John Zmirak and Eric Discuss E. Michael Jones' Antisemitism
"Years ago, I read some of E Michael Jones's books. And again, this is what Nick Fuentes is kind of following, right? I read some of his books and he wrote one called degenerate moderns. It was brilliant. He wrote another one about architecture and another one, I forget. But brilliant stuff, right? And so I visited him in his home and I didn't see the anti semitic side of him until right around that time, a friend of mine, doctor Jeffrey sat in over, wrote a brilliant book, he is a genius psychiatrist, he has a degree in quantum physics. One of the smartest people I know, not a Christian, but he wrote an amazing book from the point of view of a psychiatrist who had dealt with people struggling with same sex attraction. And it really an amazing, amazing book, sat in over his last name. And so I interviewed him and reviewed it ostensibly for E Michael Jones magazine. He hardly printed anything of what I wrote. He cut almost everything. And then he wrote a review that was effectively anti semitic. And I will never, ever, ever forget it. I read it and I thought, this, this can be, this is the whole, the whole review of this great book, which was homosexuality and the politics of truth by Jeff sat in over hinged on really an anti semitic idea. And that's when I realized 27 years ago, uh oh, I don't know that I can spend any more time. You're telling me Nick Fuentes who just had dinner with the president is following you, Michael. Right. That's right. And I'll just explain briefly to your readers. Michael Jones is a theological Jew hater. He doesn't hate them racially. He doesn't believe in Nazi crackpot racialism. He believes that any one of the Jewish people who does not accept Jesus is the moral equivalent of the sadducees and that he takes literally the statement, let their blood be upon us and upon our children. He channels the old old anti semitism of some of the church fathers and some people in the Middle Ages. He takes all that, not as a historical tragedy and abuse, but as an authoritative part of the Christian tradition. And he describes the Jews who did not follow Jesus as the synagogue of Satan and the mystical body of Antichrist. That has existed ever since the death of our lord. And as a sort of satanic counter church. And so he blames Jews for pornography, even though the Marquis de Sade was not Jewish. He blames them for abortion. Margaret Sanger was not Jewish. He manages to act as if the Jewish people by not accepting Jesus became Antichrist. And

"Let's keep going. Well, so we are talking about my piece at stream dot org on how Donald Trump is like Martin Luther King in being a leader of a huge segment of American people that have been neglected and mistreated by the government by the system and that he is hated the way Martin Luther King was hated because powerful interests hold his supporters in contempt. They are bigoted just as white races were bigoted. They're bigoted against people in the who live in the country, people who work blue collar jobs, people who want to carry guns and people who want to practice traditional Christianity, and they have made up a slur. I hate term to use to justify dehumanizing marginalizing and politically persecuting us. And that term is Christian nationalist. And if you push them, if you actually insist demand that they define the terms, if you unpack Christian nationalists, you find get describes virtually every president of the United States of America, including Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln who warned Orthodox Christians. Probably the only exceptions to the Christian net to being a Christian nationalist would have been Woodrow Wilson, who was a pantheist globalist lunatic. And then Jimmy Carter, Jimmy Carter is the first president, apart from Woodrow Wilson, who would not fit the Christian nationals definition, because Christian nationalist means you want to focus on America first rather than a globalist utopia or a tribalist racialist enclave, so the confederates in that sense were tribalists. He want to focus on America as a nation. And you want Christian moral values as found in the natural law written in the human heart. And often transcribed in the Bible, but fundamentally found rationally as the declaration said nature and nature's God. By reflecting reason rational morality based on there being a God at him showing us his works in his will in his creation, the book of creation. You want that to infuse the public square instead of the morality of the Marquis de Sade or Karl Marx or the church of Satan or Adolf Hitler, something some moral code has to pervade the public square. You have to somebody's got to be in charge. If it's not the natural law that was used at the Nuremberg trials to justify hanging the Nazis, the natural law which said that slavery and segregation were wrong. If it's not the natural law, then it will be the darwinism of Adolf Hitler, the Marxism of Josef Stalin. The hedonistic depravity of the Marquis de Sade and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Oh yeah, when we remind people, Ruth Bader Ginsburg's arguments for abortion were taken from the Marquis de Sade's book philosophy in the bedroom. Now, I don't think she read it directly. She got it from Simone de beauvoir, who stole it from facade. But again, that's another article of love at the dot org. Yeah. You know, I go around the country and often speak to conservatives and Christians and ask them, are you familiar with the stream dot org? They go, no, what's that? That to me is an example of the problem that we're in, is that distributing the truth, getting our voices heard. We know that the left has monopoly, but we also know that the mushy middle who works with the left, whether it's Fox, or whoever it is, they also, they kind of own the real estate, and it's hard for us to get our voices out there. So I want to say to my audience, again and again and again and again, we need your help, folks. We need your help getting these videos out, maybe listen as a podcast, sharing it with people. Please share John's articles on social media. Please retweet. Don't like things. Retweet them, share them. Do what you can because I'm astonished when I know how much good is happening and how few people know about it. We need to re-educate Americans who are open minded as to who this nation is, as to what natural law is, as to where these ideas come from, where they have led. We need to do that. We try to do that on this program. But we actually need your help. If I could offer a bonus, if you know any self righteous thin skinned never trumper Christians, send them my article about Trump being like Martin Luther King, you will be shaving months off their lives and they will do less damage in the world. I promise. I tell you, it is so it's just amazing. There are people out there that are just, they're unhinged. And you know, look, we're supposed to pray for our enemies. It doesn't mean we're pray for their deathbed. John stop. Come on. What I'm trying to say is we're not supposed to work with our enemies to work against God, but we're supposed to pray for them and hope that they can find a moment of repentance that somehow God would be able to reach them and that they would understand, look, I say this because unlike John, I was once firmly in that camp. I was once just drifting along, I know that I'm still guilty of this today, if given the opportunity, but God in his mercy reached me in his mercy. I just want to be clear in his mercy he reached me and there are people out there folks do your part, pray for them, share anything that you can, there's a lot that every single, one of us can do. Before we go to the break folks, I'm obliged to remind you, we're doing a fundraiser with food for the poor. There are people suffering in the Ukraine because of the malfeasance of this horrible, horrible pseudo administration, the people that are suffering, they don't know they don't need to know about the politics, but they need to know that there are people out there in the name of God trying to help them to feed their kids..

