Ever watch Lovelace, about the Deep Throat porn tape? I remember thinking it could be shown to church groups. It was so full of pathos. Maybe the church groups is a stretch; or not.

I watched the mini-series Dopesick, about the Oxycontin spread. Michael Keaton. It was well done. Had an inter racial lesbian subplot. Now such stuff is obligatory. Not as bad as the weird stuff in Single Drunk Female. 

I continue to watch The Dropout.

A diver died down very deep years ago. Someone finds him and tries to recover the body and things go very wrong.
I cannot believe the depth recited. 270 meters????? That was true.
Awful.

Diver Records Doom | Last Moments

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Shaw
He used a Mk15.5 with Juergensen Marine Hammerhead electronics and the following gas mixtures: trimix 4/80, 10/70, 15/55, 17/40, 26/25, air, nitrox50, 100% oxygen. The cave elevation was 1,550 metres (5,090 ft) and the dive duration was 9 hours 40 minutes.[2]

On this record-breaking dive, Shaw discovered the body of Deon Dreyer, a South African diver who had died in Bushman's Hole ten years previously. The body was at a depth of 270 metres (890 ft).[3]

I have this on Roku in background. Very long. 3 1/2 hours. It will take maybe days to finish this.
Some former KGB agent who was sent to US then later defected.

Let me know how that compares to Yuri Bezmenov, he was Soviet journalist for Novosti Press Agency and a former PGU KGB "informant" who defected to Canada in 1970 and in 1984 did an interview that is pretty amazing to listen to, and the 4 stages of ideological subversion: 1) Demoralization 2) Destabilization 3) Crisis 4) Normalization seem pretty prescient for what we've seen since his defection...from Clinton to now...from counter-culture 60's crap to now...his statements seem eerily accurate given what we now see, what some call "normal"...

The interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yErKTVdETpw

Some snippets -

According to Benzmenov, the potential recruits and reputable people in the eyes of the KGB were narcissistic, greedy, morally devoid individuals who can help destabilise their country of origin.

“This will happen in America if you allow the Schumuks to bring the country to crisis, promise people all kinds of goodies and paradise on Earth, destabilise your economy, eliminate the principle of free-market competition, put a Big Brother government in Washington DC with benevolent things,” he remarked.

Barsky was asked about Yuri Bezmenov. He thought he was a fraud for a couple reasons.
Yuri Bezmenov was based in India and the KGB is very compartmentalized. It was one of their strengths.
So there is zero chance that Yuri Bezmenov had access to any KGB plans like that.

Barsky said that he received maybe the best training. One on one. The tradecraft was good. The KGB knowledge of US culture was very poor and often wrong. So his training in that area was awful. He almost got caught thanks to poor training. Remember how western media and TV was restricted to the very few in USSR.

So he doubts the KGB had the knowledge or competence to pull off such a subversion of the US. It would require organization and competence. I agree there has been subversion of the US along the lines of Yuri Bezmenov but other explanations are needed. Just my opinion.

The said the CIA is also incompetent in understanding foreign cultures.

They sent him first to Canada so he had the initial culture shock period there rather than the US. He thinks the RCMP was onto him and was following him. He thinks incompetence in the pre computer age was the reason the FBI was not warned about him from the RCMP.

Related to that. Jacob Dreizin talked about CIA incompetence. Some clown who did not know Farsi or Iran was made the expert in some backwater country, Iran. When Iran lit up they relied on this ignorant clown who spewed BS.

More on the above
VERY FASCINATING SO FAR.
HE GREW UP IN EAST GERMANY.
HOW HE WAS RECRUITED BY KGB

How he trained, went to Canada, then US.
He said the KGB's knowledge of US was terrible hence his training.
He was sent to Chicago sink or swim.

He told of a trained KGB agent was used in the western EU as an assassin.
He was sent to kill a KGB defector but instead told the target and did not kill him.
The assassin defected to the US.

This guy Jack Barsky later found him in the US and they met.

 ..
WOW What a life. Had it on during cleaning and repairs.

He had been here 10 years.
He fathered a child and married a woman.
The KGB sent emergency signal that he was in danger and to execute plans to run to Canada.
He stalled because of his daughter.
He told them he could not return because he had AIDs so they would not want him back with this decadent western disease. He stopped spying. They told his wife in Germany he had died.

Over the years some pissed off Soviet KGB archivist had copied some notes. Pissed off because his sick son was not allowed to travel for treatment. He later tried to give them to the US embassy in Moscow but they were not interested. Later he gave them to UK MI5 in the Baltics.

They passed them to the FBI who looked into him and spied on him and bugged his house and heard him tell his wife during an argument that he quit the KGB and stayed in US for their family.
The FBI questioned him and learned he was inactive. Let him go.

