In 1962, an Italian magazine carried a story on how the world will look in 2022:
Reality in 2020:
The latter is from https://hayko.tv/officialstormbringer/CF_YA9nAAmX
What the original artist got right was that we’d be living in tightly packed, hermetically sealed bubble worlds of marketing and consumerism. What they got wrong was the bubbles turned out to be DIY*, and the bright neon lights are inside people’s heads as the world around us becomes increasingly brutalist and dreary.
*Covid put the lie to our manufacturing capabilities even given the most perfect capitalist incentives of all history. Imagine being able to make billions by attaching two strings to a piece of paper, and being unable to do it after three months, and still calling yourself a manufacturing company. Think about it: 300 million panicked customers who can’t *not* buy your paper product in the middle of an anti-Chinese patriotic frenzy. Hipster handmade designs all over the internet. Still couldn’t do it.
First pic doesn’t load on my screen. Second pic is the selfie after the vasectomy. Ouch!
Try again.
Still nothing. Will check on the computer later.
Should be fixed now.
Indeed, it is fixed like the guy un the second pic! Bubble cars, lol
Also, I agree with manufacturing being not great in America.
*Insert “workers are lazy, and productivity is low” Bice image here*
I’d argue we had explicit disincentives for capitalism in the covid squeeze. As in govt agencies would literally arrest you if you even tried to make money.
If demand is through the roof but you cant raise prices, the smart thing to do is soak the govt and make sure not to do anything that would get you in trouble or turn off the money spigot… Like make anything for a profit. Or at all!
I remember an article about the one US mask maker left. He wasn’t scaling up production at all because the hospitals wouldn’t commit to purchases. The last time he scaled up, had to fire all his workers 6 months later as everyone went back to buying chinese.
I just Googled it, and raising price on anything ‘essential’ (like medical supplies) is just straight illegal in a lot of places, and any price increase over 20% is assumed to be price gouging. Sometimes just being priced more than your competition is price gouging!
Paying US manufacturing costs to make Chinese mask money is a money loser.
“Underneath most major cities, especially in the USA in fact, there exist subterranean counterpart ‘cities’ controlled by the Masonic/hybrid/alien ‘elite’. Often surface/ subsurface terminals exist beneath Masonic Lodges, police stations, airports, and federal buildings of major cities … and even not so ‘major’ cities. The population ratio is probably close to 10% of the population (the hybrid military-industrial fraternity ‘elite’ living below ground as opposed to the 90% living above). This does not include the full-blood reptilian species who live in even deeper recesses of the Earth.
“Some of the major population centers were deliberately established by the Masonic/hybrid elite of the Old and New ‘worlds’ to afford easy access to already existing underground levels, some of which are thousands of years old. Considering that the Los Alamos Labs [in New Mexico] had a working prototype nuclear powered thermol-bore drill that could literally melt tunnels through the Earth at a rate of 8 mph 40 years ago, you can imagine how extensive these underground systems have become.
These sub-cities also offer close access to organized criminal syndicates, which operate on the surface. They have developed a whole science of ‘borgonomics’ through which they literally nickle-and-dime us into slavery via multi-leveled taxation, inflation, sublimation, manipulation, regulation, fines, fees, licenses… and the entire debt-credit scam which is run by the Federal Reserve and Wall Street.”

Icke makes a lot more sense through the lens of dream logic. And I’ve had no complaints about “The Trigger”.
COTM is my first Icke read. He was definitely ahead of his time and his gist is basically aligned with Tex’s–just substitute
“Demons” for “Reptilians”
“Melonheads” for “Aryan Kings”
“Neanderthals” for “Nordics”
etc
I believe he had his initial avalanche of insight during some sort of acid trip, or maybe he was seeing a psychic or something.
You know what’s funny? I’ve been wracking my brain for a fictional world that portrays the world of power and influence as I see it–an esoteric crime syndicate of anarchotyrannical vampires managing herds of victims with varying levels of Stockholm Syndrome–and all I can come up with is young adult fiction. It seems like in everything they’re either a hidden cabal of fringe black magicians or exoteric tyrants. Can you think of any fictional examples where the petty street gangs selling drugs, doing witchcraft, and abducting young women are being secretly managed from the top?
That story element is aesthetic “nutrition” as opposed to aesthetic “junk food”. It hits the spot and satisfies in a way that isn’t easily-explainable. It’s why RE4 resonated like it did.
>an esoteric crime syndicate of anarchotyrannical vampires managing herds of victims with varying levels of Stockholm Syndrome–and all I can come up with is young adult fiction.
Maybe all good fiction appeals to some youthful part of the soul. Degenerate modern adults don’t believe in those fairy tales. Gotta read Fifty Shades of Grey 4, pop a xanax, finish these tps reports then meet my coworkers fat wife for a round of empty sexual liasons and perhaps a carl’s jr hamburger or four.
(four hamburgers = quaternality)
Or maybe we’re conditioned by publishers to think that those beliefs are “childish”, and its kind of incumbent upon us that we stop believing these sorts of conspiracy theories upon becoming a “normal adult” who reads John Grisham books or whatever. Like because that element doesn’t appear in “grown-up” books by distinguished authors and prestigious publishing houses and whatnot, what we’re supposed to unconsciously takeaway is that its ‘unrealistic’.
Correction: the plot of Fire Force does have this.

DELET
The problem with every “theory”, not Edenism, is that it be here’s what; the bad people took over and they are trying to turn all the good people (everyone who is not the bad people aka the majority 99.99% of people on the planet…) on the planet into slaves, when as a matter of fact the “bad people” already created their slaves (tens)thousands of years ago and just be trying to bring them back into the fold where they are happy; push blocks or buy shit on credit having satanic mishmash sexual relations and other assorted satanic deviancies aka the 99.99% majority of the planet.
Even if david icke is almost right he is completely wrong because the unironic good people are maybe 1% of the total global population, which is still about 100 million neanderboons. the r-selected ooga booga sapes are not good people they aren’t even people they are manbearbonobopigs so when these good people spiritual leaders try to champion the cause of “MUH EVIL ELITE THE REST ARE GOOD PEOPLE” they cross the line of permanent gone-astray so much so satan can just kick back and relax laughing all the way ’til the sun exploding. tharded people loves championing this cause aka the redpilled people on the internet.
Without the global evil elite drumming the beat-for some reason they were all gone tomorrow; almost everyone on the planet would simple lay down and die on the spot with nobody telling them what to do or what to buy or if they should cut off their penis or not.
This is actually a “big problem” of there unironically being many different human species co-existing at the same time in the same space. Even CHYNA being 90+% han chinese needs a borgonizer to keep it together which says a lot about a lot of things.
We don’t have mandatory masks mandatory temperature scanners or mandatory military service for israel or mandatory penis-in-skincream nor any lockdown restrictions in swe but… again hers why david icke is wrong; nobody is rebelling because they were not bred to rebel, people can pushed into living in shithuts or sleeping rough on the ground like australian abbos, there is no limit because these manbearbonobopigs don’t be having one.
the melonboon is perfectly adapted to what he does so is the sape the thard and the thal
don’t wait ten years when you can get one today
