Movie: https://archive.org/details/the-island- ... oreau-1996


Dennis Hopper was a notorious drug addict https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/dennis-hop ... t-stories/







A similar issue happened with Superman video game (it seems the franchise has been blundered by incompetence.)

I seem to remember a film my Vietnamese neighbors went to see that was about 7-9 hours long, and took up the entire day. I suspect it was this film called Vietnam, filmed in 1987, though might have been showing at a local theater in the early 90s.

(the date on this is wrong, it was a mini-series for TV acted by Nicole Kidman)


https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0140770/

Though I'm starting to doubt this is it. It might have been a Swedish Director that was interviewing people about the horrors of war, similar to the Shoah documentary.

Resan (The Journey) 1987 Running time 873 minutes ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resan )


It's insanely lengthy, but the rest of it is here:

I believe you are the just the person I need for content ideas on my new upcoming conspiracy theories YouTube channel. I want to enlist your help thinking of complex conspiracy theories derived from preexisting ones or from scratch then I'll use various AI tools to curate free online content related to the theories to create videos. Think open source images, mixing up short 6-8 sec clips of any videos online to avoid copyright infringement, AI script generator, AI voiceover, and AI video maker to produce a finished product. The videos would need only be around 10 minutes long since the YouTube algorithm works best with lengthier content.

'The Social Dilemma' Director Says The Internet Is Undermining Democracy
https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2020/09 ... a-director









Initially, my thoughts are: For some reason, I suspect this person is a compulsive liar (I've known many narcissists that confabulate, and it sounds like she came from an upbringing that encourages such behavior.) Whether she was actually sexually abused, judging by the vague explanations (that make it impossible to actually derive any interpretation apart from accepting what she is saying) she is also talking about something that makes it nearly impossible to confront the possibility that she is lying because you would then be seen as somehow being "part of the problem."

When she describes the possibility of dying if telling other people, she needs to take an investigative approach to WHEN, WHERE, HOW, and describe all the details regarding the people and circumstances, and that if any of these people are still around, that all the information is gathered to present the case, and to explain why this might be a problem due to circumstances beyond her control. She doesn't even elaborate on things regarding her father (beyond saying he was a Mayor of a small town, who probably wouldn't want to lose his status in the community if it was known he was pimping his daughter) and his position, and whether him and her mother were ever aware of what was going on, and whether her father was complicit. The idea she glosses over this info suggests she never had any close relation with him.

At some point, people go over the details of their experience, either with telling others who then dismiss what they are saying, or going over the locations that she claims to have been trafficked, and presenting that information for other people to corroborate. All I see here is someone that is mostly vying for attention and showing early photographs of herself in which absolutely nothing is being corroborated with her story (these are stories that make you pay attention to HER, and not people being trafficked. . . If that makes sense?

Followup: I wrote that regarding the first 6 minutes, and I tend to believe that such organizations really do exist, and their are likely people that have given birth to children outside of any recorded network, that might even "sacrifice" children who were born unwanted, or who have little regard to the sanctity of life. Organizations like Pizzagate likely do exist, and very possibly within certain circles of wealth and "status" within groups that prey upon society like vultures. As I continue to watch the video I am kind of wondering, because their are people in those positions that associate sex and dominance (power over others) with a pathological obsession.

I think she lived a very privileged upbringing and may be basing a lot of what she is saying on her experiences of childhood, but I believe she is making this up. This person does sound insane or just a compulsive liar.


I think she was someone that was impressionable and taken advantage of by "people in power" (such as authority figures, not cult figures.) The idea she was being modeled and "groomed" could well be due to the kinds of people that are drawn to photography for the purpose of feeling important.

An example: The film 'Last Tango in Paris' director admits Maria Schneider was sexually assaulted on camera (by Marlon Brando who is also known to fuck guys in the ass) for ‘realistic rape scene’
https://www.stylist.co.uk/people/last-t ... ucci/31103

And yet you won't find a lot of "confessional" videos by Maria Schneider about such incidents, though you do have people corroborating the claims. The people who are victims rarely want to be in the spotlight and often question (due to trauma) if something was wrong with them.

