Tesla was a brilliant engineer who pioneered the use of alternating current (AC), something which anyone with a modicum of knowledge and practical experience would greatly prefer over direct current (DC). This was portrayed as an epic engineering battle of the ages but truth be told, if both Edison and Tesla were both run over by a street car thus removing them from history, someone else actually many people would have reached the same conclusion. This isn't magic folks. Someone would have gotten tired of the overheated wires and fires.

Tesla was a great engineer but most of his life was failure and disappointment. Unable to do physics because of his lack of the requisite mathematical expertise and washed up as an engineer, it's not surprising he turned to fantasies of power and escapism in occult studies. That too proved to be a dead end of course but it helped poor Tesla winnow away the time. Too bad.

Einstein the great physicist was unable to muster enthusiasm for quantum mechanics which he understood very well and quite powerfully. He was convinced there had to be a better way. Maybe there is. I certainly think so but no one has really found it. There have since been equivalent reformulations of QM particularly that discovered by Richard Feynman which has proven to be extremely useful in particle physics. Mathematically, Feynman's integrals leave something to be desired. Moreover, Einstein missed the General Relativity Renaissance in the 1950s due to death, in which massive strides forward we made in terms of our understanding of relativistic gravity, cosmology, gravity waves and solutions to Einstein's equations. He was a tottering old man then and probably couldn't follow the advanced that were being made. There's also the fact that Einstein had rejected his own theory to a degree because he didn't like Black Holes and other such things we now know to be artifacts of how one chooses coordinates to describe the spacetime around a massive object. Did Einstein ever learn differential forms, Cartan's reformulation of tensors which proved useful? I doubt it. Einstein for all his earlier brilliance might as well have gone fishing at some point.

Which leads us to the present moment today, how do we relate to these two "towering" figures so shrouded in mythology which brings with it the fringe nonsensical detractions and sensational speculations? IMO the guiding light is experience, disciplined judgement and sharpening your skills. Will people still both to refer to Einstein or Tesla in the future much like they don't both discussing Brahmagupta or some other forgotten luminary in the past? It's more important to have a generation of highly trained and skilled, independent thinkers capable of innovation than to curate a museum of great scientists of the past, a place where the layman can venerate the bones of the saints which has lately come to resemble Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum picketed by shrieking flat Earthers.

I am not sure what to call the psychosis that insists on championing, and sometimes resurrecting, B-list figures. Alkan the musician comes to mind and perhaps both Einstein and Tesla, one of whom was a bit of a plagiarist and the other simply nuts. Perhaps since the main playing field has already been claimed and controlled, an 'arriviste' type seeks to establish a whole new playing field. Upsetting the board accidentally of course, when about to lose a game of chess for example, comes to mind.

The closest thing to a unified mathematics I am aware of is the ambitious Langland's Program. There's nothing like it in history and it's rather hard to describe without being too technical. Basically, it's a web of not so obvious equivalences between very different theories like for example a duality between certain (modular) Elliptic equations and Modular Forms, later proved Taniyama Shimura conjecture which led to a proof of Fermat's last theorem. Another example is the relation between 26-dimensional Bosonic string theory, the automorphism group of the Griess algebra, and the simple Monster Group. There's much more to it but the theme is how completely different theories can be exactly equivalent. The advantage of this is that if theory A has an intractable problem but it's equivalent to theory B and there's a dictionary between A and B you can solve your problem in a different theoretical framework then transform your answer back to the original framework. A similar web of dualities was discovered by Edward Witten and Juan Maldacena involving String theory and Yang Mills theory. So it could be a unification of mathematics and possibly of physics itself. For example, no one would have thought the Monster group had anything to do with String theory and vice versa. There are more points of entry linking physics to maths. I am but a humble Algebraic Geometer and this is a lofty game which only a few people in the world can play. I'm not one of them.

any further references to UK historian David Irving being a 'pro-Nazi revisionist'? AFAIK he's one of the very few whose research goes against the generally upheld dictat that "mostly Jews" perished during the H*caust (and has suffered greatly for it) - https://www.unz.com/proberts/the-case-of-david-irving-shows-that-nothing-is-more-dangerous-than-telling-the-truth/

