OK-
as if I don’t have enough hashtags to backtrack on and update (including one I call “aoag” which applies to “archive only active gifs”-that is to say, gifs that only work when viewing them in archive-and they will do the very same for you, if you seek them out and reblog them-hint hint), I have decided to make a new hashtag called “top tier” applying to posts that I felt were creative, quirky, or informative things worth going back and referencing.





Mad Magazine’s Academy for the Radical Religious Right
illustrations by Drew Friedman
Amazing just how accurate this 90′s Mad Magazine nailed it, as we still deal with “it” today: denouncing the media, stifling women in politics, bashing, computer generated art (ranging from fraud memes to videos making Pelosi look “drunk”), demeaning the enemy. etc.
If one wonders what “religious right” (of the 70′s-90′s) have to do with Trump and the Alt-Right now, check out the Council for National Policy (founded by Evangelicals like Robertson, Lahaye, Dobson, Falwell, etc. and funded by cultist “Messiahs” like the Rev. Sun Myung Moon and cultist MLM leaders like the DeVos family) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_for_National_Policy
Past and current members include Mormons, blood-thirsty Reconstructionists like John Rousas Rushdoony, rabid ERA-denouncer Phyllis Schlafly, Steve Bannon, Kellyanne Conway, Elsa Prince, Oliver North, Mike Pence, Larry Pratt, and more.
Too bad Mad was neutered in 2000 (along with a few other things like the X-Files and Simpsons) and can no longer pull the mainstream weight of providing a healthy sense of skepticism and perspective many of us (including kids) need now more than ever.
Many pronged connections.
Just a little more reminding.

-if “demonic entities” in this selection from The Book of the Subgenius is metaphoric hyperbole for “facial recognition cameras” and “surveillance drones” or the very odd polluted haze we see before our dimmed eyes from taking all the medicated crud we’ve been told to “ask our doctor about”.
Though there is a definitely a relevant point to be made about gun-toting Manchurian Candidates (like the many we have been seeing lately) and some phony Evangelical dispensationalist Christian “Rapture” NAR types and guys from the Council for National Policy that push Dominionism (Jerry Falwell, Tim “The Unhappy Gays” Lahaye, Pat Robertson, Mike Pence, Kellyanne Conaway, Ollie North, DeVos, Elsa Prince, Steve Bannon, etc.)

-even if it means reclaiming Jerusalem to build some man-made earthly Temple for “Christ” (holographic CGI? series of clones to last 1,000 years?) to dwell in for a unquestioned theocratic millennial reign….but I’m getting ahead of myself here….but we still must ask ourselves as Kirk and his crew did “Why does ‘God’ ‘need’ a spacecraft?”
-but just think about it for a moment: imagine a time where everyone is cloistered and cubicled and compartmentalized away into their little bubbles and noone questions the feed and interaction they have from TV or online culture. Noone has the attention span to read a full book anymore, and everyone is cut off from their past.
Well, with the right panic chemicals dispersed at the right time, you can flash names up on a screen that don’t mean diddly-shit and tell folks these are the “disappeared” and folks will start to tremble and sweat and really buy into the stupid notion the “Rapture” happened and that they dang plum “missed out”.
We have prophecies and projections running neck and neck here folks!
Which one will be the one to overcome and head the other off at the pass?
Quit your job and slack off and stock up on bottled water and Nintendo DS games for the kiddies!
Amen, I say, brothers, sisters, and mutants alike. Amen.
Here is a PARTIAL list of local ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC affiliates, owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group, who are using their local news as State TV to deliver scripted right wing propaganda in support of the Dear Leader.

ALSO - Portland OR ABC - KATU channel 2 and FOX channel 12 (at least)
This is SERIOUS STUFF
This and the removal of Net Neutrality.
State-run propaganda at it’s most obvious.
-going to reblog this again, as well….just so we know what we are in for as communication gets more whittled down.
Hmmmm…

(from Chapter 11 of the Book of the Subgenius)
Would suck to think that there is a shadowy collective (extraterrestrial or not) that has acquired lots of power trying to sow as much division as it can through any channel that it can not just between nations but also between states, towns, and races.
