About That Idris Elba Gold Documentary
Clickbait Title: Can this magical metal make you immortal? Godkings hate this one weird trick!
This was a lot of fun to work on because I got to spend a lot of time learning THE TRUTH ABOUT GOLD and by that I mean actually interesting facts about how humans use gold. The mythology of gold actually makes a lot of sense through the lens of its physical properties, the fact that ancient humans could make things out of it and those things would outlive generations. It's just rare enough that societal elites can monopolize it, but common enough you can gather enough to actually make stuff with it. So these things, namely jewellery for the leaders, are so resistant to the elements that you can see how the gold itself became representative of the power of the kings, of their claimed immortality.

    Wild to see apes in May 2024 declaring victory because GME's stock price has reached like 10-15% of the high point in 2021. Because remember, the movement states--as a core pillar of their belief system, mind you--that that 2021 number is a "sneeze," a pittance compared to the true value of GME shares. These people are so desperate for good news that they want to throw a parade because they've now gotten to 10-15% of an amount that they doctrinally consider to be nothing special. It's truly a different reality they're living in.

      To be fair, there was a 4-way stock split in 2022. The $480 peak in 2021 is equivalent to $120 today. So in pre-market trading yesterday, it briefly hit 67% of the all time high and traded in the 40-60% range. It's still based on absolutely no substance, but I never thought I'd see it trade for even a second north of $80 again. Apes had a little more juice left than I expected.

    Jamie's logic would say dishwashers are bad because they take longer and the cleaning powder/pod has a lot of ingredients. Completely ignoring you could do other valuable things with your time like reading a book or gasp... even sleeping. This way of thinking is bad to apply to anything, including chicken nuggets. Its not even about his conclusions his false dichotomies allow him to make a lot of weird statements he can pretend are in support of his answer. Which incidentally make for a story to put in a television show, but it basically is just (anti)virtue signalling. He is signalling he is good for not being poor and has to prove it many times by showing how bad everyone else is to him. Pretending everything has easy yes or no, good or bad, healthy or dirty answers to terminate their thoughts, supress critical thinking under the guise of critical thinking... to defend the status quo of systemic injustice while pretending he wants to improve things. 'Clearly it is your fault for liking how this food makes you feel when you eat it that everything in our life is not as good as mine' is just one of the many supressive thoughts carried in his shows

      @@Kilometers_KPH I forgot that you don’t actually want an answer, because it’s not even a question. It’s an accusation phrased as a question. In your mind there cannot be a good reason for someone to be concerned about your destructive antics, you infantile dolts, so there is no answer, even trying to answer is already a perceived failure. And the only reason this sentence is posed as a question and not as the statement that it is, is because it’s more bitey this way. It puts the onus on the person trying to reason with you, instead of straightforwardly making you look like the screeching baby throwing a tantrum that you are.

    People really need to give The Wall a listen, right now. It captures the sentiment of post brexit Britain so perfectly you'd think waters had a time machine. Try this lyric on for size: 🎶would you like to see our colored cousins home again, my friend? All you have to do is follow the worms!🎶 Does that hit right now or what? Nevermind the thing where waters got locked into his role as Pink and lives "behind the wall" in russia waiting for the bleeding hearts and artists to come rescue him. Sorry buddy. Ukraine first.

That should inform you of two things: 1. How acutely anemic that circlejerk became previously, such that they were not able to maintain pace depite the DRS fervor until news broke; 2.

    I think a part of why he (Doug) dismissed the WW2 allegory so much is because it’s overdone to him but also I feel like Americans (and other countries but mostly American media) tend to undermine and dismiss the Blitz. Like, most modern movies kinda skip over it or lampshade it as happening in the background meanwhile it was one of the most traumatic events in WW2 outside of the hol*caust, the entire city was pretty much bombed to dust, thousands died and parents were so desperate to save their children they sent them away and some of those children came home and their parents were gone. It was horrifying it was hell and it’s not really talked about because in WW2 American history classes Britain’s involvement is glossed over like “yeah they were bombed and they fought in D-Day but we did most of the work”
