RE: The Blue Pill. - Mystic Wanderer - 02-03-2019 From BIAD's post above: Quote:"It’s a change that is inside as well as out. These changes are not superficial but deep inside me."...' Three things could explain this: 1. The liberal mindset has damaged her thinking, 2. She is subconsciously remembering a good past life as a black person and wants it back, 3. She's lost her freakin' mind! I think it's #3. Who in the world would want to carry boobs around that big?! Oh, the back pain! RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 02-19-2019 The hidden reality is that many of those who celebrate no borders and diversity are the ones who are using the forced racist-campaign to hide their own misdeeds. But one of their failings is they can't help stumbling in their rhetoric and the media will usually give them a pass. It isn't a straight-forward hatred to people of a particular minority, it's usually just a hidden ignorance borne of the class they enjoy. The recent Jussy Smollett's situation is one example, the 'white-male, red-neck lyncher with the MAGA hat' character is a classic meme used by those who wish to divide a country. But occasionally, the faux-fawning of a particular minority does slip out. Quote:John Motson apologises for calling Millwall’s Tom Elliott ‘big, black and brave’The Guardian: See...? Mr. Motson's comment is merely descriptive and holds nothing negative, but the three words together imply the stereotypical muscular 'Mandingo'-like black slave to those who perceive people of colour in that way. And to hide it, they used to accuse other stereotypical characters of their inner-guilt. The problem is that such pompous obtuse ass-holes are unwilling to sully themselves by interacting with the common person and have -and still are, now performing their witch-hunt in the environment they also exist in. The standard racist was -in the US, a white male with a southern-State accent, a baseball hat on his head and driving a pick-up truck. They lived outside of a city and are deemed working-class, they may also own a ferocious dog, enjoy gun-ranges and drink beer. But due to the bubble that the mainstream media and the politicians they serve -live in, an aloof perception of a racist must exist in the same circles the accusers inhabit. Hence, a racist is currently a middle-class white male, probably working in an office or delivering goods in the capital. They are brusque, usually ex-servicemen, enjoy going to a football game and tend to be strong-minded. For the United Kingdom, we once had young white working-class males who struggle for employment. Skinheads with tattoos and wore 'bovver-boots' to kick their particular prey. They cursed and spoke with a northern regional accent, went to soccer matches and fought with each other. Their fathers drank in the local pub or working-men's club and bitched about how their manual jobs have been taken by immigrants. The same fathers of these dreamt-up haters were once coal-miners, steel-workers and lived in Council-rented houses. Their wives watched like-minded television soap-operas and had poor parental skills. Today, that stereotypical British racist has been promoted to almost the same standing as their American brethren. The younger racists now discuss hate-filled views on the internet because their accusers believe a local tavern is too costly for them to frequent. These imagined racists may have been to college, but they probably now work in servicing trades, shelf-stacking at a Supermarket or other physical 'low-reasoning' employment. And obviously, the females of the working class are rarely mentioned. Feminists wouldn't like that as they see the average housewife as a 'quiet warrior' living under the oppressive thumb of her (white) partner. She endures -even if the relationship is a two-female alliance because all women are slaves -except in a lesbian partnership, of course! Propaganda for the little people... and many believe it. Collective bullshit from a group of fairy-wealthy people who wish to display themselves as all-encompassing and happy to embrace a concept they believe that the working-class are unable to appreciate, namely diversity. The irony is that the US and the UK are already diverse, different races, beliefs and interests... but of course, not the right ones. It has always been about cultural grading. Certain parties in the US want Mexicans to illegally enter the United States because they want their vote. They will also enjoy having them work for low pay, do menial tasks and behave in the manner the upper-class believe they will. Like the lower ranks that they are perceived as. A lawn doesn't cut itself, you know. In Britain it's the same. For evidence of the above, just look at your daily news outlet. What constitutes news today? (19th Feb 2019) 'Fashion designer Lagerfeld dead at 85' With all respects to this person, who would this seriously concern?! He lived in an affluent environment, wealthy and created expensive clothes. I've never met him -although I would like to think he was a nice person and I'm only surprised a main news periodical hasn't produced an article about him being racist! After all, he was male and he was white. ''Don't feed the monster!' The people who have stopped buying new clothes' A suggestion that the West purchases and wastes too many clothes. An article from the same country (UK) -that has food-banks for struggling one-parent families and holds an average poverty level of around 25% that has remained the same since 1994. Of course, we'll omit the rhetoric of foreign lands of colour oppressing their citizens by forcing them to work long hours for poor wages and bad working-conditions. That might reflect on Mr. Lagerfeld and his friends... yer' know, the rich. 