"I want to remind people and I've written about this. It's streamed out art. The first thinker since like 8300 when Rome converted to Christianity. The first think to suggest that abortion was justified. Was the Marquis de Sade? And his arguments in the midst of all his pornographic fantasies about child molesting and incest and torture and murder. Which he wrote in prison when he was in prison for torturing prostitutes. His reflections on this were simply as Cruz this. Nature doesn't even want you to reproduce. Now, that's funny. You could have fooled me biology seems to want people to reproduce. Certainly, that's what Darwin said. We live in order to reproduce ourselves, but decide said, no, nature doesn't want us to reproduce. We have the absolute rights of anything that comes out of our body. You fetuses like it's like a turd or a fingernail clippings or menstrual blood. It's your, it's your product. You can do whatever you want with it. That and it's important that women be able to do that so that they can walk away from sex the way men can walk away from sex. So in order to make women equal the men equally promiscuous, we have to legalize abortion and unborn babies are no more than poop. Those are the marquee decides, grand total of two arguments. Simone de beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre picked up those arguments and popularized them and Ruth Bader Ginsburg was citing them in her legal opinions. The only arguments for abortion really are those of the Marquis itself. Okay, again, you're not going to hear this stuff. Other places, I don't know why. I mean, I sort of know why, but please folks share these things. Share these videos. Obviously, if you have my newsletter, if you get my newsletter every week, we send out these videos. But this is vital that we understand the rudiments of this situation. These are the rudiments of the situation that there is no actual argument. There never was. And that you have to go to somebody like Marquis de Sade. And again, John, you've shared this on the program. Marquis thought it was one of the most evil human beings who've ever existed. The idea that some people think like, oh, it's sort of sexy. Ladies and gentlemen, it is as evil as anything you have ever seen. We're talking about the torture and killing of children. Innocent people, I mean, things that I wouldn't even talk about on this program, frankly. When you look into it, it's way more horrifying. It's serial killer stuff. It's torn for serial killers. Precisely, precisely. The origin of the pro choice position. And now that the legal fiction that the rube Bader Goldberg constructions of Kim crack duct tape and gorilla glue pasted together garbage of roe V wade and Planned Parenthood V Casey. Alito just you just looked at it like an Italian stonemason that said, what is this crap? And smashed it. Nobody is even trying to glue that crap back together. They're just saying, okay, we're going to smash your face. We're going to burn your churches. To which the answer is, try it. See what happens. If the police won't protect us, we need a thousand or 10,000 Kyle rittenhouse's to protect our churches and our pro life pregnancy centers. It may be that the Biden administration just says, we're not going to protect you because we don't agree with you and you live in un America. This is post America. This is a narco tyranny. We do whatever we want. We're the woke fascists deal with it. And in which case, we all have to use force ourselves. And I'm ready to do that. My slogan for Christians is fight fire with napalm. I mean, look, there are a lot of people that they don't, they just can't fathom that we are where we are. And it's why I feel a compulsion to talk about it because I think people need to understand if you don't know where we are in this culture right now. If you don't stand up and push back against it, you're part of the problem, folks. I want to be very blunt. There are many pastors that will never speak about these things. They could be nice people. They could be good people. They don't want to worship the devil. They don't believe in abortion, but they are participating in evil. And I mean, we know this, the famous quote, I don't believe Ben hoffer said it, but it's attributed to him silence in the face of evil, is itself evil, not to speak, is to speak, not to act, is to act, God will not hold us guiltless. That is a warning that don't think that you can get out of this by being neutral. If you think you're neutral, you're like Sweden. I'm sorry, you're like Switzerland in World War II. You are a coward. You are guilty as sin. If you think that you can be neutral, when babies are being killed and when people like the pregnancy centers that advocate for women try to help women do the right thing, sacrificially, they help them..

"Waiting for the knife. Okay, we're going to keep John for the rest of the hour at the end of that. How are we will announce the winners, the three grand prize winners folks. If you gave something to CSI, you were on the list. Your name might be mentioned. If you didn't give anything, I'm afraid you can't be a winner. We'll be right back. Everybody. In case you haven't been paying attention. The Biden administration has caused a financial crisis and they have no clue how to fix it. Oil prices have skyrocketed and when oil prices go up, the cost of transportation and shipping spikes leading the prices of goods to rise. And when we're already seeing record inflation that's the last thing we need. Our economy is in trouble and you need to take steps to protect yourself. If all your money is tied up in stocks, bonds and traditional markets, you are vulnerable. Gold is one of the best ways to protect your retirement. No matter what happens, you own your gold. It is real. It is physical. It's always been valuable since the dawn of time. Legacy precious metals is the company I trust for investing in gold. They can help you roll your retirement account into a gold backed IRA where you still own the physical gold. They can also ship gold and precious metals safely and securely to your house called legacy at 8 6 6 5 two 8 1903 or visit them online at legacy p.m. investments dot com. Take a look at my girlfriend folks we're talking to John Z merak at the end of the hour. I will announce the CSI grin price winners in an hour too. We have Tim Barton of wall builders talking about roe V wade. John, I have to ask you, what's happening in America? It's happened gradually. But we're now at a point where the breakdown of the family, what happened in the 1960s, the breakdown of the family has led to this. In other words, it takes time, but now you have the mother of this shooter is a drug addict is a confused person. There is no father. The 18 year old is deeply disturbed. When we were kids in school, you'd say, well, he's a weirdo. You'd be kind of worried about him or something. They're just something they're not socially fitting in. But now, as you said earlier, it's out of bounds to point that out. It's out of balance and say, something's wrong with that person. Now you have to sort of celebrate their madness. You said it's been cross pressure. I don't know what else was going on. But the point is that you're not allowed to talk about that until he kills 19 children. And then when he kills the 19 children, it's the fault of law abiding gun owners in Wyoming. You see, it is part of a program. These antique family laws were put in place for a reason to break down the family, so that everyone is just an isolated individual, an electron whirling around the nucleus federal government. The goal, the goal of the sexual revolution was always more sexual liberty for wealthy good-looking people, more power for the government and the power of the government will be will be wielded by the aristocrats. The song comes from the Marquis de Sade, a perverted aristocrat who came up with the ideology that became the sexual revolution. Popularized by Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de beauvoir, it is now the official religion of the west is the thought of the Marquis de Sade. But I want to get back to evolving and to what it implies. Every time people say, well, we need to do something about guns. What you need to come back at them with is we need to do something about anarcho tyranny about cops not doing their jobs. About cops allowing rioters to take over American cities. Cops arresting Americans who try to defend themselves from mobs of violent thoughts. Remember, we just found out the mcclusky's, the people in St. Louis, lost their law license permanently, the Supreme Court just turned down their appeal. They were deprived of their right to practice law for defending their home against a mob of arsonists. This is the kind of thing that happened in Hitler's Germany. The kind of thing that happens today in Venezuela. It is a nasty, disgusting oligarchy, runs our country, and uses the law to persecute the people who oppose it. Julie Kelly got to read everyone needs to read Julie Kelly over at American greatness. She documented how, you know that guy they call him QAnon shaman Jacob champley. He wore the horns and painted his body on January 6th. He didn't hurt anybody. He didn't threaten anybody. Totally. He walked into a building, talked to the cops, walked back out. He spent 306 days in solitary confinement. He's spending three and a half years in prison. The two members of antifa in New York who are making molotov cocktails and throwing them in cop cars full of cops. They got half the sentence. That Jacob chomps we did. This is a narco tyranny. But it's not just in blue states. Over the weekend, these, this disgusting game palace had a drag show for children. And these sick parents brought their kids to the drag show. Some Christians gathered outside and confronted them as they left. And first of all, it's illegal to bring kids into a place serving alcohol. Second of all, these were men dressed as female prostitutes, propositioning children having children stuff $20 bills down their shirt. I have to hit pause here and say folks, I saw some videotape of this. It is so sick. The only thing you can say is it's demonic. It is some of the sickest stuff I've ever seen. I don't recommend watching it. But the question is, John, Erica, I haven't finished it. This could happen. Eric, I haven't finished the Dallas story. This happens with this drag bar. Christians are out on the sidewalk confronting them. Then you have on Twitter, video from a mob of gay supporters, badgering and harassing and threatening one of the Christians, this black fellow who's just trying to walk away from the event. And the cops come up and confront the Christian and demand why he's causing trouble. He is like a scene out of Soviet Russia. We are that far gone, this is Dallas, Texas, allegedly, with the Republican governor, allegedly in a red state in this red state, the sexual revolutionaries have the police on their side. And why? Because if you go against the sodomite mob, they will have lawyers, they will have boycotts. They will try to destroy your career and take away your pension. Whereas when you kick the Christians in the face, we just think now, unless deserve that, maybe I didn't pray hard enough. I mean, that about sums it up, doesn't it? It's extraordinary. I mean, to me, the takeaway is people, we have to get serious, we have to only elect people who will fight this nonsense. If you elect someone who will not stand against this courageously, you are part of the problem. Meaning people to be in office who don't stand against this, you're part of the problem. Our worthless so called Republican senator John cornyn. If Texas is trying to sell our gun rights to the lowest bidder, why? Because he doesn't want people to say nasty things about a bunch of colors. And he doesn't care about America. He doesn't care about it. He's the definition of a rhino. But there are plenty more, John. There are plenty plugging. We're going to a break. We'll be right back more.

