The Descent of Marvel

Are they really even trying anymore? This is exceptionally bad dialogue, even by Hellmouth standards.

It goes without saying that this movie is going to bomb so hard, it will leave a crater that will make future archeologists suspect it caused the dinosaurs to go extinct. But the real question is: does this mark the nadir of Marvel?

And the answer is no. Because Disney hasn’t shuttered Marvel yet. But they will. Sooner or later, and probably sooner, they will.

Pity the poor Herald, who will watch this so we don’t have to.

Delingpole Has His Doubts

About the legitimacy of Russell Brand in the aftermath of his apparent cancellation:

Brand employs language not to so much to communicate as to beglamour. Like a cut-price Jimmy Savile – reputedly he was a wizard and his catchphrase ‘Now then, now then’ was calculated to throw listeners off their temporal balance – he is an enchanter weaving a spell. The message he strives to get across is “yes I know I’m a shifty sleazebag but you can’t help loving me because I’m a cheeky chappy, you can tell from my accent that I’m a man of the people, yet I’m also above average bright because listen to all my long words and how quickly I join them together in sentences which sound like they make sense.”

Lots of people fell for this – and continue to fall for this – for words indeed work as powerful spells for those who know how to use them. But mainly people fell for it because they were told to fall for it: by the telly; by that loveable Jonathan Woss; by chat shows; by Hollywood; by the organisers of the 2012 Olympics ceremony; by the publishers who put out My Booky-Wook; and, most recently, by all those allegedly Awake fans of Brand’s podcast who’ve been protesting for the last two or three years “No, it’s OK, you don’t understand, he really has changed, he’s one of us now.” Or, if you prefer, “But I LOVE him, Dad.”

This is how the Narrative prevails. It wears you down with its relentlessness and its ubiquity. We can sometimes appreciate this with hindsight – the way, for example, it’s now impossible to watch old footage of Jimmy Savile without wondering whatever we saw in this obvious creep. What we forget is that at the time it was almost impossible not to think Jimmy Savile was a good thing. He had been endorsed and promoted by so many sources – the charidees, the royals, Top of the Pops, his dear old Mum… – that our natural instinct to be utterly repelled by him was bludgeoned into quietude. It was like the Asch conformity test. You couldn’t help giving the wrong answer even when you knew it wasn’t the right one…

This is why there is such division, even among the Awake, about Russell Brand. What it comes down to, essentially, is whether or not you believe he’s an Illuminati foot soldier who has sold his soul to the devil and serves no other cause than the Luciferian agenda of the occult predator class.

If you don’t, if you think all that occult/Masonic/Babylonian Mystery School stuff is a bit too bonkers to accept, then you’ll find it easy to make earthbound excuses for his behaviour. If, on the other hand, you know that it’s all real, that when, in the course of a supposedly self-exculpatory video Brand forms his fingers into the shape of the Number of the Beast it’s not because he’s got arthritis, then you’ll wonder why anyone could be so deluded as to fall for the oldest trick in the book.

And a hand gesture is never just a hand gesture. Personally, I couldn’t care less about a celebrity who may or may not be, but probably isn’t, on our side. Unless he’s openly proclaiming Jesus Christ, defending the three pillars of Western civilization, and publicly denouncing every aspect of Clown World, including its master, I consider it safe to assume that he’s been assigned to a new role as the latest gatekeeper and celebrity icon for the naive Christian Right, which unfortunately sometimes seems to comprise most of it.

The Cancellation of Russell Brand

The Clown signal has gone out and Russell Brand is being mass-swarmed in the media by women accusing him of rape, sexual assault, emotional abuse, and sinister behavior toward women:

TV bosses have been accused of offering to take female staff members off shows fronted by Russell Brand after concerns about his alleged behaviour were raised.

It comes amid reports that accusations about his ‘sinister’ behaviour towards women were an ‘open secret’ among TV and radio executives.

Some former staff members who worked with him during his time on Big Brother’s EFourum claimed they were ‘acting like pimps to Russell Brand’s needs’ as he demanded they get the numbers of girls from the audience for him.

Bosses at the BBC and Channel 4 are accused of turning a blind eye towards the entertainer’s behaviour while he worked for them as a presenter between 2006 and 2013.

The broadcasters have insisted they took all necessary steps deal with him, but executives could still be called before a Government select committee where MPs will grill them over what they knew.

The 48-year-old’s behaviour is alleged to have been common knowledge among female performers on the comedy circuit, who are said to have warned each other about him.

Brand has been accused of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse by multiple women, including one who says she was 16 at the time.

