What conspiracy theories do you believe in? - Put your tinfoil hats on

[Dr. Eldon Tyrell]

Japan has a strong social undercurrent of anti-Semitism but without anything like the murderous intent they had towards, for example, the Chinese.

Yeah, they're kinda based with their intolerance: you can tell, some of the older ones would basically kill blonde, blue eyed americans on sight, if they could but will light up and fawn over you as soon as you speak german or rather, say you are german - it's not like they can tell your engrish is heavy on the consonants.
I think they have a similar, naive thing for the french.
And I'm sure, the true yamato damashi types will merrily murder all of us before thinking about jews.
Just because jews never directly slighted them in their mind.
But if push came to shove, these kinds of japanese people read others only barely as even human, realtive to themselves.
It's kinda neat that they don't go by race as much as europeans do, if only because they see all others as subhuman.

Telegony in humans is a real thing, and research is being neglected/"ignored" due to its implications of if people knew this to be true, it would be detrimental for feminism. I find it odd that the first thing Google gives me is a statement box that reads "Telegony is a disproven theory" and Wikipedia is just a long historical deboonk meme and doesn't go into the topic itself. It's really a weird kind of censorship around this topic which makes me believe there is something to it.

I also think that most DNA tests are fake. Not the technique itself, but the results of them are probably faked (so they don't do them in the first place...), like in court cases for evidence (framing people that seems most convenient, faked fatherhood tests to match the mothers story etc).
> bruh the test said it's you and it's irrefutable
It's a "one tool to settle it all" thing. It's so much trust in a tool that most people don't understand which makes me really question how much of all these "tests" are just made up. Just to make people not question the judge, when they pick the most convenient "result" to end a case in favor for the most cheapest option for the system.

TL;DR
Most public knowledge about DNA is fake and gay.

So in short, it's possible if you marry and have kids with a woman who already had children, that "your" kids won't actually be yours. Or that at the least, the previous father would contribute more to their traits than you?

Personally that still sounds really far-fetched.

I've always wondered if Soviet-style censorship & disinformation tactics were shared with Western powers once the Iron Curtain fell.
I say this because I keep seeing more and more people nowadays draw comparisons between the censorship of speech & control of information in communist states and the state of Western media (in all aspects. MSM, social media, etc.)
I can see where the comparison comes from, but it's an interesting comparison to make now when we have had a nearly century-long Cold War between the East and West.

Freemasons also used the swastika, although less so now. It used to be such a standard symbol that if you have an old Mason's Lodge building, you'll often see them in the decorative carvings in the stonework. It's usually slightly different than the Nazi swastika because the arms after the bend are curved and concentric with the circle around it.

The Freemasons also used the Star of David a lot.

It's a pretty interesting article, going into historical preservationists vs. people with Swastika Derangement Syndrome near the end.

When you look up Smith-Mundt, you'll get a "FACT CHECK" pushed as a highly ranked result on Bing, but I remember reading about it on boingboing when it was news. They used the Michael Hastings Buzzfeed article as their source, and this was back when left-leaning sites were more mistrustful of government propaganda, even under Obama.
Other timely articles, from Business Insider, The Atlantic, and Foreign Policy, were also skeptical, or at least acknowledged the obvious spin put on the act by its shills.

Yeah, about that: our local lodge, seemingly, only has stars of david.
I know they have different "currents" or "schools".
Has whichever symbol they favor meaning pertaining to that?

I actually don't know but some ex-Mason has probably leaked it if they don't publicly say.

R Kelly wrote about Diddy's freak-offs in Ignition (Remix).

The third verse specifically mentions bringing men AND women together with food everywhere as if it was catered (drugs, baby oil) for an after-after party at a hotel where they'd "take em to a room and f-- someBODY".

I just made this up upon listening to a podcast talk in detail about the Diddy case and although it did not mention R Kelly, I just know in my heart he was absolutely at these parties.

Just a quick idle question, is it possible to have both a seizure and a stroke at the same time?

Yes, why?

R Kelly

You’re all going to laugh at me but is the R in his name name supposed to be a play on ‘our ’ like in the north of England? Manchester in particular there’s a form of possessive reference, so if you were talking about your cousin Kelly you’d say ‘our Kelly did so and so…’ it’s a Manchester accent so it’s pronounced R instead of our. Like ‘R kid’ instead of our kid. ‘our…’ means ‘the person I’m about to mention is family or v close.’
And if it’s not which I’m sure it isn’t because that would just be weird, what’s it supposed to mean?

 

[The Foxtrot]

Yes, why?

