Propaganda and the Mind

You out there reading this blog, if indeed anyone is, you're the real thing.

You are the living breathing embodiment or the human condition.


That was 41 years ago. Everything in the film industry has gone downhill. Less interesting, less meat on the bones, dumber language, simpler plots, less aspiration.

Shit, basically shit.

We are living in a dark age, the dark age has come. It has come, we are living in it. There is no point in lamenting the eventual decline, we are amidst it.

The only hope is that humanity has accelerated such that the dark ages instead of lasting hundreds of years, may only last a couple of decades.

The idea is that with the ever increasing advanced of technology, everything else would advance at a corresponding increasing rate.

In other words, the recent events of Trump, Brexit and the meltdown of the mainstream media (which Beale laments above) is happening faster than anyone could have imagined.

And Bitcoin is surging, I blinked and it went for 3K to 6K, and it could be 20 K by next year.

And fiat currency, well its as stagnant as ever.

Things are moving fast, real fast. Its gotten to the point that we could potentially anticipate all of mainstream media being totally replaced by independent media within the next 5-10 years. A complete reversal from the early 90's when big conglomerates bought up every news and radio station in the world.

I'm reminded of a quote from Princess Leia in star wars, the more you tighten your fist, the more systems will slip through your fingers.

The powers that be are losing the information war, ,they can no longer peddle their truth as they once did. Once the consequences of this hits their wallets or their desires to manipulate world events enough, they will hit back, with what I wonder...