"John's mirror. John, you were just talking about how everybody knew and everybody knows that abortion is wrong. And the Marquis de Sade, one of the most genuinely wicked human beings in history, of whom we have a record. He was dramatically pro abortion. Are we surprised? He argued that women needed abortion so that they could be equally as depraved and detached from the consequences of sex as men. So if women wanted to be happy libertines, the way he considered himself to pursue pleasure at all other costs, regardless of childbearing the needs of the future, the needs of other people, he regarded the ego. And it's a certain of its will. To the only good. The Marquis de Sade considered themselves the liberator of mankind. He was going to free us from Christian morale. Free us from having to care about other people. He was going to free the strong from having to care about the week. Remember, this is someone who for his own sexual amusement would kidnap and torture prostitutes. That's why he ended up in prison. People today pretend that he was imprisoned for his ideas. He was imprisoned as a violent film as a sick, aristocrat, who used his money and power to prey on poor helpless women who were otherwise starving and to physically torture them for his own amusement. His ideas were as close to pure evil as we can imagine. He advocated incest, child rape, child murder. But in his quest to advance pleasure and to free people from Christian morality, he said abortion should be legal. Abortion should be accepted. Abortion is fine. It is the only way for women to be a sexually furry as meant to have the same ability to walk away from the results of their activity to sleep with strangers and walk away. The only way you could do that, that women could be as free as men would be to have abortion widely available. Most people were horrified by this, even the leaders of the French Revolution considered de Sato, a dangerous lunatic. His ideas were revived in the 20th century by Simone de beauvoir. The common law wife with John Paul Sartre. She actually published a book in defense of the Marquis de Sade called must we burn. Must we burn his books? This pretense that she was just speaking up for freedom. But if freedom of the press, but in fact, her book is a defense and a promotion of his ideas and in her book the second sex, she takes decides argument without giving him credit and says that abortion must be legal so that women can be libertines just like men. And she signed with great petition in France that led to its legal proportions, legalization there. So the pro choice movement, via Simone de beauvoir, goes straight back to the satanic rituals and torture fantasies of the Marquis de Sade. It is a direct election. Yes, let's connect the dots here, folks. If you care about women, decide a powerful, wealthy man used his power and his money to torture poor women who had fallen into prostitution. It doesn't get more obviously evil. And this is the man who was arguing for abortion and let's go to Simon de beauvoir in my book is atheism dead. I talk about at the end of his life, Jean-Paul Sartre comes to faith and what's amazing is that Simon de beauvoir was outraged, utterly outraged. You start seeing that there is a satanic animus behind these things. This is not simply like, oh, I'm for free love. There's something deeper and she was so offended. She was absolutely outraged and betrayed that this man who comes to his senses at the end of his life. That he would dare even to voice what he's thinking, that he would be a free thinker. She felt betrayed by him. That's kind of where we are, folks. We're getting clarity here. We're getting spiritual clarity on what is behind some of these things. That's right. And we have to remember that just Jean-Paul Sartre's argument against the existence of God was not a rational. It was not that there wasn't evidence for it. It was not that the arguments didn't point to it. He essentially said, it's intolerable for there to be a God. And for us not to be him. In other words, the human will can not stand the idea of having an omnipotent master. So we must reject him so that we can feel omnipotent in ourselves, which is to serve in heaven. I mean, it's that satanic ego. It is at the very heart of its human pride, which goes all the way back to Eden. It is so dark. It is so evil. That's what we're talking about. In case you're scoring at home, that's right. And that's what we're facing here. One of the two political parties in America. I mean, political parties in America is the party of the Marquis de sa. It's the party of Sartre. It's the party of Margaret Sanger. It's the party of killing the innocent for the sake of our sexual convenience, but really for the sake of our own sense of omnipotence, our own sense of absolute sovereignty over ourselves. And one of the things that helped suppose this, the same people who think a woman should be able to abort her 8 month fetus and insist that even if it survived the abortion that the doctor kill it, because her bodily sovereignty is that absolute. Those same people didn't want to give that woman a choice of our whether or not to have the COVID vaccine. It is madness..

"It's also, I think, ordinary folks too, who are thinking, wait a minute, wouldn't these women have leg hair and armpit hair? That Judy messaged in, say, hair has been removed since Egyptian times, various chemicals and tweezers she puts it, read the Marquis de Sade. Yeah, no, that's totally true. Hair has been removed, especially for ritualistic purposes, and as well for aesthetic reasons. Usually by a particularly fancy people upper class people, but for most of history in most times and in most places, ordinary people would have had underarm hair and leg hair ordinary women would have had underarm hair and leg hair. In most times and places. Yes, and I think that's what you're getting to here, isn't it? We spend a lot of time or rather the people making these programs spend a lot of time on the accuracy of lots of different things. They are called out, aren't they? If there's, I don't know, a random remote control in the background or something. But why? Reddit goes wild. But why not this? Why do you think it matters though? You know, I've been thinking about this and I think the easy answer is that our contemporary aesthetic is a hairless for the most part. Underarms and legs for women, right? And so I think a lot of people very cynically, especially on Twitter to have said that it's because they want ratings and they think that underarm hair or leg hair will turn people off. I mean, that's an option. But I've actually been thinking more about this and I really think that period appropriate body hair wouldn't really turn people off, I feel like most people, I don't think we give viewers enough credit. And I think most people would say, oh, you know, I never thought of that. I suppose women wouldn't have removed their underarm hair, whatever. I think most people, I don't think it would turn people off too much. But I do think that there's an element now, I think nowadays that there's some celebrities who are kind of experimenting with having underarm hair and kind of showing it in public. I think that there's an element of it being sort of it's transgressive and it's sort of feminist and almost like a power move. And so I wonder sometimes if producers just kind of want to sidestep that whole thing entirely, or they think it won't, that that sort of power move feminist sort of could be off putting. Yeah, for the particular career, have you seen any TV or film showing a true representation? So I've seen it only on the great, which is by Hulu, about Catherine gray, but only I think one of the women on there had some very sort of taste armpit hair. And then 1883, which I haven't seen. But I think it's about sort of pioneer women. And the lead character on there has plenty of armpit hair. So both sort of American shows, I think. I find it anywhere else. Well, yes, and also just about how people's teeth would have looked and also body shape, in different in different times. Is that accurate? Would you say is a historian? No. For the most part now, I can remember watching the movie Joan of Arc and the English had horrible, terrible teeth, and then the French had beautiful white pearly teeth, and this is, you know, and I was like, wait, and I asked my dad, why is that? And he said, oh, they're just trying to make the English look extra bad. An extra villainous so I think it's sometimes used for cinematic purposes. But I think for the most part, we're not getting an accurate representation of dental hygiene or of hair removal. I will say though that shows like the last kingdom have done a really good job of portraying sort

