This is not incompetence. This is not bias. This is coordinated institutional capture at a level that would have seemed impossible to articulate in polite company until very recently, except that a screenwriter named Paddy Chayefsky laid out the exact blueprint in 1976, and nobody wanted to believe him because the truth was too ugly.
Great movie! I’ve seen it a few times. I remember when the movie got 4 academy awards, and 10 nominations. I was 12 years old! I always watched “adult films” (not porn-lol).
“I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!!!!”
I threw my television in the garbage 22 years ago. You’re preaching to the choir!
I think people in general don’t realize the evil that exists in the world. I do.
People also don’t realize how much Light, and Goodness is in the world either. I do.
Turn it off and go to Nature for Truth.
This is so big, I think Divine Intervention is the only answer. It is happening now in God’s “time” (time doesn’t exist in my humble opinion).
When I wrote it, it sounded bad😉-lol! As a kid, the “R” rated movies were “adult movies”. My dad always took me to them. Kids could go if you were with an adult.
“Midnight Express”, “The Deer Hunter”, “Tales From the Crypt”, “Ben”…you get the point😉.
It was definitely a different time. The 70’s and 80’s were 👍.
Lots of "adult" films to watch. Today, people think as a teenager you aren't mature enough to witness war or violence. Come on! I was a minor when I saw "Network"! Peter Finch!!!
WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IS WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG FOR PEOPLE IN ALL WALKS OF LIFE TO WAKE THE HELL UP AND NOT YET REALIZE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN LIED TOO, ON SO MANY LEVELS THAT IT IS JUST MIND NUMBING? OH!! WAIT!! COULD IT BE THAT THE DE-EDUCATION SYSTEM NEVER TAUGHT THEM TO CRITICALLY THINK? AND THERE IN LIES THE PROBLEM! IF ENOUGH PEOPLE COULD WAKE THE HELL UP AND COME TOGETHER, THEN THERE COULD BE A CHANCE FOR THE TRUTH TO COME OUT, AND THEN WE COULD LOCK UP THESE CRIMINALS FOREVER. THE FIRST WAY TO START TO STOP THEM IS TO NOT BUY THERE CRAP, AND STOP SUBSCRIBING TO TV. THE ONLY OTHER SOLUTION IS A 2ND AMERICAN REVOLUTION, AND THAT IS WHY YOU HAVE THE 2ND AMENDMENT. HOW MUCH LONGER DO YOU WANT THIS INSANITY TO CONTINUE?? DON'T YOU ALL THINK IT IS WAY PAST TIME FOR A REAL CHANGE?
I thank God I homeschooled my children and taught them critical thinking and rhetoric, as well as, and most importantly, to love to read. They love the Lord but are also leary of the church people who embrace Trump and excuse away his horrendous crimes and disgusting personality..
I heard about the movie Idiocracy and watched a little bit, but it's way too vulgar ~ I don't recommend it, but WOW! The president in that movie and the people! It's a Jerry Springer show🤢
I will check out Network DVD at my library and play it on my dumb tv..
All the world is a stage.. Glad God has a plan and we can choose what we believe and not rely on others to tell us what to think!
I hear the frustration in your comment, a lot of people feel distrustful right now. But if we’re going to talk about people being “lied to on so many levels,” it helps to be specific. Which issues are you referring to? What evidence do you find most compelling? Serious change starts with clear claims, solid facts, and constructive action. I’m open to hearing your perspective, what’s the most important truth you think people need to wake up to right now?
WELL FOR STARTERS, DON'T YOU THINK THAT IT ALL STARTS WITH THE DE-EDUCATION SYSTEM, IT HAS BEEN IN DECLINE SINCE THE 70'S FOR ONE. IT HAS BEEN BASED ON A SYSTEM WHERE THE ONES WHO ARE SLOW ARE RAISED TO A MID POINT, AND THE ONES WHO DO EXCELL ARE PULLED DOWN TO THE MID LEVEL AND KEPT FROM ADVANCING, TO CONTROL THE OUTCOME, IT IS CALLED OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION, I WAS IN THAT SYSTEM AND I LEFT AND GOT A JOB, BECAUSE IT WAS A HUGE WASTE OF TIME, AS IT TAUGHT ME NOTHING OF VALUE THAT I COULD USE TO FIND A GOOD JOB, JUST LOOK AT WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE UNIVERSITIES! YOU PAY AN INSANE AMOUNT TO GET A DEGREE, ONLY TO FIND THAT YOU ARE IN DEBT FOR 100-200K, AND CAN'T GET WORK, LIKE THE OTHER MILLION JUST LIKE YOU LOOKING FOR THE SAME JOB, AND NOW WITH AI, THESE JOBS WILL BE GONE IN 5-10YRS. OR SOONER. GO AND WATCH GEORGE CARLINS 2005 BEACON THEATER RANT, LIFE IS WORTH LOSING, AND GO TO 38MIN AND 44SEC. AND YOU WILL SEE WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING. AS YOU WILL SEE WE HAVE BEEN BRAIN WASHED BY THE POWERS THAT BE TO EXCEPT ALL THE SHITTY JOBS, AND BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE, AND DON'T QUESTION THE SYSTEM. ALL BECAUSE WE WERE NEVER TAUGHT TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX, AS IN CRITICAL THINKING!!
I GET WHAT YOU SAY, AND YOU ARE RIGHT!, JUST LIMIT WHAT YOU BUY TO WHAT YOU NEED, AND IF YOU CAN, ALSO BUY FROM YOUR LOCAL FARMER, FOR MEAT AND PRODUCE, OR GROW IT YOURSELF.
That’s a strong claim. When you say “spray us like bugs,” what specifically are you referring to? If there’s evidence behind it, I think it would help the discussion to share credible sources or data. Otherwise, it’s hard to separate legitimate concerns from speculation. I’m open to hearing more about what you’re basing that on.
Round-Up used on all grains grown conventionally… not just to kill weeds but also to desicate mature crops and make whole fields ready for harvest at once. If you eat Kellogg’s, or other similar brands… you are poisoning yourselves and your kids.