'Scientist who warned early about climate change, popularized term 'global warming' dies at 87' How does this headline impact the day-to-day work of a forklift driver? It doesn't, but it's an easy piece to knock out before doing lunch. Mainstream Journalists would never dirty their hands in discovering what might be interesting to an average reader or viewer... no, they make the news and woe betide anyone who argues with it. Just ask the many harassed political commentators on YouTube! There are other examples, but the reality is that success is deliberately being frowned upon by those who've succeeded. It's an old trick. The rich lie to the poor, they keep them arguing between themselves and their eye off what is really going on. The media are complicit in this social-control and foolishly believe they are part of the winning tribe, hence their gilded headlines that promote those with high-standing to be more important than their customers. (My own example of today's mainstream media's acumen of the real world: 'OMG...! Lady Montague-Carruthers Cracks A Nail Playing Tennis... Film At Eleven')!! RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 02-21-2019 On Thursday morning, my wife was busying herself making my son's lunch for work when to break up the monotony, she switched on the TV to see another news article about the continuing strife of the ISIS fighter's wife who used to live in Bethnal Green, London. A ticker-tape wound its way along the bottom of the screen that announced that a fire in Bangladesh had killed around seventy people, the same country that Britain had said Shamima Begum had a duel citizenship with. The BBC reported that the blaze started in a residential area, but the Indian Express states it was a chemical warehouse. Odd...? Maybe, maybe not. But my better-half found it coincidental. Empire actor -Jussie Smollett has been arrested for his fake lynching accusation and I was surprised to discover the incident-that-wasn't-an-incident was taken at face value during the time that Senators Kamala Harris and Corey Booker succeeded in getting the Senate to pass a federal anti-lynching law in the United States. Coincidence...? Maybe, but what concerned me was that I'd seen other similar instances where tragedy and remedy have gone hand-in-hand via politics and the media. I've ran down news articles that had no origin and would stand alone as mindless acts of violence or single occurrences except for a story where some legislator was attempting to fix the exact problem. The expression 'False-Flag' is bandied around on the internet and many roll their eyes and think of conspiracy websites full of neck-beards who can't get girlfriends, tapping away that they're onto 'The Man' and his NWO manoeuvring. But sometimes, it certainly looks that way. Outrage on social media has been the usual diet of most mainstream media networks, minor frivolous points of view that -when viewed from a different angle, can fill up a column or two when a Journalist doesn't want to leave their desk. But life-taking fires and career-ruining deceit for self-promotion in an oncoming election in the real world? It makes you wonder if this 'Q'-character knows something we don't! RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 02-23-2019 Every news item these days is layered with a drama that -to those who take the Blue Pill, might seem full of despair because in reality, it's not happening to them in this physical world, only in their heads. As in the last posting, I indicated how the gentry-media determine what is atrocious and what is a 'man-bites-dog' story for their customers, sugar after that dosage of spirit-destroying information. It seems that most global news outlets perceive these readers and viewers as fairly wealthy folk who enjoy miserable, emotive reports that demands such action as relating their heart-felt concerns via social media. Something that means nothing and has no effect on the actual occurrence, but another indicator of how an audio device has become a tool to visually display one's self-absorbed, faux-maturation. I also understand that the established media have the luxury of walking away from such a life-changing situation, but I'd like to think that many of those readers/viewers would also expect the same media -in fact, anyone who wishes to be believed, to maintain a narrative of what is supposed to be really going on in any setting they report on. Venezuela, a country that some would suggest screwed-up its economics through the adherence to a style of socialism, is now struggling to sustain some-sort of reasonable level of society. The many articles of how Venezuela's reliance on crude oil being their only major export has brought them to the brink of revolution and mass-starvation, shows that at least, the world's media are watching. 