"In your eye. Unfortunately, this drug trial entailed having injections in your eye, which I just found a really horrifying prospect. The first thing I thought of was that film Andalusian dog by Salvador Dalí where there's actually a razor that cuts that slices the surface of an eye, it's an animal eye, which I don't think that makes it any better. It's still just like gruesome and that's perhaps an extreme image for an injection medically monitored, but were you afraid of getting injection in your eye? Afraid doesn't even begin to cover it. Yeah, I was terrified. You know, I brought a friend, I made the doctor do not just the normal two layers of numbing cream, but like four layers, even though he said, not going to make a difference. I said psychologically, it will. And it's funny, Terry that you mentioned a movie because a movie came immediately to mind when this was happening because they used this very kind of Marquis de Sade looking clamp to hold your eye open because obviously your reflex is going to be the blink if something's coming toward your eye. And I felt like Malcolm McDowell and a clockwork orange when that happened. I thought, oh, I've seen this movie. And it was unpleasant either. But you know, you get through it. It's a horrible moment or a horrible couple seconds, and a lot of stinging for hours afterwards. But you go on with it. And you learn in that moment, what I think most people learn in any kind of journey like mine, which is that when you have to, you can get through moments through challenges through pain. That you never imagined you could. And on the far side of it, there's for lack of a better phrase a sense of triumph, and even a sense of pride in having gotten through it, that becomes its own minor consolation. So what happened to the drug? What happened with this drug?.

"If you know anything about the Italian film director Pierre Paolo pasolini. The chances are it is going to be his last film. John believes Dale writes about film for The Economist. Salah or the 120 days of sodom is a film which is still today banned in many countries. On its release caused outrage across the political spectrum. The film represents a descent into hell as four functionaries of the fascist government. Kidnap torture and rape very young teenagers. However, on the occasion of the centenary of his birth, it's worth considering the true breadth of pasolini's career. Born in 1922 in Bologna, Pierre Paulo pasolini was a writer and intellectual, a playwright, an actor, a novelist, and a political commentator, although outside of Italy, he's largely known for his movies. He was politically a communist, a devoted communist. Of course, one of the most important and defining aspects of pasolini's life was the fact that he was openly gay in a country in which that was still illegal. His first love in terms of art was poetry in his first collection was published when he was only 18. His interest in films started professionally when he was hired by Federico Fellini is slightly older colleague to rewrite some of the parts of Leno di kabiri, which tells the story of a life of a Roman prostitute. It wasn't long before he was writing and directing his own films, which gave his own distinctive vision of neorealism for the new generation. Perhaps his most audacious choice was to film and adaptation of the gospel according to saint Matthew, the life of Jesus in 1962. In some ways, this looks like an odd choice for a communist atheist, but pasolini approached it much as he had done his earlier films that this was another story of people on the margins of life about poverty and about rising up from your circumstances. The film has acquired a reputation since its release as a favorite amongst Christians and amongst Catholics and the Vatican despite their suspicion of the director lauded the film on its release. He would say quite openly that he didn't want to destroy myths, but remake them. This can be most clearly seen in his celebrated trilogy of life. Free collections of stories from the Middle Ages that the Cameron, the Canterbury tales by chaucer and the Arabian night, and turned them each into brilliant films, which depict the body dirty slapstick comic life of people just getting by at the very edge of their survival. I came out to speak to you, Jenkins. Speak. Well, Jenkins. You have bewitched me? It's useless to deny it. This had the unintended effect of spawning a whole subgenre of soft porn or frankly hard porn based in historical context. Pasolini was so distressed by this that he decided to make an opposing trilogy the trilogy of death and Salah would be the first film of that three film cycle. So malaria, no. I probably am. This movie is loosely based on the novel by the Marquis de Sade, and as you would expect from such a controversial source, it is shocking and explicit. Some of the scenes of torture and humiliation are really upsetting. Pasolini was making a film which was criticizing not only the fascist period of the moment in which the film is set, but contemporary Italy in which consumerism and commodification knew no bounds, and he wanted to draw our attention to the fact that these young bodies were being used time and again in advertising and in porn for purely commercial purposes. That's why it's so distressing to watch because the people who were being accused of not just the fascist torturers, but also as the audience. To add to the legend of Pierre Paolo Lopez, we have to also talk about the way he died shortly before salat was released into cinemas. His death on the beach in ostia outside Rome was initially thought to be the result of a sexual encounter gone wrong. However, evidence would come to light specifically the injuries that he had sustained, which showed that the idea of a lone murderer, the man who was arrested and confessed to the crime, was highly improbable. Even today, thinking about his murder, many people in Italy still think of it much more as an assassination because he was producing work which was politically challenging the people at the top. But in the end, pier Paolo pasolini is not all darkness. That was one film. And the rest of his work is, if anything a celebration of life. And he deserves a reputation today far in excess of what he actually has. That's all for this episode of the intelligence.

"Sing? Songs like and winter sky and rambling boy and all these other great songs, you sing in the same cave, which a lot of performers over the years have to lower it. So what do you do with your voice that allows you to do that? Well, today I sat down and practiced the piano and sang. Did some exercises that I was taught by my teacher and if there is a secret, it is what max margolis taught me, which is that everything is about clarity and phrasing. If you listen to a singer and you understand the words, it goes a long way to proving that they're singing well. If you don't, maybe not so much. And my whole purpose in life is to tell the stories so that they can be understood. I know some people who have, let's say, rugged voices, they're charming, but the real challenge is to keep telling the stories and telling them understandably. You mentioned max margolis. He was your vocal coach? Yes. When did you start with him? I started with him in 1965. You know, it was a pianist, trained pianist. I sang in the choirs in the courses, but when I got stretched out on the road after 61, when I began to make records and have to travel all over the world, I would lose my voice all the time. And so by 1965, it was clear that I had to do something about it. And I didn't know anybody in New York who would do that. I mean, my friends who were the folk music community, nobody was taking singing lessons. That's for sure. So I called Harry Belafonte and has somebody who worked with him and said, oh, Harry says you have to talk to his guitarist, ray bogoslav, and you have to call ray because ray knows about these things. So I called ray bogoslav, and he said, well, there's only one person that would be worthwhile to work with and his name is max margolis. So I wrote his phone number down, and so at the end of the summer, I was in my apartment on the upper west side, and I picked up the piece of paper with the phone number on it, which I had kept. And I called this number. And this man answered, and I said, who I was. And I told him who had recommended him. And we talked for a little bit, and I said, I'd really like to come and see you and see if you can help me out with this problem. And he said, what do you do? And I told him, and he said, oh, I'm not interested. You people are not serious. Folks. I said, oh, trust me, I'm serious. And I begged, and pleaded. And finally, he said, all right, he said, will spend a little time together. You can come and see me. And I said, well, that's wonderful. But where do you live? And he told me, and I walked out my front door on the 8th floor of one 64 west 79. And I turned right and walked past the elevator and rang his bell. He didn't tell. He didn't expect you quite so soon. No. That's how right on these two folks were that I'm obviously it was karmic. And it was meant. And then I studied with him for 32 years until he died. And the last thing he said to me at Roosevelt hospital when he was dying was don't worry. As long as you know that it's clarity and phrasing, you're going to be fine. How do you practice clarity and phrasing? Well, you think about clarity about the words, you know, my husband will say to me, you've got to be clearer on that song. You know, it's a new song and you're not finding your way into it. It's not understandable to me. So that'll do it. Every time. We'll be right back with more from Judy Collins after a quick break.

