Will you be reviewing the new Dune movie?
Absolutely
Looking forward to reading the review! I’m rather curious how woke will the film be.
There seems to have been some dispute between Greg and Endeavor about how to engage with pop culture.
Since most people are engaged in pop culture I think it is important that people like Greg watch the pig swill that passes for popular entertainment and educate the masses about the the propaganda behind it for the purposes of getting converts.
But I think it’s bad for people who are already awake to engage with pop culture. Quite frankly high culture in America is all but dead: the literature, art, architecture, and poetry are all crap, with a few notable exceptions. I think right now it’s best to get entertainment from the past; preferably by reading old books and traveling to see historical and natural beauty. I don’t count old films since Hollywood was always trash.
This is my ideal but I don’t always live up to it since it’s hard to become a reader when your mind has been corrupted by shiny pop culture. But I’m trying. Pop culture is like fast food: it’s best to never eat it but if you must eat a Big Mac or watch a Batman film try not to do it very often. Eventually you want to get to the point where you only eat nutritious whole foods and don’t watch any Batman films at all.
Also I don’t want to attack people for enjoying pop culture since it would make me look like a fuddy duddy puritan bore to harangue the masses for enjoying Enterouge or Game of Thrones (even though both of these things really suck).
Ideally after this dark age is over the west can start producing great works again. Until that happens the past seems to be the only place we can find quality works.
I have no issue with anyone in the DR enjoying culture or entertainment that doesn’t match our political beliefs. There’s too many people in this thing that seem to think we are somehow required to never relax and enjoy ourselves because x,y, and z books or shows or movies aren’t woke enough on the jews or are too degenerate, etc. If you’re all politics all the time you will truly lose your mind. An occasional respite is essential.
What I DO have a problem with are those of us who lie to ourselves and tell ourselves that our particular movie or TV or music tastes are somehow compatible with our beliefs and are not part of any woke movement. You like the new JJ Abrams Star Wars flicks? Great, have at it, but don’t come tell me it’s secretly a parable for the struggle of the dissident right against globohomo. It’s nothing of the sort and deep down you know it.
Mainstream entertainment will not be affected by a few nationalists, either way. So watch it, don’t watch it; it’s your call. You should probably try to avoid becoming deeply invested in it, but really, that’s always true once you’re past the age of 25.
However, you should do what you can to support emerging alternatives, even if they’re not as good as the mainstream, and switch as fully as possible. Not so that you punish the old, but rather so you enable the new. Usually, the best support is in the form of money.
