The home of scary logos. Or at least logos you may find creepy or unsettling. Examples may include Screen Gems, Viacom's V of Doom, Oz Film, Horror Factory, etc. Talk about them, discuss about them, upload some of your newest finds. The only rule here is NO SHITPOST LOGOS like on https://freakylogo.fandom.com/wiki/Scary_Logos_Wiki. I don't want to see stuff like "Logos that scare random cartoon character" or "The Cleveland Show logo is scary for some reason".

It's interesting to see the hundreds of layers of people and corporations bypassing the will of the people.
" "Faith-based leaders and institutions play such a significant role in reminding us of our common humanity," said John Bridgeland, Co-Founder and CEO of the COVID Collaborative. "With these powerful words from Pope Francis and the Cardinals and Archbishops from across the globe, their message will inspire millions to take action to 'love thy neighbor' during this pandemic."
" This project is one of the "It's Up To You" campaign's tentpole collaborations with trusted messengers, delivering fact-based and life-saving information to populations hesitant about the COVID-19 vaccines, helping them to make informed decisions for themselves and their families. O
ther influencers and trusted messengers that have been involved include: former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter and former First Ladies Michelle Obama, Laura Bush, Hillary Clinton and Rosalynn Carter; musicians Foreigner, Eric Church, Ashley McBryde and Darius Rucker; actors Wanda Sykes, John Leguizamo, Luis Guzman and Loni Love; athletes Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jaren Jackson, Jr., Chester Pitts, Sean Johnson, Preston Wilson, Drew McIntyre and RockyNoHands; faith leaders Bishop TD Jakes, Dr. Barbara Williams-Skinner, Rev. Dr. Walter Kim, Fr. Manuel Dorantes, and Rev. Gabriel Salguero; medical experts Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Tom Frieden, Dr. Kizzmekia S. Corbett, PhD, and Dr. Cameron Webb; and more. To date the effort has engaged over 1,124 influencers to develop 1,638 pieces of content, with a cumulative reach of 50 million. "

2023.04.20 04:29 ShadowGirl07 [Talk] Are winner commercials from TV contests considered lost media?
I won a contest to meet the Naked Brothers Band back in 2008 (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Naked_Brothers_Band_(TV_series)) if you don't know who they are), via a Nickelodeon contest when I was 13. My mom and I have copies of the winner announcement commercial that announces me, what I did and the footage where I was an extra in the
Polar Bears movie (I'm in a large crowd scene near the end). Some of the working files we have has stuff that I said and did during the trip, but didn't make the final cut. We got these from the person who made the commercial... or edited it, my memory's fuzzy on that one.
In any case, I've been considering maybe posting it online (uncertain about YT, b/c idk if Viacom or whoever has ownership of NBB stuff would Copyright-strike my ass). Would something like THAT count as lost media? I've tried to look up stuff about the contest itself, but nothing comes up when googling it... nor do pretty much of any other NBB contests.

2023.01.16 08:31 Jenny_Wakeman9 My Life as a Teenage Rabbot Wiki: A wiki about a fictional scrapped fanfic turned into fictional TV series I'm developing! Currently in WIP status. :)
My Life as a Teenage Rabbot Wiki, or known as the Rabbotpedia, is run by only one person, that happens to be myself. I had to ban a former administrator over things I cannot say on here, so I'm the only one person running it all.
Note: The CSS code used on the wiki is borrowed from several wikis, as I'm not a pro at CSS, so credit goes to them. In case it violates anything on the customization policy, I will clear it out of the Common.CSS page ASAP.
Anyway, with that said, onto what it is!
My Life as a Teenage Rabbot follows the fun and exciting adventures of a robotic rabbit named,
Gwendolyn Sherwood the Rabbot, or better known as “Dimitri”, a nineteen-year-old teenage robotic rabbit girl with fourteen adopted sisters. In each episode, Dimitri has to fight against all sorts of evil, both old and new foes that plague her planet greatly while maintaining her job of delivering pizza in 30 minutes or less or else it's free.
This fictional series, later followed by this very wiki, was created by Twitter and Fandom user Wicker Doodles, or known as “Wicker Basket” and “Cheese Doodles” and former co-creator, MCandCreations, and was inspired by My Life as a Teenage Robot. MLaaT-Rabbot currently airs on ABC affiliate television station, KTRB-TV/DT ABC 54, where it was simulcast on NBC in English in a 480i video feed, 2.1 Dolby Digital stereo audio on channel 54.2, KTRB-SD1. It is not meant to be confused with the show under the similar name, which is My Life as a Teenage Robot.
My Life as a Teenage Rabbot, somewhat much like My Life as a Teenage Robot, the show takes place in a futuristic version of 2008 instead of 2003.
The My Life as a Teenage Rabbot Wiki is a fan site and is in no way affiliated with Nickelodeon, My Life as a Teenage Robot, Viacom, and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates and other companies
This started off as a fanfic that was scrapped in 2022 due to loss of interest in myself from writing it, so a former friend and I decided to make a wiki on it. And to this very day since June of last year, the wiki's been blossoming slowly but surely like a flower, since this is more of a hobby passion project of mine which I'm proud of.
In case this violates anything of self-promoting your own wiki here, I'd be happy to remove this, since this is my first time posting here, and I'm a total noob at maintaining a wiki.

2023.01.15 16:38 Planet-Minecraft Nelvana Enterprises
| Pierwsze logo (15 października 1978 - 2 kwietnia 1988) Logo: Widzimy kredytową wersję Niedźwiedzia Polarnego patrzącego w górę na gwiazdę, jak widać na pokazach Nelvany z lat 1985-2004, z łukiem lub bez. Poniżej znajduje się napis „NELVANA”, „NELVANA LIMITED” lub „A NELVANA PRODUCTION”, czasem z informacjami o prawach autorskich. Wariant: Na wydruku Rock & Rule (1983) logo jest żółte , a nie niebieskie jak w wersji teatralnej. Technika: Brak. Muzyka/Dźwięki: Początkowy lub końcowy temat filmu, prawdopodobnie cisza lub prawdopodobnie końcowy temat programu. Dostępność: - Pojawił się na początku lub na końcu filmów wyprodukowanych przez Nelvanę z lat 70. i 80. XX wieku, począwszy od Diabła i Daniela Mouse .
- Było to również widoczne w Rock & Rule , The Care Bears Movie , The Wild Puffalumps i Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation .
- Można go również zobaczyć w kreskówce Star Wars: Droids , serialu aktorskim The Edison Twins oraz na wydrukach wczesnych animowanych programów telewizyjnych Nelvany z początku lat 80 . z tymi postaciami z Cleveland).
- To było używane w tandemie z kolejnym logo do 1988 roku.
Drugie logo (13 września 1986 - 1 czerwca 2001) Logo: Na czarnym tle niebieski kwadrat z czerwoną obwódką i białą gwiazdą pośrodku leci z prawego górnego rogu ekranu, stopniowo powiększając się i obracając w kierunku przeciwnym do ruchu wskazówek zegara, aby dopasować się do ekranu, podczas gdy gwiazda mnoży się, tworząc półkolisty kontur z siedmiu gwiazd. Pod półkolem widnieje napis „ NELVANA ”. Zarys gwiazdy świeci od lewej do prawej, a szczytowa gwiazda wysyła deszcz światła (który zaczyna się w kolorze neonowożółtym , potem przechodzi w neonowoniebieski ) wzdłuż środka półkola. Nazwa firmy świeci się na pomarańczowo , a deszcz światła rozwija się w lewo, zmieniając się w neonowoniebieskiego niedźwiedzia polarnego patrzącego w górę. Warianty: - Istnieją wersje sfilmowane i nagrane na wideo.
- Krótki wariant rozpoczyna się świecącymi gwiazdami i animacją „deszcz światła”. To gra z prędkością warp na Eek! Kot przed napisami skompresowanymi lub podzielonym ekranem. Jest to spowolnione w niektórych odcinkach Babar , Przygody Tintina i Sok z żuka . Ta wersja jest bardziej powszechna.
- Dłuższą wersję można było zobaczyć w niektórych kinowych wydaniach tamtej epoki, w tym Babar: The Movie i Care Bears: Adventure in Wonderland . Po utworzeniu logo niedźwiedź polarny stoi na tylnych łapach przez sekundę, po czym przyjmuje swoją normalną pozycję, po czym wszystkie siedem gwiazdek znika. W zależności od filmu tło będzie albo zwykłe niebieskie (jak widać na Babar: The Movie ), albo czarne (jak widać na Troskliwych Misiach: Przygoda w Krainie Czarów ).
- Specjalny program telewizyjny z 1988 roku Clifford the Big Red Dog ma rzadki wariant tła gradientowego z logo obracającym się na ekranie od środka. Niektóre odcinki Troskliwych Misiów mają to skrócone.
- Późniejsze odcinki T i T mają logo szybko obracające się w lewo, aby odsłonić logo Qintex Entertainment (aktualne wydruki, jak widać na kanale YTV Direct na YouTube, mają ten wariant przyklejony przy szóstym logo).
- Na Fievel's American Tails długa wersja logo jest pokazana w prawym górnym rogu wraz z logo Amblin Television z 1991 roku w lewym górnym rogu i krótkim logo Universal Cartoon Studios z lat 1991-2006 na dole pośrodku.
- W Family Dog to logo jest pokazane po lewej stronie obok logo Amblin Television z 1991 roku po prawej (bez części wyłączającej).
- W niemieckim dubbingu animowanego programu specjalnego z 1993 roku The Incredible Crash Dummies to logo jest pokazane po lewej stronie obok logo Lamb & Company.
- W niektórych odcinkach Blazing Dragons to logo jest wyświetlane po lewej stronie, razem z logo programu Ellipse po prawej stronie.
- W odcinkach 4 sezonu Eek! Stravaganza (odcinki z Klutterem), to logo jest pokazane na podzielonym ekranie po lewej stronie obok logo Film Roman z lat 1989-1998 po prawej.
- Odrestaurowane wydruki HD Przygód Tintina widoczne na zagranicznych wydaniach serii Blu-ray zawierają dziwaczny wariant „spowolnionej” krótkiej wersji; tutaj obraz został skurczony do środka ekranu (prawdopodobnie efekt uboczny braku oryginalnych negatywów lub taśmy logo do przywrócenia oraz konwersji serii na panoramiczny).
- W promocji The Adventures of Tintin logo zostało pokazane po prawej stronie, obok logo programu Ellipse po lewej stronie. Tutaj niedźwiedź polarny i gwiazdy są białe, a tekst „NELVANA” jest zielony .
Technika: Animowana w połączeniu tradycyjnej animacji celowniczej i wczesnej grafiki komputerowej. Muzyka/Dźwięki: narastający świst i dramatyczny motyw syntezatora, po którym następuje grzmot i buczenie przypominające dźwięk miecza świetlnego z Gwiezdnych Wojen , gdy zapala się „NELVANA”. W przypadku większości występów Nelvany z lat 90. odtwarzany był motyw końcowy, była cisza lub (rzadko) odtwarzany był motyw standardowy. Warianty muzyki/dźwięków: - Wariant tła gradientowego wykorzystywał mistyczny migoczący dźwięk z grzmotem. Niektóre programy specjalne i programy dystrybuowane poza Ameryką Północną wykorzystywały ten wariant, chociaż oryginalne transmisje My Pet Monster miały muzykę z tej wersji odtwarzaną na standardowym logo.
- W grze Care Bears: Adventure in Wonderland słychać świst, dzwonki wietrzne i marzycielski motyw z syntezatora.
- W niektórych emisjach Babara pojawia się 4-dźwiękowy ksylofon, który odtwarza logo. W połowie ksylofonu słychać nutę fletu, która gra, dopóki logo się nie skończy.
Dostępność: Niezbyt często. Tynkowanie z logo 2004 sprawiło, że nie jest już tak powszechne, ale nadal łatwo je znaleźć. - Krótki wariant nadal można zobaczyć w odcinkach Little Bear z lat 1995-2001 i wczesnych odcinkach Franklin w Nick Jr., Eek! Stravaganza (za każdym razem, gdy był ponownie emitowany, zwykle w zagranicznych sieciach Disneya), wydania Fievel's American Tails on Peacock , VHS i Netflix The Magic School Bus (seria 1994) oraz wydania VHS i DVD Care Bears w wersji Nelvana .
- Wariant kinowy pojawia się w The Care Bears 'Adventure in Wonderland (wariant z czarnym tłem) i Babar: The Movie (wariant z fioletowym tłem).
- Można go również znaleźć we wszystkich odcinkach Beetlejuice (w tym w zestawie Shout! Factory) i odcinku pilotażowym Donkey Kong Country „I Spy With My Hairy Eye”.
- Wydruki Netflix The Adventures of Tintin zachowują to logo, podobnie jak wydania DVD tego programu z 2006 roku; w zależności od regionu, wydanie Blu-ray będzie zawierało normalny wariant „spowolniony” lub wersję zmniejszoną.
- Kiedy Fox Kids ponownie nadawał The Magic School Bus w latach 1998-2002, to logo zostało pominięte.
- Krótki wariant został zachowany w niektórych odcinkach Babar , kiedy Qubo ponownie odtwarzał serial aż do jego zamknięcia; potwierdzone odcinki, w których go wykorzystano, to „My Dinner with Rataxes” i „A Charmed Life”.
Uwaga końcowa: większość programów miała to logo do 1997 r. (po użyciu w tandemie z trzecim logo poniżej), kiedy to przełączono na następne logo. Jednak mimo że logo zostało wycofane w 1996 roku, Little Bear nadal używał go do końca w 2001 roku, a wcześniejsze odcinki Franklina używały tego logo od debiutu w 1997 roku, aż do 1999 roku. Trzecie logo (2 grudnia 1995 - 30 lipca 2005) Logo: Na kosmicznym tle pojawia się błysk światła, gdy logo firmy pojawia się w CGI na tle, które wygląda podobnie do pierwszego logo, z pewnymi wyjątkami: siedmiogwiazdkowe półkole ma niebieski chromowany kontur, podobnie jak niedźwiedź polarny i tekst „NELVANA”. Wielobarwna kometa leci z prawej strony, a gdy mija gwiazdę szczytową i drugą gwiazdę po lewej stronie w półkolu, każda gwiazda zapala się. Warianty: - W Cardcaptors: The Movie istnieje rozszerzona wersja, w której występuje bardziej opóźnione pomniejszenie, kończące się animacją logo do tyłu, ale bez animacji komety.
- Istnieje jeszcze krótsza wersja logo, zaczynająca się od momentu, gdy kometa leci z prawej strony. Czasami jest to odtwarzane w zwolnionym/opóźnionym tempie.
- Niektóre odcinki Donkey Kong Country mają nieruchome ujęcie tego logo.
- Począwszy od 2002 roku, dodano napis „Nelvana is a C O r U s Entertainment Company” (z napisem „ C O r U s ” napisanym czcionką firmową), a animacja logo została przesunięta w górę z pomniejszenia.
- W programach, które Nelvana dystrybuowała na arenie międzynarodowej, słowa „Distributed By” i „INTERNATIONAL” (lub bardzo rzadko „International”) w postaci chironu pojawiają się odpowiednio nad i pod logo.
- Począwszy od 2002 r., logo jest nieco bardziej oddalane (z dodanym czarnym tłem z tyłu, na co wskazuje lampa błyskowa pojawiająca się tylko na środku), aby zmieścić się w tytule „Nelvana is a C O r U s Entertainment Company” na dole.
- Począwszy od 1997 r. URL „www.nelvana.com” był czasami dodawany pod lub nad logo.
- Istnieje wariant teatralny, w którym pięcioramienna gwiazda miga w oddali na znacznie czystszym polu gwiazd, a logo Nelvany (które wygląda bardziej metalicznie, a gwiazdy wokół łuku nigdy nie są tak widoczne), które jest odwrócone na bok, leci w kierunku ekranu i obraca się pionowo. Wariant animacji niedźwiedzia polarnego z trzeciego logo (który stoi przez chwilę na tylnych łapach) jest odtwarzany, gdy ten odwraca się w naszą stronę. Logo na końcu trochę się błyszczy.
- Wersja kredytowa pojawiła się w Tales From the Crypt w ostatnim odcinku (i jedynym animowanym), „The Third Pig”. Pojawia się również w serii Pippi Longstocking z 1997 roku z logo AB Svensk Filmindustri) , TaurusFilm i TFC Trickompany Filmproduktion GmbH.
- W japońskim dubbingu Donkey Kong Country wersja bez wiersza pojawia się w napisach i jest animowana w niestandardowym motywie końcowym.
Technika: animacja CGI. Muzyka/dźwięki: końcowy motyw programu, ogólny motyw CBS lub cisza. Począwszy od 2002 roku można było usłyszeć kompozycję firmy Animated Audio z Toronto: rozlega się dźwięk „WHOOSH”, po którym następuje nawiedzony dźwięk dzwonka, a następnie drugi „WHOOSH”. Czasami używano tylko pierwszego „WHOOSH” lub wycinano ostatnie „WHOOSH”. Było to używane głównie w rozszerzonym wariancie logo, ale trzeci wariant był również używany w standardowej długiej wersji podczas emisji Pelswick przez Nicktoons w 2004 roku . Warianty muzyki/dźwięków: W zwiastunie filmu Care Bears: Journey to Joke-a-lot słyszymy dźwięk przypominający spadającą gwiazdę przelatującą w czasie wraz z lecącą kometą. Wersja użyta tutaj to ta, która zaczyna się od przelatującej komety. Dostępność: Rzadki, ponownie, ze względu na otynkowanie z logo 2004, ale nadal łatwo go znaleźć. - Po raz pierwszy widziany w Niekończąca się opowieść: animowane przygody Bastiana Balthazara Buxa .
- To logo jest często widoczne na kanale YouTube Retro Rerun Nelvany.
- Można to zobaczyć między innymi w drugim sezonie Cyberchase , Rolie Polie Olie , pierwszych dwóch sezonach Maxa i Ruby , odcinkach Franklina po 1999 roku .
- Znajduje się również w ich angielskim dubbingu anime Cardcaptor Sakura , znanym początkowo jako Cardcaptors w tych regionach, a także w All New Tales from the Cryptkeeper .
- Był również widziany na Braceface , ostatnio widziany na Disney Channel i ABC Family (obecnie Freeform ) w USA.
- Beyblade G-Revolution zachowało to logo do końca w 2005 roku.
- Na Tubi odcinek Braceface „Up in Smoke” zachowuje tytuł Corus Entertainment.
- Było to również widoczne, gdy Nickelodeon przez krótki czas emitował My Dad the Rock Star w 2005 roku, ale emisje Nicktoons i obecne wydruki mają zamiast tego piąte logo.
- Jest to zachowane na aktualnych wydrukach serialu animowanego Ace Ventura , w tym na oficjalnych przesłanych filmach Morgan Creek i kiedy Tubi transmitował serial.
- Wariant teatralny był widziany tylko w dwóch filmach; Pippi Pończoszanka z 1997 roku i Babar: Król słoni z 1999 roku .
- Wariant „INTERNATIONAL” pojawia się na międzynarodowych grafikach pierwszych czterech sezonów The Fairly OddParents oraz na międzynarodowych grafikach Tiana .
4. Logo (2001-2004) Logo: Na białym tle widzimy półkola z siedmioma gwiazdkami, niedźwiedzia polarnego i napis „ NELVANA ” jak z poprzedniego logo, ale z ciemnoniebieskim konturem. Pod napisem „NELVANA” znajduje się adres URL „www.nelvana.com”, a pod nim napis „ A CORUS™ Entertainment Company ”. Czasami tytuł będzie zamiast tego stylizowany na „A CORUS Entertainment Company” bez kursywy). Technika: Brak. Muzyka/dźwięki: Brak. W innych przypadkach motyw końcowy programu lub ogólny motyw sieciowy. Dostępność: Rzadko. To było używane jako alternatywne logo w tandemie z poprzednim w latach 2001-2004. - W pierwszych programach pojawia się to w pierwszym sezonie Cyberchase i późniejszych odcinkach Maggie and the Ferocious Beast (powtórki Nicka Jr. zachowały logo w stanie nienaruszonym, ale na późniejszych wydrukach, takich jak wydruki DVD i emisje w Qubo , to logo zostało otynkowane z kolejnym).
- Pojawia się również na niektórych międzynarodowych drukach The Fairly OddParents . Jednym z przykładów jest odcinek „Boy Toy” / „Inspection Detection” z brytyjskiego wydania DVD „Boys in the Band” (pozostałe odcinki wykorzystują wariant „INTERNATIONAL” poprzedniego logo).
- Wersja z normalną czcionką w tytule pojawiła się w grze Beyblade V-Force na Game Boy Advance .
Piąte logo (7 września 2004-) Logo: Na czarnym tle widoczny jest tekst „ NELVANA ” z dopiskiem pod nim. Następnie biały niedźwiedź polarny leci na ekran od środka po lewej stronie, a następnie zatrzymuje się na tekście. Uderza gwiazdą w ekran, który migocze, a biała mgiełka światła tworzy się i rozprasza za logo. Logo wygląda podobnie do logo kredytowego sprzed 1985 r., Ale ma tylko jedną gwiazdkę. Bylines: - Wariant oryginalny, 2004-: Ze względu na „rozwój” spółki macierzystej Corus Entertainment Inc. .
- 2006?-: W tytule widnieje napis „ A CORUS™ ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY ”, wszystko pisane wielkimi literami i tą samą czcionką, co alternatywne logo z 2003 roku.
Warianty: - Bardziej powszechny wariant zaczyna się od niedźwiedzia polarnego, który jest już w tekście i uderza w gwiazdę.
- Podczas pierwszego pojawienia się tego logo nie było widać zamglenia dla „Inc”. wariant byline. Logo „ CORUS ENTERTAINMENT ” ma również wariant bez zamglenia, widoczny w programach takich jak Scaredy Squirrel .

- W Handy Manny i niektórych programach pokazana jest mgła.
- Istnieje niestandardowa wersja, w której niedźwiedź polarny zostaje pokryty śluzem (A la Nickelodeon Slime), co powoduje zniekształcenie niedźwiedzia polarnego i tekstu „NELVANA”, nagłówek zostaje zasłonięty przez śluz, a gwiazda obraca się wokół przed kapaniem szlam. Ten wariant był widziany w międzynarodowych i Qubo emisjach Grossology i nie pokazano zamglenia.
- Istnieje wariant, w którym „ INTERNATIONAL ” w zaokrąglonym prostokącie jest wciśnięte między nazwę firmy a tytuł. Nałożoną wersję tego wariantu można znaleźć w napisach końcowych do Franklin and the Turtle Lake Treasure .
- Istnieje nieruchoma wersja logo, którą można było zobaczyć w oryginalnych amerykańskich emisjach Grossology w Discovery Kids / The Hub (obecnie Discovery Family).
- Na aktualnych wydrukach pierwszego odcinka Committed widać niezwykle rzadką nieruchomą wersję bez gwiazdy.
- Niektóre powtórki Corduroy mają logo rozpoczynające się po uderzeniu gwiazdy.

