it looks like yet another direct to Syfy sequel, but one that at least understands The Deal with the original

are the sequels at all conscious satire of fascism, or did they miss the point of the original and actually celebrate fascism

the episode they did on St. Louis is mostly about the Veiled Prophet Society. It was a secret society founded in 1878 by the political and business elite of the city to intimidate workers after massive strike the year before that included Black and white workers. Today it's mostly about the city elite networking and hosts a parade and ball every year. Ellie Kemper is from a prominent St. Louis family that's a member of the group.



This is just a random year, but shows the disguised veiled prophet with a different Queen of Peace and Beaty. The prophet is a different important St. Louis ghoul every year. The only known prophet in the past 50 years is Monsanto CEO who had his veil ripped off by activists in the 1970s.


First image of the veiled prophet in St. Louis, from a 1878 newspaper advertisement. Literally a Klansman.


The ep is good, they interview a St. Louis native who explains the historical and political context in more detail.

huh. I never actually knew the backstory, I just associated it with the kickass Arch fireworks

TrueAnon is great, it's actually an actress and a CIA plant pretending to be crazy people with fantastic production values. Just imo but avoid episodes where they talk about technology though, which can be summed up as "ok so like I don't know how any of this works or what it means but be careful pepuhl!"

I'd hesitate to call the second one a satire of fascism, it largely ignores the societal context of the conflict in order to focus more on a group people trapped in a building with a body snatcher bug, but the ending does illustrate how easily people's actual existence and history is ignored in order to slot them into the state's narrative.

It's been like 10 years since I saw it though so there may be more there that I missed/don't remember.

I was listening to the Biden episode of E1 podcast from a while back, and it's some of the funniest poo poo I've ever heard. Felix is a genius at Biden impersonation. It's like he can just put himself in that headspace and keep going indefinitely.

Eastern Europe Episode IV: A New Hope. I love President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. I understand and appreciate the precarious position the Ukrainians are navigating. I wish I could set up a 401(UA) fund from my paycheck to directly contribute my earnings to Ukraine's success.

Trueanon is good. Some of their non-Epstein related episodes are pretty good.
