Hollyweird - Will Smith & Chris Rock Incident Staged?

[scotslad]

So Will Smith Smacked Chris Rock at the Oscars.

9QG_R0LS9Hs

Now, forgive me, a comedian gets paid to roast celebrities and egos in the room at a live tv event, and even will smith laughed at the joke initially, but a few questions arise...

1. He has a friendship with Chris Rock and knows what he is like
2. He himself laughed at the joke, but then.....Slap.
3. Two F Bombs were dropped By Will Smith

Now in addition to global news headlines dominations around the globe above the war in the Ukraine etc etc Chris Rock has generated another $1m+ of sales of tickets for his upcoming tour.

Was Will Smith's career at an all time high or was it getting a little stale at 53 and like his marriage needed a little excitement?

Or was the jokes about his extra marital affairs already raised by another celebrity quip earlier in the evening the real tipping point?

He appeared to be on edge, but most importantly it appears to me that if you watch the video slowly, Chris Rock actually appears to be moving away from the upcoming slap before it comes.

Jury's out.

Will smith made reference in his acceptance speech to being dissed and disrespected, but...

It all happened at a LIVE Tv event beamed across the globe and he committed assault, and even if Chris Rock doesnt want to press charges - will LAPD?

Harvey Weinstein and Roman Polanski were "punished" by the academy, but will Smith? (pun intended)

Are there any losers? Maybe. Maybe not.

Chris rock didn't apparently know about Jada's alopecia, yet did a show about Black Women's hair not too long ago and is apparently a close friend of the family?

hmmmm.

Regardless of Oscar nominees and awards, perhaps the only winner was the fact that
the condition of Alopecia is now raised and in the consciousness of the minds of millions - that perhaps is good thing.

Was it staged?
Was a comedian wrong to be abused on stage?
Was Will Smith wrongly reacting to quips about his affairs (to the wrong person)?
Was Will Smith reacting in reacting to his wife suffering more perceived embarrassment...or was it him and his ego feeling bruised on his BIG night?

I'm really not sure, but it will be interesting if having broken rules, regulations, codes of conduct, by laws and perhaps the laws of the state what the implications and punishment will be, if any?

Whilst being used to winning all the time, I think the williams sisters and their father were the losers on this occasion.

Some people feel it was all discussed with the academy to get maximum spotlight on the awareness of the awards, but I think it was a shame that whilst everyone was whispering and talking about what just happened, the other people getting the recognition they deserved was completely overshadowed.

What do you think? What do you think the consequences for will smith will be or should be or do you care?

This thread also has some feedback on the slap.

This was staged. Smith did not hit Rock. That is one reason why Rock declined to press charges. False charges can get you into a heap of deep. Just ask Jussie Smollett.

Remember, these people are actors. So, what do they do? Act... Their industry is sinking and this put the focus on them for awhile.

[Blastolabs]

It was staged.

Strange the media is acting like it was real, but not all that surprising

A new low.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

The only thing that makes me think it possibly wasn't staged, is Smith's initial reaction to the joke: a wry chuckle. If the whole thing were scripted, I'd expect Smith to be immediately incensed by the joke, and proceed on stage to perform the 'slap'. That's how a scripted scene would unfold. But it didn't happen that way. Smith wasn't initially incensed at all. Only upon registering his wife's apparent offence did he react. And that's organic behaviour. I can't see why they would set it up this way, especially as the camera didn't capture the transition from Smith being relaxed to enraged. A script would demand this was on screen.

Just saying is all... this occurred to me. Also a staged event that actually makes a mockery of the Oscars and brings Will Smith's name into serious disrepute is totally self-defeating. It's certainly done nothing to enhance the prestige of the Academy. It was a laughing stock already, now it's a train wreck. And maybe that's where Will Smith's career is heading now too. If this was a staged event it doesn't make much sense.

Smith did not strike Rock. He, Smith, may have gone up there with the intention to do so (and changed his mind) and he may have genuinely had the emotional reaction he displayed after he left the stage, but he did not strike Rock.

The incident is now being played for maximum affect by those who can benefit from it. Smith is probably not a beneficiary.

