Eliack is a something over in the Middle East. He seems to know what is going on. Apparently, Assad sucked. A mean bastard for all everyone else (puppy dog) is making him out to be.
Eliack hates the jews. I trust him on that simple fact.
Trump has signaled like the whole planet connected all their power plants to just one emitter that he has been captured and capitulated as early as just when dropped the first "MOAB", let alone the shit we've seen after the 2020 election like his disappearing for like 3-6 months complete radio silence etc after jan 20 2021.
Trump has gotten in but incredible amounts of down ballots didn't? In states he won? I'm tired of the bullshit. Let's cut to the chase. Did america fucking win or not? Not a single fucking covid era mail in ballot rule has been revoked, they've got the entire rigged apparatus they had in 2020 and 2022 still in place.
Remember all the bullshit they did in 2016? Telling electors to deflect. Forcing the main 3 or so states to do a full recount statistically only putting Trump in a position to lose. Dems etc supposedly just gave up on all they were willing to do before?
I did not know until recently that this nonsense propaganda was out there about this 100% ethnically jewish man with a non-biblical jewish name.
NASA has been talked about as a "pay check generator" since THE 80's!! It is the same thing now, and i have no idea what the connection is between space x not being funded by US taxdollars and NASA paying space x a "cheap" price for things. Not to mention "cheap" here is not really a valid concept since there isn't competition - the price is valued at whatever they want to charge, and this is exactly a symptom of communism. and low and behold all these free tax dollars are keeping diversity hire jobs afloat, and coloreds and women are pulling in $200k+ a year while gaslighting everyone else we live in a meritocracy and they are prestigious people that go to space every day at work and are TOTALLY NOT riding on the coat tails of the genius scientists from the Third Reich.
all of elon musk's "businesses" have never turned a profit, including twatter, and they are all funded by US tax dollars, making the 100% ethnically jewish elon musk the biggest recipient of corporate welfare in the history of the world.
another thing I want to throw in here is the massive cringe of people responding to the question "why do you say elon musk did all this stuff. he isn't the driving force of the technology he's working on" with "oh i'm not saying elon musk did it". yet, every sentence they speak about those government programs, that we're are gaslighted into thinking are private companies, they say elon musk did this or that.
this unelected and jewish US president is ruling as a dual oligarch with the faux-democratically elected US president.
This is posted in politics because that's the whole point of my review.
First off, the movie is like watching a sick fever dream. Watching it feels like you've had about six too many beers and are fresh out of Count Chocula. If you're not ready to endure three hours of that, I'd recommend holding off. While the plot isn’t exactly stellar, as I watched it, I started thinking: Caligula might have been the Donald Trump of his day.
Now, I think about the Roman Empire as much as any man, but I’m no history expert, so let me apologize in advance if I get anything wrong.
In the movie, Caligula deliberately provokes the Senate, which he sees as a bunch of pushovers:
- He makes his horse a consul. - He turns the imperial palace into a brothel, forcing senators' wives to participate. - There’s a fantastic scene where he declares himself God and shouts "aye," prompting the fearful senators to echo him one by one. Once he has them all doing that, he suddenly switches to "bah, bah" (like a sheep), and they sheepishly follow along, completely powerless to stop him. - He forces senators to grovel publicly. - And much more.
The film is an artistic take on Caligula’s reign, painting with broad strokes. For all its artistry, though, I think it does a great job capturing the core truths of the Caligula story.
There’s a humorous scene where Caligula sets out to invade Britain but instead has his men attack the waves and collect seashells. This story feels ripe for being taken out of context. It seem reasonable to me that Caligula was trying to make some kind of a statement but the historical recorded reported it as, “Crazy Caligula declares war on Neptune, lol.”
Other scenes show Caligula appealing to the masses over the Senate. For example, he hands out gold coins and hosts water games at the Colosseum. By doing so, he undermines the Senate while building popular support. My guess is that his disdain for the Senate, combined with his efforts to delegitimize and humiliate them, led the Senate to tell terrible stories about him after his death.
This is where I had my epiphany: Caligula, to me, sounds a lot like Donald Trump. He targeted high-level government officials, gained popular support, and yet the official narrative portrays him as a deranged madman.