The only person she (the one in the video) names is the Belgian politician, Paul Vanden Boeynants, who happened to be abducted and ransomed by gang members (the same ones she mentions???) with one who died in prison and the other two evading capture. She never ties in the politician with her experience and seems to be making things up about random people connected to a high profile incident (how does the story tie in???)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Vanden_Boeynants


***********

And then, you have people like this that just "blend in"




And a story of a woman who claims she was left in the forest to live with capuchin monkeys for 4-5 years, ended up being sold to a brothel (or just ended up working there?) and then lived with a mafia family, and then became adopted at 14 and started living in Britain. Though people have doubts (it could be a false memory) their have been many cases of people living with animals (and social issues connected to such realities, seems to coincide with trafficking of children, as it seems.) How crap like this occurs, I don't know.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marina_Chapman

Spoiler
Show
A neighbour, Maruja, rescued her from her predicament. Maruja's daughter, Maria, adopted Chapman when Chapman was approximately 14, and Maruja sent Chapman to Bogotá to live with one of her daughters.[3] This family had connections to the city of Bradford, Yorkshire, England, through the textile industry. The family sent their children to Bradford in 1977 and sent Chapman to be a nanny.[2] She still lives in Bradford, England.

She subsequently wrote her autobiography, "The Girl With No Name" (published 2013 by Mainstream Publishing), with the help of her daughter Vanessa;[2] it was rejected by several publishers because they believed it was not authentic.[3] She currently lives in Bradford[3] and married a scientist from the Bradford area.[2] Chapman and her husband have two children.[2]

National Geographic created the documentary Woman Raised By Monkeys. It premiered on Thursday 12 December 2013.[4]
I think she was living in traumatic circumstances as an orphan and started telling the story she has, as a way to cope with the trauma? A bit like Casper Hauser (or more recently, a new wolf child pandemic has occurred:

Opinion of Clockwork Orange

The male figures in the movie were intended to be aberrations of masculinity. Things like Alex's counselor grabbing his nuts to the Priest describing his relating to the experience of what it's like without the company of women, even the deviant behavior of Alex speaking a variation of Polari (old British slang used by gay people at "milk bars,") is a reflection of deviancy and the aberration of normal "identity," just as the motherly figures are equally aberrations (basically artificial and acting young than they are,) with his own father figure being a docile and sheepish person incapable of asserting himself in any way, which leads to the criminals running the insane asylum.

Alex is a reflection of a society that is overcompensating and incapable of any sort of normalcy, where fetishism and fantasy are tolerated for the sake of no other identity. Even the rape scene with the gym (tantric sex?) instructor is aberrant, where she even uses the term, "I'll teach you to break into real people's houses," while wielding a metal bust of Beethoven, while he grabs the oversized phallic "art."

Of course, Alex's very passion of Beethoven is used against him when the crippled man becomes aware of the one thing he's passionate about and tortures him with it, rendering him nearly "impotent" by the authority figures who were there to protect him.

So the fan-edited 'White Dragon cut' is pretty awkward, but it is a good way to get a sense of what the US theatrical release was about (and probably hints at why it failed when it shouldn't have.)

Blade Runner is kind of like the 1980s 2001 Space Odyssey, in that many people didn't understand it, but it gathered a very strong cult following for a reason. The kinds of people that don't like Blade Runner but are Sci-Fi nerds are more likely to go for things like Babylon 5 and see the intuitive approach that Ridley Scott uses as offputting. For whatever reason the pacing is really off in the edited version above, and it seems like a step backwards. I have no idea where you can get the original US release of Blade Runner, and I'm kind of surprised it hasn't popped up on Archive.

I guess it was released in the 'Blade Runner (Five-Disc Ultimate Collector's Edition)' briefcase edition

On-target stuff.

I just came across this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Anton_Wilson. Some of his ideas bring to mind Dr. JP of Toronto University from the Youtubes. Wilson's got lots of fantastically bizarre publications and online there are images of himself sporting deranged look in his eyes that tells me he must know somem. I know it.