"....Irving's remarkable documentary findings had completely upended our knowledge of that conflict and its origins, with his books selling in the many millions. His entire approach to controversial historical issues was to rely as much as possible upon hard documentary evidence, and his total inability to locate any such documents relating to the Holocaust drove [mainstream and other] ethnic-activists into a frenzy of outrage, so after many years of effort they finally managed to wreck his career...." - https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-holocaust-denial/

You should really look at Unz Review and Irving's works with a much more critical eye. Unz has been publishing such pro-Nazi revisionism as 'Hitler The PeaceMaker' for years (see:https://www.unz.com/article/hitler-the-peacemaker/) or Hitler Was Right (see: https://www.unz.com/aanglin/hitler-was-right-and-you-filthy-rats-know-me-and-my-friends-would-all-say-it-to-your-weasel-faces/ ) ... For Irving... read more Irving and compare with reality of what is knowable about Hitler and satanic high priests of Thule Society eugenicists

The whole point Matt is when do you let people go from the past? The Germans know that Nordstream was bombed by the Americans but feel compelled to look the other way. Why? Because of something seriously bad they grandparents did 80 years ago. That's crazy! They can barely afford anything. The Eisenhower Death Camps are an unpleasant fact of history and whether it was payback or whatever it was, it was excessive. It's also poisoned us as a nation because ugly things like genocide always ruin the perpetrator. Look at us now. Did what we do to German POWs help us? No. It help make us worse and directly led to other negative things. There were far more sensible alternatives to handling a defeated enemy. That brings us to the present day, Ukraine is in ruins and nearly all the young men are dead. I know Ukraine is run by Neo Nazis, something the Western media denies. They are pretty repulsive people. What do we do about it? Most of Ukraine are not politically well balanced reasonable people. At what point do we say this went too far are we're stopping it? Or do we keep saying Putin is Hitler and keep feeding Ukrainians to the Russian military machine? I say, let them make peace and figure out some way to move on to some sort of recovery. For that matter, why are we calling Putin Hitler? That's another crazy unhinged defamation which stokes conflict needlessly and is very dangerous. Putin is Putin. He's an irrelevant dead and gone person from over eighty years ago who nobody likes but his name is brought up continuously today to demonize Russia and to get the world to look the other way while Israel goes on slaughtering Palestinians. A good portion of the toxic brew we're dealing with today is because we can't move on from the past. It's destructive. Enough is enough.

thank you for this comment. for sure we need to get out from under the deadly cloud of international eugenicism. Ron Unz' work is (indeed) a source to be read with a critical eye. but some of Irving's publications and older presentations (ten years ago still findable on utube) introduced a much needed critical perspective on some of the otherwise badly researched post-war claims of the Jewish holocaust and the German 'death camps' - didn't he introduce the idea the latter were brutal work camps for inmates from all over Europe, exploited for some of the largest well-known industrial companies? in that respect Irving's work is important and the next step is, indeed, discussing and evaluating it.

If there had not been a Holocaust, the jews (and 'the Aliies') would have had to invent one. And there was a Holocaust, but not the one Hollwood embedded in our culture and our minds. After all, the 'victors' were starving to death and exposing (to the elements) millions of German civilians and POWs. Probably around 6 million. A lot of smoke and mirrors were needed to conceal that fact. Needs must in history.... needs must. It is time to free ourselves of the bullshit though. Unz is a leader in that process.

Why do you deprive Unz of the right to assess his own tribe? Your view may be 'other', but by what authority is it more valid? And are you even a jew, by any, mostly now bastardized, sense of the word?

Great stack on Tesla (I've heard the first 3!)--gotta admit I wuz one 'a the duped (an' I thought the pigeons were more sweet than sinister but now I'm'a rethinkin' that... kinda creepy stuff!)

