GALLOMANIA.

LenHazell53 comments on Oct 9, 2021:

The Alpha Galates (France First) founded in 1934 by George Monti was a secret society, that in all but name was the French nazi party. Reformed in 1942 by Pierre Plantard as an anti semitic party, it was banned by the occupying Germans as being too bent on Gallomania and French nationalism. Alpha Galates reemerged some little time later in the Vichy free French republic under the name of The Prieuré de Sion translated as Priory of Sion (Sion being the Gallic version of the name of St. John The Baptist as opposed to the modern French Jean Baptiste) an order that (though officially disbanded in 1956) still exists today, promoting "intrinsically French" values and customs, such as racial purity, nationalist superiority and hatred of all semitic races (though these days more Arabs than Jews).

The association with women came later when it was applied to both Eve and Lilith the wives of Adam and the bringers of misery in to the world whose nagging of Adam in to disobedience resulted in the expulsion (of man) from paradise.

After many adventures and being apparently cured, Zelig becomes a celebrity and war hero but in an ironic metaphysical twist is last seen in the back ground of his own biographical film, as an extra in his own life story.

LenHazell53 comments on Sep 23, 2021:

A French pronunciation of the German word Knödel meaning dumpling which in itself is a Deutsche rending of the Asian Noodle. It is also a euphemism for a suppository, owing to it's similar shape. French comedian Dieudonné M'bala M'bala used the gesture originally as a fictional salute used by early 20th century secularist in a comedy sketch and was meant to represent secularists shared suffering of the catholic church's fondness for shoving hot pokers and other things up the bottoms of those who opposed them during the inquisition, in his sketch it is copied from a dolphin who is being forced to convert to catholicism. Ironically it was the Jews themselves who made a public outcry about M'bala M'bala's gesture claiming it was an "Inverted Nazi Salute" that lead to the Anti-zionist party of France adopting it as their salutation before being its being co-opted by the French National front as a generally anti-Semitic one. As Father Ted might say Feckin' Quenelle The word has no connection with the French homophone Quinella which is a form of five aside football, and in horse racing a five race bet placed on a jockey rather than a horse.

Much of it a hold over from the opium wars of 1839–1842 and 1856–1860 and the Taiping Rebellion 1850-1864 and Dungan Revolt 1862–1877 that lead to irresponsible British and French interference in the Asian trade, the weakening of the Qing dynasty and the Chinese imperial government making opportunist war almost inevitable.

The populations of the USA to some degree and the UK to a much greater one have somnambulated in to oppression by common consent. The technique is simple and follows a political doctrine that dates back to the days of monarchy. You create a problem, provoke a reaction and then offer a solution that while being unthinkable in "normal" times is preferable to the threatened consequence of doing nothing. Do it correctly and people will beg you to take away their freedoms in order to feel safe from a non-existent threat. Look for instance at the burning of the reichstag, almost certainly carried out by the German Nazi party, but blamed on Jewish/communist revolutionaries and whipped up in to a frenzied witch hunt, the result? A populist movement demanding the suspension of civil liberties, he founding of what would become the SS and a mass misconception that "Our way of life" is under threat from a communist, Jewish conspiracy thats needed to be stamped out for the sake of freedom and the return of such freedoms as had been necessarily taken away. Within a year Hitler had become chancellor without an election and the decree of dictatorship had been enacted.

JAUNTING CAR.

LenHazell53 comments on Sep 16, 2021:

A complex word with a complicated history. It had all but passed out of use altogether until Science Fiction legend Alfred Bester used it as a word for Teleportation in his series of intergalactic travel novels beginning with " The Stars My Destination (1956)". Since when it has become common place in works by the likes of Stephen King and Roger Price. The word is an English derivation of "gentil" Old French for "a noble". In the Tradion of the Nobility the young "Gentil homme" would in early adulthood venture out on the "Grande Tour" a right of passage that involved traveling throughout Europe to become familiar with "Real life". The partaker in the "Grande Tour" was known as a Gentee, pronounced in English as Jaunty. In time a Jaunt became a short trip of any sort and a Jaunty man was some one dressed for travel and glamorous clothes. Hence a Jaunting Car, a pleasure carriage, later in the USA changed to Jalopy

People forget how the raised arm salute was very common prior to its adoption by the German Nazi party. It was believed (incorrectly) to be the salutation of the Roman Empire, thank mainly to a few painters of the Italian renascence period. The same can be said for the hakenkreuz which was used in heraldry as a symbol for light, in Hinduism as a sun sign and in the Catholic Church as the symbol of St. Michael. Until that is Hitler made it his flag, and the British propaganda machine renamed it from the hakenkreuz (hooked cross) to the Swastika (A Sanskrit mystic's word "svastika" meaning luck or fortune in the sense of an omen or a prophesy) to make it sound more evil.
