The iconic heavy metal band Megadeth never shied away from controversial and politically charged lyrics. With album names such as Killing Is My Business…and Business Is Good!, Youthanasia, The System Has Failed and United Abominations it is not difficult to see that the leader of the group David Mustaine has strong opinions about lots of things and is not afraid to share them in his songs. Among his favorite topics: the vileness of the military-industrial complex, the hypocrisy of world politics and the brainwashing of [...]

The following video has absolutely nothing to do with the contents of this site, yet I feel it needs to be there. “Alone in the Wilderness” is the story of Dick Proenneke living in the Alaska wilderness in 1968. He filmed his adventures and day-to-day life using a 8mm camera and a tripod. The footage, along with the contents of his journals, were put together in a fascinating documentary.

Here’s a great documentary describing how children are studied, dissected and manipulated by corporate entities using all kinds of underhanded methods.

Drawing on the insights of health care professionals, children’s advocates, and industry insiders, [...]

Despite the interest groups that are looking to co-opt the movement (or have co-opted, I don’t know) and opportunistic public figures who go there for PR, there are real issues at stake here. Here’s an interesting (and very entertaining) interview with author Chris Hedges, who touches upon the vital issues of the protest. You will also see an example of how not to interview someone who knows his stuff.

If you’re offended by foul language, you shouldn’t watch this video. If you’re even more offended by the crap of the music industry, you should watch this video.

Sometimes, in the pile of crap that is mass media, a gem of true journalism can be found.

This speech by Gerard Batten (Member of the European Parliament) took place in Strasbourg on September 12th. It is only one minute (as per the European Parliament’s rules) but I do not believe much more needed to be added to it.

Here’s an interesting and well produced film about the microchipping agenda and how it is promoted to the masses through mass media and predictive programming.

Pay attention to the words.