The people that sat behind AG bonding in court were not victims… they are actresses/actors. Why on earth would they let go on a talk show where their full visuals are made, and some of their names are revealed. There are nothing more than props for the Democratic Party. I’m not a republican. I am not a democrat. I am a constitutionalist. What I do know is that this writer has gotten her preconceived biases a little mixed up.
Agree with 90%. But facts matter and the following is not true.
“Trump’s name appears over one million times in the unredacted documents. One million.”
This number was uttered by Jamie Raskin who later clarified he misspoke.
The NYT latest review states 38,000 references, which include Melania, Mar a Lago and other items in the Trump orbit. 1000s of the references are simply newspaper clippings.
He’s mentioned a lot. But it’s not a million. Not even close.
Thank you for clarifying that. You’re right, accuracy matters, especially in conversations this charged.
If the “one million” figure was a misstatement and later corrected, that’s important context. At the same time, the broader point many people are debating is the nature and significance of the references, not just the raw number.
Do you happen to have a link to the NYT review you’re referencing? It would be helpful for everyone here to look at the same source material so the discussion stays grounded in verifiable facts.
Appreciate you bringing specifics into the conversation.
We need to burn it all down. Bondi said it would disrupt the system. Do it. IF the system is rotten, it needs to go. And while we’re on the subject, what about all the corruption and cover-ups related to the Franklin investigation in Nebraska in the early 90s, where a local businessman trafficked young teens and children to high-priced elites in LA and Washington for sex? The victims were discredited, jailed, told they were liars, by the very agencies that were supposed to protect them (FBI, NE State Patrol, local PD). And another thing…..what about all the P.Diddy files? Here he is serving jail time but we know nothing about what really went on, who was guilty and who was involved? Those files exist as well. This could very well take down almost all of Hollywood, but at this point, I don’t think mainstream America cares anymore. The system is rotten. Burn it down.
I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!
Hey. I liked your post but I have to ask you, "are you a citizen or not a citizen?" You said a few times "your government" and I'm just wondering because it brings up an important point: The el-ites aren't doing anything to us that we haven't given them our consent to do. Everything they do and have has been made possible by the vehicle of law and what the "consent of the governed" has afforded them.
Epstein is just the ice cube on top of the iceberg and the MSM is just the "continuation school" of what public schooling has always been for over a century. When we look at Epstein we are merely looking at the depraved proclivities of the el-ites, the "elect." But, that's still "them;" as with public school we're not looking at the myriad of crimes against humanity that have been committed *collectively* since America Day One nor our own complicity with "them."
War IS a crime whether it be conventional, psychological, biological, economic, political and WE do those things perpetually WITH the el-ites because WE have afforded (and afford) them their power and positions with each and every agreement we make with them (voting, registration, acceptance via use of State issued identity).
Pedophilia is a crime but so are drone strikes, boots on the ground and the plethora of other crimes America constantly perpetuates overtly and covertly. Epstein's case is just showing us how the el-ites like to party in their free time. But it is because of what America does as a nation all over the earth, at home and abroad, that I finally said "I want no part in that shit" and broke ties with the State altogether. Simply by letting my State given identity die (expire) I am no longer beholden to what the State and the el-ites do. I ain't WITH them anymore.
We can talk about them all we want but there's no denying that citizens are part of THEIR nation and that they get their authority from us. "One nation under the same yoke," and they hold the reigns.
I don't know if you're a Bible sort of guy but no one needs a Bible to see the wisdom in "Come out of her, my people, that you share not in her iniquity nor receive of her punishment." We don't need to prosecute the wicked as much as we need to stop giving them our authority to reign over us - it makes us complicit with them... even in their ability to cover up their disgusting proclivities.
Dude, I'm sorry to say but I believe that you're wrong about The Donald. Show me the millions of times DJT is named in the E. Files. Show everyone. Because you look like a left wing nut job and I know you're not. You're extremely talented and intelligent. Don't lose your credibility insinuating nonsense.
Me thinks this writer has terminal TDS bias. I could be wrong. Never was a fan of Mr Trump until I became enlightened to the depravity of the left. The left wished my family dead from their dream vaccine or forcefully injected or banished to the wilderness. Now the lefties are dying of their dream vaccine. It’s a fitting end and comeuppance.
The “news” has been the public relations department, or The Ministry of Truth, of Supremacy Inc. since pre-WWII, and to a lesser but still effective extent before WWI. But not just the news. There’s also the DOJ who released The Epstein Files. Oh, and we have to add Hollywood as another very important component of Supremacy Inc.
And make no mistake about it, Chayefsky was a proud member.