Warianty muzyki/dźwięków: - Programy z logo z 1985 roku mogą wykorzystywać dramatyczny motyw syntezatora lub mistyczny motyw migotania zamiast normalnej muzyki.

- W zwiastunie promocyjnym Sidekick męski głos mówi „Sidekick!”.

- Pojawia się również na wielu wydaniach DVD programów Nelvany na terytoriach międzynarodowych, takich jak The Fairly OddParents (jednym z przykładów jest DVD „Superhero Spectacle”).
- Kiedy Nicktoons Network nadawał My Dad the Rock Star od końca 2005 do początku 2008 roku, pojawiło się trzecie logo, podobnie jak wydania Tubi i DVD programu.

2022.12.03 11:11 Medical_Source_1108 What if Imagi Studios never closed down and was brought by TimeWarner?
We all know that
Imagi Studios closed down in 2010. But what if they never closed down and still producing films as of today with WB acquring the company? Here's what were to happen.
List of changes
- Some of the cancelled films would be released.
- WarnerMedia (TimeWarner back then) would end up buying the company for $72 billion in 2016, becoming one of the subsidiary of Warner Bros. Animation, producing computer-animated films alongside WAG.
- Except for TMNT, which is now owned by Viacom (despite WB making the film), the library pre-2016 are now owned by WarnerMedia.

2022.11.20 19:23 Illustrious_Love3007 Remember this is MY analysis on that 2020 movie's troubled history in the 21st Century! If you don't like it, go to better posts than this.
Know why we wanted the Sonic the Hedgehog movie cancelled or done by Sonic Team with theatrical releases in Japan and distributed internationally by other companies the second the trailer and poster was teased in 2019? It all came from Sonic's design of all things; for example: the music choice, poor grasp of the source material, it's story, and the choice of music. But now that the Americans already vulgarized and ruined it, and that we spent until Valentine's Day 2020 getting used to it, nobody listened to us about the matter. Not even Jeff Fowler called it off. And all of this happened no matter how much many fans and others will rant about this movie and its potential sequel, no matter how long they say in full detail why it is doomed to fail. That's right. What is now Paramount Global never pulled the plug on the film. No matter how many times we state that even nerds deserve much better than
this,_first_trailer), ViacomCBS (2019-2022), never listened to us, like Balan Company, Mattel, and other companies, and Jeff Fowler handled criticism the wrong way, and PG and Fowler continued to give them shit starting April 2022, because that's what they thought even the nerds wanted to see and there was nothing we can do about it. Hell, even knowing that these two movies exist and we'll still exist for millennia to come, it was still proof that the franchise will never improve or redeem itself after all this is over. It will stay stuck in our minds and it will never, ever go away. Yes that's right. These movies are officially dead, with no hope whatsoever they can properly be brought to public, ever! And now that I am done with this post for real, I insist that this must stay on this subreddit forever. And I will be napping for 180 hours.

2022.09.27 21:49 BorisX5 "The Truth about the Little Mermaid" "Worse Than Woke"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqF4oVFEEJM&t=625s Assuming that Halle Bailey was cast to the role of Ariel because of wokeness instead of because of her talents seems racist to me unless you have insight on her acting and singing abilities sufficient enough to form a judgement that she does not have the sufficient talents for the part. Director Rob Marshall said in a statement "After an extensive search, it was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence, and substance — plus a glorious singing voice — all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halle_Bailey#2019%E2%80%93present:_Solo_endeavors https://thedisinsider.com/2019/07/03/halle-bailey-the-little-mermaid/. The Actual Justice Warrior makes a case that the backlash against Disney's live action film adaption of The Little Mermaid is largely misfocused. The real problem is that the film even exists. The Actual Justice Warrior argues that the adaptation is disrepectful to the art of Disney's original The Little Mermaid film. The Walt Disney Company has indeed made live action film adaptions of a number of their classic animated films, including Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, The Jungle Book, Aladdin, and Dumbo. They also made a photo-realistic version of The Lion King, and live action film adaptations of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Pinnochio are also in the works.
Some of my takeaways: the only mentioned animated films that I've watched in their entirety, perhaps minus blinking and occasional head twists, or an occasional head twist, are The Lion KIng, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin. I watched the live action Dumbo. But I do know that their live action Cinderella film had an animated short called "Frozen Fever". Frozen is a stupendously popular animated film from The Walt Disney Company. They used the Frozen Fever short as a marketing ploy for their live action remake film production of Cinderella. I've watched Frozen, Frozen Fever, and Frozen 2.
The director of the live action Beauty and the Beast adaptation Bill Condon publicly disclosed prior to its release that there was a "gay moment" in the film, when LeFou briefly waltzes with Stanley, one of Gaston's friends. This caused widespread controversy, but the film was actually pretty successful. Disney has introduced openly gay characters in other productions. However, it became apparent earlier this year that some people who had worked with Disney didn't think that the number of gay-oriented productions the company had put out was enough. After Disney declined to take a public stance on Florida's Parental Rights in Education Act, some Pixar employees complained that Disney routinely cut LGBT references out of productions. Facing backlash, even from some of their own subsidiaries, Disney reinstated a lesbian kiss scene that had earlier been cut from Lightyear. Disney also stated that it was their intention for the parental rights law to be repealed or struck down
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_and_Florida's_Parental_Rights_in_Education_Act. Disney also unveiled a plan for minority representation, which included LGBTQIA characters
https://insidethemagic.net/2022/03/disney-exec-commits-to-50-percent-characters-lgbtqia-rwb1/, sparking backlash from conservatives. Opponents supposedly feel that while LGBT people do exist in real life, there is no reason for LGBT themes to be included in media designed for children
https://www.gotquestions.org/Christian-Disney.html. I don't know who originally put this video out, but
https://youtu.be/LhqGhjiMubQ. Apparently, the backlash has been overestimated and overstated
https://www.snopes.com/news/2022/04/08/350k-disney-cancellations/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/may/17/facebook-posts/disneys-stock-did-not-drop-70-contrary-social-medi/.
Lightyear was a box office flop, and several factors have been thought to have played into this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightyear_(film)#Reception#Reception). Wikipedia describes it as a "box-office bomb" in their leed for the article on the film, but how many people really expected it to do that well? And not just because of the gay controversy. Frozen's Elsa has given many people gay vibes. It's been supposed that Frozen 3 is being made, and it's been referred to as a perfect opportunity to confirm Elsa's identity
https://insidethemagic.net/2022/06/disney-frozen-3-elsa-gay-th1/. What are the chances that they'd reveal her to be gay considering the backlash that Disney faced earlier this year for their stated intention to fight Florida's Parental Rights in Education Act and for sexual minority characters in productions? They may as well keep her single. If they have her have a romantic relationship with a man, they'd probably get accused of queer-baiting.
Why is Disney adapting classic animated films into live action movies, and not just for the stage, and not even stopping at official cast recordings of stage adaptations? Some believe that Disney is out of ideas. Their animated film Encanto was a big hit though.
I remember around the 2012-2015 period, a boy who I had class with, I believe that I was in fourth, fifth grade, or sixth grade, probably not sixth, at the time, made a comment at my school about how he watches Nickelodeon (maybe he said Nick), and something along the lines of "Disney Channel is out of ideas". Of course, as if Nickelodeon was much better. Maybe when it came to creativity, but, I think it was fourth grade, but whatever, but there was Dan Schneider. People have posted in this subreddit about Dan Schneider. I didn't know who Dan Schneider was at the top of my head at the time, and I was unaware of the sexual accusations against him at the time. I actually didn't watch live action Nickelodeon that often when I was a young kid. Nickelodeon is owned by ViacomCBS, and CBS had Charlie Rose and Les Moonves. As for those concerned about "LBGT representation in children's television"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_representation_in_children%27s_television#LGBT_representation_on_Nickelodeon.
In the discourse about Disney's new live action remake of The Little Mermaid, some have brought up Disney adapting African-American fairytales. Whether or not desire for "minority representation" factored into the casting of Halle Bailey as Ariel, why doesn't Disney do this? Maybe they will?