This is, of course, my opinion for what it’s worth—which ain’t much.

[Patient]

Now if Will Smith is allowed to get away with that, keep his award and continue on as normal - what happens to the next person that does this?

Perhaps it is part of the big psi-op and now encourages people to disregard respect and honour in a formal gathering. Encouraging chaos to occur as a means to help bring in more restraining laws, martial law, etc.

[Blastolabs]

The whole thing was staged


You can't arrest someone for fake slapping someone.

It did look like there was contact but Chris Rock leaned into the slap and had his hands behind his back, he clearly new it was coming.

[O Donna]

Any show (stage) is, at least in part, meant to distract from consequential activity happening elsewhere.

What's interesting across most media outlets is an overwhelmingly portrayal of this 'event' as REAL in regards to live/ streaming broadcast. As if, it is as real as the tragic events occurring on the opposite side of this world. (A new low as Bluegreen pointed out)

Media outlets/ Hollywood have a stake in portraying reality, and consequently diversion, as they define it for 'you'.

If there is ever a critical mass realization regarding organized manipulative/ persuasive agenda directed at the general populous......man!....that would be a truly :popcorn: worthy, history making event.

I think the biggest fear for Hollywood is to be seen as children that put on an impromptu show at a family gathering.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Smith did not strike Rock.

Maybe not, I don't know. Hard to tell for sure from the one available angle. But the 'boofff' sound of the slap was what Chris Rock's lapel mic picked up, and it sure sounds like an impact of some kind took place. There's no stamp of the foot to sell the blow, as with a stage punch for example - so the sound had to come from somewhere. Again I really don't know, just spitballin'.

Absolutely. for me Chris Rock made no attempt to touch his face after this apparent stinging slap

[melissanederland]

I think it was staged because the show was sponsored by Phizer and they are working on this drug - https://www.pfizer.com/news/press-release/press-release-detail/pfizer-announces-positive-top-line-results-phase-2b3-trial

[jaybee]

What do you think?


I don't think it was staged in fact I would go as far as to say I'm 100% sure it wasn't - I think it was a genuine crazy violent incident on World Wide display making a mockery of Hollywood, just like it deserves - the slap followed by the award and the mad speech complete with tears - oh my what a treat to come out of nowhere lol - I confess I'm enjoying the whole thing - Will Smith making a complete (hypocritical) idiot of himself and in the wake of that making Hollywood look just mind bogglingly ridiculous... so many angles to it all regarding the details...

The hero of the hour was Chris Rock... who though stunned by what happened kept his cool and managed to carry on - the show must go on kind of thing - had he not been so professional it could have turned into a slanging match or even a brawl...

So that's what I think... :)

Will Smith Says “Called By God” To Slap Chris Rock

[Le Chat]

Staged or not, it's normalising violence....

[Brigantia]

I'm inclining towards a staged incident, the question is why. Maybe because the Oscar ceremony is boring, fewer people bother to watch it and they needed to drum up attention to it with a scandal.

[DNA]

This was staged.
I agree with several of the posters who have already said this.

We live in a world where the coin of the land is outrage.
There is coin in being offended.
Just talk to friends and relatives about their work place experiences.

No one can talk any more.
People are deathly afraid of A. actually offending someone or B. giving a drama bully ammunition, so they can twist your words out of context, so they can play the outraged victiim and validate with your words in a slightly different context a theatre piece where they are the star and the victim. Outrage means you are always right and when you, the accused, when you try and reframe the situation in the correct context you are still guilty because you opened your mouth and uttered words capable of being twisted.

This action by Will Smith, this performance is going to further embolden the woke politics and more specifically the woke drama thesbians who have been encouraged by the attention they can demand through character assassination, bullying etc.

The end result is that people are scared to death to talk in the work place for fear of going to the dreaded HR for a talk that could mean they are getting fired.

This act will embolden the outage bullies.
This act will further silence casual conversation and communication at the work place.

It's hard to red pill anyone when you're going to be called to HR over it.

[JackMcThorn]

This video clip reminds me of a joke.

So there is this professor telling his class there is no God. He shouts, 'If there is a God, then strike me down.'

... and nothing happens.

