Popular Subversion
Hollywood Is A Menace To The World

"...the most powerful tool for shaping men's minds ever invented."
Vladimir Lenin

Complaining about the dooming wickedness that comes out of Hollywood is similar to complaining about what is preached from our Christian pulpits. In both cases devious agendas lurk behind the overt sights and sounds and in both cases consumers must bear some responsibility.

My wife and I turned one of our bedrooms into a home theater thinking it would give us some control over entertainment. With a large flat screen Sony television mounted on the wall, a companion Blue Ray disc player and a quality sound system with wires strung in the walls we get good reception without unsightly fixtures.

Aside from a problem with the Sony Blue Ray disc player which, at first, would not play certain Blue Ray Discs (Hard to understand how Sony can sell a Blue Ray disc player that doesn't play all Blue Ray discs, but they can, do, and expect their customers to accept the inconvenience of waiting on correction discs.) we have enjoyed the system.

David Puttnam, who produced Chariots of Fire, said: "Movies are powerful. Good or bad, they tinker around inside your brain. They steal up on you in the darkness of the cinema to form or conform social attitudes.. In short, cinema is propaganda."

From the silent movie beginning, before sight and sound were combined, citizens were concerned about the effect they might have on moral standards. In 1909 the People's Institute in New York City created "The New York Board of Motion Picture Censorship" which eventually became the "National Board of Review". It was the first attempt by the motion picture industry to self-regulate. In spite of this effort, in 1914 three bills were introduced into congress seeking to create a Federal Motion Picture Censorship Commission that could block copyrights on unapproved films. None of these bills passed. In 1915 the Supreme Court gave its blessing to state censorship and several towns, cities, and states set up censorship boards to determine which movies could be shown under their jurisdictions.

In 1922 the major studios formed a trade association, "The Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America", hired William H. Hayes, a politician, to advise and advocate for them. It became known as the Hayes Office and functioned for the following 23 years. MPPDA devised a code of "Don'ts" and "Be Carefuls" but in 1928 of 572 films submitted only 42 passed their lenient review.

Amoral film makers created a problem in a still moral society. Citizens did not trust the government to set proper standards and were faced with pressure from powerful interests in Hollywood to allow them to do their own policing. The addition of sound to the movies added to the outcry and in the 1930s public pressure forced movie producers to conform to some general definitions of decency. "Motion pictures are very important as an art.No picture shall be produced which will lower the moral standards of those who see it .the sympathy of the audience shall never be thrown to the side of crime, wrongdoing, evil or sin."

In this period the Catholic League of Decency was able to get some teeth into movie censorship by forbidding Catholics to see banned films. However, World War II produced a major moral decline in the United States and Hollywood exploited it by defying prevailing standards. Howard Hughes produced "The Outlaw" with Jane Russell in 1943. This film was successful in spite of open defiance of the censors. In 1953 Otto Preminger ignored all restraints in promoting "The Moon is Blue" setting the stage for a new classification in 1968 which is still in existence. (G, PG, PG-13, R, or NC-17) While public morality created enough outrage malevolent forces in Hollywood were curtailed but when public morality fell following the Second World War the battle was over.

It is impossible to write about the motion picture industry without mentioning its Jewishness. Immigrant Russian Jews built the motion picture industry. Marcus Loew founded Lowes Pictures, Louis B. Mayer and Samuel Goldwyn started Metro-Goldwyn Mayer, Parney Balaban launched Paramount and Harry Cohen formed Columbia Pictures. William Fox started Twentieth Century Fox and four Jewish brothers from Poland, Jack, Samuel, Albert, and Harry, launched Warner Brothers.

One writer says, "These men acquired this control because of an excellent sense of what the public would buy, intense personal drive, group solidarity as Jews, a willingness for hard work-and -- a lot of shady dealing. Adolf Zukor and Carl Laemmle illegally used Edison cameras without paying the royalities. Louis B. Mayer cheated the producers of Birth of a Nation by falsifying his bookkeeping, thereby making as much as $500,000 on the exhibition of that one film in 1915.(they) dumped their old Jewish wives and married younger gentile women.What they sought was entrée into those domain of power and influence which had once been exclusively gentile".

An atheistic, amorality, clandestine Communistic religion came along with these Hollywood moguls and their fellow immigrants. Many entered United States with Communist Party affliations and immediately became active in subverting their new home. During the 1950s spy trials involved Harry Gold, David Greenglass, Araham Brothman, Miriam Moskowitz, Sidney Weinbaum, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg and Morton Sobell - all Jewish. During these trials the Oppenheimers of Atomic Bomb fame received dishonorable mention. Anti-Nazi and pro-Communist movies were abundant but Hollywood was silent on the Communist issue.

Recently, Joel Stein published an article in the Los Angeles Times entitled "How Jewish is Hollywood?" He begins with this statement, "I have never been so upset by a poll in my life. Only 22% of Americans now believe 'the movie and television industries are pretty much run by Jews,' down from nearly 50% in 1964. The Anti-Defamation League, which released the poll results last month, sees in these numbers a victory against stereotyping. Actually, it just shows how dumb America has gotten. Jews totally run Hollywood."

The ADL spends millions of dollars attempting to keep the real truth from the American people. They are aided by Hollywood, the press (what's left of it), and the media. Stein is proud that the movies, the media, publishing, and our government are all controlled by Jews. He thinks Goyim are "dumb" (unfortunately, he is right) and hopes it continues.