Just curious, because Google wasn't giving me a straight answer.

I figured there was more to it than simply "Telegony is real!".

Its pretty simple, his name is Robert Kelly so R. Kelly. Just sounds better I guess

That’s very funny then, because to someone where I’m from it sounds like one of Oasis whinging.

While I don't necessarily believe the Tengu Jew theory, a while ago I ran into something that that theory reminded me of. I saw a site that talked about how this Japanese snack called mochi was make of non-risen dough because of possible influences of Jews and Passover. I tried to find the site recently but I can't find it again.

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

The forced destruction of popular media.

If you haven't heard about the disaster that was Joker 2 have a read of the thread here, it's a hoot. The TL;Dr is that it's fucking crap, to the point where most people assume the movie was a spite movie (in the vein of a Spite house) people who enjoyed the first. However, it got me thinking about other 'spite' sequels and series and I realised that this happened for a while and I think I know why...

A quick rundown of shows I can think off, off of the top of my head, that had terrible final seasons or penultimate seasons, going against what the characters, universe and tone of the show were going for:

Lost - Went from must-see-TV and weekly viewing, back when we all huddled around the idiotbox as a family, turned into a disaster of plot twists that were so poor that they became a joke. The show in retrospect lost (ironic) its' appeal and died, never to be heard from again.

Dexter - A show enjoyed mainly by crime obsessed women but not without its' charms. Audiences were intrugued by the lead bad guy - Dexter, until the last season where it pisses in the face of fans.

Game of Thrones - Winter is coming for seven seasons, the greatest threat to the living, ended quicker than a fight with homeless nomads by a girl who can slowtime-super-feels-bad-arse-action-yeaahhhh an ending.

Alf - Captured by the government and ends up in a lab.

The list goes on: (I browsed the net for these, some I haven't seen)

• X-files
• Sienfeld
• Pretty little liars
• The walking dead
• Medium
• How I met your mother
• Quantum Leap
• Sopranos
• Will and Grace
• Killing Eve
• House of Cards
• Battlestar Gallactica
• My Name is Earl
• And on and on and on

Why then, are these series killed so badly, ended so poorly, that it hurts the show in retrospect? Bad writing? Perhaps. Pissed off actors sick of playing a character? Maybe. Directors who hate their audience? There's a good chance.
My theory? The reason the shows are ruined in retrospect is to stop you watching it again. With all of the Hollywood slop getting worse and worse as the years roll by, why would you subject yourself to shite when the series' mentioned above would give you years' worth of rewatchable entertainment.
Why pay shekels to subscripe to Goyflix or Slopney+ ? You wouldn't need to.

This idea doesn't end at films or TV. Games are delisted and remastered, worse than their original versions. RPG and 'endlessly' replayable single-player games that were once a staple of the industry are pushed aside for autistic lootbox games and forgettable, 'flavour of the month' multiplayer online slop.

If the studios can't stop you from pirating, sharing or buying DVDs cheap at the second=hand tat shop, then they will ruin the series so fucking badly that even thinking of rewatching Game of Thrones kills the concept in the crib.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

Most of these aren't things I watched, other than Dexter (which I also quit watching well before its openly fan-hating season) and X-Files, where I was disgusted by not only even trying to continue it after Duchovny leaving but definitely after the super-shark-jump of having him fuck Scully when one of the core themes of the entire show was their perpetually unrequited love.

I mean Mulder was canonically a stereotypical coomer with giant mountains of porn in his gooncave.

You can't just have them fuck. Or if you do, it has to be an end of the entire series thing.

 

[Screamer_2]

The first Joker movie sucked. I get that plenty of people liked it, but that's my opinion. While I don't doubtt politics and shit played into some choices made. It's far more likely that the director was high on his own ego, that far outweighed his talent and he made a shit film. The first film was well outside his established wheelhouse, but he made a success. He probably just jumped further and so when it missed it was a harder fall.

The actual destruction of popular media is just went the activists take over a brand and make absolute shit. For reference, see what has happened with a lot of modern Star Wars. A lot of those TV shows just ended with bad writing, cancellations, bad ideas or not knowing what to do.

Even with shit like Star Wars, Velma, Ghostbuster women and others. It's people with no fucking idea who think the IP will do the heavy lifting. Then they think identity politics and other non-sense is important over actually having stories, characters or good ideas. The way Hollywood works now is you give your pitch on how your show deals with issues, politics and social justice. Not why it's a compelling story people want to see.


