Adam Curtis (12/12/16) by Chapo Trap House published on 2016-12-12T05:31:57Z We got to interview one of Will’s favorite filmmakers Adam Curtis about his new movie HyperNormalisation. We talk about Trump, the curse of bloodless liberalism, science fiction, Escape From New York, living in the Zone, and tough medicine for the left. Adam was extremely nice and is now Chapo UK correspondent.

Sooner or later something's got to give. Whether that is the world's powerless being cut out of the system and left to die or the powerful being eaten by the poor remains to be seen. 2018-04-14T14:13:01Z Comment by gamerunknown German? 2018-01-21T10:15:10Z Comment by gamerunknown why on earth is it necessary medicine any more than Roger Scruton? 2018-01-20T22:36:42Z Comment by highonfire1509 @rmestad: Forgive by Burial 2017-12-02T06:58:59Z Comment by Backseatpolitics amazing 2017-11-13T07:23:18Z Comment by longdarkblues heed his words on individualism 2017-10-09T23:18:44Z Comment by Kurian's Korner *heavy sigh* 2017-09-26T19:58:32Z Comment by Michael V.

But, I am not saying that his policy in the 90's, and the way Reno handled Waco and Ruby Ridge were and impetus for that movement. THEY are saying that. These two incidents are the fodder they use, constantly, as 'proof' the 'gubermint is coming fer their guuuns.' 2016-12-21T19:49:17Z Comment by herkrieg @professoraminus: Hahaha, yeah. I did some research on this new alt-right for a documentary and had to go really far down the rabbit hole. The doc never got made but I wish it had. It would shed a lot of light on the strange belief that underlie the movement. In particular, their fasination with a 'Soverign Citizen' (which is an oxymoron) and 'Admiralty Law.' Appearently even Wesley Snipes got involved pleading that he was a 'vessel' in a court case involving his taxes!! 2016-12-21T19:42:25Z Comment by professorAMinus @herkrieg: I read McVeigh's manifesto, it struck me like the pained writings of a closeted Marxist who thought suicide was more an option than coming out as a socialist 2016-12-20T03:49:46Z