2022.09.26 16:03 089jonas Es gibt die Theorie, dass Archegos, als es in die Luft ging, long aauf GME war, so dass sie am 10.03.2021 mit Citadel kämpften und verloren haben und daraufhin von Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley und dem Rest der DTCC vernichtet wurden, indem sie den Preis von Archegos Long-Positionen abstürzen ließen
| Originalbeitrag von "Exceedingly", mit zusätzlichem Input gefüllt Dies Beitrag ist sehr Alufolie behaftet, aber wir lieben diesen Scheiß, richtig? Das TL;DR steht im Titel, der Rest des Beitrags sind nur meine Indizien, die das untermauern. Nichts davon ist konkret, weil Archegos bekanntlich nie ihre Positionen gemeldet hat und hauptsächlich mit Swap-Positionen gehandelt hat, die nicht gemeldet werden müssen, also nehmt das alles mit einer Prise Salz, aber seid aufgeschlossen. "Blanderson_Snooper" ist einer der besten DD-Autoren, die wir auf diesem Sub haben, und er hat vor 3-Monaten ein Archegos Fact Sheet unter dem Beitrag "Archegos Fact Sheet - What we know and how it connects to our DD on swaps, ETF shorting, and the fraudulent markets" zusammengestellt, das sehr detailliert auf die Situation eingeht und dabei alle folgenden Reporte zu Archegos berücksichtigt. Superstonk/comments/vhnc86/archegos_fact_sheet_what_we_know_and_how_it/ Wenn ihr die Zeit habt, es durchzulesen, tut es. Es gab tonnenweise Beiträge über Archegos und ich liebe jeden Affen, der sich mit all dem beschäftigt, weil ich weiß, wie zeitaufwendig es ist. Die Grundlagen der Archegos-Situation Die meisten von euch werden die Grundlagen der Archegos-Situation wahrscheinlich schon kennen, aber für alle neuen Affen hier eine kurze Zusammenfassung: - Das Unternehmen wurde von Bill Hwang geleitet, einem der zwielichtigsten Mistkerle, die je gehandelt haben. Er wurde von der SEC wegen Insiderhandels zu einer Geldstrafe verurteilt, erhielt in der Vergangenheit bereit ein Handelsverbot in Hongkong und wurde von Goldman Sachs um 2018 herum auf eine schwarze Liste gesetzt.
- Der Wert von Archegos stieg von 1,5 Milliarden Dollar im März 2020 auf 36 Milliarden Dollar im März 2021 (als das Unternehmen unterging). Das ist eine Rendite von 2.400 % in einem Jahr, was nur möglich ist, wenn man eine Menge krimineller Machenschaften einsetzt.
- Sie arbeiteten hauptsächlich mit Swaps und versteckten so ihre Positionen (132 Mrd. $ von 160 Mrd. $ des Risikos entfielen auf verschiedene Swap-Positionen)
- Für diese Swaps nutzten sie mehrere verschiedene Gegenparteien, darunter Credit Suisse, Nomura, UBS, Morgan Stanley, Mitsubishi UFJ Group, Mizuho, Deutsche, Wells Fargo und Goldman Sachs. Offensichtlich hielt Archegos jede seiner Gegenparteien über die Positionen, die sie bei ihren anderen Gegenparteien hielten, im Unklaren und log ständig über die Höhe des Risikos, das sie hatten.
Damit jeder das richtig versteht: Hedgefonds gehen zu einem synthetischen Prime Broker, um synthetische Aktien zu erwerben, und niemand denkt, dass dies ein Problem sein könnte... Selena Gomez und ein alter Kumpel sitzen am Black Jack Tisch. Alle anderen im Casino platzieren Nebenwetten (synthetische Swaps) auf die Wette der vorherigen Person. Es gibt also unbegrenzte Swaps und massive Hebelwirkung. Moment mal, die CFTC erließ die Meldungen von Swaps von 2021- 2023? Warum wohl? Dieses World Wide Casino muss vernichtet werden... (Ziemlich genau dass was Criand uns mit seiner \"Equity Total Return Swaps\" DD 2021 bereits vermittelte, lange bevor die Unterlagen zu Archegos bekannt wurden) wie praktisch... Mittlerweile sind die Berichte online, aber sie zeigen nicht, welche Swaps involviert waren und welche Transaktionen während des GME-Nieser-Ära in Verbindung mit Aktien und Futures stattfanden. Ich denke hier gibt es einfach nichts zu sehen 🙈 Das mit Swaps der Preis manipuliert werden kann legen die Dokumente nahe. Das DOJ fand also genügend Beweise für RICO-Anklagen aufgrund der Swap-Vorgänge bei Archegos. Ich frage mich, wer sonst noch so Swap-Manipulation verwendet, Hmm 🤔 Noch interessanter als die Frage, wer Swaps verwendet, ist, dass es sich hier um einen Fall von organisiertem Verbrechen handelt... und obwohl RICO mit organisiertem Verbrechen beginnt, endet es mit ORGANISATIONEN. Welche Organisation hat nun öffentlich zugegeben, Kriminelle, die in Swap-Kriminalität verwickelt sind, durch die Aufhebung der Meldepflicht von 2021 - 2023 für Swaps unterstützt zu haben? Hmm, richtig die CFTC. Es stinkt alles nach scheiße... 🤔 Anwendung von Swap Baskets bzw. Equity Total Return Swaps, wie es Criand in seiner DD beschrieb (im Unterschied zu Citadel besaß Archegos hauptsächlich long Swaps) Wie die Swaps Manipulation und Wiederverpfändung funktioniert: Archegos-Mitarbeiter gaben es vor Gericht zu. Deshalb hat die CFTC vermutlich auch die Swap-Berichte bis 2023 versteckt. Es zeigt, wie Citadel, Susquehanna, Point72 und SHFs die Märkte und die Stimmung manipulieren und die Preise künstlich kontrollieren. Es ist alles gefälscht. Dies erklärt ebenfalls die korrelierte Kursentwicklung von GME, was an einem Tag um 52 % stieg. Am selben Tag liquidierten Goldman und Morgan die Positionen von Archegos. Swaps scheinen also definitiv die Antwort auf die Preisunterdrückung und höchstwahrscheinlich auch die Erklärung für die korrelierte Preisentwicklung bei den Meme Baskets zu sein, die als Sicherheiten für die Swap-Positionen verwendet werden können *hust Popcorn hust*. - Ab dem 23. März 2021 begannen die Long-Positionen von Archegos an Wert zu verlieren; der Wert von Archegos sank von 36,2 Mrd. USD am 22. März auf 9,2 Mrd. USD am 25. März. Dies löste eine Vielzahl von Nachschussforderungen (Margin Calls) aus, so dass die Gegenparteien von Archegos ihre Positionen auflösten, um diese Verluste zu decken. Dies war das Ende für Archegos, da der gesamte verbleibende Wert vernichtet wurde.
- Die Gegenparteien von Archegos verloren insgesamt mehr als 10 Mrd. $, wie die folgende Aufschlüsselung zeigt
https://preview.redd.it/wm3hv516y6q91.png?width=538&format=png&auto=webp&s=2089d01d3d4c4be657d44e7acc30353c0c66aa95 "Exceedingly`s" Theorie Archegos und die Leute, die das Unternehmen leiteten, wurden für ihren Untergang verantwortlich gemacht, da sie zu hohe Risiken eingegangen seien und zu viel Marge verwendet hätten. Es erschien ein Artikel mit dem Titel "The Dumbest Financial Story of 2021 - Everyone involved in the swift fall of Archegos Capital Management should be embarrassed." Aber hier ist meine These: Archegos wurde nicht durch ihre eigene Inkompetenz zerstört, sondern ihre Long-Positionen wurden von der DTCC böswillig angegriffen, weil Archegos nachdem Sneeze auf GME long gegangen war und versucht hatte, Shitadels Shorting-Schlamassel mit Gamestop zu versauen, um sich selbst retten zu können. Bevor wir uns näher mit Archegos befassen, möchte ich kurz darauf eingehen, was die DTCC eigentlich ist. Die DTCC-Mafia Die DTCC wurde gegründet, um Clearingdienste für die US-Märkte zu erbringen und sicherzustellen, dass Geld von Käufern zu Verkäufern und Aktien und andere Vermögenswerte von Verkäufern zu Käufern gelangen. Aber die DTCC ist KEINE staatliche Organisation, sondern besteht aus 235 einzelnen US-Unternehmen, und der Vorstand setzt sich aus 22 Personen zusammen, die für Unternehmen wie Citadel, Citigroup, J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Virtu, Merrill Lynch, BNP Paribas usw. arbeiten. Die vollständige Liste der DTCC-Mitglieder findest du in diesem Verzeichnis. Die DTCC hat eine Reihe von Regeln, die ihre Mitglieder befolgen müssen, um Mitglied zu werden, und ein für uns wichtiger Punkt ist dieser. Im Grunde bedeutet dies, dass alle anderen Mitglieder der DTCC für die Verluste des säumigen Mitglieds aufkommen müssen, wenn bei einem DTCC-Mitglied ein "Ereigniszeitraum" eintritt, der ein Ausfallverlustereignis darstellt. Wenn beispielsweise Citadel (ein DTCC-Mitglied) Hunderte von Millionen oder sogar Milliarden zusätzlicher synthetischer GME-Aktien geschaffen hat, die es nicht geben dürfte, und diese Aktien im Wert steigen, so dass Citadel einen Margenausgleich über seine Mittel hinaus erhält, dann müssen alle anderen 234 DTCC-Mitglieder (einschließlich aller großen Banken) die Kosten für den Rückkauf aller Naked Shorts von Citadel übernehmen. Denk daran, dass Shorting, vorallem aber das Naked Shorting potenziell unbegrenzte Verluste nach sich ziehen. Die Fehler eines DTCC-Mitglieds werden also von allen Mitgliedern getragen, und das bedeutet, dass wir Unternehmen wie die Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Citadel, Virtu, Robinhood oder andere DTCC-Mitglieder nicht mehr als separate Einheiten betrachten sollten. Für mich bilden sie alle ein einziges korruptes Gebilde ab, das als DTCC bekannt ist und der eingetragene Besitzer von allen öffentlichen US-Wertpapieren ist und gerne internationalen Wertpapierbetrug begeht, um sich einen zusätzlichen Tag des Überlebens zu erkaufen. Citadel mag der wichtigste US Market Maker sein, der jeden Tag gefälschte GME-Aktien ausgibt, aber es ist im Interesse aller DTCC-Mitglieder, dass Citadel keine Nachschussforderungen (Margin Calls) erhält. Es ist eine verdammte Mafia, sie werden jeden unter die Erde bringen, der versucht, sich mit ihnen anzulegen, was meiner Meinung nach genau das ist, was sie mit Archegos gemacht haben... Ich hoffe, du bist bereit, mit mir in ein ziemlich abgefucktes Kaninchenloch zu steigen. Was GENAU hat Archegos in die Luft gejagt? Aus der SEC-Beschwerde gegen Archegos geht hervor, dass dies ihre größten Positionen waren (bei den ADR handelt es sich um chinesische Unternehmen, die an US-Börsen gehandelt werden). Mehrere Quellen sagen, dass diese Positionen der Grund dafür waren, dass Archegos einen Margenausgleich erhielt, als sie am 23. März anfingen, an Wert zu verlieren. Am 26. März begannen Goldman Sachs und Morgan Stanley (auch bekannt als die DTCC) mit der Liquidierung der verbleibenden Positionen von Archegos, aber diese Liquidierung war nicht der Grund für den dramatischen Wertverlust aller Positionen, sondern sie verloren spontan etwa 30 % an Wert, was die Einschussforderungen auslöste. Ich werde mir 6 der größten Positionen von Archegos ansehen: VIAC, BIDU, TME, GSX, VIPS UND DISCA. Bei einer langfristigen Betrachtung dieser 6 Aktien ist etwas auffällig denn sie zeigen alle den gleichen Trend: https://preview.redd.it/8lwzl8jg97q91.png?width=1329&format=png&auto=webp&s=d82bf77bbc4ebfdfca6aaad8ddf82ffa9bbeace1 Sie steigen alle Anfang 2021 im Preis und haben dann im März 2021 einen dramatischen Rückgang. Das sieht fast wie ein Short Squeeze aus, aber wir wissen jetzt, dass Archegos die Preise dieser Aktien künstlich in die Höhe getrieben hat. Schauen wir uns diese Kursrückgänge aber mal genauer an und sehen wir, wie ähnlich sie alle aussehen. So sahen alle diese 6 Aktien vom 15. März - 30. März 2021 aus: BIDU DISCA GSX (Dieser Ticker hieß damals noch GOTU) TME VIAC VIPS Hwang on a minute, diese 6 nicht miteinander verbundenen Aktien verzeichneten also alle einen Kursrückgang von mindestens 26,3 % und einen Tag, an dem mindestens 21 % der insgesamt ausstehenden Aktien gehandelt wurden? Das sind GME-Level der Extraklasse. Artikel zur Erklärung der Kursverluste Ich werde jetzt meine epischen Google-Fähigkeiten einsetzen, um alle öffentlich zugänglichen Gründe für den Kursrückgang dieser Unternehmen zwischen dem 22. und 25. März zu finden. - VIAC und DISCA werden in diesem Artikel von Motley Fool behandelt:
Das Handelsvolumen der Discovery-Aktie war heute außerordentlich hoch und erreichte vor 14 Uhr EDT fast 50 Millionen Aktien. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass ein institutioneller Investor beschlossen haben könnte, einen Teil seiner Beteiligung an dem Medienunternehmen zu verkaufen. ViacomCBS-Aktien fielen, zum Teil aufgrund einer Herabstufung durch Wells Fargo Der Kursrückgang von VIAC um 32 % wird zum Teil auf die Herabstufung des Ratings der Aktie durch Wells Fargo (ein DTCC-Mitglied) zurückgeführt. Wie die nachstehende Grafik zeigt, hat sich Discovery fast parallel zu ViacomCBS entwickelt, da die Begeisterung über die neuen Streaming-Dienste der Unternehmen zu einer Hausse geführt hat. Diese Gewinne schwinden jedoch schnell wieder, da die Anleger zu erkennen scheinen, dass Streaming-Dienste allein eine Verdreifachung des Aktienkurses in nur wenigen Monaten nicht rechtfertigen. Versuch mal dir diese Aussage zu vergegenwärtigen: Die Anleger der DISCA-Aktie haben erkannt, dass ihre Investition überbewertet war, und haben deshalb beschlossen, massenweise (21% der ausstehenden Aktien) zu verkaufen? Was? "Schießen wir uns doch alle in den Fuß und verbrennen einen Teil unseres Vermögens", denn das macht absolut Sinn. Ich bin ehrlich gesagt überrascht, dass sie nicht gesagt haben, dass DISCA aus Mitleid mit VIAC gefallen ist. Ein weiterer Artikel über VIAC erwähnt eine weitere niedrige Aktienbewertung durch "eines der einflussreichsten Forschungsunternehmen der Wall Street", MoffettNathanson, und geht auf ein Aktienangebot ein, das VIAC gerade angekündigt hatte. - März 2021-- ViacomCBS Inc. (NASDAQ: VIAC, VIACA) gab heute die Preisgestaltung für gleichzeitige Angebote (die "Angebote") von 20.000.000 Aktien seiner Stammaktien der Klasse B mit einem Nennwert von $0,001 pro Aktie ("Stammaktien der Klasse B") zu einem Publikumspreis von $85,00 pro Aktie bekannt
Die Emissionsbanken des Unternehmens entscheiden, zu welchem Preis die neuen Aktien auf den Markt kommen, und in diesem Fall kamen die Aktien 14,3 % billiger (!) auf den Markt als der zuvor gehandelte Preis. Sehen wir uns einmal an, wer die Konsortialführer von VIAC sind. Abgesehen von ein paar kleineren Firmen handelt es sich mehrheitlich um große DTCC-Unternehmen. Aus dem obigen Artikel geht hervor, dass VIAC leicht gefallen ist, weil der Angebotspreis auf eine Überbewertung hindeutete, so dass die DTCC zu diesem Kursrückgang beigetragen hat. - BIDU und TME werden in diesem Artikel von Motley Fool vom 25. März 2021 behandelt:
Die Aktien von Baidu Inc. stürzten heute ab, da die Anleger befürchteten, dass der in China ansässige Tech-Gigant zusätzlich zu den Drohungen aus den USA über die mögliche Auslistung ausländischer Aktien von den chinesischen Aufsichtsbehörden stärker überwacht werden könnte. Der Kurs des Tech-Unternehmens fiel heute um 13,4 %. Und in diesem BBC-Artikel heißt es: Chinas staatliche Behörde für Marktregulierung (SAMR) teilte am Freitag mit, dass sie 12 Unternehmen wegen 10 Geschäften, die gegen Anti-Monopol-Regeln verstoßen haben, mit einer Geldstrafe belegt hat. Zu den Unternehmen gehörten Tencent, Baidu, Didi Chuxing, SoftBank und eine von ByteDance unterstützte Firma, so die SAMR in einer Erklärung. Die Anleger scheinen zu befürchten, dass Tencent das nächste Unternehmen im Fadenkreuz der chinesischen Aufsichtsbehörden sein könnte, die sich zunehmend dafür interessieren, wie die großen Tech-Unternehmen arbeiten. Nun gut, eine verstärkte Regulierung einer Aktie ist negativ, aber reicht das aus, um einen Kursrückgang von 30 % zu rechtfertigen und dass 28% der ausstehenden Aktien an diesem Tag gehandelt werden? Das lasse ich dich entscheiden. - VIPS und GSX werden in diesem CNBC-Artikel behandelt, der wiederum auf zusätzliche Vorschriften für chinesische börsennotierte Aktien eingeht. Bedenke, dass es sich hierbei nur um potenzielle Sorgen handelt, und dennoch reichte es aus, um VIPS innerhalb von 4 Tagen um 33,7 % und GSX um 29,5 % fallen zu lassen. Nennt man das eine Überreaktion?
Zusammenfassung Diese 6 Aktien fielen beträchtlich, entweder weil sie von DTCC-Mitgliedern herabgestuft wurden, weil sie von der Angst vor weiteren Regulierungen für chinesische Aktien betroffen waren oder weil einfach alle 20 - 30 % der ausstehenden Aktien gleichzeitig verkaufen wollten. Ich rieche eine Menge Bullshit. Alle 6 Aktien bewegten sich nach dem gleichen Muster, hatten Tage mit lächerlich hohen Volumen, und alle haben bis zum 26. März erheblich an Wert verloren. Ich sage das jetzt einfach mal ganz offen: Ich glaube, dass diese 6 Aktien in diesen 4 Tagen auf Teufel komm raus geshortet wurden, genau wie wir es bei GME gesehen haben. 26. März - Margin Calls In diesem Artikel werden die Nachschussforderungen von Archegos erwähnt: Wenn jemand auf Marge - mit geliehenem Geld - handelt, muss er möglicherweise einen bestimmten Betrag an Sicherheiten vorhalten, um seine Kreditgeber zu befriedigen. Wenn der Wert eines Aktienbestands sinkt, benötigt der Anleger mehr Sicherheiten. Sind diese nicht vorhanden, kommt es zu einem Margin Call, bei dem der Kreditgeber den Verkauf der Aktie erzwingen kann, um den Anleger wieder in Einklang mit den Margin-Anforderungen zu bringen. Das Wall Street Journal berichtete, dass die verschiedenen Banken von Archegos - darunter Credit Suisse, Nomura, Goldman Sachs und Morgan Stanley - ein Treffen abhielten, um zu besprechen, wie die Positionen des Family Office effektiv abgebaut werden können. Die beiden amerikanischen Banken scheinen jedoch wenig Interesse daran gehabt zu haben, langsam zu handeln. Goldman und Morgan Stanley begrenzten ihre Verluste, indem sie die Archegos-Aktien schnell verkauften, bevor der Umfang des Verkaufs zu einem größeren Kursverfall der Aktien führte. Findet es noch jemand interessant, dass Goldman & MS nicht abwarten um die Sache mit den anderen Banken oder mit Archegos zu besprechen? Sie haben sofort zugeschlagen und am 26. März begonnen, die Positionen von Archegos zu liquidieren. Ja, ihre Begründung war gut, dass sie nicht noch mehr Geld durch die fallenden Aktien von Archegos verlieren wollten, aber wie du im vorigen Abschnitt gesehen hast, glaube ich, dass diese zentralen DTCC-Banken teilweise für den Rückgang dieser Aktien verantwortlich gewesen sein könnten. Wenn man kein DTCC-Mitglied ist und von der DTCC einen Margenausgleich erhält, geschieht dies schneller, als es sein sollte, was etwas anders ist, als wenn man ein DTCC-Mitglied ist und von der DTCC einen Margenausgleich erhält. https://preview.redd.it/s8qi4qy2g7q91.png?width=721&format=png&auto=webp&s=b77ffece048e03d894b3510da978cc44c6f95530 Erinnere dich daran, dass die DTCC am 28. Januar 2021 auf 9,7 Milliarden Dollar verzichtet hat, verteilt auf 6 Firmen ( aufgedeckt auf S.101 von Maxine's Report), Robinhoods Verzicht betrug allein 2,2 Milliarden Dollar von den gesamten 9,7 Milliarden Dollar. Warum sollten also 2 DTCC-Banken, die Mitglieder des Vorstands waren, Archegos zerstören wollen? Lass uns tiefer in den Kaninchenbau gehen... 10. März 2021- Flash Crash Für viele Affen wird dieser Tag als einer der verrücktesten Tage der ganzen GME-Saga in Erinnerung bleiben. GME fiel in einem Flash-Crash von 340 $ auf 180 $, MarketWatch Nachrichten veröffentlichte einen Artikel über den Preisverfall, bevor dieser überhaupt eintrat, und das Seltsamste von allem war, dass dieser Kampf zwischen zwei Hochfrequenzhandelsalgorithmen stattfand (Entschuldigung für das verschwommene Bild, ich habe kein klareres). Was auch immer am 10. März passiert ist, hat den \"guten Wal\" viel Geld gekostet. Das tägliche Volumen lag vor dem Split bei etwa 250 Mio., und obwohl sich das meiste davon auf den Drop & Bounce konzentrierte, muss es während der HFT-Schlacht ein Volumen von mindestens 50 Mio. gegeben haben. Selbst der Kauf von 10 Mio. GME zu 240 $ hätten jemanden 2,4 Mrd. $ gekostet. (Aber ja klar, das war bestimmt eine nur koordienierte Kleinanleger Attacke 😉) Shortselling Angriff in Kombination mit gefälschten Schlagzeilen? Es ist fast so, als hätte Cramer uns das schon vor Jahren gesagt... Es war eine klare, offensichtliche Marktmanipulation, und die Medien haben dabei geholfen und mit ihnen zusammengearbeitet. Ich meine, es kann nicht offensichtlicher sein. Eine Aktie fällt innerhalb von Minuten um 40%. Ich meine, denk mal drüber nach. Diese Balkencodierung, die den Preis ständig von 240 $ auf 340 $ ändert, ist nicht normal, Aktienkurse sollten sich nicht so dramatisch in einminütigen Balken bewegen. Ich denke, wir alle wissen, dass Citadel und ihre Freunde bei der DTCC die Shorts waren, und ich glaube jetzt, dass Archegos der "gute Wal" war, der versuchte, den Kurs bei 340 $ zu halten. Der 10. März war ein wichtiger Tag für GME-Shorts, denn der 11. März war der Rolltag für Swaps. Der Schlusskurs der Wertpapiere am 10. März würde bestimmen, wie viel SHFs zahlen müssten, um ihre Swap-Positionen offen zu halten, und wenn man bedenkt, dass am 21. Januar 1 Milliarde GME-Aktien mehr gehandelt wurden als normal (vor dem Sneeze), sind das eine Menge Swaps, die sie rollen mussten. Hätte der Kurs am 10. März bei 340 $ statt bei 265 $ geschlossen, hätte es Citadel Hunderte von Milliarden mehr kosten können, die Swaps zu rollen. Habe ich irgendwelche Beweise dafür, dass es Archegos war? Nein, überhaupt nicht, aber ich finde es seltsam passend, dass nur zwei Wochen später die Mitglieder der DTCC sich anscheinend abgesprochen haben, um Archegos am 26. März in den Ruin zu treiben. In diesem Screenshot wird erläutert, dass bei allen Gesprächen zwischen den Brokern von Archegos Anwälte anwesend waren und alle angewiesen wurden, die Positionen von Archegos nicht preiszugeben. Vielleicht ist das ein Standardverfahren, oder vielleicht war es ein zusätzlicher Schutz, um die Tatsache zu verbergen, dass sie mit GME zu tun hatten? Die Nachricht vom Untergang von Archegos schaffte es innerhalb weniger Tage nach ihrem Zusammenbruch in die wichtigsten Nachrichtenkanäle, und das Einzige, was dafür verantwortlich gemacht wurde, waren die 8 größten Positionen, die zuvor genannt wurden, aber wie "Blanderson_Snooper" in seiner DD feststellte, war ihr Gesamtengagement so: - 86 Mrd. $ an TRS-Longpositionen (Swaps), die sich auf einzelne Wertpapiere beziehen
- $32 Milliarden in kundenspezifischen Basket-Swaps
- $14 Milliarden in ETF-Swaps
- $20 Milliarden in long Cash Sicherheiten
- 8 Mrd. $ an Short-Swaps, die sich auf einzelne Wertpapiere beziehen
Es waren eindeutig mehr als nur 8 Positionen, und dennoch kontrollierten die MSM die Darstellung so, dass es nur um diese 8 veröffentlichte Positionen ging. Und ja, das war die Ursache für die Nachschussforderungen (Margin Call), aber es scheint, dass große Anstrengungen unternommen wurden, um nicht alle Positionen zu veröffentlichen. Ich würde um 1 Million Dollar (bzw. 0,01 GME-Aktien) wetten, dass Archegos bei GME long war, als das Unternehmen unterging. Archegos hat anscheinend am 28. Januar 800 Mio. $ verloren, und "Blanderson_snooper" sagte, dass dies darauf hindeuten könnte, dass sie Short auf Meme-Aktien waren, aber der SP500 hat an diesem Tag einen Schlag abbekommen (wahrscheinlich hat Ken Long-Positionen liquidiert, um für das Naked Shorting von GME zu bezahlen), so dass man selbst dann, wenn man Long auf viele Blue-Chip-Aktien war, verbrannt worden wäre. Es wurde gesagt, dass Archegos in einigen Index-Swaps wie dem SP500 long war, so dass sich dies noch summieren könnte. Ich denke, Hwang hätte gewusst, was während des Niesanfalls im Januar vor sich ging, nämlich dass Citadel Hunderte von Millionen GME-Aktien druckte, um sie Melvin und anderen SHFs zu geben, damit sie ihre Short-Positionen "schließen" konnten, und dass Citadel dabei die Short-Positionen übernahm, die sie in Swaps steckten. Hwang spielte mit all diesen Instrumenten und hätte die irrsinnigen Aktivitäten in ETFs, die GME enthalten, und all die DOOMPs und anderen Derivate, die verwendet wurden, um GME-Aktien aus der Luft zu holen, sehen können. Ich denke, dass er am 21. Februar, als der Kurs wieder niedrig war, eine Gelegenheit gesehen haben könnte, GME zu kaufen und ein Vermögen zu verdienen, indem er Citadel auspresste. Wenn dem so ist, hat er das Risiko auf sich genommen, verloren und wurde zu Asche verbrannt. Ich hoffe, dass dies alles wahr ist und er es eines Tages zugeben wird, denn das würde unwiderlegbar beweisen, dass Citadel und die DTCC genau das getan haben, wofür Bill Hwang jetzt vor Gericht steht. Fallout Bill Hwang wurde dieses Jahr verhaftet und ihm drohen bis zu 380 Jahre Gefängnis, aber meiner Meinung nach ist dies nicht nur ein Akt der Gerechtigkeit, sondern auch eine Warnung der DTCC an alle anderen, sich an die Regeln zu halten. 2008 gingen Billionen von Dollar verloren, weil Agenturen Hypotheken-Ratings manipulierten, und niemand wurde dafür verantwortlich gemacht, und doch kostete Hwang eine kleine Anzahl von Banken 10 Milliarden Dollar, und er wird zum schlimmsten Bösewicht aller Zeiten gemacht? Es ist wie DFV über Gamestop sagte: "Die negative Stimmung ist einfach zu groß". Aber wenn dies eine Botschaft ist, um anderen zu sagen, dass sie nicht mit schmutzigen Swap-Spielen auf GME setzen sollen, dann verstehe ich, dass sie so hart gegen Hwang vorgehen. Und für mich ist das der Grund, warum RC 5D-Schach spielt und das langsam und stetig tut, ohne die Mafia direkt zu provozieren. Citadel zerstört sich selbst, indem sie das unausweichliche jeden Tag hinauszögern. Ob es nun DRS ist, das schließlich den MOASS auslöst, oder ein epischer Marktcrash, der MOASS ist unvermeidlich, egal wie man es betrachtet. Swaps verbergen das Verbrechen, machen die Institutionen aber nicht immun gegen die üblichen Marktbewegungen, wie wir sie bei Archegos gesehen haben. Für Ken gibt es also keinen Ausweg. Wird er Gamestop für ein weiteres Jahrzehnt unterdrücken? Was ist, wenn sie in mehreren Quartal hintereinander einen Gewinn ausweisen, wird BoA dann ihr Kursziel von 20 auf 25 Dollar anheben? Es ist vorbei, Mayoman, und wir wollen alle sehen, dass du auch 380 Jahre lang hinter Gitter sitzen musst. Lass mich wissen, was du davon hälst, dass Archegos long auf GME war. Ich weiß, dass es bisher nur Alufolie ist, aber wenn es noch andere Stellen gibt, die diese Theorie stützen, werde ich auf jeden Fall weiter nachforschen.