The Democrats have been infiltrated by communists from day one...I think Bezmenov is called a fraud because the timing is off and people want to think they and their fellow citizens aren't easily duped...the Socialist Labor Party rose in 1876...the Social Democratic Party of America in 1898...the Socialist Party of America in 1901...lots of offshoots and lots of efforts focused on unions and Marxist indoctrination and pamphleteering...folks like Eugene Debs, Robert M. La Follette, Norman Mattoon Thomas et al...after Lenin's revolution many of these waned and the left-wing (ha) faction of the SPA was invited by Lenin to join ComIntern and CPUSA was formed in 1919 and dominated the socialist movement, the old SPA hung around up until the Soviets rolled tanks into Hungary then it waned, had offshoots trying to destigmatize (de-Sovietize) socialism...some got took over by the hippies (SDA etc)...in CPUSA well know leaders like Earl Browder did not hide their ComIntern ties and affiliation with Soviet agents...and they briefly took hits in the peak of the Red Menace...lingered and waned after the Soviet collapse, but never completely disappeared...around 2000 they were relegated to largely cheering on leftist Dems running in races...they are now just another barely noticed screeching leftist...the point being, socialists of all stripes been around a long damn time and sadly never eradicated...

Oddly enough, it was old SPA "moderate" (snort!) who knew what the path to socialism was...after all it has been working through unions and politics for many years and many administrations of that party had known socialists in various posts...and while many (on the left) deny Normal Mattoon Thomas made this statement:

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."

All know (as did William Buckley) he made this one, which is very similar: "The Socialist Party will no longer be running a candidate for president. The Democratic Party is leading this country to Socialism much faster than we could ever hope to."

So, Bezmenov is likely right on ideology taught...the contagion was planted...and flourished in the Democrat Party and the little leftist offshoots of historical socialism...

Nice history. The movie Reds (1980) features the squabbling of various US socialist parties trying to get recognition from the commintern.  If it did not look stupid enough Diane Keaton makes it clear how stupid it was. ".... Right Jack." My favorite movie.

I think the so called "Frankfurt school" was a big cause of subverting America.

Robert M. La Follette? A HS in Madison WI is named after him. Decades later some distant shirt tailed relative gas station owner came close to winning a race for political office because he differed from the politician by only the middle initial.

BTW economist Michael Hudson's father was imprisoned for sedition for leading the Minneapolis general strike.
He is worth paying attention to. If you want to spend an hour some time....

There were a lot of damned socialists in MN...they like to talk about protecting the worker from the exploitation of tycoons...but they had no problem exploiting the worker to advance their own cause by spreading their contagion and extorting some of the sweat off their brow!

But, maybe on a binge...sometime later...

Saw it.  It was good.

P.S.  It's only six episodes.  (That's the "modern" tv series now; forget 20-22 episodes)  Hardly a binge.

Binge as in I only want to pay for that for a month and drop it...lump in whatever else might be worth a damn to check out...then let another year or two go by before considering it again...

Sounds like my type of show. I'm not sure if it's just me with ADD or show writers, but when it comes to a "series", I lose interest after 2-3 seasons.

Not sure where to post this.
I am a huge fan of Kim Iversen and have been for years. She can think for herself. I also like Max Blumenthal although disagree with him on many issues. Both show that people who ID as progressive are not always stupid and dishonest. Neither fell for Russiagate, some of covid, and some other stupid issues liked forced vaccinations.

Max does a Fauci imitation at 11 min in. Funny.
Up to maybe 15 min they talk about Kim leaving the Hill Rising and why. They would not let her on the recent interview of Fauci.
Then they talk about covid and related issues.

The intellectual energy level with these two on was impressive to me.
They kinda talk about the Dem group think and mass hysteria on some issues.
Kim recently got married and said some family would not come to her wedding because she said vaccines did not stop the spread and they believed she was killing people! Seriously. She says this and scary thinking at 42 min.

45 min. Kim said she was anti lockdown because it screwed workers and shifted wealth to the wealthy. Most of her left friends hated her for this.

She leaves the segment around 1 hour 40 min.

The WHO changed the definition of vaccine 3 times recently?
She said there was an 8 hour FDA meeting she watched 3 times??? She does work hard.

Max noted that the covidian cult lost interest after Ukraine and Roe became "the current thing." :lolh:
34 min in Max plays the segment where Kim slams Ryan down with facts on the Duke covid spread almost all among the vaccinated. 8 cases unvaxxed out of 345 total covid cases.

They both laugh at the thinking of the vaxx cult and how they viewed unvaxxed Kim who got covid but worked remotely after a couple days.
