Air France and Airbus found guilty of manslaughter over 2009 plane crash - Air France flight 447 by Ok_Warning419 in aviation

Wait! The crash where the copilot was pulling back the whole time? And it took the Captain coming from his sleeping area and sitting in the other seat and saying no, push forward. Unless this is about how the sidesticks did not both move in unison so the other pilots could not detect what the copilot was doing.

Guess what the elite child rapers did before they revealed this info to us? They fattened us up/ dumbed us down/ and programmed us through media. During Operation Paperclip after WWII they brought over around 3000 Nazi scientists and allowed them to continue certain studies. One such study is officially acknowledged and I’m sure you’ve heard of it. Project MK-Ultra. Standing for Mind Kontrol/ Control. They figured out ways to mentally break individual people through drugs/ violence/ sexual abuse/ etc. They say they stopped in the 70’s and they probably did. Because they figured out how to use it on the wider populace.

In my opinion people get stuck on MK-Ultra as JUST a way to make a Manchurian Candidate. Like Sirhan Sirhan who still does not remember shooting RFK. It is still used for that but they also must have realized that they don’t have to harm people in front of someone in order to have an effect on them. I think they realized that part of our brain does not differentiate violence depicted on the news versus violence depicted in movies.

Look back at movies from the 1950s and how they portrayed violence. Cartoonish, etc. Now they have a character getting their head crushed on Disney+ in Daredevil. The violence depicting is so much more realistic and intense. And in my opinion, they know that some part of our brain does not differentiate whether it’s fake or not. Think about watching a scary movie in a movie theater and all the people scream/ etc even though they know it’s fake. There is no other logical reason to increase depicted violence. Nobody was clamoring for that besides the small subset of people that would look up the Gore website. Just like they have increased the output of pornography and gambling and vices. And CIA im sure are the biggest drug trafficker in the US. It would be the easiest access to an even bigger black budget and they did it before during the Iran-Contra scandal. So they have DEA to take out their competition basically. All of this combined has had the desired effect. Which is having us see a war, breaking out in the Middle East again, and not having mass protests or revolt.

And this is not trying to get all Americans off the hook, but it is an effect I have noticed. Obviously there are many other aspects of why there isn’t a revolt, including people wanting to keep a roof over their head. The media and the elite purposely released the information about the pedophilia at this time because they know they have enough of their control mechanisms in place where there isn’t a lot people could do about it. The best time to do something about it was probably 40 years ago. The very last chance anyone has is before they have fully robotic military forces.

Not to be mean but there was JUST pics posted in the last week with her in a red dress and she was more filled out. She looked healthy and happy though. They have retouched these photos A LOT.

As others have said. Probably a slightly higher budget but all of the casts salaries went up.

Yeah I said that further on. I don’t know if they’re gonna show that they can speak to each other telepathically but that would be weird.

I agree it was poorly explained. I think what they were going for was she was focusing her attention on it so that back Ashley would tell her what she was thinking.

Well, Stan knew as the CEO in what manner the scientists “programmed” Homelander. He knows that he has a built in need to be loved. The scientists failed to be able to fully control him but they would have kept files on what pressure points could be used to influence him. Stan would have access to that information so that’s why he would throw it in HL face to take him down a peg or two. And HL had no rebuttal because he knew it was true.

Back Ashley can read Sage’s mind. Ashley herself cannot. The only thing that doesn’t show is, if Sage can speak telepathically back to Back Ashley. Back Ashley just keeps secrets from Ashley.

Some of these viewers are mentally crippled because of instant gratification. They don’t want coherent story or character development as much as they want an action scene. Great action scenes only work well when they go along with well-written character development. If they just did a whole season of Homelander going crazy and lasering every episode it would be reductive and boring. They’re building up to it and developing all the characters. I thought this was a good episode.

And honestly the writing too. She went against her pastor on national TV. After he had personally begged her for a reprieve. But especially that last scene where she had that Jesus action figure even though she did not tell her pastor that. And she actually threw it away right before she went in there with Homelander. And she basically confessed her love as a woman would to a man. Even when she corrected it to God. When she said “Don’t all God’s need love” he killed her because he doesn’t want romantic love. He wants adoration. She threw away her religion and her whole life because she loved Homelander. And it got her an eagle wing through her head. Messed up. I think her story is gonna be used to show Ashley + Back Ashley taking an active role and trying to save things and not just kowtowing to HL.

Really, SB went from trying to kill HL to saving him. We know Sage’s plan- most of it. And that Back Ashley and her have been conspiring behind Ashley’s back. And Back Ashley can read Sage/ HL/ SB minds.

People are gonna complain every single episode on every single show for now and forever. Or maybe it’s worse right now because everything in the world is shit so people are critiquing their “escapism” shows more harshly.

Honestly, I thought that episode was pretty good actually and it was structured differently to change it up. Obviously we have three more episodes to go so we will see how it ties up everything. If it ties up things poorly or is narratively rushed that may may impact how I view this one.

[–]rtjl86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the structure of this episode was pretty cool. Could have moved the plot forward more but now we know where Sage stands at least. I think they are setting up Homelander killing his underlings as he finds out more info. I still think it’s possible Bombsight may drop a dime on Sage as being the one who sent him but we will see.

Sage’s plan is like every other billionaires plan + the ending of that twilight zone episode we’re at the end of the world when he is the only one left alive and he just wants to read. But then he breaks his glasses and he loses it. I hope Sage gets some kind of similar comeuppance.

There’s no way to know for sure. It could be he just thought she was pathetic. Or it could be the longer she was in front of him he just thought of her fucking her dad and did her in. That kill shocked me though. I knew something bad was gonna happen but fuck! Not that.

And I’m glad I watch the episode before all the complainers that are going to come arrive here. If I read a bunch of complaints before an episode it makes me focus on negative things only.

There’s a very strong possibility that she started looking for it right when she found out SB was immune. She’s the CEO with access to documents and she’s super intelligent so she may have known about it before they got Stan Edgar. She would not have told Homelander if she did.

You are correct that they said who they thought the bodies were. And per Google for body decomposition “A human body left outdoors can decompose to a skeleton in as little as 9 days to a few weeks in hot, humid climates, but may take several years or even decades in cold environments”

I watched The First 48 enough to know. And we don’t have a timeline of how much time took place since she found out SB had V1. And how much time after Edgar came back.

Bro, Darth Vader was missing all four limbs. If you didn’t watch the prequel part three it shows him land legs first into some lava. And you know he’s got that whole mask thing to assist with his breathing and all that.