I’m not defending Russell Brand. He’s an awful guy, a drug addict who was embraced by the Hellmouth and married to an Illuminati princess. He has eminently earned his cancellation, and the public discourse will not be harmed one iota by his public and permanent erasure from it. He does not have, and has never had, anything of substance to offer the stream of public consciousness.

That being said, it is interesting to ask why he is being cancelled at this late date and at this juncture. Is it because he is genuinely reformed and repentant, and therefore must be destroyed like any other ticket-taker who reneges on his contract pour encourager les autres? Is it part of a masquerade to set him up as a new gatekeeper in the mode of other fake-cancellations like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate? Did he simply cross the wrong dark master at the wrong time? Or does he know something that Clown World is desperate to prevent him revealing to the rest of the planet?

Regardless of what the real reason is, never forget that neither cancellation nor opprobrium from Clown World makes an individual a hero, a good guy, a leader, or someone worthy of taking seriously.

UPDATE: It’s fascinating to see how celebrities are protected from every form of criticism and investigation, until they’re not.

Channel 4, BBC and the police have all launched probes into Russell Brand’s behaviour in light of rape and sexual assault allegations

They Do Love Their Pedos

It’s fascinating to observe the juxtaposition between the way the media immediately jettisons anyone suspected of possessing Christian beliefs with the way it circles the wagons and aggressively protects accused sexual predators like Jimmy Saville, Cyril Smith, Arthur C. Clarke, Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, Philip Schofield, and the current “BBC Presenter” it refuses to name.

And given what we’ve already heard in the last year concerning a) abortion and b) transgenderism, I’d estimate it will be about 18 months before we are reliably informed that “pedophilia is a Jewish value”.

UPDATE: The BBC is investigating “sensitively”. Which is to say, its executives are desperately attempting not to see or hear anything. Notice that it took nearly two months and a public outcry before the BBC executives even began looking into the allegations.

  • May 19: Alleged victim’s family complained to the BBC, asking for the presenter to be told to stop sending their child money.
  • June X: The accused host allegedly attended a party alongside BBC senior executives.
  • July 7: The BBC star was said to have been taken off air – but has not been suspended.
  • July 8: It is revealed the presenter could face a police probe over potential crimes which carry a maximum 14-year prison sentence
  • July 9: Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer holds ‘urgent talks’ with BBC boss Tim Davie.

UPDATE: Syria bans the BBC

BBC journalists will no longer be able to legally work in Syria after the country’s authorities revoked their accreditation.

This isn’t related to the BBC sex scandals, but will likely prove to be an important future vector for reducing the importance of the media and its ability to push an international narrative. If all the BRICS countries follow suit and ban all Western media companies, it will severely restrict their reach, their revenues, and their influence.

Eventually, everyone from individuals to entire nations will learn the necessity of refusing to talk to the media.

Netflix’s Next Target: Narnia

After seeing how Amazon demolished The Silmarillion and Disney pillaged both Indiana Jones and Star Wars, Netflix has decided to join the fun by defacing The Chronicles of Narnia.

Netflix has the rights to make Chronicles of Narnia movies now, and it has chosen actor and director Greta Gerwig to make said movies. I’m not joking. Netflix wants her to write and direct two Narnia films.

Gerwig is an interesting choice given during the press tour for the Barbie film she’s made numerous comparisons between the film and Christianity. Most recently it was revealed in The New Yorker that when Gerwig originally pitched the film she did it “with a poem in the style of the Apostles’ Creed.”

Back in May while discussing the relationship between Barbie and Ken with Vogue, Gerwig said, “Barbie was invented first. Ken was invented after Barbie, to burnish Barbie’s position in our eyes and in the world. That kind of creation myth is the opposite of the creation myth in Genesis.”

The Barbie movie isn’t out yet, but a woman who sees a movie about dolls for little girls as “the opposite of the creation myth in Genesis” might be the last person that C.S. Lewis would have picked to adapt his books. In fact, she might be the exact type of person his books warn about.

Gerwig, who was raised a Unitarian Universalist, was also the director of the 2019 Little Women movie, which some regarded as woke and feminist.

In the film, she took out the faith in God that was so crucial to the characters – the thing that all else revolved around – and replaced it with tones of feminist empowerment through the deconstruction of the Christian worldview.

Take out the Christian worldview from Narnia and what is left? Some animals talking and a shallow fantasy kingdom with various overtones and subplots that will be considered irredeemably racist and culturalist by today’s standards.

Still think it’s “all about the money”? Still think it’s all about impressing their fellow elites at cocktail parties? How many more financial disasters that all just happen to relentlessly undermine the icons and the culture of the West do you need to witness to understand that there are other, darker motives at work here?

