Who is Doctor Steel?
Allow me to introduce you to Doctor Phineas Waldolf Steel. On the surface, Doctor Steel appears to be a humble mad scientist bent on world domination. However, upon scratching that surface, what lies underneath reveals his true genius. Though sufficiently and somewhat clinically described in Wikipedia and other media sources, the only way to truly understand Doctor Steel is to let him speak for himself, and you really should listen to him.
I’m in… However, despite my clear and obvious motivations, I would like to continue discussing what makes Doctor Steel such an interesting individual.
Doctor Steel communicates his ideology to the masses by entertaining them through various media such as music, shows, and live performances. His ideology is simple and pure. He wants to make the world a better place. A place where everyone can have fun free from fear, oppression, and other negative worldly concerns. A place he calls a “Utopian Playland”. To do this, he needs our help. Help, and some money. Part of his plan to cure the world of its ills is to enlist the aid of about 12-million robots armed with lasers and flying saucers. And why not? Everybody likes robots (except Geekologie Writer)
I’ve listened to his music, and it’s quite good. I’ve watched the shows, and they’re very entertaining. I’ve seen the pictures, and I’m impressed. I’ve absorbed the propaganda, and I believe. The man has put in a considerable amount of work into his website, media, and toy store; all indications that he’s sincere, and that he cares about our happiness.
But I say “the man”, and I have to wonder. While listening to his voice as he spoke about human and machine evolution, the collective consciousness of the Internet, I noticed something. It seems I’ve heard that pattern of speech before. It’s controlled, perfect, rhythmic, free of contractions or mistakes. The way he talked about Vision, Reality, and Robots. And then it hit me, he sounded very much like Agent Smith from the Matrix. Both Smith and Steel like to cover their eyes; in fact, Steel has never been seen without his dark goggles. He says “Ah, but there is a reason that I wear the glasses of a blind man, for I have shut my eyes to the ugly sight of what the world has imposed upon me, and have opened them to the world that I can create.”
Perhaps Doctor Steel is a machine. It doesn’t matter to me because I’m not a racist. I fully support Doctor Steel in his quest for world domination, and I encourage everyone to join his cause.