1000 thanks "fer" this comment Matt--

Ron Unz has promoted this malarkey fer years but, 'specially now, he'z quoted around the "innertubes" (chapter & verse!) as if he wuz "Veritas" incarnate. He'z no dummy (I'll own it) but lackin' the instantly offensive turn-off mien of the likes of the vile an' fairly frightenin' Brother Nathanael, Unz is revered by all manner of "otherwise intellgent" folks. Paul Craig Roberts is certainly part of his new "fold," many others (ta my shock, MCM has even quoted 'im if I'm recallin'...).

IMHO Unz has -- along with Makow-- promoted hate for those of us "chews" who, unlike those 2, have the gall not ta hate ourselfs or our heritage in spite of some scoundrels present an' past b/c who ain't got a few rotten eggs in their basket from time ta time.

(I also differentiate 'tween the political "zionists" who were knowin'ly part of a British-orchestrated political movement that sold the chews a bill'a sale an' laser pernted them to go ta the "promised" land... AND the decent folks--includin' all my ancestors--that ALL called themselves zionists (still do) b/c to them zionism meant ONLY one thing--a home, no more no less (aka refuge).

An' havin' a fambly that had ta escape the tzars purges mebbe poundin' sand--as one branch did (!) made sense. My ma's in her 80's now an has no idea who Balfour wuz... (an' ta her, Rotchschilds are just bankers & fawncy wine makers--no more no less)--she has 2 masters degrees but never looked at origin stories an' wouldn't know a globalist from a gumball--go figure.

I like when you said (I think it wuz to MelK?) that Israel had a dishonest start--it's correct-- but most chews had no idear of the dishonesty or subterfuge... STILL don't! So all this "anti-zionism" means that all jews that don't want Israel erased offa the map--even given a dishonest start they still don't know about!--are bein' thrown under the bus (or bombed under it more like)

https://thcsofdaisymoses.substack.com/p/oh-yoohoo-israel?

(clearly I'm notta fan've NetAnYooHoo but not wantin' ta see Israel sink inta the Red Sea wither!)

IMO, cuz Unz, Makow, & team seem legit--their speech measured (if distorted), not rantin', their approach "intellectual" (citin' sources) an' they are of the tweed + sueded elbow professorial kinda gents -- they are believed an' rarely questioned. They promote not only Irving but Hoffman, Hudson, an' others who play fast 'n loose with facts. Not sure what's ta be done (no, I ain't quotin' Lenin here!). Most folks don't realize that the same pickle Israel is in--is the one we're all in now--Niemoller went inta the papershredder some time ago...

Also ta be noted (as surely you know) is that we've seen how supposed lack of (known) evidence kin support a very untrue narrative as can "select" evidence (my favorite one is that the concentration "camps" were all swell joints, like vacation spots!, due to one dang "showcase" example where theater & concerts were performed!). As can dok-tured evidence too (past & present but incredibly there are many who say the jews in the holocaust photos were not Jews at all b/c no jews died--an' that most of the photos were made up. An' Vera Sharav is lyin' (yup, I've seen so much dissin' on this poor woman it breaks my heart). Few like her who can tell the truth are still alive. As Ike said:

“Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses -because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”

― Dwight D. Eisenhower

We see how evidence is bein' destroyed as we speak (Alex Jones--whatever ya think of him--said his entire testimony in the defamation trial wuz erased!). I'm sure the script for the Apollo landin' an' the outtakes were similarly destroyed--so duz that mean the production didn't take place? hogwarsh

If ya wanna go down a VERY dark Nazi hole, the confessions of Kay Griggs about the Nazi-Illuminatti gay hazin' rituals an' satanic stuff an' even killin'--all brought inta the US (includin' the Modern Milley Terry) via the PaperClip parade--is quite horrific:

An' Hitler wuz totally infused with this dark stuff... no hero ta me...

ps I loved yer actin' Matt! compli-mint comin' from an' unemployed thespian here due ta not takin' the "countermeasures" so I do my own bit'a karacter actin' in print now!, writin' "in the vernacular")

pps the "myth" that it wuzn't chews killed has many holes but one I've read about is the mistaken idear that 10% of the victims were gay--that wuz Kinsey who made it up! Judith Reisman (who spent her entire life tryin' ta warn folks 'bout the dangers of Kinsey) took that apart ages ago--sorry don't have the link / paper handy) but it's well-done research. (per above, on the contrary, the Nazi dudes were all havin' a "gay ol' time" which kept them loyal, albeit traumatized!)

