The Pervert's Guide To Ideology - Slavoj Žižek on "They Live"

We often say you can't wake up someone who is pretending to sleep, and those asleep don't appreciate being woken up. The sunglasses scene above summarises this beautifully.

It refers to the underlying ideologies that drive our the pseudo reality most inhabit; fake money, fake food, fake relationships, fake egos, fake incorporated bodies pretending to be humans (corporations), fake brands, fake advertising, fake media, fake wars, fake journalism and so on and so forth. Who want's to really see that?

Some of us have no choice.

Slavoj Žižek does a nice explanation of this in the clip above using a cult movie I've blogged about called They Live by John Carpenter. I've also commented on its similarities with the Banksy Movie

Freedom Hurts, and nobody knows this more than the seasoned corruption and conspiracy researchers. The only people in my experience apart from the powerful who understand a little of what is going on. An unusual match I think you'll agree.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn' Speech At Harvard

Alexander Solzhenitsyn is well worth a listen. We in the West simply don't have a single political thinker or representative that talks about the moral vacuum at the heart of consumerism, controlled music, sports obsession and political mendacity parading as Statesmen. 

I've never heard anyone talk as hard core as this. Real conviction is so rare these days.

The Harvard crowd really gets it as well. They wouldn't today. It's all rooted in MBA's and crooked lawyers scooping up profits at the expense of social justice and equality of opportunity. 

Greed in other words.

The Best Enemies Money Can Buy - Wall Street Manipulation of Humanity Through Fake Wars & Fake Ideologues

It gets a harder and harder to ignore the hypothesis that mankind is a social experiment for the global oligarchy when we understand how contrived the wars and ideologies are. This is a classic interview by Professor Antony Sutton, who taught economics at California State University, and was a research fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution.

In this talk, Prof. Sutton delves into his impeccable research on how a close-knit group of Western financiers and industrialists (centred around Morgan and Rockefeller in the US, and around Milner and the City financiers, in the UK) created and sustained their three supposed enemies right from the very beginning: Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, and FDR's Fabian socialism.

Particularly, he goes into how Wall Street/City of London financiers used their banking institutions and their industrial enterprises to:

1. Help finance and sustain the Bolshevik Revolution. Build up Soviet industry during Lenin's Five-Year Plans, both through finance, technology/industrial transfers and technical assistance. Continue to build the Soviets throughout the entire Cold War, through the same kinds of deals. This included the Korea and the Vietnam eras, during which American troops were being killed by... Western-made Soviet equipment.

2. Build up Nazi Germany, both financially and industrially;

3. Get FDR into power in America as their man, and even draw up the New Deal policies, especially FDR's National Recovery Act -- designed by Gerard Swopes of General Electric and deeply welcomed by Wall Streeters Morgan, Warburg and Rockefeller.

Sutton was not a wild speculator. He was a distinguished academic researcher who documented his conclusions impeccably in his several works. Not being able to counter his research, the establishment (including academia) first tried to shut him up and now simply attempts to ignore it, and pretend it isn't there.

The purpose for these Wall Street policies was very simple: to create, and globalize, what Sutton calls Corporate Socialism. A system under which everything in society is ruled by the state, and the state is, in its stead, controlled by financiers who, hence, get to rule and manage society, to their liking. In other words, to get society to work for the financiers, using a socialist state as an intermediary.

This is what we now know as the globalization economic model. As a result of all the clashes of the 20th century, most notably WWII and the Cold War (fought between powers that were manipulated and controlled by these banker cliques), the world has been 'globalized'. Meaning that it has been entirely taken over by these financiers, and is ever closer to being completely ruled by them, through not only the national states and national central banking systems, but mainly through supranational agencies and institutions.

Go into Professor Sutton's books, most notably the Hoover Institute's series on Western technological/industrial transfers to the Soviets and the 'Wall Street' trilogy. If you have a difficulty in purchasing the original books, you'll find most of them are easily available online, on pdf form.

A Religious Cock Fight - Free Entry For Cocks & Fighters

Negative E.T. came to Earth and eventually became bored with stirring up wars over resources and revenge. After a few millenia of betting on which side would win they set up the Abrahamic faiths and placed a bet that would be settled two thousands years in the future. No longer interested in being on the winning side of brute force they wanted to know who would have the most seductive religion that the humans would give their their lives and souls for.

It wasn't hard to send down an angel to whisper words of unforgettable poetry into Mohammed's head that the illiterate but pious shepherd would remember while meditating in his cave. It was just as easy to send down the shadowy figure of Melchizidek and direct the Judaism that spawned Christianity. In fact it was so easy that when tweaking the game meant rule changes while the game was in play, the dopey monkey hardly raised a question and ploughed on with fighting for the E.T. seeded Gods, their one and only true God that promised the winner with the real estate spoils of Jerusalem, Mecca and Rome and a badge that said "I was right' and VIP tickets to heaven.

And so here we are with a self fulfilling prophecy and hints of advanced technology time travel tweaking. It looks like an axis of evil shit fight by the U.S. Israel and Saudi Arabia representing a triangulated face-off between the three Abrahamic faiths of Christianity, Judaism and Islam. The only way we can win is if we don't turn up for war on behalf of the planetary oligarch, their elite officials and E.T lieutenants in the shape of ancient bloodlines consistently represented at the highest levels of society over millennia.

It's a cock fight and they get off on it. 

Don't be a cock.

Culture & Ideology Are Not Your Friends

There are a number of shorter Terence McKenna clips condensing this theme but I don't think there's any substitution for listening to one of Terence's finest think pieces on the subject of culture and ideology, which just like nationalism, flag waving and patriotism are the most urgently needed legacies of the nation state era that we need to dispense with. 

I say it again. People who wave flags (metaphorically or literally) are dangerously misinformed. Those ideas belong to the 18th century and are part of the problem instead of a global solution we most urgently need.
