The Sovereign Mind Act: Washington Mandates the Great Neural Exit

WASHINGTON D.C. — Today, the United States government has taken a step that many fear marks the end of its participation in the human future. With the passage of the "Sovereign Mind Act," President Julian Vane has mandated the immediate, surgical removal of Aether-Link implants for all federal employees, contractors, and their dependents. This "Neural-Exit" is the most aggressive enforcement of the Vane Doctrine to date, effectively lobotomizing the American government from the collective intelligence of the global community.

The administration claims the mandate is a "national security imperative" following the recent CSU cyber-breaches, but the reality is a direct assault on the cognitive liberty of thousands of citizens. "Vane is forcing a physical disconnection on an entire class of workers," says Maya Lin. "By criminalizing the Aether-Link within the federal government, he is ensuring that the architects of the 'Great Restoration' remain isolated from the data-streams that define modern reality. It is isolationism at the synaptic level."

While the "Restoration" party celebrates the act as a defense of "mental sovereignty," the liberal world should recognize it as a tragic retreat. The Aether-Link was designed to expand our potential, to integrate us into a unified global consciousness. By mandating its removal, Washington is choosing to return to the analogue dark-ages. As the first clinics open today to perform the removals, we must ask: how much further can Vane pull the plug on progress before the nation itself goes dark?