The use of kindness shown to the lesser skilled is indeed the reason for mankind's failure to advance as quickly as we should. Religion had a role to play in this. Women, with their nature to nurturing, expanded it beyond the child to the adult, making things easier for them. While meant as a kindness was anything but. How blacks were taught didn't apply to the real world. Their skills lesser than others were forced into lower skilled jobs that paid less. Looking back at the mistakes of the chosen class of blond and blue eyed as superior was highly flawed. The practice of breading humans as we did animals was closer to correct. attributes wanted and unwanted were bread in and out of animals. The results provided stronger animals that were also resistant to disease. Applying this to humans was more difficult. how do we recognize hidden traits that show up after a couple of generations? healthy couples producing a child that has a major flaw. would that child prosper? would they pass the flaws on genetically. The ability to know the flaws would be advantageous. stopping a fetus before it becomes a viable being long before pain can be felt would be desirable. if a egg couldn't be produced by the woman or sperm by the man We have ways to offer them a child that has greater chances of being healthy. a solution that many use. why not as marriage is proposed we offer testing that provides answers before more aberrant choices must be made. We also see the objection to mixing of the races. yet the offspring trend to be quite intelligent and desirable. it is these beliefs that are fostered by a superior race postulates that foster most race attitudes. The ideas that some races are more skilled than others is untrue. skills come to the ones that are pushed as a child and parents that don't accept failure as an option. the reason that so many Asian races excel, not because of superior brains. The study of our genomes that form what we are should be the prime knowledge we seek. finding our weaknesses that when found can be altered to correct the conditions. the danger would always be present of creating the super human. the danger comes like the light bulb that gets a jolt that causes it to burn brightly but lasts but a short time. i suspect the same would happen to the body forced to burn brighter. We must strive for quality of life. living healthy until the last day we are here. enjoying our family and remembered by grandkids as a grandparent remembered as a person that was fun and not the bedridden person that smelled like pee. That would be the goal I would set.-------------------I, Grampa

indeed: 'We must strive for quality of life', yet that also includes the weak, the hurt, the vulnerable. perhaps this differs between cultures, but it's part of our humanity to take care of those who need it.

Expand full comment

Supporting and caring for the weak has always been the trait of human nature. it is what our moral basis that defines humanity. Eliminating the problems without compassion isn't wise. it isn't predictable. First, we must define what is desirable to continue our race as viable well into the future. Intelligence isn't the only thing necessary. Even if we are all equal in intelligence, we must have beings with strength to span all areas needed to support mankind. I have found people with exceptional skills who set goals for a lifestyle they enjoy because of the physical work needed. The one mistake that is made id to demand that life is fair. We gain no advantage for people when we lower standards so they may qualify for jobs they don't have the skill to excel. Diversity or gender offers nothing for success. As an example, I offer my life experience. Born dirt poor to an Irish immigrant and mother with a third-grade education, I never had the high IQ needed for success. What I had was parents that told me Never say "I can't". as a result and with only a high school education I have an electrical Master's license, owned my company and successfully became a millionaire. Now at 80 and raised two fine young ladies with their own success stories and provided me with three grandchildren and three great grandchildren. One, the boy has learning disabilities that like myself, I won't let him say I cant. He is and will overcome these problems to function and be able to contribute to society. I dont think it should be up to government to set standards ( or lower them) to provide the easy path for them. Each individual is unique. Just as the blind has braille to provide a way to learn and function on their own, they have the way forward. having standards lowered for them provides no kindness. I offer one last thing. I hired a young black man who answered my add for laborer. he couldnt fill out my job application. he couldnt read or write. yet he had a high school diplomia. How? he was the football star in high school. passed along because of their need not his. he was a good worker and learned everything. My wife taught him to read and write in one month. we enrolled him in an electrical apprenticeship. today he is a master electrician with his own company. he is prime example of the damage done by passing these kids without teaching them. was this man stupid? clearly not. it was the schools that failed him. concerned more with the final data reported than the child who needed the real education that would have learned if it was demanded of him. I know I have gotten lengthy in my post. I have strong feelings about what the "good intentions" do for out children. children taught to depend upon government to level the playing field teaches them that they must have government to survive. while not said, sets standards that they are inferior. not because they are but because gov. needs victims to justify their jobs. thanks for letting me get this out. it feels good to spout off and relive my blood pressure.

