Black &
White Black Bag was essential for those of us brought up on DC Thomson. I still think Viz is brilliant in concept & execution. Never having seen 'Grassy Knollington - Conspiracy Theorist' before I am impressed with the work that goes into making the cartoon - not just the 'Dirk Gently' interconnectedness of everything (it requires a lateral mind to readily come up with that stuff) but also with the plethora of interwoven authentic conspiracy facts & factoids. Grassy shows how you can easily create false connections to hide or ridicule true ones. Who in the UK under
age 60 has not absorbed the Viz meme and ridicule of the 'ideal' family
lifestyle portrayed by DC Thomson's benign characters? Viz was and is a
HUGE influence on UK counter-culture IMO. Sacred cows taken to task - who
can resist a smirk at that? Pomposity gets it's comeuppance! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Viz_comic_strips Reading thru the
marvellous list of spoof characters we find much amusing reference to sex,
anal fixation, and Christianity. One cartoon even manages to combine all
of these.... Reverend
Ramsden's Ringpiece Cathedral – a vicar with a church up his bottom So far I have read,
or read the synopsis of, four Grassy stories http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grassy_Knollington (Go to second archive page) and two posted on
the www.nineeleven.co.uk forum No mention of the
Rothschilds so far. Which got me
thinking. Viz is part of the Media. The media is controlled. A little more
Googling brought up Ooops. It’s a ‘White Supremacist’ site. Why do I feel a tinge of shame? Should I? From the thread I learn... "I'm
currently reading 'Rude Kids - the unfeasible story of Viz' by Chris
Donald, the founding editor. It's just been published and it's very funny.
I recommend it!In it, he says they once did a cartoon called The Milky Bar
Yid, but their publisher vetoed it because his wife was jewish. :D" And
that’s
how it’s done, you see. A filter is applied to all Main Stream Media
that lets thru filth but holds back truth. A kind of ‘reverse’
parental control... First
post in this thread tells it like it was…. …and still is.
Don't take my word for anything. Belief is the enemy of truth. dB |
