When does RT reporting of opinion become propaganda?

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 31, 2022:

Propaganda is basically the publishing of lies, and as has often been stated for a lie to be believable it must contain a portion of truth, but truth with a heavy "spin" on it. Even in the most biased of news if you can winkle out the truth within the lie, you can easily see the spin, if that is you want the truth, rather than want to believe the convenient lie you have been peddled.

This hilarious but in a reply to another I had to find what a group of Lemmings is called.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 30, 2022:

In 1958 the fledgling Disney studios made a wildlife documentary titled "White Wilderness". It featured many indigenous creatures but Walt himself gave the director James Algar orders that he was to film a Lemming mass suicide. The legend of the lemmings killing themselves had been around for a few years but no one had ever recorded it. Walt wanted his studio to be the first record of the phenomena. Agar eventually did succeed in finding a colony of migrating lemmings, but oddly they seemed to want to do nothing but eat mate and sleep and had no intention of leaping to their deaths. When Agar reported this to "uncle" Walt and gave him the financial costs of keeping a film crew on standby for weeks on end Mr. Disney almost blew a gasket, and gave an order that went down in the annals of Hollywood infamy. The next day many of the Canada living in the area where surprised to see a group of 15 Disney employees chasing the lemmings with yard brushes up to the top of a cliff and literally sweeping them off the precipice and in to Atlantic ocean as Disney cameramen tried desperately to film the suicide while keeping the murders off camera. White Wilderness won the Oscar for best documentary in 1959 and the horror story was not revealed until the CBC Television news magazine program The Fifth Estate broadcast a documentary about animal cruelty in Hollywood in 1982 called "the cruel camera," exposing Disney and other studios common practice of torturing and killing animal for "entertainment" purposes, leading to the "No animals were hurt" disclaimer being added to films from that point on. Disney tried to sue CBC but Walt was long since dead and many including Agar were willing to confirm that the lemming migration and suicide was indeed completely faked and was in fact mass murder.

Uranus is an odd planet with a funny name.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 30, 2022:

There are a number odd things about the planet Firstly it is the only one NOT named after a Roman god Uranus or Ouranos is an ancient primordial Greek Titan who holds up the dome of the sky, similar to that later Atlas or the Roman god Caelum. Its single ring orbits pole to pole rather than an equatorial orbit as they do around Saturn. It has 27 moon some of which orbit ridiculous close to the surface of the planet and again unlike almost every other moon in the solar system they are not named for ancient roman gods and deities but for Shakespeare characters and two for characters from the poems of Pope. Uranus is the 3rd largest planet in the solar system but is second lightest, indicating it is an ice giant, with a surface made of frozen gasses, mainly hydrogen and helium, making it the coldest planet in our system, far colder than even the recently demoted Pluto.

NAMBY-PAMBY.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 30, 2022:

It has for a while been my opinion that nambi-pambi is actually an early euphamisism for male homosexuality. It has become associated with Philip Ambrose, but I believe the fact Ambrose's is superficially similar to the amby in both words of the phrase is coincidental. Ambi- is a Latin prefix meaning both sides and this in turn comes from the Proto indo European ant-bhi meaning front and back. According to ancient legend Hermes and Aphrodite were so in love that they prayed never to be parted, but in a cruel joke the other gods combined them in to one being, female on the front male of the back, so that they could never see one another or ever make love, this abomination was given the name Hermaphrodite and sometimes the ambisexual Therefore in pigeon Latin/Greek Namby-Pambi is N-ambi Null ambi not either way (but) P-ambi (pan=)all ways He is Namby Pamby neither way and every way. Just a thought

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 29, 2022:

Much of what people call intuition is no such thing, it is the workings of the unconscious drawing on memories and experience and extrapolating likely outcomes. Elsewise it is instinct, survival trait we are born with and which operate at a genetic level. It is the misinterpretation of these unconscious extrapolations and instincts that many people mistake for religious experience, miracles and faith promoting experiences. There need not be a paranormal explanation for anything the conscious mind finds inexplicable the human body and brain are capable of so much more than we realise at a waking level.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 29, 2022:

The actual story is of The Lambton Worm and originates from my home town of Stockton on Tees, where there is still a pub called the Lambton Castle, with shine board showing the "Wyrm". Bram Stoker wrote the tale while recuperating from syphilis and staying in Stockton, he later moved to Whitby 30 miles up the road and on the coast, where he wrote Dracula. Ken Russels film Lair of the White Worm, has little to do with Stoker's novella, and even less to do with his own script. The film was seized by Vestron studios, edited down by an hour and turned in to an incoherent mess ( for instance at one point Peter Capaldi produces a Mongoose from under his kilt with no explanation whatsoever to drive off a snake monster. Because an entire scene with a herpetologist was cut out to save time) There are rumours of a directors cut, but so far it has never surfaced and since Ken Russell died in 2011 it likely never will. Amanda Donohoe is beautiful though and carries the film.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 29, 2022:

