Attack the System- Xi is out of options 1st December 2022Nicholas Carlson, December 1, 2022 Hello, Insiders. Earlier this week, Merriam-Webster revealed their word of the year: gaslighting. It’s clearly an important and relevant term, but I have another one for you: ultracrepidarian. If you’re unfamiliar, it pertains to someone who “criticizes, judges, or gives advice […]Keith Preston

- Dying in the light 29th November 2022‘Democracy dies in darkness’ is on the masthead of the Washington Post. They say it as if it is their fear, but they behave as if it is their hope (for example, when hiding the story of Hunter Biden’s laptop). One thing it isn’t (yet) is literal fact. Despite the efforts of many, there’s still […]Niall Kilmartin (Stirling)

- Systems indoctrinate, deprecate questioning and doubt, produce reactive citizens, and blame them(An extension of a few points I mentioned in this video concerning education.) So-called educational systems teach young students what to believe, how to behave, and perhaps skills deemed necessary—not to question.

Roger Ebert’s Thunderdome review mentioned the insane fashion, saying something like “It seems that between scavenging for food and fighting, the survivors have just enough free time to come up with new punk hairstyles.”
The only issue I have is that he should’ve used bodybuilders and circus freaks as his models.
Haha – yeah! The end of the world is the beginning of style!
And for sheer seven-scarred shamelessness, Galliano really should’ve gone for pro-wrestlers and bodybuilders – Fist of the North Star extras ftw!
If this is really going to be the new fashion for the winter, well you better get used to calling me a FASHION-POSER cuz I’m going to be all on it.
