"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those
who falsely believe they are free."
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
So yaThought ya
Might like to go to the show.
To feel the
warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow.
Tell me is
something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you
expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold
eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this
disguise.
Momma loves her baby
And daddy loves you
too.
And the sea may look warm to you babe
And the sky may look
blue
But ooooh Baby
Ooooh baby blue
Oooooh babe.
If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million
tear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when
a crack in the ice
Appears
under your feet.
You slip
out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out
behind you
As you claw the thin ice.
When we grew up and
went to school
There were certain teachers who would
Hurt the
children in any way they could
By pouring their derision
Upon
anything we did
And exposing every weakness
However carefully
hidden by the kids
But in the village, it was well known
When
they got home at night, their fat
and
Psychopathic wives
would thrash them
Within inches of their lives.
Daddy's flown
across the ocean
Leaving just a
memory
Snapshot in
the family album
Daddy what else did you leave for me?
Daddy, what'd'ja leave behind for me?!?
All in all it was just
a brick in the wall.
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
We don't need no
education
We dont
need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the
classroom
Teachers leave
them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids
alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All
in all you're just another brick in the wall.
I don't need no arms
around me
And I dont
need no drugs to calm me.
I have seen the writing on the
wall.
Don't think I need anything at all.
No! Don't think
I'll need anything at all.
All in all it was all just bricks in the
wall.
All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.
Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother do you
think they'll like this song?
Mother do you think they'll try to break
my balls?
Mother should I build the wall?
Mother should I run
for president?
Mother should I trust the government?
Mother
will they put me in the firing line?
Mother am I really dying?
Hush now baby, baby, dont you cry.
Mother's gonna make all
your nightmares come true.
Mother's gonna put all her fears into you.
Mother's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She wont let
you fly, but she might let you sing.
Mama will keep baby cozy and warm.
Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
Of course mama'll help to
build the wall.
Mother do you think she's good enough -- to me?
Mother do you think she's dangerous -- to me?
Mother will she
tear your little boy apart?
Mother will she break my heart?
Hush now baby, baby dont you cry.
Mama's gonna check out
all your girlfriends for you.
Mama wont let anyone dirty get through.
Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
Mama will always find
out where you've been.
Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,
You'll always be baby to me.
Mother, did it need to be so high?
Staging is not a new idea as every
ruler will attest.
There are many ways to deceive the eye and
social engineers use them.
Images
are often the only thing an
individual will subconsciously recall.
A
healthy dose of
skepticism is needed in
judging the authenticity of
images.
Deceptive
images that appear truthful
poison our sense of
reality creating a conceptually
false reality and re-writing history.
Images are easily manipulated with
computer-generated digital imaging.
This makes it
extremely easy to invent scenes for the staging of
propaganda.
1996 US military publishes Shock and Awe: Achieving Rapid
Dominance.
This doctrine forms the basis of the
2003 invasion of Iraq.
The authors state that the invading force should "seize control of the environment and
paralyze or so overload
an adversary's perceptions and understanding of events so that the enemy
would be incapable of
résistance."
The signature image of the fall of Baghdad, the
toppling of a statue of Saddam
surrounded by a large, jostling crowd celebrating was staged.
The crowd
was not the "massive demonstration" that was widely reported, a depiction
buttressed by the dense congestion in the close-up images.
A
Reuters long-distance shot of
the entire square where the statue was downed shows the
crowd was small, no more
than about 200 people.
Entertainment brings forth the power of
emotional sensation allowing a vehicle for
escape or release from the
rational dissociated mind.
Entertainment relies heavily on instant emotional
gratification.
Entertainment is an
expression of the will to consume and possess.
Entertainment and consumption
are two sides of the same
biological coin.
Consumption,
aside from the purchase of
necessities, allows anyone with money to buy into
their own fantasy just like the fantasies on Fantasy
Island.
Both are simply a search for the
mindless pleasure of
emancipation from the onerous halls of reason and
the other bonds of
self-restraint or self-control.
Entertainment transports us
through time and space enabling us to escape our personal reality -
if only for a moment
before the moment is
gone.
"The deliberate
application of the techniques of theater to
politics,
religion,
education,
literature,
commerce,
warfare,
crime, has
converted everything into branches of show
business - the overriding objective is
to mesmerize.
Andy Warhol ushered in
a new age for art causing
the custodians of culture to roll
over in their graves - art as
entertainment.
Andy Warhol realized in
entertainment monoculture people
themselves became pop
cultural artifacts and celebrities were human soup
cans.
The most important art movement became the art of the creation of
the celebrity, the celebrity
business plan." - Neil Gabler
"I was
not surprised to hear that teenagers and young adults are not really
entertained by the media
devices to which they have become attached.
The reason is that
entertainment is like dessert - a
little goes a long way.
People derive genuine
satisfaction by actually doing things such as making their own music,
dancing, creating art,
volunteering, growing
flowers, knitting sweaters, repairing old bicycles,
learning a new
language.
The fact that youngsters waste so much time trying to
find virtual satisfaction shows that we need to work harder to make real
satisfaction more accessible to them." - Ruth Anne Hammond
Before CIA involvement
art was sublime.
Art
redirected thought from the sensual to
the intellectual, from the
temporal to the
eternal, from
the corporeal to
the spiritual.
Art was not only concerned with
aesthetics but also
morality.
Art,
operating on the right brain, is
beyond the reach of
intellect.
When the senses and emotions
are stimulated it is sensational.
