Nazi Germany: The 1943 Joseph Goebbels ‘Tatanic’ Film! (9.5.2023)

The film entitled ‘Titanic’ – is a 1943 Nazi German propaganda film made during World War II in Berlin by Tobis Productions for UFA. This lavish production depicts the catastrophic sinking of RMS Titanic in 1912 – and the massive lose of life this tragic event entailed! Despite the fact that there had already been a very good ‘silent’ movie produced in Germany during 1912 (just four weeks after the actual sinking) and that a British company had subsequently released a German-language film about the disaster in 1929 – the film was still commissioned by Joseph Goebbels – with the intent of showing not only the superiority of German filmmaking (whilst the regime was suffering debilitating military losses on all fronts), but also serve as a propaganda tool portraying Hitler’s lunatic ideas that it was British and American capitalism (controlled by what he termed ‘International Jewry’) that was responsible for the disaster!

Yellow Submarine: How the Beatles Invented Pyrhonesque Cartoons! (9.4,2023)  

As for its surface structure – I think that with the ‘Yellow Submarine’ we are seeing the essence of how the Monty Python team presented their ideas to the world! As Monty Python sketches are available all over the internet and streaming services – most people are better acquainted with this form of communication than they are with that seen in the ‘Yellow Submarine’! This tends to give the inverted notion that the Monty Python methodology came before the ‘Yellow Submarine’ – but we all know that this is not true! Just a quick perusal will demonstrate to the average viewer that Terry Gillian must have been inspired and motivated by The Beatles output and philosophical intent (which seems ‘Anarchic’ at this point and definitely ‘Existential’). The working-class norms that all four Beatles were brought up within are there – but so is the ‘freedom’ from this conditioning – and that’s all the ‘Yellow Submarine’ represents! The problem was the difficulty of psychologically conveying this ‘freedom’ whilst still being physically ‘stuck’ in exactly the material conditions assumed to have been thrown-off due to some type of superior insight! This is the ‘idealism’ of The Beatles! It was their millions of pounds which gave them an enhanced sense of ‘choice’ whilst living within a capitalist society. Immense wealth and success constituted the foundry within which the superstructure of the ‘Yellow Submarine’ was hammered out – whilst the imbibing of LSD was the bottle of Champaign (or non-descript ‘infrastructure’) that was smashed against its side – and which launched it into the stream of human consciousness! Do with it as you will.

Exposing the So-Called ‘Red China’ (Trotskyite) Network! (9.12.2022)

As an academic who is asked to look at (and comment on) 101 different things each day relating to ‘China’ – my attention was recently drawn to a laughable US attempt at manipulating Overseas Chinese people by establishing a ‘Trotskyite’ (Chinese language) website ‘pretending’ to be a ‘Maoist Resistance Movement’ to the Communist Party of China (CPC)! Here’s the twist – this capitalist-friendly, ‘White’ and US-derived Trotskyite piece of debris – is masquerading under the guise of a very poorly constructed idea of what a deluded and greed-riddled European mind ‘believes’ a ‘disgruntled’ Chinese ‘Resistance Movement’ to be! NO – the ‘Red China Network’ is anti-China ‘RACISM’ personified! One criticism I deliberately omitted in my (below) unanswered email was the inclusion by the ‘Red China Network’ of pro-Falun Gong Cult propaganda (amidst its peppering of Lenin’s work with Trotsky’s contradictory comments)! Those that read my writings regularly will already know that this is my ‘Speciality’ subject – with the bulk of my anti-Falun Gong Cult work being freely accessible HERE! This inclusion by the so-called ‘Red China Network’ is so damning and revealing that I was leaving the mentioning of it as an incredibly effective and damaging counter-right cross (as seen in Western Boxing) – should the US (White) spotty teenagers that administer this government funded aberration decided to be ‘feisty’ in their denial of my exposure!