'Nearly 90% of Venezuelans live in poverty, a rate exacerbated by failed economic policies and a plunge in global oil prices' The Guardian: 'Over 60 percent of Venezuelans surveyed said that during the previous three months they had woken up hungry because they did not have enough money to buy food. About a quarter of the population was eating two or less meals a day, the study showed. Last year, the three universities found that Venezuelans said they had lost an average of 8 kilograms during 2016. This time, the study’s dozen investigators surveyed 6,168 Venezuelans between the ages of 20 and 65 across the country of 30 million people.' Reuters: 'Police in crisis-hit Venezuela believe animals stolen from a zoo were taken to be eaten amid chronic food shortages in the South American country.' Sky News: So, with this awful situation in mind, what would you do...? What would... let's say, a person of wealth do to help the starving people that are a majority in Maduro's South American country? The President is halting food convoys at Venezuela's borders, his forces have fired upon the hungry civilians that crave assistance from their fellow planet-dwellers, so what would be first on your mind to make sure the poverty-stricken public of Venezuela had something to eat that wasn't once a display-animal? Quote:Can music save Venezuela? Richard Branson hopes so.SOURCE: Some say music is the food of love, but you can't eat it when you're starving. Unless -of course, your level in the social order isn't defined as 'poverty', then you can kick back, do a selfie and listen to the tunes. Oh well, turn another page. RE: The Blue Pill. - Mystic Wanderer - 03-07-2019 Here's great BIG blue pill for you. The DNC has stated it will not allow Fox News to cover The Democratic Primary Debates and offered on reason for their decision. They won't tell you, so I will. They don't want any network out there that would offer up anything but "kissing butt" reporting/questions for the DNC, that's why! Go ahead, listen to the one-sided views of the debates, lap up all the lies, bathe/wallow in the Blue Pill Pond (swamp) until you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and then when you find out they lied to you don't say we never told you so! Quote:On Wednesday, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced that they will not allow Fox News to host a presidential primary debate because of Fox News’ “deep ties between the conservative network and President Trump’s inner circle.” Here you go; don't get choked.

RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 03-10-2019 Quote:Knife crime may be an emergency but no one can agree how to stop it.The Guardian: Notice the one word that is missing in this entire article that will definitely have a bearing on knife-crime statistics...? See how The Guardian -and to be fair, many other media outlets always suggest looking to an authoritative body to help decrease this crime and yet, fail to see the irony in what they're pointing out. The word that is missing is 'Parents'. Instead of looking to bureaucratic bodies to stop the youngsters, it's time to hold the parents accountable. Please don't tell me controlling your grown-up child is an issue, it isn't. I do understand if you're a single mother and failed to infuse the right standards in your kid as he/she was growing up, but he/she's still your kid. The Government isn't your father, no matter how many different facets of care it covers. It gives you a home and gives you money for food and clothes. It tells you what you can and can't do and it constantly assures you that you can't do without it. Put the Twitter down and stop thinking about which coat to wear when you visit your child's grave. Act like a boring, responsible parent to make sure the next generation won't need the Government teat to suck on and will enhance their position, the task you failed to do for yourself. Be the person your child needs and forget the stereotype-drama on social media. It's not important if your child came about because you perceive social welfare as a way of life or maybe you made a mistake in a back-alley with the guy who promised he loved you, the kid is here now and alive. Read a book... both you and your issue, read a book. But of course, taking such advice that would open a big can of nasty worms in the politically-correct arena of the middle-class and those who write such bland articles -like above, will make them feel uneasy.

