“I am a lie who always speaks the truth.”

Quote of the Day:

“A film is a petrified fountain of thought.”

Jean Cocteau

    Glad to see him still yukking it up

    I fondly remember him from his Almost Live days

    I’m glad to see he hasn’t yet run afowl of the SJW/Cultural Marxist crowd, tho, give it time…since cultures & ideas no longer have real limits (via geography, technology & Authorities/Gatekeepers), that means bad ideas get spread as well and adopted fiercely by people…

  2. Americanitis

    “Americanitis”. (The suffix “-itis” in medical parlance connotes inflammation; the inflamed things here, I suppose, were people’s relationships to society.)

    As AAB wrote in Destiny of the Nations, the USA has a 6th ray soul — which means the vast majority of us are ridiculously – delusionally – idealistic.

    We read ‘life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness’ as ‘life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and feel cheated when it’s not delivered just-in-time.

    For 40+ years, we heard politicians and economists promise we’d be trickled on, and we assumed they were talking about money. Politicians promised they’d create jobs, jobs, and more jobs, and we naïvely believed they meant ‘in America’, not ‘in China’.

    With rarely a second thought, we suck in our favored brand of propaganda – aka red or purple koolaid – like it’s manna from Heaven. And when things don’t work out the way we were promised, like the addicts we are, we suck in the rationalizations just as enthusiastically.

    Make that, pathetically idealistic.

    So, who are ya’ll voting for this fall — Hitler, Marx, Ayn Rand, Genghis Khan, Grindelwald, or Gargamel?

    Considering what we’ve seen in the primaries, it’s surprising, isn’t it, that none of those are actually alive or eligible?