One of the things reading your autobiography that I found fascinating, you lived in the upper west side, but you were really part of the Greenwich Village scene. And how quickly you got to know seemingly everybody when you had trouble with your voice, you phoned Harry Belafonte. What was it about the village at that point? I know there were a lot of talented people there, but everybody seemed to intersect so many times. Was it a small community? Was it that everybody was drinking together or what was it that made it so, so connected? You know, when you think of the village, it's a very small area of physical area. It's only a few blocks. You would think of it as this huge place, and yes, we drank together, it was very much a social club, but when I got to the village, it was 1961, and there was a kind of a word of mouth around the whole country. The people ran the clubs would say, to another person who ran a club in Chicago, maybe she sold tickets. And they would hire me. I was there for 6 weeks at a time, or sometimes a month and a half, two months in that way the venues got to know that you were doing business. So they would hire you. And I went to New York for the first time since I was a teenager. I went to Greenwich Village, and I was the opener. I was the headliner at gerty's folk city in April of 19 61. Dylan had been when he was called Robert Zimmerman. He had been in Denver, and he was hanging out there. He was homeless there. He was sleeping on the couches of people who sang at the exodus, which is a club that I sang in, I opened for bob Gibson, who discovered Joan Baez, and then he called Jack holzman and said, I think I found your Joan bias. It was a very tiny community, although we were stretched out very thin all over the country, but that's really the way it was. The night that I opened, as the headliner, at girty's folks, everybody was there that I had ever seen in the record stores and Pete Seeger was there and Peter Paul you were there and Dave red and rock was there and ramblin Jack Elliott was there because my opener was 13 year old named Arlo Guthrie. So they had come to see what woody's kid was going to do. And I've known Arnold for 60 years. I was fascinated that this sort of dominant, slightly fearsome character for you when you went there was Joan Baez, wasn't Bob Dylan, he was still a kid, Joan was the one that everybody kind of gravitated to. And she seemed to be the charismatic one. Oh, and she became a friend very early on in her sister. I was embedded with this group of people, including people like Phil ochs, who one day, he knew that I was recording in the heat of the summer, was wonderful song by him, and so he knew I was going to be recording that month in 64, and so he brought Eric Anderson over. I didn't know Eric at all. So he brought him over and Eric brushed me aside, raced to the bedroom, sat down, finished writing the words to the song and then came back and sang me thirsty boots. And I said, oh, that's great. I'll record that tomorrow too. So things like that were always happening. It's just they seem to happen so rapidly. That's right. Oh, Dennis, husband was my manager for a while. I don't know if you know that. I didn't know that. But you guys played a very particular role, which you don't find in pop music anymore. Before you started writing, you were almost like the curators of what was happening. You sang Dylan songs before Dylan was popular, and he wouldn't have had a career without. John Baez. And Odetta saying everybody's songs. Yeah. You became this interpreter of these songwriters, people hadn't really heard of. And I want to just talk about a few of them. Because the list is so impressive. How did you first meet Ian and Sylvia? Well, they were recording for Electra. And they were charming. They had a place in the village. And you know, electro was a family. And Jack Olson and his wife, Nina. She used to do these big parties when you had a concert somewhere. And we'd meet everybody where I'd go to hear Ian and Sylvia saying somewhere at some club or I'd go hang out at the gaslight and listen to Dave and rock and there would be Phil ochs singing and Peter lafarge. There was always something going on. I listened to the songs and I would pluck out the ones that I knew would work for me. And I went to see Dylan and it must have been 62. It was very early on. It was town hall. And he sang masters of war and I just flipped out and also fare thee well. And I said, I have to record this guy. So then I came back to the east and moved straight into the village as where I knew I had to be. I just had to be there. In a way, everybody found a way to get into that recording studio was electorate and make a record. Sometimes they didn't stay all that long, I did, but I did get to know people because of that because that social life that kind of swirled around Nina and Jack holzman. And how did you meet Leonard Cohen? You may be the only person not to have had an affair with Leonard Cohen. Yes, I'm the only person who didn't. Yes. The only girl in the room left standing. I had a couple of friends. Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner were friends of mine in those old days in the village. And I had a friend named Linda gottlieb and she and I and Mary Martin would have dinner. The four or 5 of us would have dinner. Mary Martin worked for Warner Brothers, and she was a Canadian, and we would go out to dinner and she would talk about her life in Canada, and she would talk about this guy. Named Leonard, and she would say Leonard's a wonderful poet, and we all love him. We all grew up in the same neighborhood. That's also where Nancy bakal came into my life, too, a little after that. And she said, we're also worried about him because he's a brilliant person. He gets some books published, and we go to his little readings in Montreal, but we don't understand these poems at all. They're so obscure. So this went on for a couple of years. In and out of various spots where we'd have dinner, lunch or whatever. Then in 66 she called me one day and she said, well, you'll be surprised, but he's writing songs. And he wants to come to see you to record his songs. Now, by that time, of course I had had the hand in a number of careers, many, many artists. I suppose it was known that if you could get me on a record on Electra because I was recording every year, it would be a good thing for your career. I said to Leonard, you know, Mary told me that you write songs. And I'd love to hear some. If that's okay with you. He said, okay, I'll come by the next day. So the next day he came by. The apartment, and he said, I can't sing and I can't play the guitar. And I don't know if this is a song. And he's saying these three songs, he's saying he's a stranger song, which I've never recorded yet, but I will someday. And he sang me dress rehearsal rag, which is the story of a rehearsal for a suicide. Which I thought was great, and then he sang me, Suzanne. Now, Michael got it right away with Susan. He said, oh, that's it. And I said, I'm not so sure. So it wasn't until a day or two later that it sunk in. That was when I called Jack, we had been working on in my life, which was my 5th album. And it was a huge departure from everything I'd ever done because I know there were no guitars there was no Dylan. There was no fill oaks. It was songs from the morrow outside sounds from the pirate Jenny. It was a huge departure. And in my life, a Beatles song. We should just back up. This was a famous theater production. By Peter Brooks. And the story of the Marquis de Sade, a fantastic production. And the music was not distinctly song. So I took the whole soundtrack, and I had them put it on a reel to reel for me, and then I edited it with my own razor, to put the thing together so that it would make a complete kind of text as a song. And then we said, let's get Josh to do this. Let's get Josh Ruth going to orchestrate these things. Pirate Jenny, the music for the more in my life, et cetera. And so we've done all this material. We went to England actually to record so we could get the folks who sang for the Marat sod recordings. And we were out there, you know, we were having a very good time. Nobody knew what we were doing. And nobody understood why we were doing what we were doing. And so we were very happy with it, but Jack said to me, it's missing something. And that was when Leonard came along. I called Jack a couple days later and I said, I think I found the missing something. I had Leonard play Suzanne for him, and he said, oh, that's it. But we're done. Wow. It's amazing to me at that point that you had 5 or 6 records by that. Before you did in my life. And they'd done okay, but you didn't have a breakout hit on any of them. You were touring a lot. A musician today would not get 6 kicks at the can. Well, they didn't have Jack holtzman on their side. Do you think that was it? Oh, yeah. He was a believer. You know, he said to me, when bob gives had called him from Denver and said I have found your Joan Baez that was in 59. And bob said, I think you have to come out here to Denver and hear her. And he did. But he didn't introduce himself to me, and two years later he came to see me at gerty's folk city and said, you're ready to make a record. And years later, he said, I didn't know that he had come out to Denver. And then he called, after saw me at gertie, she called bal Gibson and said, I have now found my Judy Collins. And he told me this, maybe 5 years ago, I heard this story from him. He saves these little nuggets for me and tells me, decades later. I was saying he hung onto that one for a long time. I had no idea. I said, why didn't you introduce yourself? He said, because I heard you, and I thought she's very good. But then he sought, I did not know if you were serious, and I said, which could have asked me. As always, very seriously. He said, well, I didn't know that. But you see he had a heart also has integrity and he knows that it takes time to build an artist. I would do an ask about two more songwriters. Could you champion very early, Randy Newman? How did that song come to your channel? Somebody sent me somebody from his camp, sent me that song when I was on the verge of recording the in my life album. He had recorded it, and I heard it. And I said, I'm putting this on the album. That's what made the decision in his mind that he was going to be a songwriter. And not go the route of most of his relatives who wrote music for movies, as you know. That was what did it was that I chose the song and I sang it, and of course it's a great and the song is great. I think it will rain today. I think it's going to rain. It's going to rain today. Just an amazing song. So, but I didn't know him. Somebody brought the song to my producer to Mark abramson and kind of threw it on his desk. And how did you first hear Joni Mitchell? Another one of those miraculous moments. I was in the village. I was hanging out, recording, traveling, and I became friendly with Al Cooper, who started blood sweat and tears, then 67, I was passed out, I'm sure, one night, and it was about three in the morning, and I got this call from Al Cooper, and I said, why are you calling me? What is going on? Is something wrong? And he said, no, no. No, no, no. I followed this girl home, and she was good-looking. And she said she was a songwriter. And so I figured I couldn't lose. So I followed her home. And when she got there, she started singing these songs, and I said to her, hold everything, I have to call, Judy. And so he called me, and I said, why are you calling me in the middle of the night? And then he said, I have a surprise for you. She does write songs. And you are going to love them. And then he put her on the phone, and she's saying me both sides now. She's saying that on the phone. Yeah. Did she play guitar when she was singing? Playing the guitar and singing into the phone with Al Cooper sitting next to her. And you thought what? I thought, oh, my God. I'll be right over. And I took Jack with me the next day. And I said, this is it. And he said, you're right. And that was it. I did Michael for mountains, too, which I don't sing in concerts, but it is a great song. And then you later did a couple of other big songs of hers. I did Chelsea morning. Chelsea morning was a hit for you. And then president Clinton and his wife said they named Chelsea morning after listening to my version of the song. But that's a big song that I do. I love that song a lot. Did you maintain a relationship with her over the years? Not really. We've grown apart and we also live in different parts of the country. And she doesn't travel. So much. I mean, she has had her physical issues. But we have had some very nice times Clive Davis Gus together a couple years ago. She was still in a wheelchair, but she came to the Grammy party that he has before the Grammys. And I sang both sides now with a wonderful band for her. And so that was very special. Okay, well, I'm so happy you could fit us in. Because you may be the busiest person I know. What a treat for me. I've loved every second of it. Thank you so much for coming down.