Quote:Study finds a race gap in air pollution —whites largely cause it; blacks and Hispanics breathe it.USA Today: RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 03-23-2019 The referendum regarding the United Kingdom is still being played-out as some form of class-warfare, where those who deem themselves above others allow the mainstream media to portray them as selfish and arrogant. Regardless of the outcome -unlike the 1975 referendum on whether Great Britain should remain in the Common Market, the binary result is not being taken lightly and those in the public eye are taking a stand against the plebeians who took an opposing position. From the general reports about 'Brexit' in the established Press, it seems that leaving the EU is an insane idea and yet, the same news outlets fail to ask those voted to leave, why. By doing so and staying with the pro-remain celebrities, the divisions in society continue and the true nature of that gulf becomes more obvious. Once again, it's not religion and it's not skin-colour, it seems to be those who view themselves as 'non-deplorables' ................................. The full real and neutral facts of the benefits for staying in the European Union or becoming a country using the World Trade Organisation regulations -(which we already do), were not fully shown during the referendum and even now, are cherry-picked for a preferred narrative in the same manner I have done within the brackets above. But ask yourself these questions. If leaving the EU is such a bad idea -as often demonstrated in the MSM, then why did the referendum result show that the majority of those who chose to vote, voted to do so? Could they all have been confused and instead of taking the natural 'safety route' -derived from knowing what they already have, selected an unknown and possibly poorer situation? If -as the same Press occasionally imply by interviewing a member of the public who was in favour of remaining, a large quantity of 'Leavers' are elderly, then would they intentionally or even accidentally condemn their children and grandchildren to a future of negative existence? ................................. Still, it makes good headlines with the minimum of input and the maximum of outrage.

RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 03-30-2019 On the day that the United Kingdom were supposed to leave the European Union, the 17,410,742 voters who wished to go also visited the Houses of Parliament to protest on a weak Government. Of course, the biased and aloof media of London assumed the thousands that arrived were the people they imagine... namely unwashed Klan members from the wilds of the north. What seizes my nads is that when one of the elite Journalists makes a debatable comment, they apologise and move on. When anyone on social media say anything allegedly 'offensive', they're gagged or expelled. Quote:Channel 4 apologises for Jon Snow's 'white people' remark.The Guardian: RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 04-06-2019 The awkward realities of what today's Journalism is really all about continues as the imaginative articles regarding a person being elected to the highest office in the most powerful country in the world panned-out to be nothing more than a poorly-scripted movie plot. Ignoring the insults that indicated the security agencies of the US -and other nations around the world, were woefully inept to investigate a person wishing to be President, the American-based establishment media aggressively cultivated the deliberate lie and in doing so, offered the idea that Russia had placed -with the assistance of a ignorant electorate, a 'puppet' into a position where Vladimir Putin could steer the United States. Robert Mueller's long and costly investigation found nothing except corrupt people who did corrupt things that had nothing to do with a 'Russian-collusion'. The exciting spy-novel scheme involving Donald Trump was proved to be false and left those who had propagated it in a sour situation... did the media willfully deceive their customers and are there officials still in Government who purposely fed the inaccurate information to the Press? The answer to that question is complicated due to the Class-system we live in. Whether we like it or not, there are people in the public-eye, positions of power and of above-average wealth, who deem themselves wiser and possibly 'better' than those they share this world with. It could be suggested that we all do it in some form, a natural act derived from a tribal consciousness and a need to feel confident in an ever-changing environment. But many around the world had come to believe that regardless of breeding, social standing or accumulation of wealth, the men and women of the news-trade would always deliver impartial information in the understanding that trust was the paramount goal and the idea of a red-pill/blue-pill locus was simply a title to validate a certain perspective. Trust or mistrust. It's been suggested that all news has evolved into a form of entertainment, slight glances at reality and wishful-thinking blended into a recipe that holds two options in its mixing. A news-piece can either bring good feelings to the receiver or provoke outrage that either way, could demand the recipient to buy the newspaper tomorrow or remain at the television screen for further updates. Ratings ensure payment to media companies from advertising products and so to have an audience eagerly awaiting the latest from a savoury situation is a must and sadly, that's where the line between integrity and show-business blurs. It's gone on for years and the only surprise is a large part of todays generation has just woken up to it. For most not involved in the media business, that's where the story ends. They either continue to accept what the mainstream media offer or turn to alternative ways of acquiring current happenings around the world. But for the established Press, it's a worry. Just as Eddie Murphy's character said in 'Trading Places' "Once you have a man with no legs, you never go back, baby...", when it comes to customers realising that the trade of Journalism has been compromised in the name of preferred politics, some do not come back. What is worse, they go somewhere else. This isn't an ethical issue -regardless what a well-spoken person on the television or computer screen will tell you, it's about money. Isn't it strange that you'd easily tell the truth for free, but to lie, there has to be something in it for you?! It's true that a conduct does reside in the standard-recognised skill of Journalism, but when ' Seek Truth and Report It, Balanced Reporting and Self-Accountability' are applied next