Entertainment induced neural
reactions in much the same way as
drugs.
Artists create artwork assuming different spectators will
see different things.
Entertainers captivate by deploying
familiar words,
images,
symbols,
techniques or
stories in an attempt to garner
a collective
response.
Entertainment is about the
power to replace the sublime
with fantasy.
Entertainment requires sensation
triumph over reason to suspend disbelief.
Electrification and related technologies built the
entertainment industry. Printing advances allowed for
illustration and
eventually photographic
reproduction on billboards and in
books, newspapers and
magazines.
Magazines aimed to entertainment and
condition the masses.
They achieved this by
the liberal and extravagance
use of photographs of individuals deemed socially
important accompanied by
improvised
articles.
Labor conditions
changed as wages rose and hours declined.
Ordinary citizens began to
have more money
and leisure time.
A new attitude emerged
among laborers accompaning these changes - an
emotional reaction against the numbing
conditions of the machine age.
At the end of the work
day, workers left their
factories wanting to have a good time,
forget work and
forget their personal
reality.
Entertainment satisfies the
desire to forget the daily grind.
Cicero was trained by Roscius the
comedian and
Aesop the
tragedian.
Napoleon Bonaparte took
instruction from the actor Talma in the art of small talk and carefully
calculated everything from his rages to his poses.
In antebellum America
political orators Daniel
Webster, John Calhoun and
Henry Clay studied
theatrical declamation, prompting theater managers to complain that their
presentations could not compete with those of politicians.
The
theatrical tradition leaped into aritocratic circles when
Theodore Roosevelt
played the part of a larger-than-life
version of himself.
"Beware of those who would use
violence, too often it is violence
they want and neither truth nor
freedom."
Louis
Lamour
Spectacle
1. a public display or performance, esp a showy or ceremonial
one.
2. a thing or person seen as unusual: he makes a spectacle of
himself.
3. a strange or interesting object or phenomenon
mid-14c., "specially prepared or arranged display," from Old French
spectacle "sight, spectacle, Roman games" (13c.), from Latin spectaculum "a
public show, spectacle, place from which shows are seen," from spectare "to
view, watch, behold," frequentative form of specere "to look at," from PIE
*spek- "to observe"
"The average
millionaire is only
the
average dishwasher dressed in a new suit."
George
Orwell
Festivals in ancient Rome
were an important part of Roman religious life during both the Republican and
Imperial eras, and one of the primary features of the Roman calendar.
Feriae ("holidays" in the sense of "holy days"; singular also feriae or
dies ferialis) were either public (publicae) or private (privatae).
State holidays were celebrated by the Roman people and received public
funding.
Games (ludi), such as the Ludi Apollinares, were not
technically feriae, but the days on which they were celebrated were dies festi,
holidays in the modern sense of days off work.
Although feriae were
paid for by the state, ludi were often funded by wealthy individuals.
Marcus Terentius Varro defined feriae as "days instituted for the sake
of the gods."
Religious rites were performed on the feriae, and public
business was suspended.
This plagued commerce as there was many
festivals: 13 in January, 16 in February, 17 in March, 16 in April, 14 in May,
19 in June, 16 in July, 18 in August, 7 in September(grain harvest), 13 in
October, 8 in November, 19 in December - for a total of 176 festival days a
year.
1960 Tall Story, a romantic comedy, premiers starring
Anthony Perkins with Jane Fonda in her first screen role.
Jane Fonda
goes to college to get married but pretends otherwise.
Anthony Perkins
is secretly propositioned, via a radio
message, by a gambling syndicate
to lose a key game to a
visiting Russian team.
Perkins refuses to do this, but is unable to
return the money that appears as he does not know
who is behind the attempted
bribe.
Rather than
throw the game, a
moral Perkins decides to deliberately fail an ethics exam, which automatically
disqualifies him from playing.
Perkins ethics professor, Leo Sullivan,
is coming under student and faculty pressure to reverse the failure and give
him a passing grade.
Sullivan refuses to do this on the ethics
principle of equality.
Coach mentions something about education getting
in the way of sports.
Sullivan gets arrested after calling the arresting
officer a Cossack finally
consenting to give Perkins an oral retest while
the game is in
progress.
After this academics in US colleges take a backstage to
sports.

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational
purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its
author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity
outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to
discern pr☠paganda
from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an international
corporate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of
reality on the human race. Religious intolerance occurs
when any group refuses to tolerate religi☯us practices, religi☸us
beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web
site marks the founding of a system of philºsºphy nªmed the
Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional
gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on reaso🐍 which
requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church
buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a
pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n through the pursuit of the
knowλedge of reaλity in the cu☮ing the spi☮itual
co☮☮uption that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of the
Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to
their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate
¢rime."
This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes
vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the vi☬lence
that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate
cartels desire to control the
human race. The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already
controls the world economic system, c☸rp☸rate media
w☸rldwide, the global industrial military entertainment complex and is
responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg●
w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems.
Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with
bi☣hazards at the point of a gun.
American social mores and values
have declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests
in the ability to deceive the populace in general through
c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal
butt☠ns which have been πreπrogrammed into the
πoπulation through prior mass media psych☣l☣gical
☣perati☣ns. The results have been the destruction of the
fami♙y and the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere
to the corrupt internati☭nal elites vision of
a perfect world. Through
distra¢tion and ¢oer¢ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught
of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward
s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that
further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
