Propaganda (2012)
Normalized Insanity
I am a transistorized, transgenderized, transmogrified, trans-human
A corporatized, commercialized, industrial strength consumer
A goal setting, gym sweating, debt fretting freak
A social climbing net worker that's always on heat
I got my education majoring in indoctrination
Where they taught me to comply, to never question why
And so I'm chasing an illusion of success that's a delusion
That's sending me insane, exploding my brain
And as we teeter on the brink, soon to be extinct
I always wear a smile, coz I'm living in denial.
Midway (2019)
Pure propaganda at its most infatile, distorting history and the drive to war.
The cinema is the primary and most effective tool used to propagate propaganda.
The majority of westerners believe WW2 was a battle for freedom by the west against the rise of European fascism and Japanese imperialism that is absolute bollocks. WW1, 2 and the wars in the Middle East today are all geopolitical struggles by the major powers to control the resources of the planet (especially of resource rich the third world that is a product of brutal western exploitation to this very day) No industrialized nation has the resources to feed its industry, and they subdue and pauperize the weaker nations, stealing their resources and forcing its populations into sweatshops. Western living standards depend on the the misery of millions as expendable cheap labor.
The Battle Britain is one of the most vile distortions of reality as Nazi Germany that virtually had no colonies was after some of Britain's vast imperial empire gained by the subjugation and genocidal enslavement of 100's of millions of people. As late as the 1950's the British murdered 1.5 million Kenyan tribesman who wanted the British out of their country.
All nation states are cults that utilize exceptionalism to tap into peoples pride ad self esteem who are willing to believe beautiful lies at the expense of the horrible truth
The USA wanted in the war, and put an illegal trade embargo on Japan, considered an act of war by the league of nations, in order to antagonize and provoke a response. No one ever asks why Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, while the answer is to sink the ships enforcing the embargo. The US had multiple warnings of an imminent attack, and did nothing to stop it
All war is murder, there are no heroes fighting for our freedom just gullible cannon fodder that pay with their lives.
Damnation (2017)
More surprised it made it TV, than it was cancelled.
The series depicts the very real brutal poverty, exploitation, coersion, violence and murder that US workers faced prior to the sit down strikes and the outbreak of revolutions across Europe in the Thirties, The fear of social unrest was the reason Roosevelt introduced the New Deal.
McCarthyism and the destruction and vilification of the left in the USA, is the reason the bankers can rob treasury and fund genocidal wars with zero opposition
There is an excellent 5 part (6hr) documentary at Metatonia films that covers this period exstensively.