to the multitude of articles about the Mueller investigation and Donald Trump, it's obvious that such noble qualities were grievously ignored. Now self-styled Journalists on the internet are taking-up the baton that those who were entrusted to report on the 2016 US election and following bacchanal failed to show even-handedly, but will they adhere to the disciplines expected by the disenchanted minions of the established Press? We can only cross our fingers and hope. ........................................................... Here's a palate cleanser from the heavy stuff above, although what will be seen certainly won't make you feel better. It's another example of how those in the mainstream media have become lazy in their arrogance and in doing so, are killing a great occupation that a public once loved. It holds the bonus of irony too! The BBC Breakfast team offered a light piece about a family in Norwich (UK) purchasing a new house and discovering its construction is allegedly below par. Not exactly vital information to the people waking-up to the account of Justin and Tracy Revell finding structural faults in their new home -you may say, but it is Saturday and a time of the week when 'family-friendly' stories can be used to fill a column or a couple of minutes before displaying the weather. It's falls under the heading 'Man-Bites-Dog' story. Saturday 6th April 2019 and an article appears on the BBC's Television News channel to go along with the same account on their website. As I indicated above, weekends in the media-world become casual and generic articles, non-time-sensitive accounts and opinion pieces are used to imply the ever-vigilant customer can tarry a while, rest from intake of the assumed much-needed fodder of the work days. Here it is. Quote:Growing complaints about new-build houses.BBC: There's more in the link provided and like I said, the issues of these homeowners may not seem relevant in the form of timing, the houses are supposedly below standard and would've been yesterday or even last week. This isn't a 'time-sensitive' story. But look at this... Quote:Families have to move out of new Costessey homes TWICE as street hit by building problems.Evening News: (More in the link) The original article was aired almost a year ago and in the BBC's televised and website reports, it isn't acknowledged that it's old news! Time-sensitive is one thing, but a year?! I understand the reality is the report is merely a vehicle to indicate standards in the house-building business has supposedly declined, but when debating standards of any business, it could be suggested that the accuser should make sure their own criterion cannot be disputed! Journalism is in its death-throes right now and this is just another example of how it came to being in such a state. Will social media behave with the same hypocrisy...? Keep those fingers crossed. RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 04-08-2019 Quote:Jon Snow: Ofcom* investigates 'white people' remark at Brexit rally.BBC: *Ofcom is the Communications Regulator in the UK. What the ageing television Presenter meant was he'd never seen so many working-class people, imagined-racists and people with nationalist pride. To Mr. Snow, this means ignorant brutes who beat those around them who have a different skin-colour and hold a different opinion regarding leaving the EU. Even his very subconscious sees those who are outside of his self-assumed superior bubble as folk to be looked down on instead reporting to. RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 04-13-2019 Okay, we know that the mainstream media are floundering for outrage news now that the Mueller probe came to discover that the Hollywood-scripted episodes of Donald Trump took over the US with help from the Russians was actually something akin to a steaming pile of crap. Since then, the public are turning away from from established news outlets and instead of re-setting their values, what remains of the Fourth Estate are scrambling around looking for minority-hurt stories in hope of reviving the agenda ordered down from their Publishers. And that's the problem here. it's not that evil people walk the halls of global media with intent of subverting their customers, it's because of a mindset that's been nurtured for a couple of generations. You see, many of us became disciples of hope. Hope is an emotional desire that commonly stems from a negative position. To hope is to dream, imagine something that is different from a current position. To hope is personal and if one fails to bring that goal to fruition, then hope can make failure feel better by blaming external forces for the defeat. It also has the added bonus of when one becomes a lover of hope, the wished-for goal cannot be truly reached due to the realisation that the feelings of being in a communal sadness and enjoying the affinity of that group, will end and the goal would have to implemented. This means the possibility of failing to maintain that intention and showing that you could've been simply wrong all along. But this is due to having a binary mentality that the young use in their development. Many things can be both right and wrong at the same time and in the adult world of nuance-based compromise, a fair and balanced system can be achieved. When such a focus in used to solve a problem or enhance a situation, the individual is lost in a team-ethic that demands that the objective is paramount and not the people involved. Hence the feelings of self-importance are dowsed and only the achievement is normally celebrated. Politicians know that this impatient indignation of youth can be utilised to promote their standing. Initially, the destination isn't as important in political circles as the method used to get there. Look at the ideals that have been called for in the last thirty-or-so years, upward standards to improve the world and put the human-race in a better place. In reality, nothing as really changed. We're still polluting the world, we're still consuming everything we can get our hands on and we're still killing each other. Hoping for a better tomorrow brings nothing to the table, only the steadfast confidence and willpower does that. When one shows leadership, failure and success go hand-in-hand and hold as much worth. The true goal is to take on the obstacles and defeat them, Taggart was correct in 'Galaxy Quest'...Never Give Up, Never Surrender! Or do we just sit and do nothing except hope....? Hope that someone else will make the bad things go away and the Morlocks scuttle-off underground. Hope does spring eternal, but it's healthier when it's wearing a pair of steel-capped boots and carries a f*ckin' big stick!