great comment, big TQ. it's exactly my personal outlook on life and on supporting children and recognising their potential. I've been teaching for many years: providing the 'tools' with which those who weren't as smart as the smartest of the pack could discover and develop their own skills has always been one of my priorities (sometimes a lonely position, but that's another story). lowering standards, as you've put so well, puts limitations and doesn't help anyone or solve anything. it's like young children: they always try to belong to the group of older ones, thus having to reach out and over their own capabilities. it's called "growing up" (not "growing down")! be well Grampa :-))

you are in a position to influence the mistakes made using the compassion to help people that may need to use learning methods different from the normal standards. I offer my event with a young black man from Detroit. I as a contractor need labor. Jobs that require only following instructions. This day I had a young man come for a job. He had a problem. he couldn't fill out the forms we gave him. he couldn't read or write. He had a diploma! Well we got them filled out and we put him to work. He proved to be reliable and a hard worker. my wife taught him to read and write in just a few weeks. I saw his potential so I enrolled him in an apprenticeship. Today he is a Master electrician with his own company. The problem was school failed him. They saw his value as a football star that could win games for them. education was secondary and he was passed from grade to grade and didn't have the skills for everyday life. Clearly he wasn't stupid. how many are just like him. false data for government to maintain the higher average to qualify for gov. grants. He couldn't even qualify to work at any fast food chain. Not enough janitor jobs to go around. Unless you have seen the problem first hand like I did it is hard to believe. Now at 80 and long retired I find the problems are the same. I have confronted the school boards to help save my great grand kids. I had one time I was escorted out while I had the floor to speak. the next meeting I started to speak again and one recognized me and I was arrested for causing problems in the meeting. because I did some work for a judge I went to see him and filed a complaint against the school board. I had the media present that time and they refused to call on me even when no one else had a hand up . they tried to close the meeting that had just started when I stood up and approached the council. they again tried to eject me until I showed the cop the papers filed with the court. I served them myself telling them I would work to see they would be replaced. which I was able to get three of five removed. Now I am too old and don't have the stamina to sit in long meetings. It was gratifying to stand and tell these people they are fired. We need more people like yourself that have first hand knowledge of what is happening. The problem is that the media wont report what is happening to these kids. one of the major problems comes from the need to have two incomes to survive. parents are not available to attend meetings. Even if you help one child, it builds a better world. Having people that are productive and not dependent getting government out of our education. I know I am lengthy so thanks for reading my rant.------ I, Grampa

I find Matt's article really shocking. Tesla an eugenicist? So much for being humanitarian and inspired from God. I now spit on this name...

He may have experienced mental illness (see https://gizmodo.com/the-mad-scientist-hall-of-fame-nikola-tesla-5648455 ), so he should've been deemed 'unfit' by the same eugenicist decree (maybe that's why he didn't marry).

But the last 3 paragraphs (beginning with <<< Is it possible that Tesla’s 186 foot Wardenclyffe Tower financed by JP Morgan was the “mysterious means” referred to by US Naval Intelligence in 1917 to communicate messages wirelessly across the Atlantic?>>>), plus the commentary on Rudolph Steiner, seem to be pure speculation.

Hi, Matt, I really appreciate your work and have found it all very helpful, with the exception of your understanding of Rudolf Steiner, who was in no way connected with the beliefs of the Nazis or Crowley. The account you give of his work on esoteric science and Christian Rosenkreuz is very superficial, misleading, and slanderous. If you read more of his work and tried to understand where he is coming from, you would never make statements as you have about him.