It is a fundamental misunderstanding of the idea of what freedom of speech and expression actually means. It does not mean that everyone has the right to say and do whatever the fuck they want to, it never has. It does not mean a citizen has all of the rights but none of the concomitant responsibilities that being a citizen entails. It does not mean a citizen is suddenly immune from the consequences of their speech and action, if fact it means exactly the opposite, one can say whatever one wants, but one will be responsible for such speech or action and for the ramifications resulting. A person who choses to use the right of free speech and expression to break existing laws or to slander another will be subject to that same law, but can be condemned for doing so, be arrested tried and punished for doing so as is their right too.

MELEE.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 29, 2022:

IN medieval England the Grande Mêlée was the climax of a day of jousting and tournaments and was basically a destruction derby for Knights. The contestants armed and armoured themselves went in to the arena and fought with blunted weapons until only one knight was left standing. It was common for contestants to die but this was seen as a good thing and a way of weeding out the old, the weak and the incompetent.

How ever when it written down for them, people had no problem directing the removal van to "S'b-ram" A Norman name being read and pronounced as they see it correctly by Jute descended people.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 27, 2022:

If it brings you comfort to speculate on such thing that is all well and good. If you wish to believe that your cumulative experiences and knowledge will somehow be preserved after your physicality is exhausted, that is fine, I hope that too which is why I write and compose and try and produce something creative every day, to just hope that such knowledge and experience will save itself to me, seem rather lazy. If you want to believe these things and that faith (make no mistake what you are talking about is Faith, not energy, not spirituality it IS old fashion religious FAITH) helps you cope with life, well fine but ***be cautious.*** Because if you begin to fear, and you grow angry owing to that fear, when people try and put to you other opinions you have a problem, because you have once again become religious. A private and self aware religion, but religious none the less. If you begin to persecute and hate because of other opinions, and even find yourself abandoning reason in favour of violence and or negativity you have become a crusader, and that is not a compliment, crusaders were and are dangerous people for whom reason has no meaning and facts are no longer truth. So if you decide to continue on this path, instead of following that which brought you out of religion and the worship of none existent god(s) to its logical conclusion, BE VERY CAREFUL not to become the very thing you dismissed as a bad and negative part of your former life, not worth preserving. Good luck.

The next day I said to her, ‘Give up your son so we may eat him,’ but she had hidden him.” Deuteronomy 28:53 Because of the suffering your enemy will inflict on you during the siege, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters the LORD your God has given you.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 26, 2022:

In the 16th century William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk was known as a a rogue and rioteer who in his youth "studied" in Naples until he was deported for hi debauchery. Once back in England he became known as the Jack of Naples for his continued bad behaviour. It has been suggested that Conan Doyle based his horrendous Lord Hugo Baskerville upon the Duke. What is certain is that his distant decedent Henry de la Poer Beresford Marquis of Waterford carried on his disreputable ancestors tradition taking the name Jack (a naughty boy) for himself and companions when they terrorised London in the 1890 as Spring Heeled Jack. Jack of Naples over time was shortened to Jack O' Naples and then became a circus act consisting of either a man in an ape suit or an actual Ape dress up as "His Lord Ship" being humiliated for the delight of traveling show, carnival audiences as "The Jackanape" Later the Jackanape or Jackonape became the companion of barrel organ grinders on street corners trained to collect money. In the 20th century the word had simple become an epithet for people behaving idiotically

I am not offended by people believing in the Christian god, I am insulted and disgusted by it. This is because as such they are living in either wilful ignorance or in a self-serving deception in order to virtue signal. Either way the Christian god demands of its followers missionary work and the spreading of its cult to the "unenlightened" a very rude and insulting principle. As such they believe that people who disagree with them are worthy of eternal punishment for the sin of disrespecting their imaginary friend. As such, though some may deny it, they tacitly support and condone sexism, homophobia, racism, the persecution of the differently able and demand exceptions from the law in order to comply with such beliefs. As such they present as a loving gift to their own children and family a book as a gift that condones slavery and even provides rules for the punishing of, conning of, beating of and eugenic breeding of other human beings. A book that openly orders the murdering of "the profane", dictates diet, encourages shunning, countenances rape and child rape, bodily mutilation of infants and promises in the "great" times to come a never ending theocracy and wholesale slaughter of all who object. No I am not offended when such people are the final word in all matters of law and order in a nation state… I am fucking terrified!

