Highly Recommended TV Series for History Buff's: Amazon's "Red Mafia"
|

Self | December 16, 2017 | PJ-Comix
There is a lot of crap on TV to be avoided but there is one series that I found supremely entertaining (and educational). It
is "Red Mafia." It is a Russian production from 2011 but now available via Amazon Prime as you can see HERE. It is not to be confused with the Russian Mafia of current times. This series is about Party corruption during the Soviet Era. And there was quite a bit of corruption all the way to the top. What makes this series especially entertaining is that it has a lot of humor. For example, Brezhnev (in...

"Mark Twain said boxing is the only sport where a slave, if he's successful, can rub shoulders with royalty," says former heavyweight Mike Tyson, who once knocked out 19 opponents in a row. "Can
you imagine that? Just by fighting another human being, he can meet a king, a prince, a queen, eat at the same table with them, be invited to the castle." Or in modern times, make $30 million in one fight, build your own castle, stock it with tigers, and still wake up every morning the pawn of powerful men who make money off your sweat. When...

Last Monday night, a young, blonde-haired protester attended a Donald Trump campaign rally in New Hampshire for the sole purpose of yelling "fascist!" at the man on the stage. The
young activist had no idea that his brief moment of heckling would earn him an immediate smackdown from the nearest Trump-loving "celebrity boxer." Todd "The Punisher" Poulton - a self-described "people's champion" who has previously gone in the ring against former baseball star Jose Canseco and celebrity dad Michael Lohan-was caught on camera aggresively handling the unidentified male protester. Poulton is the guy with the face-tattoo resembling the one made...

Robert F. Kennedy Jnr has admitted for the first time that he uses testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) — which some doctors describe as 'legal steroids'. The
Democratic presidential hopeful admitted he is on an 'anti-aging' protocol prescribed by his doctor that includes TRT, a hormone treatment that can cause an increased risk of blood clots, heart attacks and strokes in some cases. Mr Kennedy's admissions has led some to call him out for hypocrisy. His political career has been built on peddling hardline anti-vaxx views for years, including the claim that vaccines cause autism and kill more children than they...

The debate is over. After a year investigating claims of election fraud the media has determined that any fraud in the 2020 election was far too small to have changed the outcome and Joe Biden legitimately won. Now
we can get back to our normal lives, or whatever passes for normal now… Except it’s fiction. In 44 BC Julius Caesar was murdered by Roman senators who claimed to be acting to protect the Republic but were in fact, simply seeking power. Their coup d'état put the final nail in the coffin of a Republic that had been dead in deed...

For years, from Mali to Afghanistan, I have worked for peace and risked my life for it. It
is therefore not a question of justifying war, but of understanding what led us to it. I notice that the “experts” who take turns on television analyze the situation on the basis of dubious information, most often hypotheses erected as facts—and then we no longer manage to understand what is happening. This is how panics are created. The problem is not so much to know who is right in this conflict, but to question the way our leaders make their decisions. Let’s...

One of the most damning traits of the left, a trait that would actually be humorous were it not so pernicious, is the attempt to frame whatever fad they wish to inflict upon the rest of us as a “reinterpretation” of history where “manufactured out of whole cloth” would be a better
description. The underlying impulse here is two-fold. First, they try to gaslight you into believing that they are describing the way things have always been. Secondly, it is a re-emergence of the political version of the ancient Christian heresy of gnosticism, i.e. of having special knowledge. The first...