I think they may have been the best years of our lives … along with the sixties where I was a teenager.
It was so innocent! Yes, ignorance is bliss!
Sometimes I watch old tv commercials just for some nostalgia 🥺.
I’m not sure it was so innocent but they were definitely good times.
Lots of "adult" films to watch. Today, people think as a teenager you aren't mature enough to witness war or violence. Come on! I was a minor when I saw "Network"! Peter Finch!!!
Agree, I remember as a kid of about fourteen years old, my parents took me to see the movie the graduate with Dustin Hoffman and Ann Bancroft!!
I love that movie! I’ve seen it so many times!
“Plastics…”😂
Boy was he right!
Ditto, except the tv in the garbage part…
I can predict exactly what the large majority of the population is going to do about it.
Other than howl their outrage into the curated funnel we call social media, absolutely nothing.
Stop buying their crap.
Stop watching their media.
Most importantly, stop arguing amongst ourselves.
The most valuable currency on the planet is your attention.
Keep feeding the Beast with it and the Beast keeps getting bigger.
WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IS WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG FOR PEOPLE IN ALL WALKS OF LIFE TO WAKE THE HELL UP AND NOT YET REALIZE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN LIED TOO, ON SO MANY LEVELS THAT IT IS JUST MIND NUMBING?

I get have you been to farmers market where I am seems very corporate if not feels headed that way
Impossible to not Buy
There Crap when they OWN. Everybody and Everything.

I GET WHAT YOU SAY, AND YOU ARE RIGHT!, JUST LIMIT WHAT YOU BUY TO WHAT YOU NEED, AND IF YOU CAN, ALSO BUY FROM YOUR LOCAL FARMER, FOR MEAT AND PRODUCE, OR GROW IT YOURSELF.
The billionnaires also own the FBI. This begs the question: Why did they publish these files at all?
Exactly!

Grok. Claude. Perplexity.
But those were just confirmation of what critical thinking already told me.
Simple logic would provide the answer. 3 million pages released to date. And he’s in there 1 million times?
C’mon man.

Ned Beatty reveals the infrastructure in "Network." Then he updates that reveal in his monologue to Mark Wahlberg in "Shooter."