I've read alot of Steiner at this point, and I don't see why you are taking the position you are taking. Like, have you read the lecture I cited Esoteric Christianity and the Mission of Christian Rosenkrutz? https://rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA130/English/RSP1984/19121218p02.html

Expand full comment

My reaction to your statements on Steiner's work and points of view comes from my experience of having studied his work for over thirty years, not having just read a few lectures, and from my many years of working with his understanding of the human being and our spiritual origins as a Waldorf grades teacher. I think your understanding of Steiner's writings comes from a materialistic point of view, which, yes, may make some things he says appear to be insane, but you do not have the larger picture. You are doing a disservice to humanity by discrediting Steiner as you do.

One would be shocked to know that Hitler went to Tibet not for Buddhism but for an ancient original religion of Tibet called BON. 99% of humanity does not know about BON religion.

Bön is an indigenous religion of the Tibetans. As a shamanistic religion, it is characterized by mystic rituals, spells, and spirit manipulation. This religion involves much emphasis on meditative practice. It was the major religion of the people of Tibet before Buddhism found its way.

The current traditions of Buddhism such as prayer wheels, sky burials, prayer flags, spirit traps, festival dances, and rubbing holy stones have all come from the Bon religion.

The Potala Palace, Menri and Yungdrung monasteries, were the center of study of Bön practices. There were more than 300 monasteries in Tibet belonging to BON which were captured by the Buddhist.

Can you believe that the prayers wheels we see associated with Buddhist is actually stolen from BON religion, even today if you research there is a battle between BONs and Buddhists (supported by CIA Dalai Lama, Chinese and Indian government) 99% of everything we know as Tibetan Buddhism is actually a COPY OF BON, the Chinese occupation of Tibet was to destroy BON not Buddhism as such

1938–1939 German expedition to Tibet was to steal ancient artifacts left by BON monks. Even the Tibetan Book of Dead was actually called Bon-po books of the dead

I came to know that even the word BONFIRE originated from Tibet shamans from BON religion as they used to light up flames 15 feet high and whoever was near it used to get cured from various health problems. Dan winter explains it well

Wow, the level of discourse here has really hit rock bottom.

Who is mimicking a German accent?

I suppose it is incumbent upon me to remind everyone of the vast amount of authentic footage of millions of Germans attending Hitler rallies and events by Leni Riefenstahl and others.

And the hundreds if not thousands of civilians and military, Gestapo and SS who lived next to and/or ran the concentration camps in Germany, Poland, Holland, etc.

When the Nuremberg Trials were being organized, the US Army created a special unit to hunt down the thousands of canisters of film the German made. They followed up leads all over Germany, trying to get ahead of hiding places which were burnt to the ground. The director John Ford was one of the people in charge. The Russians had a huge stockpile and handed them over. These films were used during the Nuremberg Trials to show that while having a trove of documents and papers and testimony was great, greater still was showing what they did on film which they created themselves.

As Matt has pointed out elsewhere, 1984 and Animal Farm are handbooks on how to take a supposedly civilized society of high culture, which Germany had, Beethoven, Mozart, Heine, Goethe, etc., and turn them into brutes.

David Irving, imo is a major POS and was proven in an English court to be a liar and spent time in prison and imo should never have been let out. Calling him a historian besmirches the careers of actual historians.

Hardly any Germans in America were sent to prison, it was the Japanese-Americans, who were true patriots, who were sent to camps, same in Canada. Conveniently, while they were otherwise occupied in trying to exist in terrible conditions and climates, their properties and businesses were seized and they were left with nothing.

All of the European countries who also embraced Nazism in the 30s and 40s, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Hungary, Denmark, Austria, Croatia, etc., deserve to feel guilt forever so far as I'm concerned.

It is very clear to me that Crowley and his bunch were behind every sick thing we see today, the LGBTQ WXYZ and BLM and Antifa and the Masons and the Odd Fellows and all the other secret societies. Matt, you didn't mention Philip K. Dick, I wonder what you think of him.

