Alan Turing died alone and depressed even though he changed the world for good. He was demolished as a human and deemed a criminal even with advocates as strong as Winston Churchill. Even the USA where he worked too believed
and others still do that good people can be gay.

In many schools across the world we are never taught about the defamation of his character and what it did to a quiet, gentle person. He is remembered now as a genius and a hero across the world despite governments still considering sexuality a crime.

Despite the apple or anything else being inspected his death was determined as suicide by cyanide poisoning. He had also been exposed to poisons working in laboratories. Decades passed for the 'crime" to be repealed. The 50 pound note was printed with his image to honor his life.

Britain considered then homosexuality to be a crime. Alan Turing went to jail. There he became despondent and depressed. Not long afterward he experienced defamation of his character. Then he was found dead in his bed. There was a half-eaten apple left upon his bedside table.

A man he met and with whom he was walking alongside the water were confronted by police. It turned out that the man he met was a burglar. Police arrested and the burglar and Turing both. In his interrogation with the police Alan Turing answered honestly that he was a homosexual.

Came through his interest in cryptography when the enigma machine decrypted cryptographic codes made for vby the Nazis in World War II. It's believed approximately from 45 to 50 million people died in that War and that through his work saved at least 21 million more.

It's Pride month so I've had a thought to honor people as I can who have contributed so much to this world often without recognition. This is Alan Turing, many readers will know his name but may not know his story. He's often described as the father of modern computer science.

And here we go again and again it's never going to stop until the next species washes it away but I'm just not convinced that's ever going to happen it's just going on and on and it's always been this way.

I'm really confused because I thought I had been taught about this place that encouraged freedom of expression. It went on to suggest a church and beliefs would be the choice of individuals and never an imposition? Do you think this special place was a dream or just imagination?

Absolutely Joe. And we all have cognitive biases and I do it myself I think we need more awareness and how biases can turn into prejudice and hate. What 🧒 do described is confirmation bias. I caught myself doing it today writing. Stopped myself when I but it wasn't very easy.

Social networks promote binary arguments rather than critical thinking. I think it is critical thought we've lost in the socratic sense. Where is discourse or acceptance of a different way of being ? one can only be at the top can be defined quite well as stinking thinking. 😏

A professor is not necessarily a teacher and only a great teacher knows that he or she or they leave with more learning then the students did that day. 😜
I absolutely agree! I believe it startled me it was the third time I heard more than a few sentences and after that did not expose myself I'd move along but I was sleeping this time when I woke up and there it was I needed a reality check and oh did I get it thank you so much!
I'm looking away I shall not click don't worry about it it happens on social media all the time. Whatever is in that post cannot trauma me more than that moment I woke up and heard his voice today I think I'm traumatized for life because of what was saying
