Why,
in October,
does a media outlet feature..
a millennia-old Andean death cult ritual
from an ancient civilization
dedicated to protector of
caves, lakes, and rivers as places of shelter
..that happened in February?
(if you haven't seen the former, it is worth watching)
2020: 2021:
"it is not too crazy to think"
You may witness someone trying to divert pleasant conversation into quagmire discussing 'Show X'—consider asking about parent companies/studio ownership, revenue streams, and the intent of the programming.
Many people you meet in life will have never stopped to think about this.
another video where progressive studios attempt to incite rage and anger
if you're a child and you see this, you will grow thinking all farmers owned slaves and this is simply not true
if you're an adult and you see this, you will realize this is infowar
"No, really, think about it - what is the moral of the movie?"
Produced by
Wendy Finerman
Steve Tisch
and
Steve Starkey-interesting career-produced almost every Zemeckis classic, ending with this bizarre doc on substance abuse
Netflix has been one of the highest propagators of woke revisionism in historical film.
A subject which can veer down many topics.. perhaps a most-egregious act of $NFLX's false-historical series is use of classical masterpieces (Beethoven's 5th, etc) as cheap muzak fillers.
"Once you start checking everything, it’s very hard to be very creative,” Cleese said. “If you’re worried about offending people and constantly thinking about that, you’re not going to be very creative.”
"The moment that the critical mind comes in, you stop being creative,”
EMF was formed in 1989. Less than two years later, they pulled off unimaginable success with their breakout debut single and subsequent 'infectious,' 'bubbly,' even ELECTRIFYING pop/dance track... one-hit wonder, "Unbelievable" - released a year before the GSM network launched

"there is little in the backgrounds or education of many current U.S. government officials that allow them to see these strategies and functions holistically as part of general political warfare and to fight this unique war,"

In 1991 children's classic, Beauty & The Beast, Monsieur D'Arque ("dark" ~ translated "of arc") runs an asylum and is obsessed with gold.
Is his character loosely based on another character/family across history who has served as asylum (Norwood) stewards for over a century?
🤔
Gaston is the best Disney character.
Regarding B&B, consider how they portray the villain:
-village alpha
-slonks eggs
-steps up to fight Grendel
-universally adored in town
-fit
-faithfully dedicated to gal he admired—despite temptation
-good fighter
-accomplished hunter
-man
A fine example of Replacement Algorithm Theory at work is the release of a film coinciding with (and directly portraying) a secret society a presidential-dynastic candidate joined is released in months preceding a major Presidential Election.
But it wasn't just the first episode
Mid-terms matter, too—and often set stage for future events, like sequels—especially when applicable to a candidate who may or may not want to [un]intentionally obfuscate the history of their own membership in the same Secret Society.
Once is happenstance,
Twice is coincidence..
Presidential Election Year
Especially when that same 2002 candidate is "tapped" to become the presidential candidate.
Trilogies are a great example of the theory at work, be it total coincidence or deeply planned collaborative effort.. who knows?

Skull and Bones + Naval Warfare

New videogame out this November!
Was Desantis in same [or similar] club mentioned above?
Remember, Replacement Algorithm Theory is [un]intended obfuscation/suppression by media, memes or other flooding of similar names.
"The definition of a hero in the Marvel-morality era is one who is reluctant, unsure of himself, and forced into action. It is a shell of what the hero archetype once was,"
@the_saxon_cross on what seems "off" about modern superheroes vs heroes of old.
"Name a Germanic/Nordic/WASP protagonist that isn't Arnold,"
Great stumper to ask when you and friends are discussing media.. one even suggested Casper van Diem a la Starship Troopers, who was actually cast due to Verhoeven's ulterior motives (discussed above in thread)
The entire basis of the modern "superhero" is that some quasi-pharmaceutical serum or medical treatment/experiment boosts the weak into something strong.
Reading about SE Asian drug trade (as one does), I found it of note that 70% of opium (and synthetic drug) originates in what the CIA dubbed "The Golden Triangle"
In the film Golden Circle, "Poppy" is cannibalistic CEO of drug syndicate bent on pharmaceutical extortion of users.
Disambiguating Golden Circle:
Secret society of Southern Expansion w/notorious members. KGC made conquests to Central/America to make 'circle' of plantations; RL Club Tropical Excellent.🌴
This movement gained global momentum, with support from Northerners & even Queen Victoria.
Film about black power activist extorting a teenager for uninsured vehicle damage; casts yet another #aryanantagonist, even going so far at naming him traditional German name, Kurt.
Film debut of pornstar Carmen Electra.
Kids movie, via Nickelodeon🟠