Adjusted Metrics

If you don’t like a product for what are deemed to be the wrong reasons, your vote no longer counts:

A leading film rating site has adjusted its review metrics after it found “unusual voting activity” for a live-action remake of The Little Mermaid that has been criticised for casting a black actress as Ariel.

The film, which was released in May, had a 7/10 rating on the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) website, despite 15,000 of its 39,000 user-submitted reviews having given it one star.

In a notice posted on the film’s page, IMDB said: “Our rating mechanism has detected unusual voting activity on this title. To preserve the reliability of our rating system, an alternate weighting calculation has been applied.”

The lesson, as always, is this: convergence eliminates an organization’s ability to perform its primary function.

What is the point of a review site that does not permit reviews? The fact that it is permissible to dislike a movie for one reason, but impermissible for another reason renders the entire service of the review site irrelevant. After all, if one person doesn’t wish to see a movie with a black protagonist, this point is presumably of interest to anyone who happens to share their opinion.

Such as, for example, the entire population of China and most of the population of Asia.

The self-immolation of the Clown World corpocracy is serving to create one global business opportunity after another.

SpongeBob PedoPants

At this point, all children’s shows need to be considered intrinsically suspect. Just as all media “fact-checks” need to be considered inherently false.

Posts on Facebook claim that the address shown on the driver’s license of SpongeBob SquarePants, the animated sea sponge who has starred in the eponymous Nickelodeon show since 1999, is located on Little St. James, the private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands once owned by Jeffrey Epstein. This claim is false.

False. The address seen on SpongeBob SquarePants’s driver’s license is not the address of a theme park located on Jeffrey Epstein’s island.

Theme park? Who said anything about a theme park? Here is the address:

And here, verified repeatedly by myself and others as recently as 31 May 2023, is the result of putting that address into Google Maps. Apologies to those on mobile, but the detail is insufficiently clear at 512 pixels wide. The address is clearly shown on Epstein’s infamous Little Saint James island.

That goofy creepy stuff isn’t good, beautiful, or true anyhow. And it’s not as if “Bikini Bottom” isn’t questionable enough for a little kid’s show.

Saving the Devil Mouse

Conservatives are literally retarded. When they’re not trying to save liberals from the obvious consequences of their actions, they’re trying to prevent the Devil Mouse from immolating itself in its own wickedness.

Movieguide Chairman and Founder Ted Baehr, is calling on parents to petition Disney+ to stop the release of Pauline on the platform.

“We can’t let this twisted and disturbing content corrupt our children’s values and beliefs,” he shared.

“Let me be clear. Pauline is not just another piece of entertainment,” Baehr added. “Horrifically, this series even portrays Satan as a romantic partner! By normalizing and promoting such a relationship, Pauline sends a dangerous message to young viewers that associating with demons, Satan, and evil is acceptable and even desirable!”

Baehr said MovieGuide is partnering with Citizen-go to stop the series from premiering on Disney+.

“If released, there will be millions of young viewers who may perceive this twisted and disturbing story as desirable and exciting,” Baehr warned. “The show’s attempt to normalize and even promote demonic association is a blatant attempt to blur the lines of morality and make evil desirable.”

“We must act now to petition Disney to reconsider their decision to platform this evil show. We need to inform the studios that there are still discerning viewers and parents who won’t allow this content to be viewed by our children,” he added.

Baehr continued, “Pauline has not been released yet, and we can still STOP this show from progressing any further…we need to act fast.”

This is wrong. This is retarded. This is ridiculous. We don’t need to act fast. In fact, we should not act at all. Of course Pauline is awful. And worse is still to come. Let Disney be Disney, shake the dust of the Magic Kingdom off your sandals, and let the flames of its descent into the Hellmouth warm your back as you walk away from it.

UPDATE: The Dark Herald observes horrors beyond your imagination at Disney World, which is to say, trans-princesses for Pride month.

Mickey the Franchise Cannibal Rat is now devouring his own. This is exactly why I was laughing my ass off when various content monkeys started to claim with perfect conviction that Disney was getting rid of the Woke. That was impossible. Not given the board of directors it has and not given Bob Iger’s personal inclinations that he is now too old to successfully hide anymore.

When we snarl about Pedo-Mouse this is exactly the kind of shit we are talking about. It’s not just Princess Poppers greeting the kids at the door. Apparently pixie-dust can now change little boys into little princesses if they have the kind of mother who should have been forcibly sterilized before graduating college. What should be a very special day for a little girl is now the Disney Princess Drag Race. Do you have a perfectly normal little girl? Disney can fix that for you! With the right horrors implanted where cherished memories should have been, she’ll be a fat-shaven-headed bisexual activist before she graduates from grade school! That’s the Disney Magic!!!