"I want to know more about the Marquis de Sade, but I feel ashamed to be wanting to know more about him. So I'm going to stick to people who've contribution to the world has been lighter, happier, like Anna pavlova, 1881 to 1931, the great Russian ballet dancer revered throughout the world, born in St. Petersburg, but she literally became a huge international star and to mark her performances in Australia and New Zealand, chefs there, popularized a dish named in her honor consisting of a meringue, filled with tropical fruits and covered in cream, a pavlova is not the pavlova one of your favorite favorite foods. It is and the Eton mess is another one, which is quite similar. But yeah, the pavlova is in layers, isn't it? Made in a mold that looks like a Tutu really clever. And do you know the peach melba? I don't know anything. Now dame Nellie melba was an opera singer wasn't she? She was born, Helen Porter Mitchell, Australian, born in 1861, she became a world famous prima Donna and in the days I think when he was good to have an Italian sounding name because it made you, she came from Melbourne. I think that's why she called herself melba. It sounds it's I'm going to sing tosca. So I am melba from Melbourne. And there's a height of her career, dame Nelly, she became de merely in 1918. She consulted the famous chef escoffier, who worked for Ritz Cesar Ritz over the menu for a dinner party, she was planning, and for dessert, she asked for a pesh flambe, but Ritz insisted that ice would be preferable. And escoffier settled the dispute by creating a new dish which combined both peaches and ice together with a raspberry sauce and whipped cream, bash, melba, who was born. Sounds very good. Gosh, so many acronyms to cover and so little time. I think it's time for our correspondence. Yeah, exactly. And see how people have been in touch and what they would like to say. We have one here, jars from Kenny Graham, who says, dear S R WP. There is an expression used often by Scottish sports journalists..