Entirety of show "Scrubs" is loosely based on the plot of driven and well-to-do/successful men (doctors, in this case) being afraid of women, and perpetually friend-zoned. Reinforces the 'loveable loser' stereotype.
"Friends" is effectively the same thing in a different setting.
Hoffman changes name to infiltrate target demographic and corrupt.
Many such cases.
Hollywood man put on cowboy hat, use media network to gain prominence, reinforces stereotype of vulgarity and stupidity in Southern men.
Some call it "chart-forging," others, "modern minstrels,"
"It cuts the fat out of the system, leaving nothing but bone, muscle, and sinew. For some businesses, like hardware stores, perhaps a fatless system is barely noticeable. But for steaks and TV shows, the marbling is what it’s all about. Hence the state of streaming TV,"
When there's no enemies,
I sit and stare at my T.V.
With my credit and my bank,
My mind will draw a blank.
I'll block out history,
And stare at my T.V.
Heard this song when I was 13 and never looked at a TV the same again. Poignant and even more relevant to modern media.
Epic Beard Man's Replacement Theory Revisionism

Rare footage of J.D. "Joker" Vance and fellow recruits at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island receiving their Military Occupational Specialities.
All "joking" aside (this is scene from Full Metal Jacket), here is a thread of some real photos @JDVance1 took in the Corps.
🧵
Vance was, like Joker, a Combat Correspondent... leaving a legacy of images covering the life and times of the 2nd Marine Air Wing, a few images he shot and many articles he wrote are still available online.
I have selected a few to share with you here, along with their stories.
Lieutenant Col. David Lancaster, a Houston native and executive officer of Marine Attack Squadron 223, poses in front of an AV-8B Harrier from his squadron, Jan. 1, at Al Asad, Iraq. Lancaster recently logged his 2,000th flight hour in the Harrier.

King's Point, US Merchant Marine Academy, 1979—a group of midshipmen sat through a Naval Research demo of a new state-of-the-art $50MM ship's bridge pilot simulator, groundbreaking technology for 1979.
Jordan Weisman and L. Ross Babcock sat through the demo, and saw opportunity.
"Well, shit, that's the future of entertainment right there,"
Weisman dropped out, hardwired two Apples together and tried to build his own simulator; a starship..
He fried his computers, got no funding, and failed.
From there, Weisman switched gears to make a Tabletop RPG...
A story that changed my life, never gets old to revisit, and should be standard reading for every man, young and old.
Take five minutes and read this, you will not regret it.
IRON AND THE SOUL
by Henry Rollins
🧵
I believe that the definition of definition is reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself.
Completely.
When I was young I had no sense of myself. All I was, was a product of all the fear and humiliation I suffered. Fear of my parents. The humiliation of teachers calling me “garbage can” and telling me I’d be mowing lawns for a living. And the very real terror of my fellow students. I was threatened and beaten up for the color of my skin and my size. I was skinny and clumsy, and when others would tease me I didn’t run home crying, wondering why.
I knew all too well. I was there to be antagonized. In sports I was laughed at. A spaz. I was pretty good at boxing but only because the rage that filled my every waking moment made me wild and unpredictable. I fought with some strange fury. The other boys thought I was crazy.

The transporting, storing, and rebuilding of the Temple of Dendur, blockbuster tactics, an architectural megafirm, and dirty money.
A brief 🧵 on temple logistics.
The previous installment of this series on Dendur explored the lobbying efforts of the world to save ancient Egyptian monuments, the gift of one of them to America, and the peculiar connections of it all to Jackie-O (QT).
This is a brief description of its Transatlantic voyage.
Six years after it was dismantled, and immediately following it’s award to the Met, Met Curator, Henry George Fischer traveled to Egypt to oversee the packing and shipping of the temple’s blocks, of which there were 661.
These blocks were packed into some 642 crates for transit.

Previously we discussed damming of Nile at Aswan; not only a modern marvel of engineering but also a humanitarian crisis, due to large amounts of villages, antiquities, ruins, and cultural resources that would be lost underwater forever.