Henry Kissinger's actions lead to Cambodia's rise of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge and his genocidal legacy, so you could slay that instead of 250,000 people, Kissinger is responsible for millions of deaths.

Spoiler
Show
Individual actions have consequences, and they must be held accountable for the consequences, which a psychopath in their mind is not accountable to, and any suggestion they are when confronted is usually a glib dismissal.


***********
“Formless ideas, impulses, emotional surges, melodic slogans, naively accepted catchwords … [and] habitual self-delusions” were the targets that Rochau had in mind when he wrote Foundations of Realpolitik.

https://warontherocks.com/2014/06/realp ... f-history/

*********
Even the Khmer Rouge jailers, et al believed his actions helped to increase support for Pol Pot (who would kill close to 3 million people) and much as US actions reneging on places like the Middle East and South America, create a significant problem for future interactions with destabilizing effects that lead to eventual conflicts and "collateral damage" due to people that will begin to rationalize and "justify" their own actions. Currently, a similar argument right now could be that the US downplayed peace treaty agreements with Ukraine and Russia, even though it was close to approval, and we won't yet see the outcome from that.

When Nixon was suggesting he attack Cambodia (which up to this point when Agent Orange was being sprayed following approval by JFK, it went outside the territory of Vietnam and was already causing deforestation in Cambodia and Laos) and by the time of 1969, Kissinger initially thought Nixon was overstepping necessary action in Cambodia by the suggestion of ‘Operation Menu’ (the bomb strikes) but didn't disagree on moral grounds, and the US proceeded to secretly attack Cambodia with Kissinger's complicity.

A few years later (Wikipedia source)

In November 1975, U.S. NSA and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger told the Thai foreign minister: "You should tell the Cambodians that we will be friends with them. They are murderous thugs but we won't let that stand in our way."[24] In a 1998 interview, Kissinger said: "some countries, the Chinese in particular supported Pol Pot as a counterweight to the Vietnamese supported people and We at least tolerated it." Kissinger said he didn't approve of this due to the genocide and said he "would not have dealt with Pol Pot for any purpose whatsoever." He further said: "The Thais and the Chinese did not want a Vietnamese-dominated Indochina. We didn't want the Vietnamese to dominate. I don't believe we did anything for Pol Pot. But I suspect we closed our eyes when some others did something for Pol Pot."[25]

Cambodian leader Norodom Sihanouk, when asked about charges of opportunism in May 1987 ("your critics would say ... that you would sleep with the Devil to achieve your end"), replied: "As far as devils are concerned, the U.S.A. also supports the Khmer Rouge. Even before the forming of the Coalition Government in 1982, the U.S. each year voted in favor of the Khmer Rouge regime. ... The U.S.A. says that it is against the Khmer Rouge, that it is pro-Sihanouk, pro-Son Sann. But the devils, they are there [laughs] with Sihanouk and Son Sann."[26]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegatio ... hmer_Rouge

************

Of course, Kissinger didn't act alone and was just going along with those who allowed him to decide their fate. For a Democracy, what they did was illegal (though surely, it wasn't the last act by a sitting President and their Cabinet to do so. . .)

Something to consider:

US Hegemony and Its Perils
https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/wjbxw/ ... 27664.html

"Countries need to respect each other and treat each other as equals. Big countries should behave in a manner befitting their status and take the lead in pursuing a new model of state-to-state relations featuring dialogue and partnership, not confrontation or alliance. China opposes all forms of hegemonism and power politics, and rejects interference in other countries' internal affairs. The United States must conduct serious soul-searching. It must critically examine what it has done, let go of its arrogance and prejudice, and quit its hegemonic, domineering and bullying practices."

*******************************

Kissinger said that China will not be a threat to the US until 2050, and he knew by that point he would already be dead. . . Did he truly care about the world’s future, or was he just along for the ride?

On-target stuff.

