heavens before the earth was made. This principle may be used in evaluating the merit of many social, economic, and political offer- ings of the day. Communism, Fascism, and Nazi- ism may be judged by this principle—whatever endangers to the least degree man's right to act for himself is not of God and must be resisted by Latter-day Saints. The deep meaning of a con- stitutional form of government is that those who live under it shall determine its laws and policies, and, then, knowing the consequences, be left free to obey or disobey the law. It is this doctrine of man's right to freedom that runs through the mes- sage above published. The principle of free agency leads directly to an equally useful, derivative principle. The Lord, who conceived the plan of salvation for man's good, does not compel men to accept it. It is taught to mankind here and will be taught to them hereafter; it may be accepted or rejected. Thus, man climbs, with God's help, but by his own effort, up the road to eternal joy. This firm expression of self-help should be the warp to the woof of man's every act. When economic distress comes, the ways and means of self-help should be given first considera- tion. Each man must do all he can to help himself out of the difficult situation in which he finds him- self. When this is done, the group to which he belongs may ask itself if further opportunity for the man's self-help should be provided. Such self- help, first by the individual, then by the immediate group, moving hesitantly beyond the individual and his circle for further help, is the opposite, the negative, of charity. According to the Gospel standard, it is by self-help, material and spiritual, that man rises toward his divine majesty. To this ideal, the Church is rallying its members in its social security program. Every present-day offering and our every de- cision, must be tested by Gospel standards. That is the urgent need of the day.—J. A. W. -- Comment on Commumsm THE foregoing statement on Communism by the First Presidency of the Church has been re- ceived thankfully and with fervent approval, both within and without the Church, by Americans who love America. Typical of the resultant reactions is an editorial which appeared July 8, 1936, in the Salt Lake Tribune, a newspaper published by in- terests not of our Church. At the suggestion of President Heber J. Grant, The Improvement Era's Editor-in-Chief, the editorial referred to is here reproduced in full: "Enemies Within Our Gates" "There is both reason and logic in the recent pronounce- ment of the Mormon Church against communism. The state- ment is more than a religious document because it warns of a menace that drives at the very foundations of American life. Communism has nothing in common with the Mormon Church or any other, this government or any other, this people or any other. It is an enemy to religion, to freedom, and to civilization. "The warning of the First Presidency is timely and to the point. It distinguishes between communistic enterprise and free political discussion within the bounds of the Constitution. It recites forcibly that communism is not freedom but serf- dom, not the exponent of new political rights for the people, but the enemy of existing governmental guarantees to them. "The statement says: " 'Communism is not a political party nor a political plan under the Constitution; it is a system of government that is the opposite of our Constitutional government, and it would be necessary to destroy our Constitution before communism could be set up in the United States. Since communism, established, would destroy our American constitutional gov- ernment, to support communism is treasonable.' "Communistic preachment, first of all, is a means to an end. It is an essential step in the overthrow of established govern- ment. Once the people are disarmed there is no turning back. They become slaves under a rule of force, which tolerates no interference or resistance, be it peaceful or violent. Russia is the outstanding example of an enslaved people. The roseate promises held out to accomplish the revolution are forgotten, the fanciful ideals are repudiated and the rule of a designing leadership is made absolute. "Established communism endures no criticism of its course. Such activities as the Mormon Church warns against would be punishable as treason in Russia. Only the other day, Joseph Stalin declared that the Soviet Union will avoid any electoral system under which any party could defeat the government and take its place. Why should the American people be more tolerant of the enemies within their gates? Why should they hold out the guarantees of Constitutional government to men and women who seek to destroy them? Why should not allegiance or subscription to principles con- ceived and designed to destroy the Constitution be sternly punished? "We do not abandon our homes to the burglars. No more should we tolerate the activities of those who seek to destroy the foundations of our homes and our civilization, Consti- tutional government. Spies and traitors to the trust of our government are handled without gloves. Why should any more consideration be shown those who would destroy the government itself?"

Image of former KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov and a quote from him: "The highest art of warfare is not to fight at all, but to subvert anything of value in the country of your enemy until such time that the perception of reality of your enemy is screwed up to such an extent that he does not perceive you as an enemy. ... [Y]ou can take your enemy without a single shot being fired."

Excerpt from William G. Young Finding from 09/30/2025: Can you imagine a masked marine? It is a matter of honor -- and honor still matters. To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police. Carrying on in this fashion, ICE brings indelible obloquy to this administration and everyone who works in it. "We can not escape history," Lincoln rightly said. "[It] will light us down in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation." Abraham Lincoln, Second Annual Message to Congress (Dec. 1, 1862).