2022.09.19 22:43 Illumination-Round Alternate History Timeline Project I'm Working On-Open To All
There's an alternate history timeline I've been working on for AlternateHistory.com that got some real traction there. It got to a "completed" stage at the end of 2019, but has been continually expanded since, in terms of creating a new version, a Wiki/Fandom, and a collection of articles and press clippings on a FictionPress story. This expansion is going well, but my team and I need new members to join us. Thus, all of this is offered as a proposal that hopefully, some of you here might be interested in joining to contribute to.
Here's the rub:
-Kurt Cobain doesn’t commit suicide in 1994, he also never even becomes addicted to heroin. As a result, Nirvana is still a recording and touring concern as of today, complete with giving Dave Grohl more of the frontman, co-vocalist and co-guitarist role he has in the Foo Fighters in our reality. Kurt also ends up eventually divorcing Courtney Love and remarries to Charlize Theron; besides their own careers, they form an entertainment conglomerate, Springbok Productions, responsible for projects in film, television, streaming, musical theater, video games, music, books and amusement park attractions. This includes constant team-ups with Disney. Springbok is basically an efficiently run, well-managed version of what The Beatles tried and failed to do with Apple.
-Layne Staley of Alice in Chains and Chris Cornell are also both still alive in this timeline, though as a tradeoff, Eddie Vedder dies from an OD in 1998, because without Kurt becoming a martyr, Vedder doesn’t have the mental fortitude to handle his fame. Much of Cornell's solo work becomes Soundgarden material, particularly Euphoria Morning, and Audioslave's albums and songs all become Soundgarden material, here being known as three albums in a trilogy called "The Morello Sessions", a piss-take on Springsteen's "Seeger Sessions" and having Tom Morello still be part of the whole process as a guest collaborator. William DuVall also still ends up becoming a member of AIC, sharing the frontman role with Layne and Jerry Cantrell, making the band a five-piece as well moving into three-part harmonies on the songs. The albums Black Gives Way to Blue, The Devil Put Dinosaurs here and Rainier Fog also still exist in this timeline, but with Layne's involvement.
-Van Halen’s attempted reunion with David Lee Roth in 1996 is fully consummated, though the classic VH era lineup still does not last forever, and Eddie’s son Wolfgang still ends up taking the bassist spot. The band and Eddie releases much more music, though Eddie still dies from cancer in 2020. A surprise reconciliation between Kurt and Axl Rose prevents Slash from leaving Guns N' Roses, leaving the Use Your Illusion lineup of GNR essentially intact, Chinese Democracy out in 1997, and the band pushing on to greater glories up through today.
-Tom Petty dies from his secret heroin addiction in 1999 and Ritchie Blackmore from a car crash in 2000; Britney Spears commits suicide during the height of press frenzy about her breakdown in 2007, while Michael Jackson is still alive. INXS frontman Michael Hutchence never hangs himself. Sublime's Bradley Nowell is still alive with the band being a viable and going concern, while Green Day fizzles out after Warning ,with Billie Joe Armstrong's alcoholism becoming a problem much earlier than in our reality. In their place, Nirvana ends up assuming the role Green Day has, complete with making its own analogs to American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown. Bands like Nickelback and Limp Bizkit are still on the scene and still have their spotlight, but in the former's case, fall out of favor earlier, especially with Layne having beaten his demons and Jerry likewise also reaching sobriety sooner, Jerry's initial love of Chad Kroger and company fades when Layne and Kurt point out the generic approach, repetitive nature, and ugly misogyny within the lyrics. Nickelback's ride ends with Dark Horse.
-Linda McCartney has a double mastectomy in 1994, basically making her an early proponent of the strategy used by Angelina Jolie, even though in 1994 there certainly wasn't advanced technology to find the genetic marker and Linda would simply be acting on a hunch and doing a preventative measure. As such, she is still alive and she and Paul are still married, she continues to record and tour with Paul. George Harrison is also not stabbed at the end of 1999, meaning that his cancer doesn't reoccur and he also is still alive and making music. Kurt, being the ardent Beatlemaniac that he is, actually gets to watch things from The Beatles Anthology onwards, such as the release of the "reunion" singles "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" and so on, and also gets to meet and know the surviving Beatles and their families, as well as Yoko Ono and Sean and Julian Lennon.
-Instead of a segregation of music genres, particularly regarding rock, mainly in terms of playing off grunge/alternative/Adult alternative against metal/hair metal and so on, and Internet flame wars of where you support one or the other, both remain viable genres at the same time, which helps rock remain relevant in the mainstream.
-The music industry as a whole is in a much stronger place, because it accepts and adopts the Internet revolution from the start in the ’90s; so here each record label and artist website have stores to buy MP3 files from, rather than one centralized store like iTunes. This obviously also includes The Beatles and their solo works, though the creation of the iPod alone is enough to spur the third and final round of Apple v. Apple litigation and the resulting settlement. Radio station and ticket sellepromoter conglomeration doesn’t take as much hold as in our reality. MTV still expands its programming, but mainly remains focused on music as its primary driving element.
-Artists open their archives more and many famous and oft-bootlegged items are released to the public earlier or for at all in this timeline, and this affects groups like The Beatles and The Beach Boys.
-Lots of political ripples also occur that I can’t get into, other than the hyperpartisan atmosphere is cooled down and because of things, COVID-19 burns itself out essentially by June 2020; and except for Italy and Brazil, no countries have to undergo true lockdowns and closures. Movie theaters only close for three months, though concerts and stage productions still don’t come back until 2021.
Here’s also an idea of how companies like Disney is affected in this timeline:
-Michael Eisner’s tenure as CEO lasts from 1985 to 2008. He also leaves the company on a much happier and celebratory note, and is remembered fondly as a visionary. This is because, when making the Capital Cities/ABC purchase, he decides from the start to make Bob Iger the number two at Disney, rather than micromanage the company by keeping Frank Wells’ duties for himself. Thus, Eisner and Iger form a working partnership much like the one Eisner had with Wells that makes everything run smoothly and makes Disney even bigger, especially because Iger manages to convince Eisner to not go forward with certain ideas and do certain others instead.
-The distribution arm is renamed Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures back in 1985, to make it clear from the start that Disney distributes its work. The rest of the semi-retirement of the Buena Vista name still doesn’t occur until 2007.
-Disney purchases both Pixar and Lucasfilm in 1996. This ensures that relationships with Pixar never deteriorate, puts Steve Jobs, John Lasseter and Ed Catmull on the board from the start (so Jobs is both CEO of Pixar and a Disney board member when he returns to Apple in 1997), puts Lasseter in charge of the animation studios in ’96 as well, and the “brain trust meeting” ends up adopted by Disney as a whole to keep track on all their projects. Disney also negotiates to get Fox to give up its perpetual license to the original Star Wars, so that Disney is the distributor for the 1997 special edition of the original trilogy, as well as the prequels, the Clone Wars show, and the modern sequel era. The history of Star Wars is essentially the same, except that Lawrence Kasdan polishes the dialogue in Lucas’ scripts for the prequels; by a twist of fate, Adam Driver does not enlist in the Marines but ends up discovered (much like James Cameron did for Edward Furlong to be John Connor in T2) at a gym by Kasdan and he ends up playing Anakin in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith (but Hayden Christensen still gets his shining glory in the movie Shattered Glass); Jonathan Jackson, who was an original candidate to play Anakin, reenters the fray by playing Kylo Ren in the sequels.
-To head off antitrust concerns when purchasing ABC, Pixar and Lucasfilm in the same year, Disney spins off 80 percent of its stake in Miramax, keeping only home video rights. However, Harvey Weinstein is exposed during the Oscar campaign for Shakespeare in Love. Besides the fact that Saving Private Ryan wins Best Picture and an earlier, more nuanced and mature version of Me Too/Time’s Up unfolds regarding exposing predators, Miramax limps along until shuttering in 2001, when Disney fully repurchases it dirt cheap and folds it and the library into that of Touchstone Pictures. Many Miramax films released in 2001-2010 are released by Touchstone during this period, though Hollywood Pictures gets some films, and others are farmed out to other studios. The library and filmography of The Weinstein Company, which never exists, is split among the various studios, with less Disney releases compared to Miramax. Disney still spins off the name, but not the full library, in 2010, along with 300 development projects, to Filmyard Holdings, until it is then sold to beIN Media, then split between it and ViacomCBS. Disney does grant the new Miramax the right to securitize the library as well as make sequels and derivative works on the library. This also has an effect in the studio chair. Dick Cook is joined by Meryl Poster as co-chair, and they remain studio heads as of today. Alan Horn remains retired after leaving Warner Bros.
-Touchstone Pictures thus remains a very active label even into today for releasing mature films. The distribution deal with DreamWorks goes happier, with the deal made as nonexclusive to grant freedom for DreamWorks to do other studios; and the original 30-film target is fulfilled. However, there is a hiatus, and Steven Spielberg still forms Amblin Partners and makes the deal with Universal.
-Disney’s purchases of Marvel and Fox still happen; though the Fox purchase happens with the original asking price of $52 billion, because ITTL, Comcast is not allowed to own more than 35 percent of NBCUniversal, and thus cannot bid for 21st Century Fox. Disney also does not try to hold onto Sky, and spins it off to Fox Corporation, which still sells it to Comcast. Fox 2000 Pictures remains active. The Fox name also remains on the assets, because of a number of political considerations I can’t get into here, as well as James Murdoch triumphing over Lachlan.
-Disney does not have a streaming service, because ITTL, Hollywood and the music industry embraced the digital revolution in the ’90s rather than dragging their feet. Blockbuster not only remains alive, but owns the one streaming service library for all non-pornographic movies and shows that have survived as well as original streaming content. Of course the Disney+ content is still made, it’s under a different umbrella.
-Without the “Save Disney” war, the “Disney Renaissance” never ends to lead to a post-Renaissance and the “Disney Revival.” The Renaissance does dip and have peaks and valleys, but it remains going from 1989 until today, This is in part because films like Home on the Range, The Good Dinosaur, John Carter, The Lone Ranger, and Chicken Little never happen, and certain unproduced films on the WDAS and Pixar slates occur instead. Treasure Planet is also delayed until June 2003 and the first POTC to August that year, to be part of a gimmick called “The Swashbuckling Summer of Pirates”, making Treasure Planet a massive hit. This also means that Brother Bear is WDAS’ film for 2004, and it is tweaked a bit. Disney’s biggest box office flop in its history ends up being The Alamo.
-Eisner is talked out of expanding Disneyland Paris too early and from making Anaheim’s second gate be called California Adventure; the second gate in Anaheim ends up being a revived and modified WESTCOT that opens in 2003. Disney’s America is revived as a 5th gate at WDW. Hollywood Studios undergoes a facelift to be more of a parodic-themed park to be “the Hollywood that never was and always will be.” Except for TOT, everything is rethemed, especially to be non-IP. Disney buys 3000 additional acres to add to WDW to make another six gates over the decades, including a full-scale Galaxy’s Edge, a full-scale Pandora: The World of Avatar, a park called Pixar Place, a park called Marvel: Hero’s Landing, a Studio Ghibli-based park (in place of the Skyway transportation area) and a Fox IPs park.
-ABC does not struggle in its early Disney years and is stable throughout, even before airing Millionaire. The ABC Daytime slot remains occupied with soaps besides General Hospital, and the GH spinoff series Port Charles is more successful. Playtime Disney/Disney Junior is spun off to be a self-contained 24-hour network that anyone with even basic cable can access, to make way for an anime-based programming block on The Disney Channel. Disney also creates ABC Classic and Disney Channel Classic, rerun-based channels, also for basic cable. SOAPNet still exists. A great number of Disney Channel programming and DCOM content simply doesn’t exist to make way for better shows. ABC Family/Freeform still happens and exists.
-Eisner never does Club Disney. Mistakes he still makes include Celebration and GO.com, as well as backing certain movies that don’t pan out.
-ITTL, the Copyright Term Extension Act is not passed, and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act is more liberalized. Thus, Mickey enters public domain on New Year’s Day 2003. Eisner does panic and initially tries to prevent it by filing a letter of revisionist history to claim that Ub Iwerks, not Walt, created Mickey. It doesn’t go over well to say the least, and Eisner is argumentative and tunneled in. He does back down, and Iger takes over for a while as Eisner goes on vacation to put the fires, and he does so admirably. Eisner returns a much humbled man and is also able to turn his own reputation around to be able to stay until 2008.
-Disney never severs ties with McDonald’s, in part because the Golden Arches isn’t forced to support year after year of flops, but they do make it nonexclusive, but still very involved. While the Downtown Disney/Disney Springs full-service location still closes, the freestanding park locations remain open, and there are ones in the new parks as well. Disney also never sells the Saban Entertainment properties (except for letting Haim Saban reclaim half the stake in Power Rangers in 2010 (until selling that to Hasbro), but Disney remains holding the other half) and never cuts ties with Studio Ghibli.
-Springbok co-produces the live action remake slate; and Springbok is able to help sell the public even more convincingly about the films and make them see that there is a purpose and reasoning behind it; this and other things prevents the perception that Disney is a mercenary, IP-driven machine cynically retreading past glories. These are the same, with the exception of some tweaking for The Lion King (namely replacing Beyonce as Nala and fleshing out some more background between Mufasa, Scar and Sarabi as well as jettisoning the version of “Be Prepared”) and Mulan (removing the chi element from the story, making certain elements closer to the original, having Gong Li’s character be a lieutenant to Shan Yu/Bori Khan but not a witch).
-Disney, and Hollywood as a whole, basically creates a new sort of interdependent model, where effectively all the studios and production companies have alliances with each other and essentially share the same pool and resources. This means, for example, seeing distribution deals for a film by both Disney and New Line Cinema (which remains largely independent of Time Warner ITTL), or Sony and Warner Bros., or New Line and the modern Miramax.
How MLP is affected:
-The series and assorted merchandise is the same, except now there are an additional 20 episodes of FIM, featuring notable celebrity guest stars and stories, such as one involving the surviving Beatles, and which playfully riffs on the band's history and is essentially a metaphor for dealing with the ripples of the assassination of John Lennon; an episode featuring Charlize Theron that is essentially a metaphor for dealing with the memories of her turbulent upbringing in South Africa. There is also far more overlap between FIM and EG, complete with having Sunset Shimmer have a part to play in the arc of the main series, though still having them be essentially self-contained, standalone works.
-To help explain and settle why events from G4 take the shape they do to create the semi-dystopian version in G5, the climax of G5 will include a moment of utilizing time travel to neutralize a threat that will destroy the entire world and which cannot be defeated unless smothered in the crib. Taking cues from the likes of
Avengers: Endgame, X-Men: Days of Future Past and
Spider-Man: No Way Home, the G5 protagonists must travel back in time to not only G4, but all the way back to G1, and change history for the better.
-This also ties in with Hasbro deciding to effectively create a cinematic universe (though not as tightly defined, necessarily, as standard cinematic universes) of its various IPs and lines. Hasbro, however, even before purchasing Entertainment One, decides to basically make movie and TV projects with every studio, every network, every producer, and not be restrained from working with say, Paramount, only.

2022.08.16 07:02 sapan_auth Why is Laal SIngh Chadha being called a disaster? An explanation
Hello friends. First time poster here. A few members of the community asked me to create a separate thread on this topic so I am trying to make one with details.
In last 24 hours, Bollywood Hungama has posted two separate articles about LSC, in one it calls LSC highest overseas opening grosser of 2022 among Hindi movies
https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/box-office-special-features/laal-singh-chaddha-collects-4-01-mil-usd-rs-31-91-cr-overseas-box-office-highest-opening-weekend-grosser-2022-overseas/
and in another one calls is a disaster
https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/box-office-special-features/laal-singh-chaddha-box-office-estimate-day-5-drops-18-independence-day-collect-rs-8-crores-biggest-aamir-khan-disaster-since-mela/
So why two contrasting reports? The explanation here is based on reports collected from various sources that I have quoted here. Because details about exact numbers are not known, I will make some assumptions but that wont change the reports.
LSC is a joint venture between Viacom 18 and Aamir Khan Productions. Viacom 18 is a joint venture between Paramount and Network 18. Paramount holds the rights to Forrest Gump.
The production cost is 180 crore. This includes actor salaries, VFX work, making, and budget got high because of impact by covid and shot across 100 locations in and out of India, the making budget itself is 180 crores
https://www.indiatvnews.com/entertainment/masala/laal-singh-chaddha-budget-aamir-khan-kareena-kapoor-khan-naga-chaitanya-mona-singh-salaries-bollywood-film-2022-08-12-799534
Out of this 180 crore, 50 crore is fees of Aamir, 8 crore Kareena, 6 crore Naga Chaitainya, and rest of the cast should be under 65 crore total max
https://www.koimoi.com/bollywood-news/laal-singh-chaddha-salaries-revealed-aamir-khan-takes-more-than-6-times-the-fee-of-kareena-kapoor-khan-reports/ https://www.financialexpress.com/entertainment/laal-singh-chaddha-heres-how-much-aamir-khan-kareena-kapoor-khan-and-others-charged-for-the-film/2626972/lite/
Here it is important to note that this salary is for Aamir the actor, and Aamir Khan Productions is a separate entity from Aamir Khan the person. FWIW he can buy a boat from this money but not from Aamir Khan productions money because it has stakeholders(like ex Kiran Rao who is also recorded as Producer of LSC)
https://en.wikipedia-on-ipfs.org/wiki/Aamir_Khan_Productions
Now assuming this is a joint venture between Aamir Khan productions and Viacom 18, lets say they put in 90 crore each to make this movie. Out of this total amount of 180, Aamir himself took out 50 crore, and rest of the money was involved in making this movie.
One key factor here is, the rights of the movie were not purchased by Aamir Khan productions and Viacom 18 for any specified amount. Basically Paramount US, which owns the rights to Forrest Gump just added that whatever the movie makes overseas, will go to them and domestic collection will be shared between Aamir Khan Productions and Viacom 18. Please read the complete details here
https://www.bollymoviereviewz.com/2022/08/laal-singh-chaddha-box-office-collection-day-3-growth.html So, a very important point, anything that the movie earns in overseas, in fact goes to Paramount Global and not to the actual producers. That overseas earning is the cost of rights of Forrest Gump, which is a hidden cost which doesnt have an exact price tag. So, in a nutshell, if the movie earns 50 crore overseas, the actual production cost is 180+50-230 crore. And that 50 crore is going to Paramount Global. Here it is to be noted that Paramount Global is treating Viacom 18 as a separate entity because it has 51% stakes by Network 18.
That leaves domestic market. Assuming movie ends up at 80 crore figure, 40 crore goes to Aamir Khan Productions and 40 to Viacom 18. Remember, AK Productions put in 90 crore and earn back 40 crore. This is where the big hit it. This is where all trade analysts are calling it a disaster.
The other 40 goes to Viacom 18 and assuming 51% partnership, lets say they both earn 20 crore each. This is against 45 crore they both put in. So, even they take 25 crore loss each. Paramount may offset some of its loss because of overseas, but mostly these corporate houses treat their local entities differently.
Aamir might very well return some of his fees or put in that fees into AK Productions to offset that loss, its his decision, but that wont take away from how big a failure the movie is.
If they sell digital rights to, lets say Netflix, they might earn some money back, but I guess even that would be difficult now because of dismal performance. If they release on Voot itself, I dont anticipate a lot of people joining Voot just for LSC, so they might get marginal profits there but not huge. A pre release deal with Netflix would have been ideal.
Lastly, there is China market still left, and Thugs failed badly in China, so no guarantee that this will work, and even there, we dont know the deal between Paramount Global and Viacom 18/ AK Productions. So, that is why LSC is being touted as a big failure despite decent overseas collections

The Center of the Storm
https://i.imgur.com/mA3MzTB.png "The problem with George Tenet is that he doesn't seem to care to get his facts straight. He is not meticulous. He is willing to make up stories that suit his purposes and to suppress information that does not."
"Sadly but fittingly, 'At the Center of the Storm' is likely to remind us that sometimes what lies at the center of a storm is a deafening silence."
https://i.imgur.com/YHMJnnP.png Tenet joined President-elect Bill Clinton's national security transition team in November 1992. Clinton appointed Tenet Senior Director for Intelligence Programs at the National Security Council, where he served from 1993 to 1995. Tenet was appointed Deputy Director of Central Intelligence in July 1995. Tenet held the position as the DCI from July 1997 to July 2004. Citing "personal reasons," Tenet submitted his resignation to President Bush on June 3, 2004. Tenet said his resignation "was a personal decision and had only one basis—in fact, the well-being of my wonderful family—nothing more and nothing less. In February 2008, he became a managing director at investment bank Allen & Company.
https://i.imgur.com/JnGHqOS.png We have the documentation that demonstrates what these people could possibly be doing with all of these tools of manipulation at their fingertips.
The term for it is “covert political action” for which all media put before your eyes is used to serve as a veneer… a reality TV show facade of a darker modus operandum.
https://i.imgur.com/vZC4D29.png Managing Covert Political Action https://archive.ph/DTRZb It is now clear that we are facing an implacable enemy whose avowed objective is world domination by whatever means and at whatever costs. There are no rules in such a game. Hitherto acceptable norms of human conduct do not apply. If the US is to survive, longstanding American concepts of "fair play" must be reconsidered. We must develop effective espionage and counterespionage services and must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies by more clever, more sophisticated means than those used against us. It may become necessary that the American people be made acquainted with, understand and support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy.
https://archive.ph/V4qhF Intelligence historian Jeffrey T. Richelson says the S.A. has covered a variety of missions. The group, which recently was reorganized, has had about 200 officers, divided among several groups: the Special Operations Group; the Foreign Training Group, which trains foreign police and intelligence officers; the Propaganda and Political Action Group, which handles disinformation; the Computer Operations Group, which handles information warfare; and the Proprietary Management Staff, which manages whatever companies the CIA sets up as covers for the S.A.
Scientology as a CIA Political Action Group – “It is a continuing arrangement…”:
https://mikemcclaughry.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/scientology-as-a-cia-political-action-group-it-is-a-continuing-arrangement/ …Those operations we inaugurated in the years 1955-7 are still secret, but, for present purposes, I can say all that’s worth saying about them in a few sentences – after, that is, I offer these few words of wisdom. The ‘perfect’ political action operation is, by definition, uneventful. Nothing ‘happens’ in it. It is a continuing arrangement, neither a process nor a series of actions proceeding at a starting point and ending with a conclusion.
CIA FBI NSA Personnel Active in Scientology:
https://i.imgur.com/acu2Eti.png Consider the number of forces that can be contained within a single “political action group” in the form on a “boutique investment firm,” where all sides of political arguments are predetermined by a selected group of actors who have been planted, compromised or leveraged in some way in order to control the way they spin their message.
https://i.imgur.com/tU4MD4S.png The evidence of this coordinated effort is overwhelming and the “consensus” that you see on TV, in sports, in Hollywood, in the news and on the Internet is fabricated.
Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.'
Thus the uninformed reader will most likely develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
When you find yourself feeling like common sense and common courtesy aren’t as common as they ought to be, it is because there is a massive psychological operation controlled from the top down to ensure that as many people as possible are caught in a “tension based” mental loop that is inflicted on them by people acting with purpose to achieve goals that are not in the interest of the general population, but a method of operating in secret and corrupt manner without consequences.
Notice that Jeffrey Katzenberg, of Disney, who is intertwined with Allen & Co funds the Young Turks. He is the perfect example of the relationship between media and politics.
Katzenberg has also been involved in politics. With his active support of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, he was called "one of Hollywood's premier political kingmakers and one of the Democratic Party's top national fundraisers."
With cash from Jeffrey Katzenberg, The Young Turks looks to grow paid subscribers: https://archive.ph/C8gOs Last week, former DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg’s new mobile entertainment company WndrCo was part of a $20 million funding round in TYT Network, which oversees 30 news and commentary shows covering politics, pop culture, sports and more. This includes the flagship “The Young Turks” program that streams live on YouTube every day. Other investors in the round included venture capital firms Greycroft Partners, E.ventures and 3L Capital, which led the round. This brings total funding for Young Turks to $24 million.
How Hollywood's Political Donors Are Changing Strategies for the Trump Era https://archive.ph/mSTvl Hollywood activism long has been depicted as a club controlled by a handful of powerful white men: Katzenberg, Spielberg, Lear, David Geffen, Haim Saban and Bob Iger are the names most often mentioned. But a new generation of power brokers is ascendant, including J.J. Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, cited for their personal donations and bundling skills; Shonda Rhimes, who held a get-out-the-vote rally at USC's Galen Center on Sept. 28 that drew 10,000 people; CAA's Darnell Strom, who has hosted events for Nevada congresswoman Jacky Rosen and Arizona congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema; and former Spotify executive Troy Carter, who held three fundraisers for Maryland gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous (Carter also was a fundraiser for President Obama).
Soros Group Buys Viacom's DreamWorks Film Library https://archive.ph/9J0Rj Viacom, after splitting off from Les Moonves Les Moonves ' CBS , still holds Paramount Pictures, and that movie studio in December agreed to acquire DreamWorks SKG, the creative shop founded by the Hollywood triumvirate of Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg (a former exec at The Walt Disney Co.). DreamWorks Animation had been spun off into a separate company.
Now it's time for Freston to make back some money--and who better to do a little business with than George Soros? The billionaire financier leads a consortium of Soros Strategic Partners LP and Dune Entertainment II LLC, which together are buying the DreamWorks library--a collection of 59 flicks, including Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, and American Beauty.
The money you spend on media and junk food and in taxes goes to these groups who then decide how best to market at you so that they decide how you vote by creating a fake consensus to trick into thinking that you want something other than what is best for you; but will inevitably result in more money being funneled to the top, creating further separation between the super-rich and the average person. The goal will be to assert creeping authoritarianism by generating outrage against policies and issues they hate. Part of manipulating your basic assumptions is also to use schadenfreude (think canned laughter on TV) against characters who support the cause that might actually do you the most good (which reaffirms and strengthens your confirmation biased along predetermined political lines).
https://i.imgur.com/PW1cRtj.png We have a population being taught to hate socialism and love capitalism when the truth is no country is practicing either. These terms are merely disguises for political oligarchies where the collection of wealth is as much about getting themselves rich as it is about keeping everyone else poor.
What can you guess about the world around you if it turned out that every consensus that was forced on you was fake?
How much money would it take to make it look like 51% of the Internet believed in completely idiotic ideas? Combine shill operations with automation and AI’s, and the cost becomes a good investment relative to the return when measured in political power.
Even the people who are well intentioned and very vocal do not have to consciously be aware that they are working for a political action group. A covert political group will always prefer an unwitting tool to help push their agenda, so that they can remain in the shadows.