Game of Thrones: They were better at adapting material than taking charge, the thinner the material from unfinished books were, the more they had to rely on themselves they struggled. They also just wanted to be done with doing the show and their ego wouldn't let them pass it on to other writers. HBO was willing to keep the show going, but they wanted to wrap it up and move on to other projects.

LOST: They promoted the show on being cleverer than they were. That everything was scientifically plausible when they were writing fantasy. I'm sure to some extent plans and ideas went astray. It was also an era when TV was still going 20+ episodes a year and they were moving into serialised content. They were probably moving too fast to really think things through and everything got away from them. There's a reason seralised shows are not made this way anymore. Although there's a lot of problems with how many are written today.

The big issue with LOST is that the 5th season finale would have served as a better final episode as it was ambiguous. While the finale episode of the show was actually decent. The final season was a complete mess because they'd started so many plots and didn't find a way to end enough of them. They actually should have wrapped up a lot of plots and mysteries in season 5, where the time travel aspect would naturally of allowed it. Instead they jettisoned most in season 6 to tell a new story of the backstory of the island, peppered through some answers. They also clearly were writing that season constantly changing where they thought it was going. The last episode was so much better than it should have been given the mess of that final season.

Alf: Wasn't the show cancelled, so that final was meant to be a cliff hanger?

Dexter: The show had ups and downs. The final season in my opinion was on tract as a good conclusion of the 8 year arc and allowed Dexter to shed his dark passenger. Clearly someone at the end chickened out. They didn't want a happy ending for the serial killer character. They also didn't want to kill him so they could do more. So the undid the entire character development of the entire series in the final 5 minutes. A mess. I never watched the revival season, but that sounded like a mess where they couldn't quite get passed the concept of the show and had to be dumb. I don't know why, but I may check out the prequel series. They're also undoing the revival show with a new series I think...

Sienfeld: it was fine, I get what they were doing. This hasn't aged poorly and the Curb stuff ads to it.

The Walking Dead: Eh, it is peaks and valleys. I dropped off in the covid years. It was still entertaining. The key was to just binge watch when the current block of episodes ended. Not to watch week to week.

Killing Eve: It was always over rated. It was a few good episodes then went to shit in the first season and never recovered. Why people hung onto watching it I don't know. It was the kind of show that almost became like a virtue signal that people watched it.

How I Met Your Mother: This was simply a show that had an ending when it was created that ran long enough that the ending no longer made sense but they still stuck with it. They then fumbled the execution because they stuck with how the show had naturally grown right up until the end and then speed run to the original ending. Which undid character arcs and never allowed the satisfaction of how he met their mother.

House of Cards: We know what happened, it wasn't the intentional killing of the show. Spacey was accused, they ditched him and went full retard.

Battlestar Galactica: Whether or not they always planned it, they added too much magic and space gods shit which ungrounded the writing in a sense of reality. It always had the religion stuff, but once they brought in miracles and anything could happen. They had magic and fantasy to fall back on as a crutch. So it just became nonsense.

Thanks for the added breakdown. The common theme seems to be "writers went full retard". Either good writers are extremely hard to find, or going full retard is an acceptable part of the plan. These studios can't read the scripts and think "This series-ruining ending is totally fine and won't bankrupt syndication, this is fine".

Going full retard isn't always their fault. Tight production schedules and deadlines is often an issue. Another issue is that they get too comfortable and relaxed writing a show. The writers don't question themselves and their instincts as much.

Look at It's Always Sunny. That used to be a full-time job for those guys. Now every couple of years they slap together a writer's room. Even including non-screen writers. Just crank out 8 scripts in a month or two. A couple of good episodes, the rest feel under baked, like first drafts. It's not so much they are lazy, they just think they know how to do it, that they don't question themselves or put the effort in.

Not to derail this into Screamer's screen writing rant. One of the big reasons most things suck these days is that back in the past there were lots of shows cranking out 20+ episodes a year. In the 60s it wasn't uncommon for over 30 episodes a year. The entire run of the old Adam West Batman show was 104 weeks from the first episode airing to the last. There were 120 episodes.

Back when they cranked out episodes they needed to be skilled writers. You got into the industry on these shows. Learnt and got mentored in story telling and character. It was a trade, it was a craft. That's not how it happens these days. You just need to have been on a writing staff for a show doing a small run season for a couple of seasons and get hired on your social justice pitch. Then write an 8 episode season with less story ideas than what would have been a single episode of Stargate Atlantis.

I believe, no joke, that The Process Church Of The Final Judgment created the Best Friends Animal Society to push the idea that pitbulls are family dogs so that more children and animals could be 'sacrificed' by the violent dogs.
This is 100%, no bullshit, fucking real.
