The other day I went to see the new film by those geniuses that once transformed our whole world with four simple words about the damnable lack of silverware around here, and I watched in horror as they once again showed me that everything is not as it seemed. I mean, dude, it's like they totally have some kind of esoteric or gnarley gnosticism or penetrating insight into the true nature of the conspiracies that continually engulf us, man! And, like, the dialogue was cool too.
Where, indeed, would we be without the Wachowski brothers? They have shown us that the democracy we think we live in is dead, and we're really in a fascist state. I mean, a government and media using fear to lead its people blindly into wars and fascist politics?? A president being elected not on basis of popularity or intelligence or even good looks, but solely on basis of fear?? Well, I never would have thought that were possible! This movie has made me radically question everything I thought I knew about America. You know. Except for the fact that there was a weird-looking tower on Capitol Hill. We all know that was just there to look really friggin' cool when the clockface exploded and the train went crashing into the White House for a big finish.
I must repeat, I have been compelled to question everything I once thought I knew about this country. The images the Wachowski brothers used were chilling in their double-edged allegory of current events. The black bags placed over people, making them look just like those Muslim Iraqi prisoners and people being herded away brutally for offenses like owning a Koran. The effect was haunting. It was like, Dude...I think I've seen that before... But I thought it was all fake. Muslim people being abused in prison camps with black sacks on their heads? What? Is this for real??
Apparently, it is for real. And the veracity of it doesn't stop there! I mean, who would have thought they could draw so many interesting comparisons to Nazis? The naked bodies heaped up in that camp. The symbol for the fascist government, that kinda looks swastika-ish, but I think I heard somewhere it's actually a Greek Orthodox cross---so wait, what is that saying? That When fascism comes to America it will come draped in a flag and carrying a cross---just like that Sinclair Lewis guy said!!! DUDE!! So now we're dealing with a religious critique too. It's mind-blowing, and maybe it even makes the evil bishop guy less of a gross caricature! In which case, we haven't seen as effective a criticism of the church since that priest with the dirty mouth in Million Dollar Baby! Wachowskis, you have saved us from religious intolerance yet again.
And that's not all our beloved Matrix Makers have done for us. Finally, they have pointed the finger at whom it always should have been pointed to all along! I'm talking about 9/11 here. We've seen that it wasn't Iraq's fault, it wasn't Afganistan's fault....and now it's all clear: IT WAS BUSH'S FAULT. That's right! I mean, now that I've seen this movie, it all makes sense---George W. Bush used it to go to war so that he could go from being the guy who stole the presidency to our savior. Then he began a political takeover akin to dictatorship...and you know the rest. Now, you all may be wondering where the movie actually says that. Let me illustrate for you. Remember when the Chief Inspector guy finds out that 100,000 people have been the victim of a terrible biological warfare attack staged by the government to put fear in the hearts of its own citizens, making its own people the martyrs for its leader to rise up as a savior in the next round of elections? Think about it. How many people were killed in the World Trade Center? About 3,000. Okay. So not 100,000. But let me ask you this: how many civilians have died in Operation Iraqi Freedom? 100,000. So it's like, 3,000 deaths was bad enough! But George W. Bush went crazy and killed 100,000 other people just to make his point---and what did we do? We reelected him! We finalized the Bush Dynasty and let him rule us like a dictator for four more years!!
Now, you may be asking, does this movie actually make the connection to George W. Bush, and does it actually make the assumption that he had anything to do with 9/11? Well, I'd say that's not the point. It's a movie for chrissake---let's not get all nitpicky and overobsessive here!! The point is, we saw in this movie FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER how easy it would be for a president ( or Chancellor, whichever term you prefer) to plot an attack on our country, and that it would be especially easy to throw us into a war we don't need for the sake of his own ass, and that it's effective especially if the media covers everything up, or else he can just refuse to tell them the truth!
So there it is! Bush is...bad! I don't know why. But there it is, all the same! He lied to the American people about Iraq having to do with 9/11. So that means he musta done it. Shame on him! He sacrificed his own people and other people for his own fuckin political popularity! And if you all don't see it, look closer. This movie will blow your mind.... It will challenge everything you know.....
And finally, didn't anybody get the Bush resemblance in the Chancellor's face? He totally looks like Bush! Maybe he is Bush! Maybe it's Bush's secret evil twin that they all say looks a little like John Hurt. That clinches it! I'm getting out of this country and away from all these evil Bush lookalikes. I think maybe I'll move to England!!!