https://archive.ph/lFZdV QAnon
Few things stirred the ire of the astroturfing apparatus when the details of the people behind the Q movement began to be exposed. For a group that was supposedly not officially sanctioned, those originating the information, those helping promulgate the information, and those who hosted the infrastructure went on full attack to those who began to uncover personal details about them.
While the liberal media used Q to paint the “alt right” as crazy conspiracy theorists, they were terrified of the actual origins being exposed and videos that provided this information have been almost entirely wiped from the Internet.
A very left leaning presentation can be found at Insider, by Rachel Greenspan.
The history of QAnon: how the conspiracy theory snowballed from the fringes of the internet into the mainstream https://archive.ph/7mrfK The article gets all of its exposition wrong and seems mainly focusing on bad jacketing political enemies with idiocy and conspiracy theories. Q actually started on Voat, not on 4chan.
https://i.imgur.com/D0cXe0g.png The account “IamQ” made a post that thanked Pizzagate Researchers, posted a collection of “Operation Pedowood” pictures from the Chans that an anonymous 4chan user collected in 2013, and a link to an article that spells out some of James Alefantis’ geneology.
Pedowood Files https://imgur.com/a/Ol3jJ/all Because James Alefantis’ geneology is relatively certain, based on a number of sources, it makes it obvious that David Seaman is a misinformation shill because every time a Pizzagate post becomes prominent, he shows up in minutes to start arguments that Alefantis is actually a Rothschild. It’s a total red herring and pointless to argue over.
ALEFANTIS-Helen (Rappas) May 2, 2007, beloved wife of the late Louis G. Alefantis; dear mother of George (Joanne) and Achilles "Lee" (Susan) Alefantis; loving grandmother of Dr. Timothy (Chris), Louis John and James Alefantis; great-grandmother of Jonah, Logan and Evan; sister of the late James (late Naomie) Rappas, the late George (Marina) Rappas and the late John Rappas. Friends may call Sunday 2-4 and 7-9 PM at the JAMES W. CANNAN FUNERAL HOME INC., (Southtowns Chapel), 3155 Orchard Park Rd. The Funeral Service will be held on Monday at 10 AM at the Hellenic Orthodox Church of the Annunciation (Delaware amd Utica). Please assemble at church. The Trisagion will be held Sunday at 7 PM. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the Hellenic Orthodox Church of the Annunciation Elevator Fund. Mrs. Alefantis was a member of Daughters of Pennelope, Women's Philoptochos Committee.
https://archive.ph/0U32J One of the most damning presentations against Q was a post that examined the use of the “trip codes” involved, but I have not been able to find a copy of it.
It is also interesting to note that Watkins is not white, is a Democrat and is married to an African American woman… far from the “white supremacist” profile that the liberals like to use a broad paintbrush against dissenters.
https://i.imgur.com/LbLI1qa.png Pamphlet Anon Miraculously Predicts the Future About Post Featuring Picture of Bike
https://i.imgur.com/F84265o.jpeg Tripcode Exposed (notices and posts about it in one second?)
https://i.imgur.com/aHAjH33.png Pamphlet Anon aka Coleman Rogers was certainly exposed as using the Q Trip Code.
https://i.imgur.com/RW5jzB4.png On Voat, which shut down to prevent Hunter Biden data from spreading, the Q astroturfing movement on Voat was managed by shills like Bill Haney and Suzanne Ayson, who was sharing nude photos of herself to other moderators (like Bill... does his wife know?) to inculcate multiple sub groups in her favor, and in Q’s favor. This resulted in a lot of “alt right” moderators censoring alt right content, including the origins of Q and the leaked Hunter Biden data, which was completely ignored by the Q movement and is still being ignored by the Q movement.
Off of Voat, it seems that a small group, in 2016, had plans to use "IamQ" as a kind of platform/brand to reveal information on corruption, particularly around the child trafficking. Pamphlet Anon and Crew, then, co-opted the whole idea and used other people's research to actually be Q posters. The intelligence realm entered the equation and moved Q posters onto 8chan, now 8kun, mainly because it was one of the most nefarious places on the Internet with child porn being rampant. The idea that people against CP would use a notorious CP board was suspicious, to say the least.
I believe it was a wakeful moment for many users of Voat when Pizzagate information was being censored by influencers within the Q movement. Drama was inserted into “research’ subreddits to derail them and splinter the research groups. "Strategy of Tension." "Organizational Paradoxes."
Gamergate was a similar version of this, where feminine wiles were used to compromise and bias journalists that operated in the gaming realm. While users were painted as “alt right” extremists, the truth is that they took offense when supposedly trustworthy sources of information had turned dishonest over promises of sex.
Many news outlets reported on Watkins and the people involved in 8chan’s involvement with the Q movement, but we have video evidence that Coleman Rogers aka “Pamphlet Anon” was the person originating the posts, themselves; that the Q movement had no inside information and was exploiting the work of crowd sourced research from average Internet users; and that the astroturfers on both sides of political issues, with the help of Big Tech, protected the Q movement puppet masters from exposure.
I’m sure you’re starting to get the idea as to how bad the Internet astroturfing problem is, combined with the astroturfing in conventional media. Modernization has allowed more concentration of power in controlling the messaging that gets put in your information streams, controlling the messaging within large corporate and government organizations and even non-profit organizations.
https://i.imgur.com/gnDYFC2.png Mossad has repeatedly been caught taking unethical behavior on the Internet to new heights, every year.
On every “free speech” Internet forum, Mossad will go to great lengths to insert offensive material and offensive speech in order to drive normal people away from using the platforms. 4chan is notorious for being such a place.
https://imgur.com/kuEXunc.png Among other notorious Mossad “proprietaries” or “cut outs”, like Black Cube, NSO Group (who produced the Pegasus spyware), Flashpoint Intel, SITE Intelligence Group is run by an Iraqi born Israeli, Rita Katz, of the Sassoon family (“Rothschilds of the East”).
SITE Intelligence Group, like these other Mossad cut outs, play all sides and, in this example, pretend to be online white supremacists and then make threat reports to the government, where they get paid your tax dollars to fake threats and skew the US government’s ability to engage is realistic threat assessment. Every single extremist movement online is managed, in this way. Agents pretend to be extremists, then use pre-determined scripts to try and create more extremists to justify payment and legitimize their own operations indefinitely.
https://i.imgur.com/LjFaGpa.png SITE Intelligence agents were (and are still) infiltrating user bases on sites like Voat, Poal.co, talk.lol and other “free speech” forums where they quickly turned them into cesspools filled with over-the-top racism. They are awarded contracts from the US government to engage in this behavior.
On Poal.co, the email addresses and passwords of The Wuhan Institute of Virology, the World Health Organization, The Gates Foundation, and others, were leaked. It was only hours before SITE Intelligence was ready to respond in an article by the Washington Post where they already had security researchers verify the data was real.
Nearly 25,000 email addresses and passwords allegedly from NIH, WHO, Gates Foundation and others are dumped online https://archive.ph/PzpMq This was an interesting situation to watch unfold, as many OSINT researchers on 9chan, EndChan and other niche corners of the Internet used this data to breach these organizations and exfiltrate data. While these organizations were reporting to news outlets that no breaches had occurred, the lie was obvious. Like Hunter Biden data, the material was completely ignored by the mainstream media and Internet astroturfing apparatus. The connections revealed are similar to the web of relationships involved with Tavistock, where there is overlap with Tavistock arms, defense contractors, proprietaries and politicians.
https://i.imgur.com/kBkS8bH.png Connected to the Wuhan Institute of Virology is EcoHealth Alliance, where a series of exposures have shown some of these troubling connections.

PatientPing declined to comment. Juvare CEO Robert Watson told POLITICO that the memo was submitted in response to White House interest, and that the company has spoken with officials across several federal agencies including FEMA, HHS and the CDC about its various emergency preparedness and data tools.
Collective Medical CEO Chris Klomp declined to confirm the memo’s existence or discuss its contents. But he told POLITICO that the company is already providing similar patient monitoring and hospital capacity services to some states for free, and has assembled a coalition of firms including PatientPing willing to aid the broader policy response.
https://archive.ph/qXwDj How Jared Kushner’s Secret Testing Plan “Went Poof Into Thin Air” This spring, a team working under the president’s son-in-law produced a plan for an aggressive, coordinated national COVID-19 response that could have brought the pandemic under control.

Rajiv Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, went to Davos, Switzerland, and served on a panel at the World Economic Forum with climate activist Greta Thunberg. There, he had coffee with WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, whom he’d known from his years working in global public health, first at the Gates Foundation and then as director of USAID, an international development agency within the U.S. government. Shah returned to New York, and to the Rockefeller Foundation headquarters, with a clear understanding: SARS-CoV-2 was going to be the big one.
…
The Rockefeller Foundation would be releasing a follow-up report: It called on the federal government to commit $75 billion more to testing and contact tracing, work to break through the testing bottlenecks that had led to days-long delays in the delivery of test results, and vastly increase more rapid point-of-care tests.
https://archive.ph/1L9bI Perhaps you remember in aforementioned portions that the Rockefeller Foundation also funded Tavistock, initially, and has been a partner throughout.
From QAnon, to Media Matters for America, we see that the Great Internet Shill Machine, like a great deal of political corruption and corporate corruption, all ties together at the top of the halls of power and back through time to the psychosocial weaponization from The Tavistock Institute of Human Relations.

https://archive.ph/wJg6p Joe Biden knew in October 2019. The World Economic Forum with a group of CEOs had a public forum about it in 2019. The Great Reset and "ID2020" all seemed to have foreknowledge, well in advance.
The WEF and the Pandemic
The WEF has been involved in the coronavirus pandemic in several ways.
First, the WEF was, together with the Gates Foundation, a sponsor of the prescient “Event 201” coronavirus pandemic simulation exercise, held in New York City on October 18, 2019 – the same day as the opening of the Wuhan Military World Games, seen by some as “ground zero” of the global pandemic. China itself has argued that US military athletes may have brought the virus to Wuhan.
Second, the WEF has been a leading proponent of digital biometric identity systems, arguing that they will make societies and industries more efficient, more productive and more secure. In July 2019, the WEF started a project to “shape the future of travel with biometric-enabled digital traveler identity management”. In addition, the WEF collaborates with the ID2020 alliance, which is funded by the Gates and Rockefeller foundations and runs a program to “provide digital ID with vaccines”. In particular, ID2020 sees the vaccination of children as “an entry point for digital identity.”
Third, WEF founder Klaus Schwab is the author of the book COVID-19: The Great Reset, published in July 2020, which argues that the coronavirus pandemic can and should be used for an “economic, societal, geopolitical, environmental and technological reset”, including, in particular, advancing global governance, accelerating digital transformation, and tackling climate change.

https://i.imgur.com/XPFUQ1l.png You may have never heard the tale, but there is a blueprint for most things that happen in politics and the Special Counsel for the Whiskey Ring is a close facsimile of the Mueller Special Counsel. The trick was to get the President to fire the Special Counsel, but Trump obviously dusted off his history book and set an honesty trap. Honest people don't get caught in honesty traps. It is the best tool against pathological narcissists. They have no defense against it.
https://i.imgur.com/IlnElFt.png The Whiskey Ring was a classic "bad jacketing" operation, where you plant bad actors close to your target, then arrest them. The Mueller investigation is a product of this historical blueprint. You might spot some of the similarities.
https://archive.ph/XhJBu In the United States, the Whiskey Ring was a scandal, exposed in 1875. The Whiskey Ring began in St. Louis, Missouri but was also organized in Chicago, Illinois; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Cincinnati, Ohio; New Orleans, Louisiana and Peoria, Illinois. The Whiskey Ring involved diversion of tax revenues in a conspiracy among government agents, politicians, whiskey distillers, and distributors. The scheme involved an extensive network of bribes involving distillers, rectifiers, gaugers, storekeepers, and internal revenue agents. Essentially, distillers bribed government officials, and those officials helped the distillers evade federal taxes on the whiskey they produced and sold. Whiskey was supposed to be taxed at 70 cents per gallon, however distillers would instead pay the officials 35 cents per gallon and the illicit whiskey was stamped as having the tax paid. Before they were caught, a group of politicians were able to siphon off millions of dollars in federal taxes.
U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Benjamin Bristow, working without the knowledge of the President or the Attorney General, broke the tightly connected and politically powerful ring in 1875 using secret agents from outside the Treasury department to conduct a series of raids across the country on May 10, 1875. The trials began at Jefferson City, Missouri in October 1875. Ultimately, 110 convictions were made and over $3 million in taxes were recovered. President Ulysses S. Grant appointed General John Brooks Henderson (a former U.S. Senator from Missouri) to serve as special prosecutor in charge of the indictments and trials, but Grant eventually fired Gen. Henderson for challenging Grant's interference in the prosecutions. Grant replaced Henderson with attorney James Broadhead.
The Whiskey Ring was seen by many as a sign of corruption under the Republican governments that took power across the nation following the American Civil War. General Orville E. Babcock, the private secretary to the President, was indicted as a member of the ring — for this reason, President Ulysses S. Grant, although not directly involved in the ring, came to be seen as emblematic of Republican corruption, and later scandals involving his Secretary of War William W. Belknap only confirmed that perception. The Whiskey Ring along with other alleged abuses of power by the Republican party, contributed to national weariness of Reconstruction, which ended Grant's presidency with the Compromise of 1877.
https://i.imgur.com/TqymFtp.png Robert Mueller has managed to botch every investigation of importance that fell before him. I assert that Mueller employs a strategy known as a “limited hang out” designed to let criminals free.
"Limited hangouts" are the norm and the media supports the necessary narrative to help people evade accountability as part of a larger "protection racket."
https://i.imgur.com/zGsHaKg.png The first example is his failed conviction of a large group of Hell’s Angels where, despite a great deal of evidence, chose only to use witness testimony that was paid for in cash. Every single member of the Hell’s Angel that were targeted by Mueller were set free. 5 had to appeal before they were set free, but the massive case resulted in no justice. Anyone remember Hunter Thompson joining the "Black Eye Club" while with the Hell's Angels?
https://i.imgur.com/z0HpWqz.png With a large swathe of the country finally realizing what millions of Americans have already known for years, Robert Mueller has “botched” yet another important investigation. Like allowing Jeffrey Epstein to openly operate as a pedophile pimp in exchange for information; the “frame job” in the Anthrax investigation that was used to assert greater authoritarianism in America; or managing to see to it that they left the curious and unsolved collapse of a whole building out of the 9/11 Commission report; Mueller has been faking investigations his entire career to cover for high level corruption.
https://i.imgur.com/muixDSM.png The Epstein case is a clear example of a limited hangout; no justice, cut an unfair deal with prosecution, allowed to continue crimes (in this case, rape) for decades.
Why did the State Department rent out a five-story upper East Side mansion to Jeffrey Epstein from 1992 to 1996?
https://i.imgur.com/MWNeuo5.png Bungling Cases, Together
https://i.imgur.com/I6ltmjG.png Why does the news hold him up as a hero, when all he does is fail?
https://i.imgur.com/CwjoqNo.png In a stunning coincidence, Robert Mueller was appointed director of the FBI a week before the 9/11 attacks.
The investigation was botched, an entire collapsed building was left out of the 9/11 Commission report, and Robert Mueller admitted that NOTHING was found in the investigation in Pakistan, Afghanistan, or anywhere else they looked, that lead to an arrest. It was Paul Brennan who signed off on all the visas of the hijackers. Doesn’t that warrant an investigation?
https://i.imgur.com/QeoLwOn.png Robert Mueller botched the 9/11 investigation. (Or… did Mueller actually do a remarkable job in covering up the crime?)
https://i.imgur.com/4no7Bqy.png The Anthrax attack was another botched investigation, where Anthrax was sent to politicians in order to sway the Patriot Act vote. The FBI paid out to a person they falsely accused and the next suspect was suicided.
https://i.imgur.com/fhIvKHS.png No One Ever Caught
https://i.imgur.com/ucsmt7m.png But Mueller wasn’t the only one running limited hangouts. Comey operated in a similar manner with Marc Rich of Glencore, the company that trafficks in children for labor in their mines, and who was selling black market uranium to Russia. Comey prosecuted Rich, then Clinton pardoned him, then “investigated” the last-minute pardon, finding nothing wrong. By layering this activity, it is easy to give the illusion of justice while allowing criminals to walk free; for a price.

https://i.imgur.com/BGvpajL.png If it hasn't been made obvious to you, yet, George Soros is at the top of a pyramid for a giant RICO conspiracy. These forces are all working hand in hand, utilizing 'systems psychodynamics' against you.
Somehow, Mueller and Comey both managed to miss tons of bribery and corruption that lead directly to George Soros.
Joe Lewis is the main investor with the Tavistock Group who routinely teams up with George Soros.
Black Wednesday gambler has resurfaced to snatch a major share in a US bank Joe Lewis has not caused this much of a stir since he teamed up with a pack of speculators, including George Soros, to bet on the pound crashing out of the European exchange rate mechanism - which it did 15 years ago this Sunday.
https://archive.ph/R55Y6 Meet Joe Lewis, the Handshake Billionaire It’s possible that the individual institutions that comprise Medical City, over time, would have found their way to Orlando. But if there’s one key player in their arrival at the same time on the same site, it’s Joe Lewis and his investment company, Tavistock Group.
...
Lewis’ biggest currency coup came on Sept. 16, 1992 — “Black Wednesday.” Lewis was among a group of traders, including George Soros, who bet that the English pound was overvalued compared to other European currencies and would fall in value as Britain sought to align it with those currencies. It fell like a stone, and the British government was forced to spend billions propping it up before withdrawing the currency from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism. Soros made $1 billion; Lewis may have made as much. A few years later, Lewis reportedly reaped another massive windfall betting against the Mexican peso.
https://archive.ph/AIO3F Though the $26 billion Soros Fund Management was a pioneering hedge fund, it returned outside investors’ money several years ago and became a family office—a type of structure, largely free of regulation, that is increasingly popular with wealthy clans.
…
Open Society today has a broad mandate driven largely by its founder’s values. It operates through a network of more than 40 foundations and offices in countries from Afghanistan to South Africa.
https://archive.ph/79c2y On August 15, 2016, DCLeaks released 2,576 files predominately related to George Soros' Open Society Foundation. The leak included the Foundation's internal work plans, strategies, priorities and other worldwide activities by Soros.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeer_Influenced_and_Corrupt_Organizations_Act Mueller’s FBI looked the other way from Open Society Foundation’s influence on the DNC while also helping the Clinton Foundation accept bribes for the Uranium One deal.
FBI uncovered Russian bribery plot before Obama administration approved controversial nuclear deal with Moscow https://archive.ph/7HdQu This means Mueller, who was head of FBI at the time allowed it to happen.
Comey, Mueller, Rosenstein, Are Linked to Clinton Uranium One Deal https://archive.ph/m1qNw This means FBI was aware of pay to play and collusion with Russian companies by The Clinton Foundation while Hillary was secretary of state. The New York Times confirms.
Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal https://archive.ph/nqgEf Comey's draft memo cleared Hillary before she was even interviewed.
Comey drafted Clinton exoneration before finishing investigation, GOP senators say https://archive.ph/tvkyj Mueller's tight with The Clinton Foundation. He is a fake Republican; a “RINO” (Republican In Name Only)
Robert Mueller team details millions in ethics disclosures https://archive.ph/94hNd A black-market uranium smuggler was caught with uranium on its way from Novosibirsk (Rosatom's chemical concentration plant) to Iran. The Russians refused to help the Georgian authorities, who had to let the smuggler walk after a short time in jail. Georgia, then asked for the US to help in the investigation where they sent a sample of the HEU, enriched just under weapons grade. Mueller, himself, rather than admit where the uranium came from RETURNED THE EVIDENCE HIMSELF TO RUSSIA, hand delivering the HEU sample on a TARMAC in Russia. Here is the cable that proves it:
ALERTING GOR OF DELIVERY OF SEIZED HEU DURING APRIL 27 FBI DIRECTOR,S TRIP TO MOSCOW
https://archive.ph/lf3FG The smuggler walks and the evidence is so sensitive, it requires Mueller to hand deliver it to Russia. How much more evidence do we need that US intelligence and Russian intelligence are friendly and covering for each other’s crimes?
https://i.imgur.com/3da6ltJ.png In the Middle of the Russian "Reset", Mueller was already protecting the Uranium One deal.

2022.07.20 00:43 SANICISNOTFURRY Ai makes article about Sonic.exe
What is Sonic.exe? Sonic.exe is a viral horror story that concerns an evil version of the video game character, Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic.exe is a game seen in Episode 43 of OmgVk64's AGK series that is a haunted sonic game as well TakerTV1. Sonic.exe is part of a genre of online horror stories known ascreepypasta. Sonic.exe (also known as "X" or "exe" for short) is the titular main antagonist of the Sonic.EXE series. Sonic.EXE is an eldritch entity taking on the form of Sonic the Hedgehog that sends out a haunted game disc featuring the creature killing the main Sonic characters, eventually leading him to rip out the soul of his victim and making them his slave. This is not meant to be a formal definition of Sonic.exe like most terms we define on Dictionary.com, but is rather an informal word summary that hopefully touches upon the key aspects of the meaning and usage of Sonic.exe that will help our users expand their word mastery. Unlike other appearance, Sonic.exe is a burst monster in Leopold's burst. He represents peace. He lets Leopold use his power to defeat enemies when he is weak. Sonic.exe is an Internet creepypasta created by JC-the-Hyena (now by Shannon Love) on November 7th of 2011. According to the creator, the story was originally inspired by an edited screen capture of the title screen for the original Sega Genesis video game. In the image, the sky is colored grey, Sonic's pupils are colored glowing red, his eyeballs are colored black with bloodstains dripping, the water is colored red, and the Sega copyright notice is replaced with "(C) SEGA 666". While people believe Sonic.EXE is ridiculous and will never become popular again, some people tried to make it great again. The sequel/prequel of Sonic.exe centers around a young detective named Derek Green investigating the murders committed by an unknown entity. Sonic.EXE has commonly been thought to be a demon possessing Sonic's body, his first and most well-known fan-made origin, despite the two canonically being separate entities. Sonic.EXE is incredibly strong and is immortal (he can't be damaged and can't be killed). “Welp, what next? Fandroid.exe based off Sonic.exe? If so, I really want to make a fangame of it, lol” This series possesses two clones of Sonic.EXE. The first one seen in "AGK meets Gumball", where he shows his disappointement towards Tails.EXE before finishing him off. Sonic.EXE is the complete opposite of Sonic the Hedgehog, he is a wrathful, tyrannical, malevolent, sadistic, cruel, and twisted monster who takes glee in repeatedly killing anyone's life, even his own slaves, showing him as the definition of pure evil. Exe views humanity to be the perfect plaything and desires to one day have it all to himself for eternity, and believes himself to be a god thanks to his reality-controlling powers. Exe's arrogance and sadism appear to stem from his creative side, so it's possible that he also uses his powers to torture humans just to see what he can do with them, not just because it gives him great pleasure and power over them. “since i have no life and live in my room all day i decided that i wanted to make the unoriginal creepypasta sonic.exe more of a original character” As shown from the original story, Sonic.EXE is able to fly and levitate off the ground, teleport from place to place in a cloud of black smoke, travel through the game and manipulate its code, create dark, ghostly illusions in order to confuse and torment his enemies, and shape-shift in order to look exactly like his idol Sonic. In the second story, he's shown to be highly manipulative and charismatic, able to lead an entire cult to believe he is doing good for the world. Sonic.exe is a friend of Leopold. He asked students of his school of Stephen Quire and he said that kid needs anger management class. In August 2011, user JC-the-Hyena submitted a story on the Creepypasta Wiki about a strange CD-ROM the narrator received from a friend. The CD had SONIC.EXE written on it (.exe is file extension designating an executable file). It centered around the video game franchise and character Sonic the Hedgehog. A prominent feature of the story was the look of its murderous incarnation of Sonic, who had been given black, bleeding eyeballs with glowing red pupils. The creator later explained that the creepypasta had been inspired by an edited screencap of the character. The original Sonic.exe story centers on Tom, a young man who was a big fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, especially the older games. He claimed that he had not played any glitchy or hacked games before, though he admitted that he didn't want to after an experience he had. Sonic.exe grew in popularity, and a game based on Sonic.exe was created in August 2012 by MY5TCrimson, along with other tributes and parodies. The game and story both gathered tributes and parodies. It’s not clear how much of the creepypasta’s appeal was due to its scariness or an ironic appreciation of its amateurish writing and clichéd style, which later got it removed from the Creepypasta Wiki. Part of the humor may lie in the juxtaposition of a cheery, silly video game with grim horror tropes. In Adrenaline21's AGK series, he usually appears on Adrenaline21's Viacom Sonic.exe of Doom as his closing logo also Leopold refers this from the 1st episode when Johnny pranks him with his antic. Later, in the 22nd episode of Adrenaline21's AGK Original Series and 18th episode of Remastered Show... Sonic.exe appears along with Indosiar's Flying Fish of Doom, Viacom BND of Doom, Togsy and Adolf Hitler as Leopold's nightmare. The legacy of Sonic.exe. Sonic.EXE is incredibly strong and is immortal (he can't be damaged and can't be killed). Sonic.exe (also known as "X" or "exe" for short) is the titular main antagonist of the Sonic.EXE series. Sonic.EXE is an eldritch entity taking on the form of Sonic the Hedgehog that sends out a haunted game disc featuring the creature killing the main Sonic characters, eventually leading him to rip out the soul of his victim and making them his slave. The icon for the game file is the same as the original Sonic.exe application icon. Sonic.EXE has commonly been thought to be a demon possessing Sonic's body, his first and most well-known fan-made origin, despite the two canonically being separate entities. The original Sonic.exe story centers on Tom, a young man who was a big fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, especially the older games. He claimed that he had not played any glitchy or hacked games before, though he admitted that he didn't want to after an experience he had. The sequel/prequel of Sonic.exe centers around a young detective named Derek Green investigating the murders committed by an unknown entity.