So then this one guy, a Marine slowly walks down to the professor and knocks him right out onto the floor.

"God was busy, so he sent me."

[TargeT]

well, they definitely got attention (which I think was the point)...

"At the Oscars this year, Will Smith slapped Chris Rock in the face after he made a bald joke about Will Smith's wife Jada. Was this real or staged?"

( I think it was done not only for Hollywood ratings, but as a distraction from genuine issues.
Hollywood is a big, ongoing distraction, constantly blurring the lines between reality and the version of reality we are being programmed to accept, but with the laptop looming, they needed something with a bit of extra punch, if you'll pardon the pun...)

Irrespective of whether spontaneous or staged, Mr Smith was attending this event not as a firefighter or medical practitioner about to get an award, but as a performer. He is also, necessarily, always well aware of his surroundings, in this case, on stage. Also keep in mind that both of these individuals are very skilled and experienced at pretending.

Celeb Comedians Respond To Will Smith’s Unhinged Attack On Chris Rock:

[Bill Ryan]

No, it was real. There's not a single person in Hollywood who's said that it wasn't.
Chris Rock is an a**hole. (And always has been.)
I'm with Will Smith. And with traditional masculine values, which are rapidly becoming extinct. No milquetoast soyboy would have had the courage to do that in public.

(But of course, someone could easily get canceled for saying all that)

[Patient]

Hmmm, well this still needs to be officially verified, but...

Pfizer sponsored the oscars.

Pfizer is in stage 3 of an anti-alopecia drug (cure, treatment or vaccine - not sure).

So I suppose Will and Chris have already been paid.

Is this satire Bill, or is it real? Is this an act, or is it fact?Well, let's look at it this way.

Chris Rock will never make a cheap, unfunny, snide "joke" about someone else's wife, who's been sick for four years which is why she hasn't got any hair, in public before a huge TV audience, ever again. And I'd say that's a win. :)

Sometimes, when someone you care about is insulted before a huge audience, the honorable thing to do isn't just to smile awkwardly and look at the floor and hope the moment just passes. There's no honesty, or courage, or integrity, or loyalty, in that.

[Tigger]

If it’s real, Will Smith is nothing more than a thug. Full stop. It’s assault, and a demonstration of a complete lack of self-control. Doesn’t matter that someone made a joke about his wife; it gives NOBODY the right to just slug someone on stage like a petty thug. Why he wasn’t immediately thrown out of the venue in disgrace is beyond me.

If it’s staged, Will Smith and Chris Rock are complicit in a shameless attempt to gain attention and/or create a diversion (for whatever reason). Either way, it demonstrates just how sick and depraved Hollywood really is, and just how much real trouble the Western world is in right now.

I mean, seriously? The western world is falling apart, the entire world is on the brink of complete slavery, China is advancing across the Pacific, and the people are still hypnotised by the bright lights and fake news. That’s why the sleeping masses are even giving fuel to this meaningless debate about movie stars. Get perspective.

[onawah]

It wouldn't be surprising if no one in Hollywood would say that it wasn't real, not because it wasn't real, but because they know full well the price they would pay for saying so.
These are very dangerous times for truth speakers, and that has escalated hugely even just since the last Oscars.

I haven't posted on this forum in two years and I rarely lurk here but I came tonight to see if anyone's honored Jordan Maxwell's passing and apparently not.

I shouldn't be surprised at what Bill Ryan posted here because it goes along with the very event that he commented on. I'll just say a few things.
One, most people in Hollywood are assholes.
Two, you think "traditional masculine values" are assaulting someone for telling a joke about your wife? And a tame (some even said complimentary) one at that?

And you double down on it. "Chris Rock will never make a cheap, unfunny, snide "joke" about someone else's wife..." So it's honest, courageous and integrity to attack a comedian onstage for a joke he's told--even, yes, if it's crass or unfeeling. I find that point of view astonishing.

In light of world events it's a shadow, but a dark one. And the head of this forum is applauding it. RIP Jordan Maxwell.

Hello again--and goodbye.