Heinlein and Hubbard and all those other f*ckers as well as Owsley handing out LSD like candy to the rock musicians in the LA canyons and the Haight in SF creating a lost generation of stoners.

Abbie Hoffman hated the hippies, he saw it was social engineering to destroy a real movement against the military-industrial complex which was polluting everything. He tried to speak at Woodstock but they had some goons beat the shit out of him and throw him off the stage.

Meanwhile Wavy Gravy and his band of groovies set up tents for people to come to if the drugs they were taking were creating really f-d up head trips.

And don't forget Aquino and the Presidio, the SF military base...mk ultra and all kinds of horrific shit went on there. Why is it most of the people who claimed they were abducted and tortured by UFO's lived on or next to military bases and at least one family member, usually the father, was in the military? Was the UFO abduction a cover story for mk ultra torture going on in these bases?

in Holland there were no concentration camps, only several so-called Durchgangsläger, temporary stops on the way to be transported eastwards (to the labour camps).

John Huston is Hollywood, Hollywood is PR and image-building, so the real question should be: how much influence did Hollywood have on its affiliated filmers and photographers (including Alfred Hitchcock), who were set to work in post-war Germany? or why didn't they also film the destruction and despair in the Japanese camps?

finally, on the idea that "6 million J*ws" died in the H*locaust: yes many Jews died, but also many others (forced labour on an industrial scale tends to do that) and this number itself has been presented in a sophisticated information strategy dating back at least to 1915, as can be seen in pre-war, leading American and European newspaper articles - https://archive.org/details/old-newspapers-report-six-million-jews-1915-1938

peace out.

It was also the Korda brothers who got their boost serving the Allies' propaganda machine. An astonishing number of future Hollywood 'Greats' paid their dues fabricating reality in the post-war period. And the less said about the talentless, non-entity and opportunist Marlena Dietrich, the better. She may have been the world's first 'celebrity' - famous for being famous.

You are so ignorant it is astounding...why do you use the name Franz Kafka, who was Jewish?

The Korda brothers were Hungarian Jews who emigrated to England and helped make many of the great British films of the 1930s and 1940s including "The Scarlet Pimpernel" with the great Jewish British actor Leslie Howard.

Marlene Dietrich received many honours, including from France, for the secret work she did against the Nazis, risking her life many times. You have no idea what a hero she was. And she also helped many European Jews escape to Britain or the USA, including children. On the face she was performing for the troops, but she was sent into many dangerous places all of which she did voluntarily. I knew her grandson she was the most amazing person. And a great performer.

Matt you must be shocked at the level of vitriol here against your research and articles, and how hatred of the Jewish People and anyone who is with them keeps coming up. I hope you can have a Moderator who can deal with this because these posts are not enlightening in any way, and are, in fact, spewing hatred and lies. Please do something.

The figures from the International Red Cross, postwar in 1945 I believe, were 257,000 deaths in the labor camps (there were no "Death Camps:" except in the fervid imaginations of Hollywooders) from all causes - mostly typhus. The other figures are fabrications (lies) for various political and propaganda purposes.

There are more holes in your argument than in the Titanic. They may be smaller but still enough to sink the vessel you are floating your argument in. If I was to compare your stream-of-unconsciousness compendium with chicken soup, I would say that, though it looks nourishing, there is some very strange chicken in that soup.

Right sure! And when they could not find stuff to film they had Alfred Hitchcock and those Hungarian brothers fake some. Hollywood never stopped faking the story. Why throw away a good thing? The war and post war propaganda became US culture, such as it is. Or were you not aware of that? You guys are one-trick ponies and humiliate yourselves unwittingly and frequently. Not everything you learned in schule and Hollywood was true. And please explain the carbon copy, if not Ur example, of Nazis which inhabit Israel today, pretending to be jews and now committing turbo-genocide of actual Semites- Palestinians - with such relish and impunity.

I'm not sure whether your mimicking the German accent for Rudolph Steiner, Hitler, and other German figures, adds or detracts from your presentation. Since I grew up during and after the Second World War, many films portrayed the evil doers with thick German accents. My son now lives and works in Germany and such prejudices have not been easy to overthrow, but I think we should do our best not to reinforce them. Plus it’s beginning to sound more like a comic book!

