    Let's play "Pathways: Navigating Gaming, The Internet & Extremism"

    If you wanna check out my own visual novels: https://emmanuel-goldstein.itch.io My own visual novels aren’t great, but MUCH better than the one’s from the UK government o_O Also, since it's mentioned in the game and in my let’s play, check out my article which truly exposes the racist propaganda about the alleged “great replacement” bullcrap. BTW; here is my own take on creating AI slop Amelia - hey, this is how I see her now - or anyone else from the British government for that matter o_O Also, let’s face it (except for in my “fan art”) Amelia looks like a typical woke antifa supporting hipster lefty. And I mean she is - I mean she is certainly woke, that’s her whole stick. Of course she is woke right instead of woke left, but that’s all the same to me - woke is woke. And we could probably talk for days about what exactly woke means and where it comes from and James Lindsay has literally done that. But in a nutshell and explained for Gen Zs, Neo from the Matrix is woke. So if you are woke you have woken up in that sense which actually means in a Gnostic sense. And in a social and political sense it means you have woken up to the societal injustices perpetrated by “the elite” (whoever those are) against the common citizen, against the little guy. And those capital… ahem I meant those elites are using their minions, the Archo… ahem I mean the manipulated masses that are still asleep to do their bidding and are brainwashing them into planning their own extinction. But those who are woke have the guts to stand up against that and the power to awaken others and the power to go topple the Demi… ahem I mean change the status quo. Now please tell me this isn’t Amelia, this is EXACTLY Amelia! PS: I really wasn’t too far off with my “fan art” there. Many of the AI slop videos praising her, make her look strikingly similar and unironically so: And while I certainly don’t agree with the woke left that ICE would literally be the Gestapo, she sure looks pretty authoritarian to me! And now that I am really thinking about all this, it’s starting to dawn on me… what if this whole viral Amelia meme thingy WASN’T an unintended consequence of the UK’s Pathways/Prevent campaign? Cause it seems to me that’s EXACTLY the outcome they would want. Think about that! What is the goal of the Pathways game and the whole “Prevent” campaign? Stronger government, stronger police, omnipresent snitches reporting to the police on their allegedly extremist neighbors (like Islamists) and even stricter laws making everyone a potential terrorist. What did the campaign achieve thanks to the viral memes? People asking for more police and stricter (immigration) laws and people becoming suspicious of Muslims, seeing them all as potential terrorists and wanting to snitch on your allegedly extremist Muslim neighbors! That’s neither a coincidence nor an accident and the campaign didn’t “fail” or “backfire” in the least. It succeeded at EXACTLY what it was designed to do! PPS: This isn’t an article BTW - it’s still a video - just wanted to share some anecdotes. Cause some people have been saying my article is too short this time :-) So be sure to actually watch my video/let’s play if you haven’t yet ;-) Get full access to Emmanuel Goldstein's (Movie) Theories at emmanuelgoldstein1984.substack.com/subscribe

    My review and analysis of The Golden Glove (2019)

    …and looks more like a photo from my seedy local German Stammtisch than from a movie… but trust me, the movie is deeper than it looks… And as for the thing with the curtains that I talk about; yes, I realize that in the screenshot I chose as the background image for my audio podcast, the curtains are a bit more open. But actually that doesn’t contradict my theory, it reinforces it. Cause this is the scene with the lady from the Salvation Army. Most of the time the curtains are closed. But when she comes, the curtains are open - giving them a chance to finally see the light so to say. BTW: the movie is on Netflix (at least as of my writing this and in my area) so check it out - but be warned - it really looks realistic, raw and is disturbing and hard to watch and is the exact opposite of a polished Hollywood movie glorifying violence. It’s violent but the violence is portrayed as being as disgusting as it is in real life. And to give you an even better impression of what the movie is like, here is the trailer. But as I already mentioned in my audio, the pretty teenager with the sausages is a red herring - she hardly even notices his existence and they never really interact - so keep that in mind. Cause the trailer especially tries to mislead you with this into thinking this would be a “normal” slasher movie and she would be the heroic and beautiful “final girl” that defeats the killer and survives, when he never even attacks her.