In the second story, he's shown to be highly manipulative and charismatic, able to lead an entire cult to believe he is doing good for the world. Despite Sonic.EXE's best efforts, he is yet again defeated by Boyfriend. Losing what little remains of his sanity, he lets out a roar of hostility, which causes the area to get glitchy. Sonic.EXE is the complete opposite of Sonic the Hedgehog, he is a wrathful, tyrannical, malevolent, sadistic, cruel, and twisted monster who takes glee in repeatedly killing anyone's life, even his own slaves, showing him as the definition of pure evil. Exe views humanity to be the perfect plaything and desires to one day have it all to himself for eternity, and believes himself to be a god thanks to his reality-controlling powers. Exe's arrogance and sadism appear to stem from his creative side, so it's possible that he also uses his powers to torture humans just to see what he can do with them, not just because it gives him great pleasure and power over them. Sonic.EXE (also referred to as Xenophanes) is the main antagonist of the Friday Night Funkin Mod called Vs Sonic.Exe. He is a dark form of Sonic and a well-received creepypasta. He would find Boyfriend and Girlfriend after putting Tail's head on a spike, and Boyfriend would challenge him to a rap battle. Sonic.exe in "Too Slow" is voiced by MarStarBro, the composer of the track. Altering his form, Sonic.exe makes further attempts to best Boyfriend by thrusting different kinds of notes on him. He even turns them all into SEGA Genesis graphics and transports them to Green Hill Zone temporarily. As the song continues, Sonic.EXE's patience begins to reach the end of its rope and he visibly gets more infuriated over his inability to beat and kill the two. Unexplainably, this depiction of Sonic.exe has purple tentacles coming out of his mouth in his up pose and hands producing from his mouth in his down and right pose. Sonic the Hedgehog from SEGAArt be me(credit me if you use my art or else) We love you, Sonic the Hedgehog, and we always will. Never stop running. Sonic.Exe will appear over Boyfriend and hover his hands at the side of him. Best advised to select "Retry" not because of its overall creepiness but because if you fail to do so, Sonic.Exe will crush you with his hands and send you back to the main menu.

In a final effort to kill Boyfriend, Sonic.EXE unleashes his true form as Xenophanes and summons the souls of Tails, Knuckles, and Eggman to face Boyfriend with him. Many people have hated the Sonic series because of the bad games. They throw insults and hateful thoughts into the series and people even compared it to other franchises especially Mario. Some examples of the hate messages the haters said are in this artwork. Slowly it became a laughing stock. But has it?Deep down in the franchise, there are some people who are still supportive to the series. Unlike most companies which didn’t care for the fans yet they are still successful like Nintendo, SEGA actually cares for their fans, they even took part in fan projects like the Sonic Hacking Contest. There are artists who draw wonderful fan art of the characters and coders who create marvellous fan games. It shows that people cared for the series despite it’s flaws.Not everything is perfect. You just have to leave them be. If it’s bad then leave it alone. At least there are still people that who likes it. Just don’t bash on them. Many of us looked at the bad side but c’mon, just look at the bright side.It’s going to be the same thing for me and pretty much everyone else in the future. We just had a good start but soon things are gonna be bad. As you grow popular, there will be haters discouraging you to move on. But there are also people who support you. There will be bumps on the way but just overcome them and don't listen to the haters. Just always believe in yourself and the people who care about you.

Imagine if there was one desk that all stories could cross so that, at 4am, a media plan could be decided upon and disseminated where all news outlets coordinated to set the goalposts of debate and hyper focused on specific issues to drive a narrative to control how you vote and how you spend money; where Internet shills were given marching orders in tandem to what was shown on television, printed in newspapers and spread throughout articles on the World Wide Web.
https://i.imgur.com/bSBjSkw.png In the past, we had Operation Mockingbird, where the program was supremely confident that it could control stories around the world, even in instructions to cover up any story about a possible “Yeti” sighting, should it turn out they were real.
https://i.imgur.com/XRZneV1.png If, in 1959, the government was confident in its ability to control a story about a Yeti, then what is their level of confidence in controlling stories, today?
https://i.imgur.com/uBphHxd.png In fact, we have a recent example of a situation similar to the Yeti. When Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch met on the TARMAC to spike the Hillary email investigation, the FBI was so confident it wasn’t them, that their entire focus was finding the leaker, starting with searching within the local PD. We have documentation that demonstrates the state of mind of the confidence the upper levels of the FBI have when dealing with the media.
https://i.imgur.com/2wo8dB9.png The marriage between mainstream media and government is a literal one and this arrangement is perfectly legal.
https://i.imgur.com/YpL4UO1.png But, this problem extends far beyond politics; the private sector, the scientific community, even advice forums are shilled heavily. People are paid to cause anxiety, recommend people break up and otherwise sow depression and nervousness. This is due to a correlating force that employs “systems psychodynamics”, focusing on “tension centered” strategies to create “organizational paradoxes” by targeting people’s basic assumptions about the world around them to create division and provide distraction.
https://i.imgur.com/efIe6zU.png https://i.imgur.com/j1mQja0.png https://i.imgur.com/DfIfnoM.png https://i.imgur.com/v5G5Omx.png In this day and age, it is even easier to manage these concepts and push a controlled narrative from a central figure than it has ever been. Allen & Co is a “boutique investment firm” that managed the merger between Disney and Fox and operates as an overseeing force for nearly all media and Internet shill armies, while having it’s fingers in sports, social media, video games, health insurance, etc.
https://i.imgur.com/u1L6ToP.png https://i.imgur.com/T0kepZA.png Former director of the CIA and Paul Brennan’s former superior George Tenet, holds the reigns of Allen & Co. The cast of characters involves a lot of the usual suspects.
https://i.imgur.com/Bn8vDxx.png In 1973, Allen & Company bought a stake in Columbia Pictures. When the business was sold in 1982 to Coca-Cola, it netted a significant profit. Since then, Herbert Allen, Jr. has had a place on Coca-Cola's board of directors.
Since its founding in 1982, the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference has regularly drawn high-profile attendees such as Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Rupert Murdoch, Barry Diller, Michael Eisner, Oprah Winfrey, Robert Johnson, Andy Grove, Richard Parsons, and Donald Keough.
Allen & Co. was one of ten underwriters for the Google initial public offering in 2004. In 2007, Allen was sole advisor to Activision in its $18 billion merger with Vivendi Games. In 2011, the New York Mets hired Allen & Co. to sell a minority stake of the team. That deal later fell apart. In November 2013, Allen & Co. was one of seven underwriters on the initial public offering of Twitter. Allen & Co. was the adviser of Facebook in its $19 billion acquisition of WhatsApp in February 2014.
In 2015, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Time Warner in its $80 billion 2015 merger with Charter Communications, AOL in its acquisition by Verizon, Centene Corporation in its $6.8 billion acquisition of Health Net, and eBay in its separation from PayPal.
In 2016, Allen & Co was the lead advisor to Time Warner in its $108 billion acquisition by AT&T, LinkedIn for its merger talks with Microsoft, Walmart in its $3.3 billion purchase of Jet.com, and Verizon in its $4.8 billion acquisition of Yahoo!. In 2017, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Chewy.com in PetSmart’s $3.35 billion purchase of the online retailer.
Allen & Co throws the Sun Valley Conference every year where you get a glimpse of who sows up. Harvey Weinstein, though a past visitor, was not invited last year.
https://archive.ph/0hkeU Previous conference guests have included Bill and Melinda Gates, Warren and Susan Buffett, Tony Blair, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Allen alumnus and former Philippine Senator Mar Roxas, Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, Quicken Loans Founder & Chairman Dan Gilbert, Yahoo! co-founder Jerry Yang, financier George Soros, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch, eBay CEO Meg Whitman, BET founder Robert Johnson, Time Warner Chairman Richard Parsons, Nike founder and chairman Phil Knight, Dell founder and CEO Michael Dell, NBA player LeBron James, Professor and Entrepreneur Sebastian Thrun, Governor Chris Christie, entertainer Dan Chandler, Katharine Graham of The Washington Post, Diane Sawyer, InterActiveCorp Chairman Barry Diller, Linkedin co-founder Reid Hoffman, entrepreneur Wences Casares, EXOR and FCA Chairman John Elkann, Sandro Salsano from Salsano Group, and Washington Post CEO Donald E. Graham, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, and Oprah Winfrey.
https://i.imgur.com/xrMHsww.png George Tenet, with the reigns of Allen & Co in his hands, is able to single-handedly steer the entire Mockingbird apparatus from cable television to video games to Internet shills from a singular location determining the spectrum of allowable debate. Not only are they able to target people’s conscious psychology, they can target people’s endocrine systems with food and pornography; where people are unaware, on a conscious level, of how their moods and behavior are being manipulated.
https://i.imgur.com/reopD72.png "The problem with George Tenet is that he doesn't seem to care to get his facts straight. He is not meticulous. He is willing to make up stories that suit his purposes and to suppress information that does not."
"Sadly but fittingly, 'At the Center of the Storm' is likely to remind us that sometimes what lies at the center of a storm is a deafening silence."
https://i.imgur.com/5kkhT7D.png Tenet joined President-elect Bill Clinton's national security transition team in November 1992. Clinton appointed Tenet Senior Director for Intelligence Programs at the National Security Council, where he served from 1993 to 1995. Tenet was appointed Deputy Director of Central Intelligence in July 1995. Tenet held the position as the DCI from July 1997 to July 2004. Citing "personal reasons," Tenet submitted his resignation to President Bush on June 3, 2004. Tenet said his resignation "was a personal decision and had only one basis—in fact, the well-being of my wonderful family—nothing more and nothing less. In February 2008, he became a managing director at investment bank Allen & Company.
https://i.imgur.com/QXAMvzT.png We have the documentation that demonstrates what these people could possibly be doing with all of these tools of manipulation at their fingertips.
The term for it is “covert political action” for which all media put before your eyes is used to serve as a veneer… a reality TV show facade of a darker modus operandum.
https://i.imgur.com/jnodkz2.png https://archive.ph/DTRZb It is now clear that we are facing an implacable enemy whose avowed objective is world domination by whatever means and at whatever costs. There are no rules in such a game. Hitherto acceptable norms of human conduct do not apply. If the US is to survive, longstanding American concepts of "fair play" must be reconsidered. We must develop effective espionage and counterespionage services and must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies by more clever, more sophisticated means than those used against us. It may become necessary that the American people be made acquainted with, understand and support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy.
https://archive.ph/V4qhF Intelligence historian Jeffrey T. Richelson says the S.A. has covered a variety of missions. The group, which recently was reorganized, has had about 200 officers, divided among several groups: the Special Operations Group; the Foreign Training Group, which trains foreign police and intelligence officers; the Propaganda and Political Action Group, which handles disinformation; the Computer Operations Group, which handles information warfare; and the Proprietary Management Staff, which manages whatever companies the CIA sets up as covers for the S.A.
Scientology as a CIA Political Action Group – “It is a continuing arrangement…”:
https://mikemcclaughry.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/scientology-as-a-cia-political-action-group-it-is-a-continuing-arrangement/ …Those operations we inaugurated in the years 1955-7 are still secret, but, for present purposes, I can say all that’s worth saying about them in a few sentences – after, that is, I offer these few words of wisdom. The ‘perfect’ political action operation is, by definition, uneventful. Nothing ‘happens’ in it. It is a continuing arrangement, neither a process nor a series of actions proceeding at a starting point and ending with a conclusion.
CIA FBI NSA Personnel Active in Scientology:
https://i.imgur.com/BNVyjsv.png When you consider the number of forces that can be contained within a single “political action group” in the form on a “boutique investment firm,” where all sides of political arguments are predetermined by a selected group of actors who have been planted, compromised or leveraged in some way in order to control the way they spin their message.
https://i.imgur.com/j772ZHV.png The evidence of this coordinated effort is overwhelming and the “consensus” that you see on TV, in sports, in Hollywood, in the news and on the Internet is fabricated.
Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.'
Thus the uninformed reader will most likely develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
When you find yourself feeling like common sense and common courtesy aren’t as common as they ought to be, it is because there is a massive psychological operation controlled from the top down to ensure that as many people as possible are caught in a “tension based” mental loop that is inflicted on them by people acting with purpose to achieve goals that are not in the interest of the general population, but a method of operating in secret and corrupt manner without consequences.
Notice that Jeffrey Katzenberg, of Disney, who is intertwined with Allen & Co funds the Young Turks. He is the perfect example of the relationship between media and politics.
Katzenberg has also been involved in politics. With his active support of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, he was called "one of Hollywood's premier political kingmakers and one of the Democratic Party's top national fundraisers."
With cash from Jeffrey Katzenberg, The Young Turks looks to grow paid subscribers:
https://archive.ph/C8gOs Last week, former DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg’s new mobile entertainment company WndrCo was part of a $20 million funding round in TYT Network, which oversees 30 news and commentary shows covering politics, pop culture, sports and more. This includes the flagship “The Young Turks” program that streams live on YouTube every day. Other investors in the round included venture capital firms Greycroft Partners, E.ventures and 3L Capital, which led the round. This brings total funding for Young Turks to $24 million.
How Hollywood's Political Donors Are Changing Strategies for the Trump Era:
https://archive.ph/mSTvl Hollywood activism long has been depicted as a club controlled by a handful of powerful white men: Katzenberg, Spielberg, Lear, David Geffen, Haim Saban and Bob Iger are the names most often mentioned. But a new generation of power brokers is ascendant, including J.J. Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, cited for their personal donations and bundling skills; Shonda Rhimes, who held a get-out-the-vote rally at USC's Galen Center on Sept. 28 that drew 10,000 people; CAA's Darnell Strom, who has hosted events for Nevada congresswoman Jacky Rosen and Arizona congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema; and former Spotify executive Troy Carter, who held three fundraisers for Maryland gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous (Carter also was a fundraiser for President Obama).
Soros Group Buys Viacom's DreamWorks Film Library:
https://archive.ph/0nx74 Viacom, after splitting off from Les Moonves Les Moonves ' CBS , still holds Paramount Pictures, and that movie studio in December agreed to acquire DreamWorks SKG, the creative shop founded by the Hollywood triumvirate of Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg (a former exec at The Walt Disney Co.). DreamWorks Animation had been spun off into a separate company.
Now it's time for Freston to make back some money--and who better to do a little business with than George Soros? The billionaire financier leads a consortium of Soros Strategic Partners LP and Dune Entertainment II LLC, which together are buying the DreamWorks library--a collection of 59 flicks, including Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, and American Beauty.
The money you spend on media and junk food and in taxes goes to these groups who then decide how best to market at you so that they decide how you vote by creating a fake consensus to trick into thinking that you want something other than what is best for you; but will inevitably result in more money being funneled to the top, creating further separation between the super rich and the average person. The goal will be to assert creeping authoritarianism by generating outrage against policies and issues they hate. Part of manipulating your basic assumptions is also to use schadenfreude (think canned laughter on TV) against characters who support the cause that might actually do you the most good (which reaffirms and strengthens your confirmation biased along predetermined political lines).
https://i.imgur.com/TyZBk62.png We have a population being taught to hate socialism and love capitalism when the truth is no country is practicing either. These terms are merely disguises for political oligarchies where the collection of wealth is less about getting themselves rich and more about keeping everyone else poor.
What can you guess about the world around you if it turned out that every consensus that was forced on you was fake?
How much money would it take to make it look like 51% of the Internet believed in completely idiotic ideas? Combine shill operations with automation and AI’s, and the cost becomes a good investment relative to the return when measured in political power.
Even the people who are well intentioned and very vocal do not have to consciously be aware that they are working for a political action group. A covert political group will always prefer an unwitting tool to help push their agenda, so that they can remain in the shadows.

It was deemed necessary by senior Directorate of Operations members to initiate Operation CUCKOO as an extension of Operation CLEANSWEEP on November 30th. After Mary Pinchot Meyer threatened to report her knowledge of Operation GUILLOTENE and the details of her work in Operation SIREN from her affair with the former President.
Special Activities Division was given the green light after briefing president Johnson on the situation. The situation report was forwarded to the Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of staff, who both approved of the parameters of the operation, as outlined under article C of secret executive order 37 (see attached copy of article).
PLANNING STAGES
8 members of the special activities division handpicked by operation lead William King Harvey began planning for the operation on October 3rd, with planned execution before October 16th.
The (?) of the operation was set as the neighborhood of Georgetown along the Potomac river, where the operators would observe, take note on routines, and eventually carry the operation.
After nothing Meyer's routines, Edward "Eddy" Reid was picked as the operation point man who would intersect Meyer on her walk on October 12th, with lead William King Harvey providing long range support if necessary from across the Chesapeake and Ohio canal (see illustration A for detailed map).
Edward Reid was planned to be dressed in the manner of a homeless black man, due to his resemblances to local trash collector (later found out to be Raymond Crump) who inhabits the AO and the path that Reid was planned to intersect Meyer.