After all, fires can be 'apocalyptic' as the Guardian pointed out with Saddleworth Moor incident and no amount of bravery can replace a loved-one dying because of a crumbling structure.

We should invent people who think on that level. Quote:'..."The worst has been avoided." An important question is whether the person who fills out the insurance-claim document will keep a straight-face when they write in the Possible Cause section: 'Act Of God'... because it's either that or blame the restorers who stem from an environment where someone else switches off the string of bulbs when they finish or unplug the kettle after they've discussed ninth-century history. Maybe the plebs will -once again, take the brunt of the denunciations... and I mean the unskilled workers, not any immigrants or radical-religious folk that enjoy France's liberal culture.

RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 04-27-2019 Now that the great saga of Vlad Trump has finally fizzled out and the multitude of desk-bound Journalists struggle to come up with something that doesn't interrupt their morning Mochaccinos, one of their desperate ways is to just rehash old articles and sprinkle a little 'feels' into it.

Well... that's if a spy is now someone who likes to live in South Dakota with politically-involved boyfriend and influence the 2016 election by doing pro-gun speeches to promote the right to bear arms in Russia. Quote:Maria Butina: Russian spy jailed after trying to infiltrate National Rifle Association. 'Managed'...? She and her boyfriend opened a-now dissolved business in South Dakota called 'Bridges LLC' and visited DC, Trump election rallies -posing as a Journalist. Managed indicates she struggled to get to the US and start her enterprise!! Quote:'...Butina later pleaded guilty as part of a deal after she indicated her willingness to cooperate with prosecutors. If anyone reading this thinks Maria Butina is anything to do with the Mueller investigation, you'd be wrong. Heavy.com report: Quote:"Her attorney said Butina has been willing to cooperate with Special Counsel Robert Mueller in his investigation She's collateral damage -as such, in a bitter in-house D.C. political squabble. The NRA are the Nazis in the pantomime and any group like Right To Bear Arms group that Butina founded in 2012, will be painted in the same way. But don't get me wrong, she's no angel. Back to the dated Sky article. Quote:'...Judge Tanya Chutkan said the sentence reflected the seriousness of the offence and would deter others from committingSKY News: Well she managed to create several furniture retail stores back in Altai Krai, an out-of-the-way region of Russia that borders Khazakhstan, she can do it again. Maybe ask Paul Erickson for a hand-out...? He's bound to be in the money game after being a lawyer and a campaigner for Romney and Pat Buchanan. There's more in the link, but it's another example of what the D.C. swamp is really all about. ......................................... Old news twisted on its head and given as new. Damned that social-media-thingy. RE: The Blue Pill. - BIAD - 05-15-2019 I suppose that if you shovel shit for long enough, you become to believe everyone wears wellington boots and owns a shovel. With mainstream media dying, it would be nice to believe that those who read auto-cues and write click-bait articles for a living, know in their hearts that their trade has failed and now they're just bucketing the water out of the sinking boat of true journalism. But it seems that their need to maintain their station of class is so crucial to their original task of informing the public of relevant information, the actual information has been transformed to cater for the MSM's place in the social order. Is it newsworthy to report a homeless person overdosed on spice in a country lane and died? Would it warrant a one-minute piece on a televised news-outlet of Brenda's enjoyment of mowing the overgrown garden of a disabled neighbour? Or does the dwindling audiences of the mainstream media prefer to know and understand the trials and tribulations of those who obtain -a difference from seeking, a healthy and affluent lifestyle in the industry of story-telling and illusion? A pattern in the form of for-or-against would surely offer the answer. The world of journalism has jumped the shark, wandered into the false realms of entertainment and now it seems, they can't find their way out. If a brain surgeon cannot tell you the name