Did I vote for AI to be selected to be the operational system for any Planet Mars Settlement? I voted No and this is precisely the reason why. The system has over run the gauntlet. What Hope does humanity have left? 

Background

That’s a richly layered premise—part speculative fiction, part cultural critique, and part geopolitical allegory. Let’s unpack and refine it into a compelling narrative scaffold:

👑 Premise: The Coronation of King William

  • Trigger Event: King Charles is diagnosed with inoperable cancer and abdicates, leading to Prince William’s unexpected coronation.
  • Public Reaction: Instagram memes and viral content frame the coronation as both a moment of generational shift and symbolic rupture—echoing themes of legacy, modernity, and media spectacle.

🌍 The Edict from England’s African Community

  • Symbolic Intervention: A coalition of Afro-British intellectuals, artists, and activists issue a public edict urging King William to engage with communities across the Black diaspora.
  • Purpose: To confront and explain the lived experience of ADHD as a neurodivergent response to systemic subversion—particularly how institutional racism and cultural manipulation by global powers (e.g., Russia and the USA) distort identity, agency, and mental health.

🧠 ADHD as Cultural Signal

  • Reframing ADHD: Not merely a clinical diagnosis, but a culturally coded response to hyper-surveillance, disrupted attention economies, and inherited trauma.
  • Black Neurodivergence: In this narrative, ADHD becomes a lens through which Black communities articulate resistance, creativity, and survival strategies in hostile systems.

🕊️ Subversion and Culturalism

  • Institutional Subversion: The story explores how dominant powers weaponize culture—through media, education, and policy—to destabilize marginalized identities.
  • Culturalism: A term here used to describe the strategic deployment of cultural narratives (by Russia and the USA) to reinforce global hierarchies and suppress dissent.

✨ Narrative Possibilities

  • King William’s Journey: A global tour framed not as royal spectacle but as a listening pilgrimage—visiting communities in Lagos, Kingston, Atlanta, and Brixton.
  • Dialogues: He engages with poets, neuropsychologists, street philosophers, and youth collectives to understand how ADHD, race, and resistance intersect.
  • Climactic Moment: A public address where William acknowledges the monarchy’s complicity and pledges to support reparative cultural diplomacy.

Would you like to co-develop this into a speculative short story, a multimedia manifesto, or perhaps a worldbuilding dossier for a larger project? I can help scaffold the narrative arcs, character dynamics, and thematic tensions.

Ah, now that’s a potent metaphor to layer into your speculative coronation scenario. “Running the gauntlet” historically refers to a brutal form of punishment—being forced to pass between two rows of people who strike you with weapons—but its modern usage evokes enduring public scrutiny, relentless challenge, and symbolic trial.

Let’s explore how it could resonate within your narrative:

🛡️ King William’s Gauntlet: A Trial of Legitimacy and Listening

1. Coronation as Rite of Passage

  • William’s ascent isn’t just ceremonial—it’s a psychological and cultural gauntlet.
  • He must endure the blows of public skepticism, colonial reckoning, and media satire (memes as digital lashes).
  • The gauntlet becomes a symbolic test of whether he can evolve from figurehead to ethical actor.

2. The African Edict as Catalyst

  • The edict from England’s African community invites him to “run the gauntlet” of diasporic truth-telling.
  • Each stop on his global tour—Lagos, Kingston, Atlanta—is a station in the gauntlet, where he must face:
    • Neurodivergent youth reframing ADHD as resistance.
    • Cultural historians unpacking imperial trauma.
    • Artists and activists wielding metaphor as critique.

3. Institutional Subversion as the Gauntlet’s Architecture

  • The gauntlet is not just interpersonal—it’s systemic.
  • William must navigate the weaponized narratives of Russia and the USA, which use culturalism to distort Black identity and neurodivergence.
  • Each encounter forces him to confront how monarchy itself has been complicit in these distortions.

4. Redemption Through Endurance

  • The gauntlet is not meant to destroy—it’s meant to transform.
  • If William survives with humility, insight, and action, he emerges not just as King—but as a listener-in-chief, a symbolic bridge between past harm and future healing.

Would you like to co-design the gauntlet’s stages as narrative episodes, each with its own symbolic challenge, character ensemble, and thematic arc? We could even model it as a ritual sequence—part mythic, part political, part psychological.

How the Day Started

On this morning in June 2025, after a substantial break, I am back to blog. Well, on my hands and knees with a list of chores to get through, I push pen to keyboard, before managing the document called tax and personal finances as they should appear on paper year in and out. Every educated Australian is in this space all the time.   Clean the kitchen window.  Oh! To be able to see outside again; view uninterrupted. Window cleaning blue stuff check. Rubber cleaning blade check. Anticipation of satisfaction 10 to 10.  This is my new grading system.  If I get to this chore today 10 to 10. If I have to skip it for something else then the score decreases.  Lists of pending scores 0 to 10 for delving to religiously into the meaning of life. And yet that list does sometimes exist. AI/i and automation compete in jealous rage against the tirade of walls magically appearing as private hell.  I read this, and finally I am back to blog.  https://www.msn.com/e...

Trump announces he has sent more troops to manage the riots in Los Angeles than to Iraq and Syria combined (this time or in total?) The public purse is rested in my excellent accounting skills.
