The moments before our great revealation

[Sepia]

Before we figure it out, the truth behind why we live, the subconscious reality, non-tainted by our thoughts and questions, we are distracted by media because there's this thing making the rounds telling us that Lars von Trier is a nazi and digs hitler but then I read what he said and I know I'll never open my mouth to a newspaper ever because I agree with him and that makes me a nazi by default I guess. To be clear, what hitler did was horrible, the actions he were responsible for were terrible acts but the way we handled this business, the trials in Nuremberg, the painting of satan in the fair lands of sauerkraut. Never forget what we got away with from that man and the ones serving him, never forget the monstrosities and never forget that the monstrous deeds still echo in our halls to this day as we see the last shuttle depart from earth as we see big pharma reading mengele on the bed

He did something impressive, or, what he did might not be so impressive but to the extent he went was. Everything was there in place regarding the jews, ill-liked and with eugenics being there, ready to be used further. It's like a Ken Kesey thing and Bill Hicks has my favourite quote about hitler and hitler was an underachiever, kill them all

kill them all

He built himself a fucking empire in the heart of europe and everyone looked like a million dollar while they fired up the ovens and in my belief, it is the highest state of ordnung that has been created in newer times. Contrary to popular belief, they were not evil. Evil deeds, sure, but they were people like you and me and some time in the future people like you and me will do the same shit again because it's the human ride and this is how we roll. A hope might be that people learn from past mistakes but I no longer put stock into hope for hope is only the air we breathe, it is said that in the concentration camps they used the ashes as fertilizer in the soil around the camps. First they burned them, handed their remains back to their friends so they could then provide further sustenance. There is a beautiful symmetry in it, no matter how grotesque

Just here in our little country, they built much of our infrastructure for railroads. We had Hamsun, a sympathizer to the cause, senile, old and filled with hate he later said hitler was mad but still it lingers in the woods, his words: Om hundre år er allting glemt. In a hundred years, all will be forgotten- We were young then, renting a loft downtown in one of the seedier places but we got a loft and we sat there for hours talking about nazism, all of us distanced and detached, seen the camps, seen their places of power and soon the last will be revealed on the dark side of the moon. We talked about the aesthetics of the third reich and how complete it was, how perfect it was branded from banners to boots. It seemed to seamless now, like a perfect machine, not an alive one but a sentient one because that is what will suffice and the cold rules the world and the cold rules the hearts

He tried to exterminate a race. That's only one step below annihilating the world in the villain hierarchy. I don't think you can go further than willing something into extinction and then doing it or at least trying like fifty cent. What he did was horrible but you must admit he did it so fucking well that it deserves some respect, he was human after all

All too human we tell each other as we ride the rollercoaster, descending and ascending, existing in a world where there is no up nor down and we hear the valkyries riding closer to us and we are enriched in the moment, basking in the holy glory of ourselves amidst all these strangers and they're all really strangers and the moment fades as it always does and it is as the moment fades, hope tries to fill the holes, an ersatz illumination with almost the right set of feelings but nothing more, no thought, nothing more than watered down acid

Nothing more than meditation, nothing more than a fast or a feast, nothing more than the wildest debaucheries you can think yourself, nothing more will here be gained, only lost. Nothing for nothing as the saying goes. We know and as we know we turn the corner and we know what we saw, we know what will happen and for some of us it fills us with fear and others with bloodlust and anger and terror, we invoke the eldest of gods who were never human, never held our form or communicated with us, concepts as gods, subconscious desires formed into star-devouring monsters and these are our the ones we cling our hope to

shiniest of them all

Couldn't agree more! You run the risk of being called a sympathiser with those kind of words but the kind of people who would accuse you would be the first to buy into the jingo and don the blackshirts. The roman empire was awesome. It was terrible but that doesn't detract from the magnitude. Likewise the 3rd reich, likewise the american empire if they ever manage to get their shit together (hopefully not). Humans kill humans. The more they kill the larger the typeface awarded in the history books.

Sad but true.

I'm probably reading too much into it but is that an Iron Sky reference?

It is indeed. I can't explain why I thought it worked at the current time or what my idea by including it was but it is. I'm filled with both dread and joy at the movie itself but I think it'll just be bad and not bruce campbell bad.

The concept alone makes me want to see it... and while the first trailer is truly awful the second one doesn't seem half bad.