Imagine if there was one desk that all stories could cross so that, at 4am, a media plan could be decided upon and disseminated where all news outlets coordinated to set the goalposts of debate and hyper focused on specific issues to drive a narrative to control how you vote and how you spend money; where Internet shills were given marching orders in tandem to what was shown on television, printed in newspapers and spread throughout articles on the World Wide Web.
https://i.imgur.com/bSBjSkw.png In the past, we had Operation Mockingbird, where the program was supremely confident that it could control stories around the world, even in instructions to cover up any story about a possible “Yeti” sighting, should it turn out they were real.
https://i.imgur.com/XRZneV1.png If, in 1959, the government was confident in its ability to control a story about a Yeti, then what is their level of confidence in controlling stories, today?
https://i.imgur.com/uBphHxd.png In fact, we have a recent example of a situation similar to the Yeti. When Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch met on the TARMAC to spike the Hillary email investigation, the FBI was so confident it wasn’t them, that their entire focus was finding the leaker, starting with searching within the local PD. We have documentation that demonstrates the state of mind of the confidence the upper levels of the FBI have when dealing with the media.
https://i.imgur.com/2wo8dB9.png The marriage between mainstream media and government is a literal one and this arrangement is perfectly legal.
https://i.imgur.com/YpL4UO1.png But, this problem extends far beyond politics; the private sector, the scientific community, even advice forums are shilled heavily. People are paid to cause anxiety, recommend people break up and otherwise sow depression and nervousness. This is due to a correlating force that employs “systems psychodynamics”, focusing on “tension centered” strategies to create “organizational paradoxes” by targeting people’s basic assumptions about the world around them to create division and provide distraction.
https://i.imgur.com/efIe6zU.png https://i.imgur.com/j1mQja0.png https://i.imgur.com/DfIfnoM.png https://i.imgur.com/v5G5Omx.png In this day and age, it is even easier to manage these concepts and push a controlled narrative from a central figure than it has ever been. Allen & Co is a “boutique investment firm” that managed the merger between Disney and Fox and operates as an overseeing force for nearly all media and Internet shill armies, while having it’s fingers in sports, social media, video games, health insurance, etc.
https://i.imgur.com/u1L6ToP.png https://i.imgur.com/T0kepZA.png Former director of the CIA and Paul Brennan’s former superior George Tenet, holds the reigns of Allen & Co. The cast of characters involves a lot of the usual suspects.
https://i.imgur.com/Bn8vDxx.png In 1973, Allen & Company bought a stake in Columbia Pictures. When the business was sold in 1982 to Coca-Cola, it netted a significant profit. Since then, Herbert Allen, Jr. has had a place on Coca-Cola's board of directors.
Since its founding in 1982, the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference has regularly drawn high-profile attendees such as Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Rupert Murdoch, Barry Diller, Michael Eisner, Oprah Winfrey, Robert Johnson, Andy Grove, Richard Parsons, and Donald Keough.
Allen & Co. was one of ten underwriters for the Google initial public offering in 2004. In 2007, Allen was sole advisor to Activision in its $18 billion merger with Vivendi Games. In 2011, the New York Mets hired Allen & Co. to sell a minority stake of the team. That deal later fell apart. In November 2013, Allen & Co. was one of seven underwriters on the initial public offering of Twitter. Allen & Co. was the adviser of Facebook in its $19 billion acquisition of WhatsApp in February 2014.
In 2015, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Time Warner in its $80 billion 2015 merger with Charter Communications, AOL in its acquisition by Verizon, Centene Corporation in its $6.8 billion acquisition of Health Net, and eBay in its separation from PayPal.
In 2016, Allen & Co was the lead advisor to Time Warner in its $108 billion acquisition by AT&T, LinkedIn for its merger talks with Microsoft, Walmart in its $3.3 billion purchase of Jet.com, and Verizon in its $4.8 billion acquisition of Yahoo!. In 2017, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Chewy.com in PetSmart’s $3.35 billion purchase of the online retailer.
Allen & Co throws the Sun Valley Conference every year where you get a glimpse of who sows up. Harvey Weinstein, though a past visitor, was not invited last year.
https://archive.ph/0hkeU Previous conference guests have included Bill and Melinda Gates, Warren and Susan Buffett, Tony Blair, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Allen alumnus and former Philippine Senator Mar Roxas, Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, Quicken Loans Founder & Chairman Dan Gilbert, Yahoo! co-founder Jerry Yang, financier George Soros, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch, eBay CEO Meg Whitman, BET founder Robert Johnson, Time Warner Chairman Richard Parsons, Nike founder and chairman Phil Knight, Dell founder and CEO Michael Dell, NBA player LeBron James, Professor and Entrepreneur Sebastian Thrun, Governor Chris Christie, entertainer Dan Chandler, Katharine Graham of The Washington Post, Diane Sawyer, InterActiveCorp Chairman Barry Diller, Linkedin co-founder Reid Hoffman, entrepreneur Wences Casares, EXOR and FCA Chairman John Elkann, Sandro Salsano from Salsano Group, and Washington Post CEO Donald E. Graham, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, and Oprah Winfrey.
https://i.imgur.com/xrMHsww.png George Tenet, with the reigns of Allen & Co in his hands, is able to single-handedly steer the entire Mockingbird apparatus from cable television to video games to Internet shills from a singular location determining the spectrum of allowable debate. Not only are they able to target people’s conscious psychology, they can target people’s endocrine systems with food and pornography; where people are unaware, on a conscious level, of how their moods and behavior are being manipulated.
https://i.imgur.com/reopD72.png "The problem with George Tenet is that he doesn't seem to care to get his facts straight. He is not meticulous. He is willing to make up stories that suit his purposes and to suppress information that does not."
"Sadly but fittingly, 'At the Center of the Storm' is likely to remind us that sometimes what lies at the center of a storm is a deafening silence."
https://i.imgur.com/5kkhT7D.png Tenet joined President-elect Bill Clinton's national security transition team in November 1992. Clinton appointed Tenet Senior Director for Intelligence Programs at the National Security Council, where he served from 1993 to 1995. Tenet was appointed Deputy Director of Central Intelligence in July 1995. Tenet held the position as the DCI from July 1997 to July 2004. Citing "personal reasons," Tenet submitted his resignation to President Bush on June 3, 2004. Tenet said his resignation "was a personal decision and had only one basis—in fact, the well-being of my wonderful family—nothing more and nothing less. In February 2008, he became a managing director at investment bank Allen & Company.
https://i.imgur.com/QXAMvzT.png We have the documentation that demonstrates what these people could possibly be doing with all of these tools of manipulation at their fingertips.
The term for it is “covert political action” for which all media put before your eyes is used to serve as a veneer… a reality TV show facade of a darker modus operandum.
https://i.imgur.com/jnodkz2.png https://archive.ph/DTRZb It is now clear that we are facing an implacable enemy whose avowed objective is world domination by whatever means and at whatever costs. There are no rules in such a game. Hitherto acceptable norms of human conduct do not apply. If the US is to survive, longstanding American concepts of "fair play" must be reconsidered. We must develop effective espionage and counterespionage services and must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies by more clever, more sophisticated means than those used against us. It may become necessary that the American people be made acquainted with, understand and support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy.
https://archive.ph/V4qhF Intelligence historian Jeffrey T. Richelson says the S.A. has covered a variety of missions. The group, which recently was reorganized, has had about 200 officers, divided among several groups: the Special Operations Group; the Foreign Training Group, which trains foreign police and intelligence officers; the Propaganda and Political Action Group, which handles disinformation; the Computer Operations Group, which handles information warfare; and the Proprietary Management Staff, which manages whatever companies the CIA sets up as covers for the S.A.
Scientology as a CIA Political Action Group – “It is a continuing arrangement…”:
https://mikemcclaughry.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/scientology-as-a-cia-political-action-group-it-is-a-continuing-arrangement/ …Those operations we inaugurated in the years 1955-7 are still secret, but, for present purposes, I can say all that’s worth saying about them in a few sentences – after, that is, I offer these few words of wisdom. The ‘perfect’ political action operation is, by definition, uneventful. Nothing ‘happens’ in it. It is a continuing arrangement, neither a process nor a series of actions proceeding at a starting point and ending with a conclusion.
CIA FBI NSA Personnel Active in Scientology:
https://i.imgur.com/BNVyjsv.png When you consider the number of forces that can be contained within a single “political action group” in the form on a “boutique investment firm,” where all sides of political arguments are predetermined by a selected group of actors who have been planted, compromised or leveraged in some way in order to control the way they spin their message.
https://i.imgur.com/j772ZHV.png The evidence of this coordinated effort is overwhelming and the “consensus” that you see on TV, in sports, in Hollywood, in the news and on the Internet is fabricated.
Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.'
Thus the uninformed reader will most likely develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
When you find yourself feeling like common sense and common courtesy aren’t as common as they ought to be, it is because there is a massive psychological operation controlled from the top down to ensure that as many people as possible are caught in a “tension based” mental loop that is inflicted on them by people acting with purpose to achieve goals that are not in the interest of the general population, but a method of operating in secret and corrupt manner without consequences.
Notice that Jeffrey Katzenberg, of Disney, who is intertwined with Allen & Co funds the Young Turks. He is the perfect example of the relationship between media and politics.
Katzenberg has also been involved in politics. With his active support of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, he was called "one of Hollywood's premier political kingmakers and one of the Democratic Party's top national fundraisers."
With cash from Jeffrey Katzenberg, The Young Turks looks to grow paid subscribers:
https://archive.ph/C8gOs Last week, former DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg’s new mobile entertainment company WndrCo was part of a $20 million funding round in TYT Network, which oversees 30 news and commentary shows covering politics, pop culture, sports and more. This includes the flagship “The Young Turks” program that streams live on YouTube every day. Other investors in the round included venture capital firms Greycroft Partners, E.ventures and 3L Capital, which led the round. This brings total funding for Young Turks to $24 million.
How Hollywood's Political Donors Are Changing Strategies for the Trump Era:
https://archive.ph/mSTvl Hollywood activism long has been depicted as a club controlled by a handful of powerful white men: Katzenberg, Spielberg, Lear, David Geffen, Haim Saban and Bob Iger are the names most often mentioned. But a new generation of power brokers is ascendant, including J.J. Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, cited for their personal donations and bundling skills; Shonda Rhimes, who held a get-out-the-vote rally at USC's Galen Center on Sept. 28 that drew 10,000 people; CAA's Darnell Strom, who has hosted events for Nevada congresswoman Jacky Rosen and Arizona congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema; and former Spotify executive Troy Carter, who held three fundraisers for Maryland gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous (Carter also was a fundraiser for President Obama).
Soros Group Buys Viacom's DreamWorks Film Library:
https://archive.ph/0nx74 Viacom, after splitting off from Les Moonves Les Moonves ' CBS , still holds Paramount Pictures, and that movie studio in December agreed to acquire DreamWorks SKG, the creative shop founded by the Hollywood triumvirate of Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg (a former exec at The Walt Disney Co.). DreamWorks Animation had been spun off into a separate company.
Now it's time for Freston to make back some money--and who better to do a little business with than George Soros? The billionaire financier leads a consortium of Soros Strategic Partners LP and Dune Entertainment II LLC, which together are buying the DreamWorks library--a collection of 59 flicks, including Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, and American Beauty.
The money you spend on media and junk food and in taxes goes to these groups who then decide how best to market at you so that they decide how you vote by creating a fake consensus to trick into thinking that you want something other than what is best for you; but will inevitably result in more money being funneled to the top, creating further separation between the super rich and the average person. The goal will be to assert creeping authoritarianism by generating outrage against policies and issues they hate. Part of manipulating your basic assumptions is also to use schadenfreude (think canned laughter on TV) against characters who support the cause that might actually do you the most good (which reaffirms and strengthens your confirmation biased along predetermined political lines).
https://i.imgur.com/TyZBk62.png We have a population being taught to hate socialism and love capitalism when the truth is no country is practicing either. These terms are merely disguises for political oligarchies where the collection of wealth is less about getting themselves rich and more about keeping everyone else poor.
What can you guess about the world around you if it turned out that every consensus that was forced on you was fake?
How much money would it take to make it look like 51% of the Internet believed in completely idiotic ideas? Combine shill operations with automation and AI’s, and the cost becomes a good investment relative to the return when measured in political power.
Even the people who are well intentioned and very vocal do not have to consciously be aware that they are working for a political action group. A covert political group will always prefer an unwitting tool to help push their agenda, so that they can remain in the shadows.

CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
Directorate of Operations
October 16, 1964
MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF THE CIA
Subject: After action report of
Operation CUCKOO (TS)
INTRODUCTION
Operation CUCKOO was part of the overall operation CLEANSWEEP, aimed at eliminating domestic opposition to activities undertaken by the Central Intelligence Agency's special activities division, in main regard to operation GUILLOTINE.
Operation CUCKOO was approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Department of Defense and the office of The President of the United States as a covert domestic action to be under taken within the limits of Washington D.C as outlined by Secret Executive Order 37.
Following the publishing of the Warren Commission, former special agent Mary Pinchot Meyer (Operation MOCKINGBIRD, Operation SIREN) also was married to Cord Meyer (Operation MOCKINGBIRD, Operation GUILLOTINE) threatened to disclose the details of several Special Activities Divisions' operations, including but not limited to, Operation SIREN and GUILLOTENE.

TOP SECRET SPECIAL HANDLING NOFORN
It was deemed necessary by senior Directorate of Operations members to initiate Operation CUCKOO as an extension of Operation CLEANSWEEP on November 30th. After Mary Pinchot Meyer threatened to report her knowledge of Operation GUILLOTENE and the details of her work in Operation SIREN from her affair with the former President.
Special Activities Division was given the green light after briefing president Johnson on the situation. The situation report was forwarded to the Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of staff, who both approved of the parameters of the operation, as outlined under article C of secret executive order 37 (see attached copy of article).
PLANNING STAGES
8 members of the special activities division handpicked by operation lead William King Harvey began planning for the operation on October 3rd, with planned execution before October 16th.
The (?) of the operation was set as the neighborhood of Georgetown along the Potomac river, where the operators would observe, take note on routines, and eventually carry the operation.
After nothing Meyer's routines, Edward "Eddy" Reid was picked as the operation point man who would intersect Meyer on her walk on October 12th, with lead William King Harvey providing long range support if necessary from across the Chesapeake and Ohio canal (see illustration A for detailed map).
Edward Reid was planned to be dressed in the manner of a homeless black man, due to his resemblances to local trash collector (later found out to be Raymond Crump) who inhabits the AO and the path that Reid was planned to intersect Meyer.

Imagine if there was one desk that all stories could cross so that, at 4am, a media plan could be decided upon and disseminated where all news outlets coordinated to set the goalposts of debate and hyper focused on specific issues to drive a narrative to control how you vote and how you spend money; where Internet shills were given marching orders in tandem to what was shown on television, printed in newspapers and spread throughout articles on the World Wide Web.
https://i.imgur.com/bSBjSkw.png In the past, we had Operation Mockingbird, where the program was supremely confident that it could control stories around the world, even in instructions to cover up any story about a possible “Yeti” sighting, should it turn out they were real.
https://i.imgur.com/XRZneV1.png If, in 1959, the government was confident in its ability to control a story about a Yeti, then what is their level of confidence in controlling stories, today?
https://i.imgur.com/uBphHxd.png In fact, we have a recent example of a situation similar to the Yeti. When Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch met on the TARMAC to spike the Hillary email investigation, the FBI was so confident it wasn’t them, that their entire focus was finding the leaker, starting with searching within the local PD. We have documentation that demonstrates the state of mind of the confidence the upper levels of the FBI have when dealing with the media.
https://i.imgur.com/2wo8dB9.png The marriage between mainstream media and government is a literal one and this arrangement is perfectly legal.
https://i.imgur.com/YpL4UO1.png But, this problem extends far beyond politics; the private sector, the scientific community, even advice forums are shilled heavily. People are paid to cause anxiety, recommend people break up and otherwise sow depression and nervousness. This is due to a correlating force that employs “systems psychodynamics”, focusing on “tension centered” strategies to create “organizational paradoxes” by targeting people’s basic assumptions about the world around them to create division and provide distraction.
https://i.imgur.com/efIe6zU.png https://i.imgur.com/j1mQja0.png https://i.imgur.com/DfIfnoM.png https://i.imgur.com/v5G5Omx.png In this day and age, it is even easier to manage these concepts and push a controlled narrative from a central figure than it has ever been. Allen & Co is a “boutique investment firm” that managed the merger between Disney and Fox and operates as an overseeing force for nearly all media and Internet shill armies, while having it’s fingers in sports, social media, video games, health insurance, etc.
https://i.imgur.com/u1L6ToP.png https://i.imgur.com/T0kepZA.png Former director of the CIA and Paul Brennan’s former superior George Tenet, holds the reigns of Allen & Co. The cast of characters involves a lot of the usual suspects.
https://i.imgur.com/Bn8vDxx.png In 1973, Allen & Company bought a stake in Columbia Pictures. When the business was sold in 1982 to Coca-Cola, it netted a significant profit. Since then, Herbert Allen, Jr. has had a place on Coca-Cola's board of directors.
Since its founding in 1982, the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference has regularly drawn high-profile attendees such as Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Rupert Murdoch, Barry Diller, Michael Eisner, Oprah Winfrey, Robert Johnson, Andy Grove, Richard Parsons, and Donald Keough.
Allen & Co. was one of ten underwriters for the Google initial public offering in 2004. In 2007, Allen was sole advisor to Activision in its $18 billion merger with Vivendi Games. In 2011, the New York Mets hired Allen & Co. to sell a minority stake of the team. That deal later fell apart. In November 2013, Allen & Co. was one of seven underwriters on the initial public offering of Twitter. Allen & Co. was the adviser of Facebook in its $19 billion acquisition of WhatsApp in February 2014.
In 2015, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Time Warner in its $80 billion 2015 merger with Charter Communications, AOL in its acquisition by Verizon, Centene Corporation in its $6.8 billion acquisition of Health Net, and eBay in its separation from PayPal.
In 2016, Allen & Co was the lead advisor to Time Warner in its $108 billion acquisition by AT&T, LinkedIn for its merger talks with Microsoft, Walmart in its $3.3 billion purchase of Jet.com, and Verizon in its $4.8 billion acquisition of Yahoo!. In 2017, Allen & Co. was the advisor to Chewy.com in PetSmart’s $3.35 billion purchase of the online retailer.
Allen & Co throws the Sun Valley Conference every year where you get a glimpse of who sows up. Harvey Weinstein, though a past visitor, was not invited last year.
https://archive.ph/0hkeU Previous conference guests have included Bill and Melinda Gates, Warren and Susan Buffett, Tony Blair, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Allen alumnus and former Philippine Senator Mar Roxas, Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, Quicken Loans Founder & Chairman Dan Gilbert, Yahoo! co-founder Jerry Yang, financier George Soros, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch, eBay CEO Meg Whitman, BET founder Robert Johnson, Time Warner Chairman Richard Parsons, Nike founder and chairman Phil Knight, Dell founder and CEO Michael Dell, NBA player LeBron James, Professor and Entrepreneur Sebastian Thrun, Governor Chris Christie, entertainer Dan Chandler, Katharine Graham of The Washington Post, Diane Sawyer, InterActiveCorp Chairman Barry Diller, Linkedin co-founder Reid Hoffman, entrepreneur Wences Casares, EXOR and FCA Chairman John Elkann, Sandro Salsano from Salsano Group, and Washington Post CEO Donald E. Graham, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, and Oprah Winfrey.
https://i.imgur.com/xrMHsww.png George Tenet, with the reigns of Allen & Co in his hands, is able to single-handedly steer the entire Mockingbird apparatus from cable television to video games to Internet shills from a singular location determining the spectrum of allowable debate. Not only are they able to target people’s conscious psychology, they can target people’s endocrine systems with food and pornography; where people are unaware, on a conscious level, of how their moods and behavior are being manipulated.
https://i.imgur.com/reopD72.png "The problem with George Tenet is that he doesn't seem to care to get his facts straight. He is not meticulous. He is willing to make up stories that suit his purposes and to suppress information that does not."
"Sadly but fittingly, 'At the Center of the Storm' is likely to remind us that sometimes what lies at the center of a storm is a deafening silence."
https://i.imgur.com/5kkhT7D.png Tenet joined President-elect Bill Clinton's national security transition team in November 1992. Clinton appointed Tenet Senior Director for Intelligence Programs at the National Security Council, where he served from 1993 to 1995. Tenet was appointed Deputy Director of Central Intelligence in July 1995. Tenet held the position as the DCI from July 1997 to July 2004. Citing "personal reasons," Tenet submitted his resignation to President Bush on June 3, 2004. Tenet said his resignation "was a personal decision and had only one basis—in fact, the well-being of my wonderful family—nothing more and nothing less. In February 2008, he became a managing director at investment bank Allen & Company.
https://i.imgur.com/QXAMvzT.png We have the documentation that demonstrates what these people could possibly be doing with all of these tools of manipulation at their fingertips.
The term for it is “covert political action” for which all media put before your eyes is used to serve as a veneer… a reality TV show facade of a darker modus operandum.
https://i.imgur.com/jnodkz2.png https://archive.ph/DTRZb It is now clear that we are facing an implacable enemy whose avowed objective is world domination by whatever means and at whatever costs. There are no rules in such a game. Hitherto acceptable norms of human conduct do not apply. If the US is to survive, longstanding American concepts of "fair play" must be reconsidered. We must develop effective espionage and counterespionage services and must learn to subvert, sabotage and destroy our enemies by more clever, more sophisticated means than those used against us. It may become necessary that the American people be made acquainted with, understand and support this fundamentally repugnant philosophy.
https://archive.ph/V4qhF Intelligence historian Jeffrey T. Richelson says the S.A. has covered a variety of missions. The group, which recently was reorganized, has had about 200 officers, divided among several groups: the Special Operations Group; the Foreign Training Group, which trains foreign police and intelligence officers; the Propaganda and Political Action Group, which handles disinformation; the Computer Operations Group, which handles information warfare; and the Proprietary Management Staff, which manages whatever companies the CIA sets up as covers for the S.A.
Scientology as a CIA Political Action Group – “It is a continuing arrangement…”:
https://mikemcclaughry.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/scientology-as-a-cia-political-action-group-it-is-a-continuing-arrangement/ …Those operations we inaugurated in the years 1955-7 are still secret, but, for present purposes, I can say all that’s worth saying about them in a few sentences – after, that is, I offer these few words of wisdom. The ‘perfect’ political action operation is, by definition, uneventful. Nothing ‘happens’ in it. It is a continuing arrangement, neither a process nor a series of actions proceeding at a starting point and ending with a conclusion.
CIA FBI NSA Personnel Active in Scientology:
https://i.imgur.com/BNVyjsv.png When you consider the number of forces that can be contained within a single “political action group” in the form on a “boutique investment firm,” where all sides of political arguments are predetermined by a selected group of actors who have been planted, compromised or leveraged in some way in order to control the way they spin their message.
https://i.imgur.com/j772ZHV.png The evidence of this coordinated effort is overwhelming and the “consensus” that you see on TV, in sports, in Hollywood, in the news and on the Internet is fabricated.
Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.'
Thus the uninformed reader will most likely develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
When you find yourself feeling like common sense and common courtesy aren’t as common as they ought to be, it is because there is a massive psychological operation controlled from the top down to ensure that as many people as possible are caught in a “tension based” mental loop that is inflicted on them by people acting with purpose to achieve goals that are not in the interest of the general population, but a method of operating in secret and corrupt manner without consequences.
Notice that Jeffrey Katzenberg, of Disney, who is intertwined with Allen & Co funds the Young Turks. He is the perfect example of the relationship between media and politics.
Katzenberg has also been involved in politics. With his active support of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, he was called "one of Hollywood's premier political kingmakers and one of the Democratic Party's top national fundraisers."
With cash from Jeffrey Katzenberg, The Young Turks looks to grow paid subscribers:
https://archive.ph/C8gOs Last week, former DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg’s new mobile entertainment company WndrCo was part of a $20 million funding round in TYT Network, which oversees 30 news and commentary shows covering politics, pop culture, sports and more. This includes the flagship “The Young Turks” program that streams live on YouTube every day. Other investors in the round included venture capital firms Greycroft Partners, E.ventures and 3L Capital, which led the round. This brings total funding for Young Turks to $24 million.
How Hollywood's Political Donors Are Changing Strategies for the Trump Era:
https://archive.ph/mSTvl Hollywood activism long has been depicted as a club controlled by a handful of powerful white men: Katzenberg, Spielberg, Lear, David Geffen, Haim Saban and Bob Iger are the names most often mentioned. But a new generation of power brokers is ascendant, including J.J. Abrams and his wife, Katie McGrath, cited for their personal donations and bundling skills; Shonda Rhimes, who held a get-out-the-vote rally at USC's Galen Center on Sept. 28 that drew 10,000 people; CAA's Darnell Strom, who has hosted events for Nevada congresswoman Jacky Rosen and Arizona congresswoman Kyrsten Sinema; and former Spotify executive Troy Carter, who held three fundraisers for Maryland gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous (Carter also was a fundraiser for President Obama).
Soros Group Buys Viacom's DreamWorks Film Library:
https://archive.ph/0nx74 Viacom, after splitting off from Les Moonves Les Moonves ' CBS , still holds Paramount Pictures, and that movie studio in December agreed to acquire DreamWorks SKG, the creative shop founded by the Hollywood triumvirate of Steven Spielberg, David Geffen and Jeffrey Katzenberg (a former exec at The Walt Disney Co.). DreamWorks Animation had been spun off into a separate company.
Now it's time for Freston to make back some money--and who better to do a little business with than George Soros? The billionaire financier leads a consortium of Soros Strategic Partners LP and Dune Entertainment II LLC, which together are buying the DreamWorks library--a collection of 59 flicks, including Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, and American Beauty.
The money you spend on media and junk food and in taxes goes to these groups who then decide how best to market at you so that they decide how you vote by creating a fake consensus to trick into thinking that you want something other than what is best for you; but will inevitably result in more money being funneled to the top, creating further separation between the super rich and the average person. The goal will be to assert creeping authoritarianism by generating outrage against policies and issues they hate. Part of manipulating your basic assumptions is also to use schadenfreude (think canned laughter on TV) against characters who support the cause that might actually do you the most good (which reaffirms and strengthens your confirmation biased along predetermined political lines).
https://i.imgur.com/TyZBk62.png We have a population being taught to hate socialism and love capitalism when the truth is no country is practicing either. These terms are merely disguises for political oligarchies where the collection of wealth is less about getting themselves rich and more about keeping everyone else poor.
What can you guess about the world around you if it turned out that every consensus that was forced on you was fake?
How much money would it take to make it look like 51% of the Internet believed in completely idiotic ideas? Combine shill operations with automation and AI’s, and the cost becomes a good investment relative to the return when measured in political power.
Even the people who are well intentioned and very vocal do not have to consciously be aware that they are working for a political action group. A covert political group will always prefer an unwitting tool to help push their agenda, so that they can remain in the shadows.

CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
Directorate of Operations
October 16, 1964
MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF THE CIA
Subject: After action report of
Operation CUCKOO (TS)
INTRODUCTION
Operation CUCKOO was part of the overall operation CLEANSWEEP, aimed at eliminating domestic opposition to activities undertaken by the Central Intelligence Agency's special activities division, in main regard to operation GUILLOTINE.
Operation CUCKOO was approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Department of Defense and the office of The President of the United States as a covert domestic action to be under taken within the limits of Washington D.C as outlined by Secret Executive Order 37.
Following the publishing of the Warren Commission, former special agent Mary Pinchot Meyer (Operation MOCKINGBIRD, Operation SIREN) also was married to Cord Meyer (Operation MOCKINGBIRD, Operation GUILLOTINE) threatened to disclose the details of several Special Activities Divisions' operations, including but not limited to, Operation SIREN and GUILLOTENE.