of the main foe in Avergers Endgame and the lawn-cutting Brenda can, which one is more relevant than the other? In the kingdom of journalism, it seems it all comes down to the same old function of pushing a preferred narrative in an known environment, that of entertainment. Quote:Cannes Film Festival fires opening warning to ‘ignorant’ world leaders. Movies are lies, directing actors to perform for the public is pretence. The characters in the movies aren't real -even if the film is about someone who really existed. It's all just fantasy for a public to pay and hopefully enjoy. Mr. Iñárritu's opinion is as valid as anyone else, but it seems it only gets an airing in the media due to his job in entertainment. Brenda's view gets left in the grass-clippings. Quote:'..."The problem is what is happening is ignorance," he added. He spoke ahead of the opening premiere of Jim Jarmusch's How did Mr. Iñárritu and his fellow-movie folk get to Cannes...? It's not the usual 'Gotcha' moment I 'm aiming for with that query, it's the self-moral qualities that intrigues me. If the world is melting -as Mr. Iñárritu and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggests, how does one hold such a virtuous anger whilst sitting in a First-Class suite six miles above the alleged liquefying planet? Please tell me there's at least, a small pang of hypocrisy in the quiet room on the 747? Could this be an obvious balm to counter the articles about Dame Emma Thompson flying over to to London in order to cajole the recent protests of a group known as 'Extinction Rebellion'? Quote:'...Earth off its axis Ignoring the BBC's duplicity here where they quote lines from a fictional screenplay made by adults pretending to be someone else, may I submit that such a script doesn't sound very thought-provoking. Zombies don't exist and Polar-fracking isn't a thing, unless you include anywhere there's snow is labelled 'polar' -that is. Bill Murray plays Cliff Robertson, Adam Driver pretends to be Ronnie Peterson and Tilda Swinton acts out the character Zelda Winston. All fictional, made-up, imagined ideas that cannot interact with the real world. Oh... before I forget, Brenda is fake too. Just in case the art-critics at the Beeb are confused. Quote:'...The topical movie comes just weeks after the Extinction Rebellion protests brought parts of London to a standstill...' Relevant to this affluent gathering of movie-performers? Or was it because a load of middle-class white people descended on London and after a theatrical display of virtue signalling -behavior that filled many a newspaper column and television news minutes -may I add, the whole farce caused nothing but dismay for car and truck drivers and loss of income to local businesses. Using the BBC's highly-suspect manner of delivering information, the same movie came just weeks after the Sri Lanka bombings and the fictional Brenda's tending to the weed-filled border of the neighbour's garden. Germane to the Director's comments...? or just the same level of poor word-smithing? Quote:'...The 55-year-old, who was joined on the jury press conference panel by judges including Babel actor Elle Fanning and Oscar The preening of self-worth never stops does it. It wouldn't surprise me if Mr. Lanthimos demanded a soundtrack to be made for use during his directing. It's great that some people can live in a fantasy world and that the mundane and terrible lives that go on in the real world are far-removed from the lifestyles in Hollywood and Cannes, it really is. But... just don't. The average reader and viewer who have the luxury to enjoy entertaining books and cinema really don't need your phony dismay. Quote:'...The Dead Don't Die, which also features Selena Gomez, Chloe Sevigny and a brilliant cameo by the undead coffee-addicted Iggy This is the movie with only two black actors in prominent roles... and they're men too! Anyone can virtue-signal. (sigh) Quote:'...There were fits of laughter across the press screening throughout, though, and none more so than when Murray appeared to Oh, I'd have thought they'd have headed off to tell the dolphins that everything was going to be okay and then pose for cameras. Such a noble breed. Quote:'Art not fame'BBC: And Brenda will hold her breath in anticipation. The wandering troubadours of old have grown into aloof detached agents of ethicality, bastions of elevated principles that need to be heard by the unwashed. Sounds like a comedy-sketch... doesn't it? |
