I will be 70 years old and I still will never have gotten over the time the Mythbusters used a rocket powered steel wall to - and I use this word as literally as possible - vaporize an entire car into red mist
If you haven’t seen this episode of Mythbusters I feel so bad for you because “What car?” remains to this day as a defining moment of my adolescence and my entire life
That was a near-religious experience
I made a gif of it for those of you who cant watch the video in your country. Or if you know you just want to stare at it mesmerized like me
Oh wow they sure did vaporise that car into red mist
“The really dangerous American fascist… is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power… They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective, toward which all their deceit is directed, is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.“
~quoted in the New York Times, April 9, 1944
― Henry A. Wallace, 33rd Vice President of the U.S.A.
“With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public.”
Quoted by Thom Hartmann in Fascists Compete To Own America
“The Democrats don’t matter. The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit.”
― Steve Bannon (Fascist, Trump Campaign Manager 2016, Breitbart publisher)
