Love this one. Thanks for posting.

Have you used it? I’m relearning the ol’ Gaeilge but still very rusty.

Meningitis. Symptoms here. The light sensitivity and sore neck are early warning ones. By the time the dark blotches / rash show up on your skin you’re dealing with nasty sepsis.

It nearly killed my sister. Weeks in ICU.

Almost 30 years later she still looses her balance on any kind of incline or when tired.

Took me three attempts to watch this movie. Absolutely superb.

Must give that another watch. Absolutely incredible flick.

Edit: actually just ordered the Bluray. Less than a tenner. Can’t wait.

One of his buttons is a QR code.

He was inner circle but wasn’t nearly as public facing until half way through the war then did a massive and very successful rationalisation on their war machine that was too late. The allies were massively out producing them by then and there was no catching up. Not sure how much design work he did though.

Goebbels was the public mouthpiece from the offset.

Amen. It’s time to decouple if he goes that far.

The idea of a kinetic war with Europeans is horribly unpopular in the US so this is him scrambling.

He was an absolute master of propaganda. The best / worst we’ve ever seen to the best of my knowledge. Evil genius doesn’t even scratch the surface.

All the way through the 1920’s and 30’s he masterfully moved public opinion in Germany, shutting down the free press, hosting the Olympics while convincing the West that Germany just wanted peace, nudging the populous towards war, the works.

Edit: thankfully for us all he recorded it in diaries that survived. He was a true believer. Hitler would never have achieved what he did without Goebbels. Others played pivotal roles but fuck me that pair were something.

Those Project Zero folks are phenomenal.

Just grabbed the android app.

Is there a way to turn off subtitles? They have been forced on all three things I’ve watched so far. It’s very annoying.

Ah I’m sure he’s considering it and the planning is a given. I’m glad the bulk of Americans have some sense in this matter at least.

purrrrrr

Thanks. They’re comforting numbers.

Stalin 1939 vibes.

There’s talk of sending the EU rapid reaction force. It’s only 5000 troops but they’re the good shit.

That man is a true modern American hero. Bet he’s the absolute CRAIC for a night out.

unless you’re just being actively partisan.

Actively propagandised.

Ah he’s only suspended and a union member. I heard that the suspension will likely be short (3 days was the figure someone in the same union said on the other site). I’m sure we’ll hear all about it if he is actually fired.

Mad props to him for seeing his opportunity, realising it was once in a lifetime and grabbing it with both hands.