I just came across this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Anton_Wilson. Some of his ideas bring to mind Dr. JP of Toronto University from the Youtubes. Wilson's got lots of fantastically bizarre publications and online there are images of himself sporting deranged look in his eyes that tells me he must know somem. I know it.

This one knows stuff. . .


(15 videos with approximately 10 minutes each.)

He also posted:


Not sure I believe them (I don't)

Though this one had me wondering at the time (the Las Vegas shooting)


**I wrote much of this before finishing the video, which admittedly has a lot of stupid assertions at times, including claiming that Adam Lanza (badly) resembles a security guard (and I very much believe that Adam Lanza was a real person and died exactly how the story is generally described, and I posted about him here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3472&p=10472&hilit=lanza#p10472 .) However many of the suggestions from the video do need to be considered since they do bring up questions as to why some significant improbabilities are brought up with the claims of those who apparently were injured.**

The forum "insider" in the video seems to have known something was about to happen weeks prior to the incident on October 1, 2017, and Stephen Paddock very easily could have been set up as part of an agenda (though clearly brought in suitcases and seemed to play a major role in planning it? Was he just a wilful tool being propped up?)

This image actually looks a bit staged, and the gun is below his leg, and the blood doesn't seem consistent with someone who got shot in the head (I've seen head trauma when someone fell out of an amusement park ride, and those bullets would have blown his head straight off.)

The first link has some comments that very well seem legit, such as one mentioning a band member assistant that used his belt as a tourniquet (though they won't talk about it?)
(Nevermind, he likely used the handgun as the last resort, after using it up most of his rounds, as the SWAT team was at his door, and the time between the images and the blood coagulating and eventually evacuating from the top of his head is what you see in the second image.)

It was a bit ironic that the Dark Tower movie came out right before it in 2017, and the main antagonist has the same-sounding last name. Since the book series is well known, it almost functions as predictive programming.

https://darktower.fandom.com/wiki/Walter_Padick (aka alias Randall Flagg as in the movie)


It seems unusual that someone would write letters and not use email in this day and age, though an ex-con might have known of Stephen Paddock's intent sometime before he carried it out.

The video has plenty to indicate there appeared to be staged actors and really odd inconsistencies, with the possibility that people who weren't "part of the performance" were being warned that they would die. I sort of believe the gunfire was real despite what people were recorded saying, however, a lot of people would go along with a lie if they thought they had done nothing wrong in staging it and getting paid to perpetuate a lie especially if they agreed to take part and signed an NDO with consequences if they told the truth, though also it could easily be suppressed if they did tell others. I've yet to find any videos or photos of victims which resemble the purported suicide image of Stephen Paddock [actually, the video does have a portion which shows some of the bloody scenes following the aftermath, and they very well could be real victims, however, the injuries look very similar to how they depicted Stephen Paddock, suggesting they don't show the entrance or exit wound, as though the person had shot through their head.] The problem is when people assume he was shooting at them and not random "strays" running away from the crowd, even if the people were "sitting ducks" by squatting down the idea they would "play dead" was possibly the only option they would have in a real situation like that had it actually taken place. Any number of them could have been shot and no one would pay much attention other than taking selfies and recording their "moment" for attention on social media. Even the example of someone saying "it doesn't look like they were running" with everything before the last three words being used to narrate what NBC wanted to hear, could be the same context as the examples purporting to claim they were acting along with something that was staged.

It does appear that sound was coming from the stage speakers, and someone (the "ghost shooter") was supposedly coming from below the hotel opposite of Mandalay). Also, three black "go . army . com trucks were shown in the video which coincides with the "insider" forum post at the beginning of the video.

More to read up on (I still don't know.)

Badlands (Terrence Malick, 1973) Martin Sheen, Sissy Spacek,


Direct links to movie in the page ( https://archive.org/details/sahara-1943 )







Whenever I hear the use of robot voices it makes me nearly go into a rage, though fortunately this short reel didn't (though it's worth checking some of them.)

I would prefer such videos describe where they are, though evidently they try to evade being tried for trespassing.
