Surprises

Andrew Price:

I’m not saying the creators of “Star Trek” were conservatives; they weren’t. But liberalism has shifting values, and for a brief period at the end of the 1960s, liberalism temporarily overlapped with the values of classical liberalism, which is the foundation of modern conservatism. “Star Trek” benefited from this. In fact, I think you’ll be surprised how deeply conservative these shows are.

I will be utterly surpised I am sure.

This is “the Nazi episode.”

I am feeling as if I will be less surprised.

On its surface, you might think a story about Nazis is left wing. After all, Hollywood wants you to believe the Nazis were a right-wing phenomenon equivalent to Libertarianism/ Conservatism. This is laughable, as the national socialist Nazis were everything the left claims to love. Yet, many people still ignorantly accept the idea the Nazis were rightists rather than leftists because that’s what they’ve been taught by leftist teachers. So it shouldn’t surprise us if a show about Nazis was meant as an attack on conservatives.

I was not surprised.

But darn it, he's kind of right! Hideous liberals would have government agents blow up the head of the Poop if they could!



Here we've added a simple on/off switch that controls everything; the Pope is swapped out for a headless version and at the same time on goes the plumbing. The white garment may actually require art, which is a problem, but maybe I can make the various trails of gore sustain somehow - that would be a wonderfully easy solution. And I'm still unsure of the what the right mechanics of the explosion would involve. Bits of his head as an image on a quickly expanding transparent sphere? A one shot set of particle generators? That last seems pretty easy.

Now to help The Lovely Daughter with her art project.

UPDATE!

Idea!



Hmm, maybe not.

It's kind of amusing in motion though...
