I think ive stumbled upon something utterly bizarre. 🧵
Phoenix Arizona is a weird place. Reports of UFOs and other strange phenomena are abundant. The most famous of which were the 1997 Phoenix lights.
Phoenix lays on the 33rd parallel. The 33rd parallel is infamous for being a hot bed of weirdness, and the supposed location of countless occult rituals. Think Kennedy assassination blah blah blah
Most of you are probably aware of the famous statue of Giordano Bruno in Rome. What almost none of you probably know is its origins, and by learning its origins you can get a better picture of his place in history. The statue is explicitely Masonic. 🧵
The average tourist or local who passes by the statue in Campo de Fiori, would probably assume its dedicated to “science” or “free thought” or some other meaningless modern platitude. This would be understandable, as pop culture has tried to frame him as a martyr of science.
This could not be further from the truth. Bruno wasn’t a modern man. He was a man of the far past. A student of hermeticism. He had more in common with an adept of an Egyptian mystery school than he did with a modern scientist.
if the 19th century Italian knew of the bizarre anti christian rites performed by Mazzini and many of the other architects of the Risorgimento (Italian unification), he would have fought viciously against such a project.
And yet as these things come to light in the 21st century, the Italian looks at the rites of the Carbonari with mild fascination, a passing curiosity. the ultimate sign of Mazzini's victory.
if one wishes to see the origins of the modern Italian state, they must simply go into the country side and find an old tree stump. The history of modern Italy was founded upon such baracca
Every day it seems that things are becoming more clear to me. Everything ive researched for the last year is oddly just now coming together. Ive only now realized why im the only one on the internet who has made these connections. Time for an important 🧵
The symbolic epicenter of all the weirdness, is a street in the heart of Rome, via del Corso. A topographical microcosm. Ive been sitting on explaining a lot of it for a while, because I wanted to have it all consolidated into a single document before releasing any of it
But lately through substack articles and threads Ive unintentionally introduced you to it in a piecemeal way, so I might as well continue to do so. As always, none of this will make sense unless you’ve read my stuff. open.substack.com/pub/popehead/p…
