Conspiracies

I have to confess that I really enjoy conspiracy theories. It’s not that I believe them but I find them entertaining. And I don’t mean the Who Shot JFK variety but the explanation of the world type. You know, the New World Order, Illuminati, Masons Rule The World, Black Helicopter, and laundry gnomes. Pick any conspiracy theory like those and read about them. You won’t be disappointed. It is amazing the level of detail that true believers will get into. Seriously, they go into great detail to explain things and, sometimes, they almost make sense More importantly, they’re darn entertaining. I think there’s a market for taking any of them and making a movie or TV mini-series about them. The latest, which I’d read a while back at Knoxblab, is about a time traveler from the future who details the collapse of our society and civil war.

So, go read about John Titor, time traveler from the future with a message. Here’s a timeline of things.

    Ah yes, Mr Shotgun Brigade. Wow, in the future war against them city folk, the righteous country folk are gonna organize entire brigades worth of people who’s main firearms will peter out at about 100 yards. Great tactical sense… for cannon fodder.

    Check out the amazing bending laser pointer too, pretty good photoshopping.

    “explanation of the world type”

    Cool vocabulary word: theomachy. It means a fight among the gods, but in practice it’s used to describe hidden events and forces that affect the lives of men. James Franklin:

    Kuhn’s success is also an instance of the enduring appeal of theomachy, a mode of explanation which worked so brilliantly for Marx and Freud, and, long before, for Homer. What was previously thought to be a continuous and uninteresting succession of random events is discovered to be a conflict of a finite number of hidden gods (classes, complexes, paradigms, as the case may be), who manipulate the flux of appearances to their own advantage, but whose machinations may be uncovered by the elect to whom the key has been revealed.

    Titor is one of my favorite theories. I have read a good bit of the comments that he left when he was in out time.

    If there is no 2008 olympics, i would read a good bit more of this stuff and buy more guns.

    […] 3 – The movies suck. Hollywood is out of ideas. They remade The Dukes of Fucking Hazzard, for crying out loud. Nothing original, it’s all been done. They’re all remakes or novel adaptations. Do something interesting. Not only are they getting content from things already done, they’re re-doing some of it in the same format: at the movie (like King Kong). Here’s and idea plucked fresh from my website: Find the most complex, attention getting conspiracy theory and make a movie out of it. Seriously, New World Order, black helicopters, John Titor, pick one. Sure, they’re so far-fetched but, dammit, they’re entertaining. Is it sad that I’d rather read the ramblings of crazy people and scam artists than go to a damn movie. […]

  5. SayUncle » Huh? Says:

    […] Now, this stuff seems a bit too black-helicpoterish to me and I know nothing about the source. But, I love me some conspiracy theories. Sadly, I cant’ say I find it entirely unbelievable. After all, the FBI once issued some propaganda that classified folks who ‘quote the Constitution’ as potential terrorists. There’s some video I’ve not been able to watch. Probably crazy talk but interesting. […]

  6. SayUncle » The Airing of Grievances: TeeVee Says:

    […] You guys should fire everyone who writes for you now and go hire some random chump off the street. TeeVee people are completely devoid of original thought these days. There’s always my idea, if you’re desperate. And you are. […]

  7. SayUncle » More proof Says:

    […] they’ll make a movie about anything. Guaranteed to suck. My idea for a movie would sell, […]

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
