Things that conspiracy theorists should appreciate are attacked by the conspiratorial powers that be.

Herbert Marcuse wrote One-Dimensional Man yet is attacked as a cultural marxist. Erich Fromm went toe to toe with Mike Wallace and pretty much wrote about freedom in terms of meta. Other Frankfurt School members spoke of the culture industry. Again, these are people one might imagine a conspiracy theorist would respect and be grateful for having produced real true philosophy to save society and planet.

Eisenhower is praised for warning against the military. Smedley Butler is spoken of in glowing terms despite the fact that he might have been the original Alex Jones/Pieczenik styled psyop. William Cooper is put on a pedestal. My point is that conspiracy is to be viewed as right wing. It's why conspiracy seems to be about Donald Trump lovers. I don't know where the left wingers fit into the psyop. Maybe we aren't meant to exist. The fake left are to be seen as the edgy save the planet people, so how could a real true left be allowed? It's the difference perhaps between a Bernie with Jill Stein and Ajamu Baraka. The latter are not politically viable within the state-sponsored psyop. Bernie becomes the fake #1 agitator and revolution leader. It's just coincidence he caved in for H. and the Russian hoax. It's spun as water under the bridge. God bless John McCain and Adrian Lamo, etc..

Or we are seen as potential lone wolves. I am a mysterious wild card in this topic because I actually did study in a Sociology dept. which heavily leaned towards Frankfurt School methodology. My professors were Irish citizens. They are not supposed to exist within American medium, yet here they've been included.

I'm gonna turn on some Jim Sullivan and his U.F.O. album.

Enlightenment is lonely and painful in terms of experiencing the intersection between state and social media.

I'm starting to accept Wrecking Crew for what it was. It actually gives Sullivan a fighting chance for gaining a bit more than cult status. I wonder if I used to have this album. It sounds so familiar. That must be the Wrecking Crew effect. And then the other part is Jim's voice evokes James Taylor, Lightfoot and others as previously discussed. The harmonies and imagery are outstanding. Jerome and the whole album could have been a great movie soundtrack. I'm not saying Wrecking Crew weren't true musicians but they found a commercial schtick and generated big money to reproduce other people's creativity. There's something sleazy about what they did, imho.

The voices in the crowd were wondering if Sullivan was good enough to become famous? Jim knew that fame was a hoax. He probably inspired me to say we've been left with nowhere to go. I'll probably start listening more to Zappa.

Wrecking Crew and Led Zeppelin make it impossible to understand who were the originals and who were the cheaters.

Jim should have kept his shite together. He'd be famous by now and still alive. But he never wanted to be famous, only happy. The sadness in his voice is a bit tough to handle at times. In that regard he reminds me of Cobain.

Whistle Stop is still my favourite, then probably Jerome and U.F.O..

"Best of Frank Zappa"

It's one guy's opinion. He put together the playlist The first song kind of scared me. It sounded like Billy Joel. Then it got funky and original sounding. But then... Zappa seems to take a lot of effort to listen to. He is exhausting but I will give this a chance.