The third nun is a very old and slightly dotty mother superior, she steps forward and says "Hello John Lennon" "Oh no" thinks the second nun, "We've all had it now" "Here is your question mother," says the Lord.

(it later came to mean a town of the area surrounding a town, often shortened Brough, Boro or Burgh in Scotland.) The other word is Yarr (yar or eor), meaning organised, well prepared or more commonly today in the navy terminology as Shipshape and battle ready. So Yarborough literally means a Well Fortified castle town

If he ignores the subpoena, he will be in contempt of congress, if he tries to do a Lindsey Graham and tries to legally quash the summons he will fail, if he goes to the committee he will not be able to keep his mouth shut and will effectively put the noose around his own neck or will plead the 5th to every question and make it obvious he is guilty and he knows it.

The TV series Up Pompeii! was directly influenced by this film and Zero Mostel was sought to play the lead, however he was to busy to work in the UK, so the part went to Frankie Howerd instead. He also turned down the lead in the film version Fiddler on the Roof, after winning many accolades for his stage performance in the part, this time being replaced by Topol. His other most famous role as the crooked producer Max Bialistock in Mel Brook's the Producers lead to the remake being dedicated to him in 2005 Sadly Zero died in 1977 at the age of 62 years young shortly after starring with his friend Woody Allen in "The Front" playing a blacklisted Hollywood actor in the House Un-American Activities Committee era, a fate that had actually befallen Zero in 1952 crippling his career for 7 years.

Cockney rhyming slang, Scarper/ Scapa flow = Go Scapa Flow was a military Harbour in Scotland, where after WW1 the entire German fleet was ordered to be interned. The German navy however, fearing their ships would be used by the British to take revenge on Germany, on the orders of Admiral Ludwig von Reuter, skuttled their entire fleet of warships and U Boats, destroying all but twenty two of the smaller ships and boats, which were saved by the British by beaching them. Hence the cockney rhyme to scarper, to run away from one's responsibilities and liabilities Scappare is also the Italian word for escape and may have some baring on the etymology.

vitious intermitter: Someone who gets involved in a situation (usually legal) without a good excuse.

Vitious means... cruel, thuggish or of wicked intent Latin vitiosus / vitium "fault" An Intermitter is one who interferes to halt the flow of events either temporarily or permanently So therefore on who interferes with malicious or false intent, to buy time or confuse matters pretty much a definition of the Trump legal team

I used to think so too, until I was introduced to the Hammer film "The Witches" 1966 based on the 1960 novel "The Devil's Own" by Norah Lofts, AKA Peter Curtis. This older film had a huge influence on Shaffer's screen play for The Wickerman (which he claimed was based on the 1967 Novel by David Pinner "Ritual" it is not and Pinner has disassociated himself from the film), When I say influenced I am being kind, Shaffer lifted the plot, many elements such as the poppet doll in the graveyard and whole sections of dialog verbatim from "The Witches" SPOILERS The Witches was the last film of Joan Fontaine, who as Gwen Mayfield is an ex nun, recruited to become a teacher in a remote Scottish school, after she returns from Africa and is questioning her faith because of experiences with ritual shamanic magic. Miss Mayfield comes to realise that a child who was supposed to be in her class has disappeared and the whole village is conspiring to pretend she never existed. However the spirit of missing child begins appearing to the teacher, appealing for help, which eventually leads Gwen to uncover the fact that the whole village is part of a witch cult that sacrifices virgins to their Satanic master and the girl is to be the next victim at the next full moon. The Teacher finds her way in to the underground crypt to rescue the child be finds she has been tricked in to coming voluntarily to the place of sacrifice, still a pure virgin priestess willing to give her life to save the girl. This is the point were the stories diverge Police Sergeant Neil Howie in the Wickerman is sacrificed, but Gwen realizing her purity is necessary cuts herself and smears blood on the satanic alter revealing she is not a virgin but succumbed to lust, which is why she left the convent. The impure blood smears on the chief witch and marks her as responsible for the failure of the ritual, allowing the devil to seize her soul. Gwen saves the girl in the confusion and escapes as the witch queen crumbles to dust.

Halloween AKA Hallow e'en originally All Hallows Eve or All saints day eve IS a Christian festival that co-opted the date (more or less) of Samhain (pronounced Sow'en) a movable festival (ending at Easter another pagan festival) signifying the beginning and end of "Dark half" of the year. In the same way Christmas stole the date of Yule/ Mithras day thieving ignorant bastards these Christians.