"French espanol dictionaries out there, so I'll have a look. Good. Okay, give me some more. Have we got time? Okay, well, shrapnel goes back to Henry S Shatner general Henry shrapnel, who, during the Peninsula war, so this is in the early 19th century, invented a shell that had bullets in it in a small bursting charge. So when it was fired, it would burst the shell and scatter bullets. So pretty horrible, really. It was called shrapnel shell and the bullets were called shrapnel shot or simply shrapnel for short, but what I always find interesting is that shrapnel also took on a slang sense, meaning coins. So soldiers returning from the First World War would talk about shrapnel in their pocket, meaning loose change. Gosh, it's interesting, a number of these words have a military, the several of the words we've already mentioned have a sort of military connotation. I agree. I can take you on to sadism if you like. Yes, introduced me to sadism. Okay. So we have the French writer and he was a soldier too, I think, or the Marquis de Sade, to thank for this. So he was imprisoned in the late 18th and early 19th century. I think for writing pornographic books. I don't know if that was exactly why he was imprisoned, but anyway, we know that he wrote these books. And one perversion in particular really fascinated him, and that was inflicting pain on others and the arousal that came from that. So the French named it studies and we took on the word sadism, and it's contrasted with masochism, which is pleasure to write or sexual pleasure, particularly derived from experiencing that pain yourself. And that's another eponym. That's in the Austrian writer, Leopold von sacher masoch, and the German team was really hard to say, and that's what kids miss. And then again, we adopted that as masochism. Well, I used to live in Paris, and I once saw a remarkable play about the Marquis de Sade. I felt embarrassed to be going to see it, it's extraordinary that all these years after he was born in 1740, so all these years later, his name is still very much part of the language. But I was very struck by how small the actor playing the maquis de Sade was. And I met him afterwards in the bar it was on this little tiny theaters that they have in Paris. It was really more of a bar and you met the cast at the bar after the show. And he told me that he was taller than the Marquis de Sade. And this actor was only about 5 foot tall and the market decide was around 5 foot tall, but he was supposed to be very good-looking. And in the story, they told how, at the age of 14, he joined the army. And he married he married well and his wife, towered over him, and certainly part of the clay was this contrast between his tall wife and this small man and the games they got up to. Anyway, we don't need to go into all that. This is a family of podcast. Oh, I've got a quotation here from.

"Promo code. Eric. With early morning yesterday volks welcome back talking to Jon's Merrick John, you write tons of stuff for the stream, stream dot org. What can we talk about that you've discussed recently? Well, I've got to be a series that I'm doing. For the stream, which is code for, I'm writing a book and my deadline is coming up. So a lot of my pieces of the stream will contribute to my upcoming book. The recent recent one I wrote was called a constitution for demons. And in it, I talk about what how the meaning of liberty in the U.S. Constitution and in the American founding was perverted and entirely turned upside down by case Planned Parenthood V Casey in 1992. I vividly remember when that decision came down. Two of Reagan's appointees turned out not to be pro life. And stabbed us in the back. And we were stunned, I remember sitting in a room with a bunch of my Friends from operation rescue. The day after that decision. And we felt like we were in a foreign country. One of us said, effectively, we're now living in the United States of abortion because justice Anthony Kennedy Reagan appointee whom Reagan was assured was pro life. They lied to him. Anthony Kennedy said, at the heart of American liberty, is nihilism is relativism is an empty existentialist quest for meaning that never comes to any answers and that doesn't even answer fundamental questions like when does life begin. That kind of empty nihilist freedom. That is the freedom of Lucifer. That is, that is not the freedom of the American founders who consider themselves bounded by national natural law. It's not implied by science, even by darwinist materialism. That kind of I get to write my own moral code. And I get to make it up as I go along. That's worse than darwinism. That comes from the Marquis de Sade. The Marquis decided and his rebellion against God and his refusal to allow any restrictions on his will. That filtered via Margaret Sanger and Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de beauvoir, that is the philosophy of the sexual revolution. And the sexual revolution is only possible if abortion is legal and available to wipe out the children who get produced as a result of all that promiscuity. In order to make the sexual revolution possible and to keep it going, Anthony Kennedy wrote this series of lies about the essence of American freedom. So in my piece it's stream dot org. I am analyzing how can we survive this? Because this is still the law of the land..

"Odds, I'm glad you brought that up. A yacht because that was something I think that I did an aspect patterns episodes with Carol Taylor a year ago, but we didn't get to yards. And because we mainly focused on the other aspects that were formed by Ptolemaic aspects or the patterns for my Ptolemaic aspects in the odds, it was a weird one because it's too queen Kang says that our sex tile another planet. So yeah, though, sometimes it gets very hyped in modern astrology. I would say sometimes overhyped, it sounds like you're not as pro over hyping odds as some might be or yes. Well, I think they're important, but I also think that throughout the 20th century because we had Neptune Pluto holding an almost consistent sextile for a 130 years that there is an inordinate there's more yards than there have been in centuries before or after because of every time a planet moves through that opposite point to the sex tile to the Neptune Pluto sextile, there it is. So it's kind of become overplayed, but I'll tell you when I see a quintal or subtitle yod, which we'll see in a few minutes, I get excited because those seem to be way more profound. Okay. That's a good. That's a good answer. And it seems like there's things like that, though, that sometimes some astrologers either want to say either specialized in or focus on and sometimes that's how something gets overhyped is that it just becomes an important piece in one school and sometimes one school will tend to overhype it. But that happens in a lot of different things. I agree with debt like the nodes or Pluto or the lot of fortune or, you know, I'm trying to think of other things like that where some school emphasizes it so much that it almost becomes a little bit too overhyped for some reason. Yeah. I would agree with that. Yeah. And another part of the I don't want to say taking the wind out of the sale of the odd, is I actually think that any isosceles triangle. That falls on a harmonic. Functions as a yacht. Okay. In other words, whether it's a traditional sextile quincunx yad, or a T square. It is a nicely triangle with a basin and apex. The energy is still the same. It's the opposition that creates the stressor tension that is fed up through the apex. That's the 90° points to both. Thor's hammer, where you have a square and a half a square and a half in a square. You know, again, not a traditional configuration, but man, you look at these and you see these in people's charts and again and again and again, these other configurations that are based upon symmetrical geometry and harmonics, they just seemed to work. Okay. All right, this might be good for that might be good for the questions as far as I'm seeing that we haven't covered because we've actually covered so much already. Now, before we jump into charts, though, I just want to say a quick thing about because we're going to be now looking at some charts that we're going to look at through our normal filter. And then we're going to look at them through the Quinn Quinn tile, not quincunx, quintile septal filter. And I I've done a lecture on and off for years called the X tiles. The truth is out there. And it's a good title. In which the exiles are the quintiles, the subtitles, the turnstiles, the kitchen tiles, the infantiles, all the different tiles. They're reptiles. The reptiles, Aaron Sullivan, who's in my subtitle Hall of Fame. I have a Hall of Fame for each of my minor aspects. Every time I see her, she goes, hey, Rick Howard my reptiles. Nice. All right, so our first chart. No wait, but before we get to before we actually do this first chart, the primary, there's a huge difference between quintiles and subtitles. All right. Quintiles are natural. They occur in nature. It's the fivefold. It's the excuse me, it's the the starfish. It's the rose is a quintile. It's a 5 pointed star, spiraling inward. There's a lot of quintile radial geometry in the natural world. There's almost no 7 7 pointed star natural. Southern is a man-made construct more often than not. There's the 7 virtues or there's 7 days in the week or 7 colors in the rainbow primarily because Isaac Newton was a 7 freak because of the prophecies of Daniel. He added indigo to make it 7 colors. But there's no natural 7 7 is otherworldly. So the quintile that we talked about earlier based upon the golden mean, is beautiful. It can be painful because the 5 pointed star inverted is the symbol of satanic religions. Okay. And so you see strong quintile. That's the 5 pointed star. You see strong quintile configurations and charts like the Marquis de Sade and Albert speer and Adolf Hitler just a few that come to mind. But most quintile charts are natural and beautiful. Now, compare that with the subtitle charts which are otherworldly. They're so complicated that they almost have to squeeze into three dimensions. There's been research done on the preponderance of tiles at UFO sightings and people who have reported those kinds of experiences. When I see a chart with strong subtitle emphasis, I immediately go to the question of so what's the deal with non physical consciousness? Ghosts goblin spirit guides ancestor guides aliens, things that go bump in the night, you know, psychic mediums. I've done charts of many professional psychic mediums and the subtitle aspect overwhelmingly shows up again and again and again. So what's interesting is that they're both in a way metaphysical, but the quintiles are more natural, more beautiful and more charismatic, whereas the subtitles are more brilliant, but they're harder to maintain, because it's almost like other dimensions are leaking into this world for a glimpse and a quintile is 72° in subtitle is 51.4. But just as a matter of record, when I say quintiles, I mean quintiles and by quintiles of natal interpretation, there's nuanced difference, but basically it's about quintiles being quintiles and by quintiles, and when I say subtitles, I'm referring to subtitles by subtitles and tricep tiles, which are not on that little map. Yeah. But again, if you think of.

