So, my buddy believes there's footage of Neil Armstrong et al landing on the moon and there's buildings and Armstrong is heard saying "What the gently caress!?" and NASA says something in the vein of "We know, just ignore it." It was of course scrubbed before I could see/hear it, as it ever was.

Does ANYONE in this thread have any tangential familiarity with what in creation he's talking about? Or for bonus points, the Black Knight Satellite, a city-sized hulk that hung around one of our poles for the longest time until like sometime last year, I guess?

wouldn’t he see the buildings before he landed and/or nasa would prob brief him on the buildings before he gets shocked by seeing them while on an important mission?

Do not trust in hope- it will betray you! Only faith and hatred sustain.

"A Colder War" by Charles Stross is an excellent homage to Lovecraft that drops the racism in favor of Iran-Contra

yo if we're riding high on this wave can someone explain the cthulu/yellow king/carcosa mythos simply or am i gonna have to actually read these nerd rear end books

In the outer layer of this simulation we came from war-torn Malaysia (Hades) and energy weapons are sometimes fired by forces at Singapore (Elysium and Asphodel) which is protected by a forcefield but inhabitants are still prone to electromagnetic damage. We crossed the Johore Strait (The Lake of Hali) as refugees to Singapore and we have to earn our citizenship at The ION Orchard, which exists on this level but is yet to be built into the Tower of Babel. Carcosa is that they will do this over and over again. The Orchard aka The Garden of Eden right now is a Mega Mall connected to an underground mass-rapid transit system linked to a series of underground air raid shelters being built for the upcoming war. They sound the klaxons when the energy weapons go off and everyone runs to the shelters.

Look up Mall World Dreams. You've been there in your dreams. That's the Orchard you go to in Asphodel. It's an infinitely tall building interconnected inside through amazing dimensions like an impossible maze where you start the first few hours of your dreams processing the simulation but after you sleep 10 or more hours you get a smoke break to walk around outside, or in Mall World itself, or School World or the Hall of Tasks where you can see the leaderboards of every achievement ever. I've seen the infinite expanding halls with wall dividers that you zoom down to the end of where you see the hologram of each person carrying out their role and the board at the end lists out the top gamers. Walked past no. 42 of who can eat the most burritos in one go, the fastest knitters, Marilyn Monroe lookalikes. I kept staring at no.1 and no.2 Marilyn and they looked exactly the same and I said this is bullshit.

There's so many compartments to mall world which make up your dreams. I have to wonder why we got sent to the pedo elite world.

I think you have to rack up some sick achievements otherwise you have to keep restarting over and over again until you get to go to Elysium

actually that’s not true because everyone itt absolutely should read the best work of historical fiction of the latter 20th century which is Alan Moore’s From Hell. Reading O’Neills Chaos is giving me big architecture of history vibes.

I just started Tales from the Parapolitical yesterday, but Roy Cohn is a big connection from intelligence to mafia. Went from being primary counsel for the McCarthy commie hunt (behind big support from FBI's Hoover) to legally counseling the Five Families of NY and is now mentor and lawyer to Trump. Cohn himself was mentored by Meyer Lansky.

And if you want to hit the trio of Cohn, Trump, and Lanksy, plus a whole megaton of intelligence and some of the richest families in the world, you can check out Resorts International in the Bahamas. The book's coolest connection there is to mention that a member of the Mellon family, fresh on financing Timothy Leary's LSD experiment and then the Brotherhood of Eternal Love (who have been estimated to have distributed up to half of the 60s LSD and hashish in the USA), flies down to the Bahamas to find someone to launder LSD money and then drops 5 milly invested into Resorts. If you don't stumble on Trump naturally, check out who bought a controlling stake in 1987.

e: if the intelligence connection ain't that big check out Intertel, the private company that ran security and who founded it and I think almost every single person hired within

Roy Cohn is probably the most fascinating figure of his era and there's a great documentary out there about the life and career of Cohn

here's a trailer:

https://www.sonyclassics.com/wheresmyroycohn/


e: you know how when Roger Stone and Trump start going and denying everything, pushing blame on others, attacking those who accused them etc, they're just doing a Roy Cohn impersonation and if you watch Jeffrey Epstein on the stand, he's clearly doing a Cohn impersonation too.

Likudnik types tend to want to encourage that, as they see it as a way of forcing wayward non-zionists into the fold, and making them come to Israel.

What does it mean that a spook "believes" in the protocols of the elders of zion? It means nothing, other than that they are sociopaths and will latch onto and promote anything if it advances their material interests, such as the promotion of antisemitism in Europe.

Marzzle posted:

The context of the story about Allen Dulles believing in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion was about how antisemitism (and nativism, and anti-immigration sentiment) was deep-seated within the American elite, and particularly in Washington DC.

The "material interest" in play in this case, was Dulles's standing within the FDR administration, where the issue of granting the SS St Louis safe harbor in America became a contentious issue, with Henry Morgenthau on one end and Breckenridge Long on another, with the latter being "helped" by both Nazi agents and home-grown conservatives fearmongering about how letting European Jews into the country would cost jobs, undermine American WASP culture, and strengthen socialism (because of course Judeo-Bolshevism was also something that certain people believed).

It mattered that Dulles believed in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion because it meant that, as an OSS operative, he was one of the people that refused to pass along information about the Holocaust higher up the governmental chain.

There's a lot of nice crack-pings scattered throughout, like that excerpt I posted earlier about Huey Long getting assassinated by the pre-CIA, or how Nixon admitted that the smoking gun typewriter he used to seal the deal on Alger Hiss was a forgery.

That Netflix show was upsetting, so I looked at the thread and found this:

https://twitter.com/profplatypus/status/1296231895320190980

Mignonnes loosely translates to Cuties apparently, and if the show really is calling out gross exploitation I could see that being an ironic title that was totally destroyed by Netflix’s appalling marketing. That image and the original synopsis are blatantly pedophilia though, and not even the kind that people like to brush off as “ephebophilia.” loving gross.