As always the material is fascinating.

Now why is that? Why do Americans have such an indelible imprinting of evil doers with thick German accents? Why no mention of the Eisenhower Death Camps which starved over a million Germans to death? Why no mention of Allied atrocities such as shooting Germans attempting to bring food to their starving family members? Hollywood created a large portion of our reality today. After the fire bombing of Dresden which left Germany looking like a lunar landscape, the rape and torture of German civilians, turning German into a free for all brother for the Allied "good guys" to trade sex for food it became necessary to turn the Germans into VILLAINS and more evil than they really were. Instead of a few Germans being flakey enthusiasts of occultism (a complete waste of time) there had to be some dark Satanic secret to match all the evil atrocities they've done which were wildly exaggerated. Remember, these had to be the most evil people ever and all sorts of cartoonish myths and exaggerations (made up long after the fact) were constructed to cover up atrocities committed by Americans and the Eisenhower administration. History is a set of lies agreed upon by the winners. Here we are eighty years after the fact and Germans are still taught a horrific level of guilt and self hatred which is quite destructive to Europe as a whole. When will it be enough? When will they finally get to move on? An entire generation of people in Europe are being defamed over something the grandparents likely had nothing to do with so long ago. Few Europeans today have any interest in flakey occultism. Somehow it keeps getting brought up, perhaps to excite American Evangelicals and Conservatives to fight the good fight for the umpteenth time since WWII while their Liberal counterparts are content to spread Freedom and Democracy around the globe whether they like it or not. Statecraft is not run by flakey men with an interest in the occult. They are steely psychopaths who use any means necessary to accomplish their goals, think Donald Rumsfeld. Haven't people caught on by now that we should put the brakes on the defamation, vilification and lies that invariably precede war? Have you looked at Gaza lately? Where are all the Evangelicals denouncing this?

The people you describe actually had no concrete knowledge of anything and most of their "ideas" were obscure - to put it mildly. Tesla probably was a Satanic figure. He apparently was a sodomite, had the morality of one and did not go out, avoided sunshine and destruction was the purpose of every "invention" he produced. Only 2 or 3 pictures of him exist and his eugenic views are those of a ignorant cretin.

No vilification or ostrazising is intended. People, however, should be aware of the irrefutable fact that the morality of homosexuals is different from that of heterosexuals.

The Russians turned over thousands of cans of film which the Nazis shot themselves because they wanted the Nazis to be prosecuted successfully.

This wasn't PR or image building, this was prosecuting war criminals.

The Japanese had their own film industry between WW1 and WW2 and there is footage of the horrors they inflicted on their prisoners. There was a Japanese Nuremberg trial in Japan after the war and many generals and other top-ranking Japanese were either executed or served life sentences.

There were concentration camps in The Netherlands.

Some of the people were moved to other camps but not all.

Everyone knows the Jewish population of Europe were not the only ones who suffered, Gypsies, Homosexuals, anti-Nazis, priests and nuns, were also murdered, as well as Poles, Russian soldiers who were captured etc., but the Jewish People had the greatest loss of SIX MILLION PEOPLE.

To deny this is to de facto murder them twice.

You come on here continually spreading your anti-Semitic garbage; I will always stand for the truth of what happened to my People.

The only reason I am here responding is because I want others who are on here reading and posting to see that there is someone who will.

Nikola Tesla invented and spoke of ways to generate unlimited free energy, perfectly sterilized water, and unlimited nitrates for fertilizer. That doesn't point to "Eugenics". Unless your talking about Rockefeller Foundation and JP Morgan/Chase. In addition, he spoke of how Niagara Falls displaced the need for 5 Million slaves and how Nikola Tesla's A/C motor in your washing machine was the most important innovation to end Women's Suffarage. That's just a start. However, he does lay the blame of human production on stupid people "morons" and religious zealotry. In Problem Of Increasing Human Energy of 1900. @ TeslaLeaks.com