"My language was used as a tool to penetrate to dismantle to bore holes, not through projections, delusions or Cantor miscommunication, but to the self esteem and dignity of my characters. And I was so surprised when I read that because it seemed just completely off. And I remember giving she gave an example if I'm remembering right, which I might not be. But she is an example gave a two people in the store romantic weekend they're about to go off on an ill fated tryst. And it's becoming clear to the woman that this isn't, this isn't a good idea, but she's one of those things once it got ball gets rolling. It's hard to stop it. And through her eyes, she's fields at the airport and she sees a kind of a sad looking unattractive couple walking they look like they're not getting along. The man is walking too fast for the woman. She's hurrying to keep up. The trailing sex and disappointment behind them. And I believe Magny Nelson gave that as an example of my cruel point of view. And I don't understand that as cruel, for one thing, the young woman is thinking, it isn't telling them that they're unattractive and are trailing sex and disappointment. She's not verbalizing it. She's just having a thought and also when we're in a situation where we're anxious and we're sensing that it's not going to go well and that perhaps sex and disappointment is in our future, it's just simply very natural to project that onto whoever you're looking at. I know the book by Maggie Nelson about cruelty and art, and I felt, although I'm always interested in the things she has to say, and I think she is almost always interesting and that book there seems to be something going on. She presents in the opening a hatred of cruelty and the cruelty in art in the Marquis de Sade and elsewhere many painters, but by the time you are into the book, her fascination with cruelty becomes evident, and you think she's sneaking something under the wrong and not acknowledging it. Now we are talking with one of my favorite writers. I think also one of the greatest living American writers that is Mary Gates skill, and she's put together a book of dreams and stories called the devil's treasure. She's done it for a press that is a new press to me, it's a books has done this book in collaboration with the unnamed press in Los Angeles California. It is a come on at first I thought it was an anthology, but it's not an Anthony. It's a collage. In which Mary Gates go reveals the double sidedness of the life she perceives and I think it's a wonderful book..

"Control this is actually the first time documented in world history that abortion was discussed in a public manner and likely the reason also why western society became more familiar with such a concept. A for his work influenced nici flaubert and voltaire again three of the biggest philosophers and writers infringe his. He actually influenced them and then from this perspective. It's actually very very very very very interesting. A lot of the early feminists say that he was disgusting that you know he was a rapist pedophile and all of these things that his work had no redeeming value whatsoever and then there actually have been a lot of feminist academics. Who have come out and said that you have to look at it from a different lens. That a lot of the women in his writings aren't the damsels in distress. Who are taken against their will but women who come into their own sexuality and willingly take part in the debauchery and axa filth so just he has been just so completely controversial for so long.

"One of these young female servants confronted the market. Assad once he walked up to him with a pixel drawn pointed it directly at his face at point blank range and pulled the trigger but it jammed so again the parisian police relate. I guess we really do have to do something about this. Like had a piece of garbage is raping and kidnapping everyone so they devised a plan.

But you know when word travels a little bit more slowly back in the late. Seventeen hundreds when it's basically pigeon and horseback so he had no idea was he was pretty much the black sheep of most of the family so is likely that no one else would have alerted him to that so to saad set out for paris and was almost immediately apprehended basically upon entering city limits. So he once again was sent to jail. That prison was eventually shut down. And so he was moved to the infamous st in seventeen eighty four and that was just five years before the french revolution. But here at the bus. Tia is where he began to write. That's what he's primarily known for and he actually started to write. When he was imprisoned in the st a guard would sneak him tiny rolls of paper where he began to write. They don't vent journey to set them. Or what english speakers speakers will such as myself. No as the one hundred twenty days of sodom. The book was turned into a film which is considered to be one of the most vile and difficult to watch films ever made. I love it. I have it. It is actually part of the criterion collection and is considered to be one of the most influential films ever made. The film is loosely based on the book but the book chronicles noblemen who decide to experience. Absolute sexual pleasure and the most filthy and degenerate as possible. Six hundred of them to be exact. The most shocking part of one hundred twenty days of sodom is where basically they kidnap a bunch of teenagers the local village for whatever reasons and they actually make them eat big bowls of their poop of their feces. It is absolutely disgusting. But that foam came out in the seventies so in any case on july fourth of seventeen eighty-nine market assad was moved to a mental hospital in paris where he would frequently yell out of his window..

"In seventeen forty into nobility he became known as a passionate and rambunctious child and around ten years old. He was sent to a jesuit college. The least say lou grant in paris where he spent four years and there. He was subjected to corporal punishment. In the form of flagellation he was made to bend over a desk or or a chair and then they would flog him around his bare but and his legs. It said that during this time he also witnessed his aunt having sex and he was immediately beaten for being voyeur either way. His pathological intersection between pleasure and pain began around this age at age fourteen. He went to an elite military academy and by sixteen. He was shipped off to fight in the seven year. War he was highly decorated and known for his recklessness as well as his bravery and he ended up returning to paris in seventeen sixty three just as the war ended at that time he was considered a bachelor and basically more or less a hero to some degree. He courted a rich magistrates daughter. But the dad was like nah here. Take the ugly one and he offered her older sister so they married and eventually had two sons and a daughter can imagine that the man whom the term sadism is coined after was into some really grody. Stuff and that would be true. He was known very openly as a libertine and a libertine is someone who basically has no moral or sexual restraint. Do as you wish. A lot of people at that time used religion as their moral compass. So most teens are staunch atheists and they do not believe that man should live by any sort of moral or sexual restraints marquette. Assad became notorious for his sexual appetite and exploits especially while he was married he would travel through paris and the surrounding towns searching for going to each brothel in the area and because of his desire to flog in beat and otherwise degrade the prostitutes at these brothels. He established a name for himself in the underbelly paris. And it wasn't a good one. He would kidnapped women from brothels and bring them back to his residence where he would then time up sometimes drug them and then rape them. He became so well known for salt. That parisian police would preemptively warn brothel owners about allowing women to leave with him like the popo would like to stroll up on horseback and be lake. The marquee is on the move. You need to tell your your girls not to go with him now. A lot of members of the public many members of the public went to the police to report. Basically the like eft up shows that he was into either through one night stands kidnapping people. His visits to a brothel. Everyone pretty much knew about it and he made no attempts to hide is for clarity's so the sod was finally put under surveillance by police who walked his movement and his activities finally on easter sunday.
