Arlington is a secret underground military base though. When Judgement Day comes a lot of pissed off Union soldiers are going to rise up out of Robert E. Lee's lawn and demand payback from a Confederate corrupted government.

Though, unlike revolutionary France, the executed will be lying face up so they can see the blade. (of course none of this is in the Bible so it was made up whole cloth by whoever told her this) That was probably 30 years ago and I still remember it vividly. The shocking and sensational details are included because they stick. I remember when my mother was going through a Baptist phase, I used to get Chick tracks to read because I thought they were ridiculous (they thought I was handing them out like a good Christian missionary; lol no). One of them was about revelations and had the guillotines you described, but they were on motorcycles driven by Judge Dredd antichrist police. Jack Chick could have made a fortune animating stuff for warhammer 40k; man knew his grimdark.

The Tunnel is a powerful symbol. It's the physical manifestation of the conspiracy itself - dark, hidden, underground; it connects seemingly isolated institutions and binds them into a whole. Who knows how many offshoots it has and where they lead? I had a roommate in college who, in between trying to get his dog high, would tell me about the secret Freemason tunnels running underneath Warrensburg, Missouri.

It was portrayed as the greatest high, magic hallucinogens and stimulant. Should have aired somewhere around 2016, I think? I know it sounds silly that this could have something to do with Pizzagate, but IRC the Satanic panic started due to Dungeons & Dragons which is just as dumb.

Uh this is creepy quote:Michelle Remembers is a 1980 book co-written by Canadian psychiatrist Lawrence Pazder and his psychiatric patient (and eventual wife) Michelle Smith.  The D&D aspect of Satanaic Panic came from a poor kid who had a lot of problems, including being gay in the 70s, tried to kill himself in the steam tunnels under his college. He told the private detective his parents hired to find him to tell them that he didn't try to kill himself because he was gay, but because D&D made him do it! With its magic, and spells and levitation!

I visited Comet Ping Pong twice this year to see what all the hubbub was about. You know why it had weird murals? It’s a hipster pizza place in an LGBT neighborhood. The bartender was a guy in short shorts with a backwards baseball cap. It’s literally people going into a gay part of town and freaking out that everything unusual must be a hidden sign. For the record, the food is actually pretty good and I recommend giving them your business if you’re in the area.

Pope Guilty posted:As Fred Clark explains, a lot of people would really like to believe it. (part 2) It's important to note that with Q specifically and current conspiracy culture more generally, it's not just that a lot of these people don't really believe the rumours they're spreading. It's also that they can't conceive of someone who genuinely would. This is why the MAGAbomber had to be a false flag attack. If you genuinely believe that someone is torturing and murdering thousands of children per year, trying to kill them with a mail bomb is honestly a completely rational and proportionate response. But the reaction from the Q crew isn't "yeah I see why he did that," it's "nobody could POSSIBLY have tried to do that."

So much of what's happening now reminds me of the Satanic Panic except it seems a lot worse, like the true believers aren't just going to boycott Ozzy concerts or listen to Led Zeppelin records backwards, they're going to end up shooting some people or blowing them up and feel good about the whole thing.

That is lots of stuff, like I think lots of people believe in hell and base some actions on that, but like, almost no one acts like hell is real real. Like even pretty extreme christians aren't REALLY acting like you'd act if hell was an actual place. I think people in general have different sets of "real" where some things are real and you are supposed to actually believe in them, but some things are real and you are supposed to act on them in practical terms. Like, it doesn't make any sense, but it's not just this, it seems like a thing humans do in general.

Pope Guilty posted:As Fred Clark explains, a lot of people would really like to believe it. (part 2) This part is really good: A few years ago there was a particularly horrifying kitten-burning incident involving a barbecue grill and, astonishingly, a video camera. That sordid episode took place far from the place where I work, yet the paper’s editorial board nonetheless felt compelled to editorialize on the subject. They were, happily, against it. Unambiguously so. It’s one of the very few instances I recall when that timidly Broderian bunch took an unambiguous stance without their habitual on-the-other-hand qualifications. I agreed with that stance, of course. Who doesn’t? But despite agreeing with the side they took, I couldn’t help but be amused by the editorial’s inordinately proud pose of courageous truth-telling. The lowest common denominator of minimal morality was being held up as though it were a prophetic example of speaking truth to power. That same posturing resurfaced in a big way earlier this year when the kitten-burners struck again, much closer to home. A group of disturbed and disturbing children doused a kitten with lighter fluid and set it on fire just a few miles from the paper’s offices. The paper covered the story, of course, and our readers ate it up. People loved that story. It became one of the most-read and most-e-mailed stories on our Web site. Online readers left dozens of comments and we got letters to the editor on the subject for months afterward. Those letters and comments were uniformly and universally opposed to kitten-burning. Opinon on that question was unanimous and vehement. But here was the weird part: Most of the commenters and letter-writers didn’t seem to notice that they were expressing a unanimous and noncontroversial sentiment. Their comments and letters were contentious and sort of aggressively defensive. Or maybe defensively aggressive. They were angry, and that anger didn’t seem to be directed only at the kitten-burners, but also at some larger group of others whom they imagined must condone this sort of thing. If you jumped into the comments thread and started reading at any random point in the middle, you’d get the impression that the comments immediately preceding must have offered a vigorous defense of kitten-burning. No such comments offering any such defense existed, and yet reader after reader seemed to be responding to or anticipating this phantom kitten-burning advocacy group. One came away from that comment thread with the unsurprising but reassuring sense that the good people reading the paper’s Web site did not approve of burning kittens alive. Kitten-burning, they all insisted, was just plain wrong. But one also came away from reading that thread with the sense that people seemed to think this ultra-minimal moral stance made them exceptional and exceptionally righteous. Like the earlier editorial writers, they seemed to think they were exhibiting courage by taking a bold position on a matter of great controversy. Whatever comfort might be gleaned from the reaffirmation that most people were right about this non-issue issue was overshadowed by the discomfiting realization that so many people also seemed to want or need most others to be wrong. The kitten-burners seem to fulfill some urgent need. They give us someone we can clearly and correctly say we’re better than. Their extravagant cruelty makes us feel better about ourselves because we know that we would never do what they have done. They thus function as signposts of depravity, reassuring the rest of us that we’re Not As Bad As them, and thus letting us tell ourselves that this is the same thing as us being good. Kitten-burners are particularly useful in this role because their atrocious behavior seems wholly alien and without any discernible motive that we might recognize in ourselves. We’re all at least dimly aware of our own potential capacity for the seven deadlies, so crimes motivated by lust, greed, gluttony, etc. — even when those crimes are particularly extreme — still contain the seed of something recognizable. People like Ken Lay or Hugh Hefner don’t work as signposts of depravity because we’re capable, on some level, of envying them for their greed and their hedonism. But we’re not the least bit jealous of the kitten-burners. Their cruelty seems both arbitrary and unrewarding, allowing us to condemn it without reservation. Again, I whole-heartedly agree that kitten-burning is really, really bad. But the leap from “that’s bad” to “I’m not that bad” is dangerous and corrosive. I like to call this Thornton Melon morality. Melon was the character played by Rodney Dangerfield in the movie Back to School, the wealthy owner of a chain of “Tall & Fat” clothing stores whose motto was “If you want to look thin, you hang out with fat people.” That approach — finding people we can compare-down to — might make us feel a little better about ourselves, but it doesn’t change who or what we really are.