Hollywood has a symbiotic relationship with the United States Government as well as governments of other nations. Tax breaks and other favors are often obtained in exchange for favorable treatment.

Our electoral process is controlled by the media (owned by the same cabal that runs Hollywood). Exposure is granted to chosen candidates and removed from those that are disdained as they did with Congressman Ron Paul. Under this pre-selection process voting becomes a sham since the outcome will conform to the agenda of the selectors regardless of which one is elected. Through media propaganda, controlled Democracy has become synonymous with freedom and is being used to create despotism throughout the world. Media manipulation in the United States and to some extent around the world has Russian Communist roots. They delight in promoting far left candidates like President Obama who was a media creation being a little known Senator from Illinois with a questionable birth place and Marxist associations.

Joel Stein may not be worried about Jewish power but freedom loving individuals, Jewish or not, should be worried.

As the Twenty First Century unfolds movies have followed the decline of ancient Rome with a progressive march to blood-gushing cruelty, crude offensive language, and varieties of pornographic sex. Many movies are bereft of story lines depicting only segments of morbid social situations. The f--- word is gratuitously inserted into the dialogue even in movies depicting eras prior to it existence. Every effort is being made to mainstream homosexuality, male and female, and to deteriorate the conventional family by replacing the authority of the White male with women and Blacks. Women are depicted as physically stronger than men and dominate positions are filled with Black actors in percentages far higher than their numbers in the population. Miscegenation has become a common theme. Finding well-acted movies with interesting plots, and morally acceptable themes is like finding the proverbial needle in hay stack.

Hollywood products are exported throughout the world and there appears to be an effort to debase the moral integrity of world cultures. David Cronenberg who directed the movie "Naked Lunch" maintained, ""Nothing is true. (Morality) is not absolute. It's only a human construct, very definitely able to change and susceptible to change and rethinking. And you can then be free. Free to be unethical, immoral . Ultimately, if you are an existentialist and you don't believe in God and the judgment after death, then you can do anything you want: You can kill, you can do whatever society considers the most taboo thing. Yes, I'm putting art in opposition to religion - or as a replacement for religion."

The best example of the nature of God's created beings is the Genesis record of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. They were authorized to live in luxury in the Garden eating of its fruits and enjoying its beauty. The only exception was the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

I don't know about you but when someone corrects me or bids me to do the unexpected there is something that rises up in me that wants to refuse. Even when it is obviously right and I know it is right there is the same resistance. There is also great pressure to do that which is properly forbidden. During my high school years I had a good friend whose father was the minister of our church. He was an excellent student, a fine athlete, and one of the most humble men I have ever known. From our small Mid-Western town he went on to graduate from Princeton with a degree in theology and became the Assistant Pastor of a large Mainline Presbyterian Church in suburban Philadelphia. Wally had had testicular cancer and shortly after assuming his new duties it became terminal. He died in his twenties ministering to people in the hospital during his final days. As Godly a man as he was, out of the blue, he once said to me, "I'm not afraid to curse, G-D---- it". He said it in specific defiance of God's command. It might have been an insignificant gesture for anyone else, but from Wally it was shocking.

This urge to do the thing that is forbidden brought a sinful inheritance to all mankind. God's Law was given to a fallen race as an immutable guideline for behavior that would bring blessing to a people inclined toward sin. Obedience is the major theme throughout the Bible, both Old and New Testaments. In the Old Covenant obedience was the only criterion for salvation. From Genesis to Malachi God's Chosen People failed to obey bringing on themselves at the Diaspora, the dispersion God had prescribed as punishment. Though the dispersion was warranted, God in His great mercy so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should have everlasting life. The New Covenant was a gift to God's Chosen People designed to change their hard disobedient hearts to soft, repentant hearts, wipe out every record of their sinful past, and provide forgiveness for future failures. The Law would remain as the standard for behavior but it would no longer condemn His Chosen People. When the High Priest called for the crucifixion of Christ rejecting God's merciful provision, the final rejection occurred. Just as He changed His mind and rejected King Saul, God then rejected His Chosen People. The Jews opted not to attend the Wedding Feast and the ministry of Paul the Apostle, beckoned Gentile Christians instead.

Un-absolved sin feeds on itself, it festers, breaks forth and oozes. Pharisaical Jews rejected their Savior and their progeny have lived with un-absolved sin since the time of Christ. Hollywood oozes that putrid poison.

I read today that Joel Hunter, a Christian Evangelical pastor with a large church in Longwood, Florida, has joined a 25 member religious advisory council created by President Obama. His fellow advisers include a Reformed Rabbi, a former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, and a female Bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church.

If Joel Hunter was a real Christian he would never have been invited to fill such a position. Instead Hunter has skillfully promoted a watered down christian pap that has made him popular and well know at a time in history when a true Christian message would have him hated, harassed, and even jailed.

Hollywood (the press and media as well) is engaged in a similar deception. Instead of fulfilling their proper role exposing dishonesty and connivance, with truth they are busy debasing morals and causing conflict. Their agenda seems to be centered on promoting revolution and tyranny as some of their forbearers did in the Former Soviet Union.

Wake up America! Are you all "dumb" as Joel Stein claims or can you hear the truth and act accordingly?

In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.
We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragments huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Horace Smith