TOP SECRET SPECIAL HANDLING NOFORN
It was deemed necessary by senior Directorate of Operations members to initiate Operation CUCKOO as an extension of Operation CLEANSWEEP on November 30th. After Mary Pinchot Meyer threatened to report her knowledge of Operation GUILLOTENE and the details of her work in Operation SIREN from her affair with the former President.
Special Activities Division was given the green light after briefing president Johnson on the situation. The situation report was forwarded to the Department of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of staff, who both approved of the parameters of the operation, as outlined under article C of secret executive order 37 (see attached copy of article).
PLANNING STAGES
8 members of the special activities division handpicked by operation lead William King Harvey began planning for the operation on October 3rd, with planned execution before October 16th.
The (?) of the operation was set as the neighborhood of Georgetown along the Potomac river, where the operators would observe, take note on routines, and eventually carry the operation.
After nothing Meyer's routines, Edward "Eddy" Reid was picked as the operation point man who would intersect Meyer on her walk on October 12th, with lead William King Harvey providing long range support if necessary from across the Chesapeake and Ohio canal (see illustration A for detailed map).
Edward Reid was planned to be dressed in the manner of a homeless black man, due to his resemblances to local trash collector (later found out to be Raymond Crump) who inhabits the AO and the path that Reid was planned to intersect Meyer.

2022.06.22 20:45 089jonas Die GameStop Marktcrash Absicherungsthese - Eine umfassende Analyse anhand der Daten, die wir in den letzten 18 Monaten gesammelt haben
| Originalbeitrag von u/xXfatboi69420tattoos Diese Analyse enthält keine Memes, keine Hype-Daten, keine kryptischen Tweet-Analysen und nur minimale Spekulationen auf der Grundlage bekannter Marktmechanismen. Dies ist ein kumulativer, faktenbasierter Bericht über das, was wir bis heute wissen. Zusammenfassung GameStop ist bereit für den größten Short-Squeeze, den der Markt je gesehen hat. Der Abschnitt über den sogenannten "Sneeze" im Januar 2021 zeigt anhand von SEC-Berichten, dass das Short Covering nur einen Bruchteil des Kaufvolumens während des Sneeze ausmachte. Massive Short-Positionen sind offen und versteckt in ETFs und Swaps, die nicht gemeldet werden müssen. Die aktuelle Marktbedingungen sind spekulativ, aber zeigen deutliche Anzeichen für eine bevorstehende Rezession und/oder einen Marktcrash. Der GameStop Squeeze ist dagegen unvermeidlich, da GameStop in guter Verfassung ist und kein Risiko eines Bankrotts besteht. Die Borrow and Utilization Raten zeigen, dass die Aktie illiquide und schwer zu finden ist. Ein negatives Beta ist ein starker Indikator dafür, dass sich GameStop umgekehrt zum Markt verhält, der auf einen größeren Abschwung zusteuert. Sogar mit dem aktuell gemeldeten Short Interest und ohne versteckte Short-Positionen ist GameStop bereit, sich um ein Vielfaches über seine aktuelle Marktkapitalisierung zu bewegen. Die DRS-Statistiken von ComputerShare liefern den Beweis dafür, dass der Ausgang für Short-Positionen jeden Tag kleiner wird und geschlossen werden kann, wodurch es für die Shorts schwieriger wird, ihre Positionen vollständig zu schließen. Warum Short Squeezes vorkommen Optimale Short-Squeeze-Bedingungen [SEC.gov Staff Report on Equity and Options Market Structure] Die Short-Interest Quoten sind in der Regel recht niedrig; bei großen Nicht-Finanzwerten liegen sie oft unter 2,5 %, während sie bei kleinen Nicht-Finanzwerten in der Regel immer noch unter 13 % liegen. Wenige Aktien, wenn überhaupt, haben zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt einen Short-Anteil von mehr als 50 %. Bis vor kurzem wurden nur wenige Male - 2007 und 2008 - ein Short Interest von mehr als 90 % beobachtet. Betrachtet man die Shorts als Prozentsatz der im Umlauf befindlichen Aktien, so ist GME die einzige Aktie, bei der die Mitarbeiter der SEC im Januar 2021 mehr Short Interest als ausstehende Aktien festgestellt haben. [Investopedia What Short Interest Tells Us] Short Squeezes treten tendenziell häufiger bei Aktien mit geringerer Marktkapitalisierung auf, die einen sehr geringen Streubesitz (Angebot) haben, aber auch Large Caps sind gegen diese Situation nicht immun. Der "Sneeze" im Januar 2021 [SEC.gov Staff Report on Equity and Options Market Structure] Einige institutionelle Konten hatten vor Januar 2021 ein erhebliches Short-Interest in GME. Das GME Short-Interest (in Prozent des Streubesitzes) erreichte im Januar 2021 122,97 % und übertraf damit andere Meme-Aktien wie Dillard's, Inc. (Symbol: DDS) (77,3%), Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. (Symbol: BBBY) (66,02%), National Beverage Corp. (Symbol: FIZZ) (62,59%), Koss Corp. (Symbol: KOSS) (0,92%), Naked Brand Group, Ltd. (Symbol: NAKD) (7,3%), und Popcorn Entertainment Holdings Inc. (Symbol: Popcorn) (11,4%). [FINRA NYSE:GME 2/9/202] FINRA meldete für GameStop ein Short-Interesse von 226 % am 09.02.2021, [2021 Financial Stability Oversight Council Annual Report] - Januar 2021 - 1% aller NSCC-Mitglieder hatten einen Margin Call wegen eines idiosynkratischen Risikos in einer bestimmten Aktie - GameStop
[Bloomberg Markets and Finance] "Wenn es zu einem Short Squeeze kommt, kann die Aktie praktisch ins Unendliche steigen, weil die Short-Positionen die Aktie leihen müssen, und sobald es keine Aktien mehr zu leihen gibt, können sie nicht liefern. Also muss der Broker die Shorts zu jedem Preis zurückkaufen. Es gibt also keine Lösung für dieses Problem, es sei denn, die Shorts werden liquidiert." - Thomas Peterffy, Milliardär, Gründer und Vorsitzender von IBKR Warum ist das Short-Interest in GameStop nach Januar 2021 gesunken? GME Short-Interest von 2007 - 2021 [SEC.gov Staff Report on Equity and Options Market Structure] Als der Wert von GME stieg, wurden die Kursänderungen von XRT zunehmend von denen von GME beeinflusst. Das Shorten von XRT könnte eine indirekte, wenn auch unvollkommene Möglichkeit zum Shorten von GME gewesen sein. Tatsächlich beobachteten die Mitarbeiter der SEC am 27. Januar einen starken Anstieg der Nettorücknahmen von fast 6 Millionen XRT-Aktien, was mit Shorting in Zusammenhang stehen könnte. Diese Rücknahmeaktivitäten wurden fast ausschließlich von ETF-Market-Making-Firmen getätigt. Es war daher wahrscheinlich das Ergebnis von Nettoverkäufen von XRT durch Marktteilnehmer gegen Market Maker (z. B. Market Maker, die von Anlegern kaufen, die Shorting tätigen), wobei die Market Maker diese Käufe nicht gegeneinander aufrechneten, sondern die XRT-Anteile anschließend vom ETF-Sponsor gegen Anteile der zugrunde liegenden Aktien zurücknahmen. Ein solches Shoting hätte dazu führen können, dass XRT je nach Marktdynamik mit einem Aufschlag oder einem Abschlag gegenüber seinem Nettoinventarwert (NAV) gehandelt worden wäre. Obwohl ein Short Squeeze nicht der Hauptauslöser der Ereignisse zu sein scheint und ein Gamma Squeeze weniger wahrscheinlich ist, verdeutlicht dieser Vorfall die Rolle und die potenziellen Auswirkungen von Shorting und Short Covering. Die Rolle der Market Maker [SEC.gov Staff Report on Equity and Options Market Structure] Die überwiegende Mehrheit der GME-Aktiengeschäfte, die im Januar 2021 außerbörslich ausgeführt wurden, wurden internalisiert (ca. 80 %) und nicht über ATSs abgewickelt. Der Markt für die Internalisierung von GME war stark konzentriert, wobei 88 % des internalisierten Dollar-Volumens im Januar von nur drei Großhändlern abgewickelt wurden. Auf Citadel Securities entfielen im Laufe des Monats fast 50 % des internalisierten Dollar Volumens, wobei zweimal sogar 55 % des täglichen internalisierten Dollar Volumens erreicht wurden. Auf Virtu Americas entfielen im Januar rund 26 % des internalisierten Volumens. Während der prozentuale Anteil des internalisierten GME-Handels in der letzten Januarwoche zurückging, waren die absoluten Volumina, die von internalisierenden Firmen an den Tagen mit dem intensivsten Handel in diesem Zeitraum ausgeführt wurden, in einigen Fällen um eine Größenordnung größer als das, was zuvor für diese Firmen typisch war. Beispielsweise internalisierte Citadel im Dezember 2020 GME-Aktien im Wert von durchschnittlich knapp 37 Mio. USD pro Tag. Am 27. Januar internalisierte Citadel GME-Aktien im Wert von fast 4,2 Mrd. USD. In ähnlicher Weise internalisierte Virtu im Dezember 2020 GME-Aktien im Wert von durchschnittlich 23,4 Mio. USD pro Tag und am 26. Januar GME-Aktien im Wert von 2,2 Mrd. USD. Am 29. Januar internalisierte Citadel GME-Aktien im Wert von ca. 2,2 Mrd. USD und Virtu GME-Aktien im Wert von ca. 1,4 Mrd. USD. SEC Schlussfolgerungen [SEC.gov Staff Report on Equity and Options Market Structure] https://preview.redd.it/govxwnazk7791.png?width=780&format=png&auto=webp&s=c59eaf5dbe76b9e651cb819055392e9642d14269 Abbildung 6 zeigt, dass der Anstieg des GME-Aktienkurses mit Käufen derjenigen zusammenfiel, die Short-Positionen hielten. Es zeigt jedoch auch, dass diese Käufe nur einen kleinen Teil des gesamten Kaufvolumens ausmachten und dass die GME-Aktienkurse auch dann noch hoch waren, als die direkten Auswirkungen der Deckung von Short-Positionen bereits abgeklungen waren. Die zugrunde liegende Motivation dieses Kaufvolumens lässt sich nicht feststellen; vielleicht war es der Wunsch, einen Short Squeeze aufrechtzuerhalten. Unabhängig davon, ob es der Wunsch war, die Short Seller zu verdrängen und so von dem daraus resultierenden Kursanstieg zu profitieren, oder der Glaube an die Fundamentaldaten von GameStop - es war die positive Stimmung und nicht das buying-to-cover, was den wochenlangen Kursanstieg der GameStop-Aktie aufrechterhielt. XRT Kurs und Short-Interest ORTEX ARCA:XRT NSCC Finanzielle Stabilität (Clearingstelle) [NSCC 2021 Financial Stability Oversight Council Annual Report] Das maximale Backtesting-Defizit bzw. der Margin-Bruch bei den FICC-Clearingdiensten der DTCC ging in den zwölf Monaten bis zum 31. März 2021 zurück, da die im ersten Quartal 2020 beobachtete Marktvolatilität abnahm (Abbildung 3.6.1.2). Im Gegensatz dazu meldete die NSCC am 22. Januar 2021 ein Backtesting-Defizit in Höhe von 1,1 Mrd. USD, das größte seit Beginn der öffentlichen Bekanntgabe im dritten Quartal 2015. In ihrer vierteljährlichen Offenlegung der Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures (PFMI) führte die NSCC den Backtesting-Mangel hauptsächlich auf ein einziges Wertpapier zurück, das ein idiosynkratisches Risiko aufwies. Total Return Swaps [WSJ - What Is a Total Return Swap and How Did Archegos Capital Use It?] Wie konnte Archegos damit durchkommen, dass es seine Positionen nicht offenlegte? Archegos hat nach Angaben von Personen, die mit dem Fonds vertraut sind, schätzungsweise 10 Mrd. USD an eigenem Geld verwaltet. Die gesamten Positionen, die aufgelöst wurden, beliefen sich auf fast 30 Mrd. USD dank der Hebelwirkung, die Archegos von den Banken erhielt. [Social Science Research Network - Total Return Meltdown: The Case for Treating Total Return Swaps as Disguised Secured Transactions] Diese Verluste wurden durch die einzigartigen Merkmale von Total Return Swaps und die Gründung von Archegos als Family Office ermöglicht, die es Archegos erlaubten, Handelsvorschriften und Meldepflichten zu umgehen. Archegos erwarb im Wesentlichen das wirtschaftliche Eigentum an großen Mengen von Aktien, insbesondere ViacomCBS Inc. und Discovery Inc. auf Kredit. Nach der Verordnung T des Federal Reserve Board können bis zu 50 % des Kaufpreises von Wertpapieren auf Marge geliehen werden. Um diese Vorschriften zu umgehen, schloss Archegos jedoch stattdessen Total Return Swaps mit den Banken ab, bei denen die Bank der eigentliche Eigentümer der Aktien ist, Archegos jedoch das Verlustrisiko trägt, falls der Aktienkurs fällt, und die Gewinne erhält, falls die Aktien steigen oder eine Ausschüttung erfolgen sollte. [CNBC TV Explained: Why regulators failed to spot the ticking time bomb at Archegos] Berichten von Bloomberg und dem Wall Street Journal zufolge baute Archegos diese Positionen durch ein Derivat namens Total Return Swaps auf. Laut diesem Forbes-Bericht sind Family Offices verpflichtet, Aktien- und Derivatpositionen von mehr als 100 Millionen Dollar in den 13-F-Filings auf der EDGAR-Website der Securities Exchange Commission anzugeben. Swaps sind jedoch von den 13-F-Filings ausgeschlossen. Swap-Berichterstattung bis Oktober 2023 aufgeschoben [CFTC Staff Provides Temporary No Action Relief from Certain Financial Reporting Requirements to Bank Swap Dealers] Die Market Participants Division der Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) hat heute ein zeitlich begrenztes No-Action-Letter bezüglich der Kapital- und Finanzberichterstattungspflichten für Swap Dealer (SDs) herausgegeben, die den Kapitalanforderungen einer Aufsichtsbehörde (Bank SDs) gemäß den SD-Finanzberichterstattungsregeln der CFTC unterliegen. Das Schreiben geht auf einen gemeinsamen Antrag der Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association und der International Swaps and Derivatives Association im Namen ihrer SD-Mitglieder zurück, die ansonsten bis zum 6. Oktober 2021 die neuen Kapital- und Finanzberichterstattungsvorschriften der CFTC erfüllen müssten. Die durch das Schreiben gewährte Erleichterung würde am 6. Oktober 2023 auslaufen oder mit der Verabschiedung überarbeiteter Finanzberichts- und Meldeanforderungen durch die CFTC, je nachdem, was früher eintritt.

[Bloomberg Fed Facility Tops $2 Trillion as Investors Scramble to Park Cash] Der Geldbetrag, der bei einer wichtigen Fazilität der US-Notenbank geparkt ist, kletterte auf ein weiteres Allzeithoch und übertraf zum ersten Mal die 2-Billionen-Dollar-Marke, da die Anleger darum kämpften, Orte zu finden, an denen sie ihr Geld kurzfristig anlegen konnten.

Risiko vs. Ertrag: Risiken einer Investition in einen Short Squeeze [Investopedia Short Squeeze Definition] Contrarian-Investoren können Aktien mit hohem Short-Interest kaufen, um das Potenzial für einen Short Squeeze zu nutzen. Ein schneller Anstieg des Aktienkurses ist attraktiv, aber nicht ohne Risiken. Die Aktie kann aus gutem Grund stark geshortet sein, z. B. wegen schlechten Zukunftsaussichten.

Beta ist ein Maß für die Volatilität einer Aktie im Verhältnis zum Gesamtmarkt. Definitionsgemäß hat der Markt, z. B. der S&P 500 Index, ein Beta von 1,0 und die einzelnen Aktien werden danach eingestuft, wie stark sie vom Markt abweichen. Negatives Beta: Ein Beta von weniger als 0, was auf ein umgekehrtes Verhältnis zum Markt hinweisen würde, ist möglich, aber höchst unwahrscheinlich. Einige Anleger argumentieren, dass Gold und Goldaktien ein negatives Beta haben sollten, da sie sich tendenziell besser entwickeln, wenn der Aktienmarkt sinkt. Utilization Rate https://preview.redd.it/rmp1kdhpt7791.png?width=1663&format=png&auto=webp&s=595ed195fd3ecc663434a81e2e03d921ee7d15bf [Seeking Alpha Stocks with the largest increase in utilization rate] Die Auslastungsrate ist die Anzahl der geliehenen Aktien geteilt durch die Anzahl der Aktien, die institutionelle Anleger bereit sind, zu verleihen. Eine höhere Rate zeigt an, dass ein größerer Teil des Aktienangebots auf dem Wertpapierleihmarkt ausgeliehen wird. Eine höhere Auslastungsrate erhöht auch die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass Short Seller mit einem Rückkauf konfrontiert werden, wenn Anleger ihre geliehenen Aktien zurückrufen. Gemeldetes Short-Interest [ORTEX NYSE:GME] Das an der Börse gemeldete Short-Interesse beträgt bis zu 24% des Streubesitzes und das von ORTEX geschätzte Short-Interesse beträgt bis zu 28%. [Investopedia Short Squeeze Definition] Anfang 2020 war Tesla die am meisten geshortete Aktie an den US-Börsen, mit mehr als 18 % der ausstehenden Aktien in Short-Positionen. Von Ende 2019 bis Anfang 2020 stieg die Tesla-Aktie um 400 %. Aktiensplit Dividende [Investopedia GameStop (GME) Flags Stock Split, Shares Surge] GameStop plant, die Zustimmung der Aktionäre für einen Aktiensplit in Form einer Dividende einzuholen. Im Falle einer Genehmigung würde der Aktiensplit die Anzahl der GameStop-Stammaktien der Klasse A von 300 Millionen auf 1 Milliarde erhöhen. Die Aktionäre von GameStop stimmten am 02. Juni 2022 der Änderung zu, mit der die Anzahl der genehmigten Stammaktien der Klasse A [die "Stammaktien"] auf 1.000.000.000 erhöht wird. [Investopedia Are Investors Short a Dividend-Paying Stock Entitled to the Dividend?] Aktionäre von Unternehmen, die zum Stichtag eine Dividende zahlen, haben das Recht, erklärte Dividenden zu erhalten. Wenn man jedoch eine dividendenzahlende Aktie geshortet habt, dann ist man nicht zum Erhalt der Dividende berechtigt und muss sie stattdessen an den Verleiher der geliehenen Aktien zahlen. Direkte Registrierung von Aktien [SEC Holding Your Securities Get the Facts] Was ist eine direkte Registrierung im Gegensatz zu einer Registrierung auf den Straßennamen? Man kann seine Wertpapiere auf den Straßennamen registrieren lassen und auf seinem Konto bei seinem Broker-Dealer halten. Viele Brokerfirmen tragen die Wertpapiere automatisch auf den Straßennamen ein, es sei denn, man erteilt ihnen ausdrückliche anders lautende Anweisungen. Bei der Registrierung auf den Straßennamen führt deine Firma Aufzeichnungen, die einen als den tatsächlichen oder "wirtschaftlichen" Eigentümer ausweisen, aber man wird nicht direkt in den Büchern des Emittenten aufgeführt. Stattdessen wird das Brokerunternehmen (oder ein anderer Beauftragter) in den Büchern des Emittenten als Eigentümer aufgeführt. Was macht DRS?

Bill Hwang has been arrested. He managed to leverage up positions in half a dozen big US stocks to around $35bn gross exposure. That's a lot. He ended up owning well over half of ViacomCBS, a big US broadcaster, with something approaching 700mn subscribers in the recent past,
according to Wikipedia). Anyway, he got very rich on paper, by buying a lot of stock and watching the price go up, and then got very poor, as the stock price collapsed.
As Matt Levine points out, it's not obvious why this was criminal. He is accused of 'using Archegos as an “instrument of market manipulation and fraud” with “far-reaching consequences for other participants in the United States securities markets”,' but given that he ended up poorer, and no investors were harmed in the exercise of his unsuccessful trading, it's not obvious that he had any criminal intent.
He was a bad trader, and lost a lot of money, for himself and for the banks that lent him money, but it's not a crime to borrow money from a bank and fail to pay it back. To lie to the bank about what the money is for might be, but from what I can tell, he didn't do this. He borrowed from a lot of banks to invest in the same stocks. Each bank knew how much stock he was buying using its money. He just failed to mention that he was running the same sort of trading using loans from other banks. The cumulative effect was to give him huge holdings in some stocks, but these were not enough to make the prices go up forever. If they had been, Archegos would have remained as unknown as it was before it went bankrupt and Bill Hwang would be a very wealthy guy.
Matt Levine's point is that Hwang is not a 'dope' and that if he wanted to execute a fraud, he had plenty of opportunity to collect a lot of the money from these loans, move it offshore, and retire to the sunset in somewhere like Grand Cayman or Lebanon. One of what Somerset Maughan called "sunny places for shady people."
Well, it's interesting, but I feel that it's not remotely the scale of fraud that fElon M*sk engages in on an almost weekly basis. I'd better be careful what I say, because I understand that this guy is known to be highly litigious, while I am highly indigent.
Tight or loose?
The Chicago Fed has an indicator of financial conditions. It goes back a long time. It shows that conditions now are extremely loose compared to the early 1980's. J Powell is no Paul Volker.

The Principal Agent problem
Roger Lowenstein
points out that senior management in Goldman Sachs are corrupt. I don't think he uses the word. He just points out that they have structured a compensation scheme that enriches senior management for deploying shareholders' capital. It just points out that when a firm ceases to be owned by its principals, it's almost impossible to design an agency agreement which is capable of standing up to the incentives facing the agents who now have the principal's money.
I don't think that GS is particularly reprehensible, it's just more obvious because the firm was until relatively recently a real partnership.
Lowenstein is a great author. I think that Substack is a new venture for him. I wish him well. Disclaimer: I met his uncle, many years ago.
Wrap
Equity markets plunged at the end of the week. The NDX was down nearly 4.5%. The market is very volatile, though, and actually the close was no lower than the low of the 26th, mid week. Commodities were all over the place: WTI crude was down 1.2%, Brent was up 1.7%. Bonds were still behaving as though we are in a risk-off regime: the 10Y Treasury yield was up 10bp to 2.92%.
Will this result in a generalized and sustained market crash? Inflation will drive down labour costs, which might increase demand for capital. It seems that volatility is growing all the time, although the VIX, measuring implied volatility, seems still quite moderate.