[TargeT]

for clarification... do NOT fall for the "pad on the cheek" BS... first off, anyone that's ever gotten in a fight would be able to tell you that those pics going around of the "pad" are just stupid... nothing that small would ever matter in a striking incident (I smell easily disproven... )

secondly.. the body mass difference between the two individuals was significant, C rock is 5'10 and 165lb... W Smith is 6'2 and 200 lbs...

this situation was staged.

Text is one of the worst ways to genuinely express ideas, I feel you have drastically misjudged what was attempted to be said here... (though, as I've said text is not the best avenue for unadulterated expression... so I am welcome to correction).

Regardless, the best methodology I've found is to be very open minded when interpreting thoughts conved via text... as we are honestly missing nearly 80% of the communication. (to be short, I think a re-evaluation is due in this instance. )


Well, let's look at it this way.

Chris Rock will never make a cheap, unfunny, snide "joke" about someone else's wife, who's been sick for four years which is why she hasn't got any hair, .

I think you should look up what "alopecia" (https://www.aafp.org/afp/2003/0301/p1007.html) is and how it's basically what happens to 50%+ of men, but is socially unacceptable when it (rarely) happens to women .... also how this type of shallowness exacerbates stereotypes. (just as an aside from the (IMO) clear attention seekng behavior)

[Eva2]

Not sure what to think but did feel a general disinterest with the Hollywood lifestyle - interest in the celebrity culture seems to be definitely waning as people's values and focus are undergoing a major upheaval (in a good way I think) - perhaps this is also a way to garner interest in a way of life that is in its death throes. Still, I personally don't see this as a staged event but a genuine, not thought through, spontaneous reaction from someone reacting to an off colour joke at the expense of someone important to him.

Sometimes, when someone you care about is insulted before a huge audience, the honorable thing to do isn't just to smile awkwardly and look at the floor and hope the moment just passes. There's no honesty, or courage, or integrity, or loyalty, in that.

Bill, it's been years since I've logged in to post, but felt compelled to in this case. Agree 100% in this statement. The problem is what is then more honorable thing to do. Whether this is real or not... Retaliation with violence no matter how big or small because of a perceived verbal insult is never the honorable thing to do. First, I would say in this case it is actually the weak and insecure thing to do, particularly given the size difference between the two men and the obvious lack of fighting threat presented by Chris. This is even more so because it IS in public, defending an ego that appears fragile for whatever reason. Second, justifying retaliation in such a way because of a verbal insult is such a subjective thing, where does it stop? It is not unthinkable to go down the imaginary rabbit hole with this and envision jail time for socially unacceptable verbal insults. I want to live in a society where freedom of speech, particularly freedom to insult without threat of physical harm, is considered sacred
Third, I suspect ones opinion may be affected here if they have children. As a father, I would never want my children to think this was an honorable way or responding to this insult. I would hope I am able to instill enough values and critical thinking in my children to come up with a better, less insecure reaction.

I could go on and on. This is coming from someone that is the prototypical masculine macho guy, having trained in MMA for most of my life at this point (the only activity I remain truly passionate about) and who grew up in an environment that was hyper aggressive among peers and can be described as a sort of survival of the fittest. One look at me and everyone just knows - tall, fit, thick neck, cauliflower ears, etc.... I NEVER get insulted, nor does anyone associating with me. I have learned to value more skillful and less insecure ways is handling methods in a traditionally masculine role, something I inherently lack and have been working on diligently, particularly since I became a father and hope to remain a good role model to my children.

[mokosh]

And where is the wife in all this? Is she leaning back and watched it happening? Weak!
If man and women are equal why didn't she stand up and told Chris she didn't like the joke. Was her ego that bruised? Don't make me laugh.

[scotslad]

Is Will Smith just a casualty in the great war against masculinity...

...or is he still struggling with the fact that his wife slept with his son's friend...?

Bill I love you but I've known for years the biggest chink in your armor is your chivalry.
I understand giving a nod one direction or another but to say 100% this isn't fabricated is well it's naive.
I love you bro.
I do.
But you have one area where your judgement is weak.
You have an antiquated version of chivalry you are still adhereing to.
Giving Constance the reigns a couple of years ago after the Laughlin conference, that was a mistake.
You had the mods walk out in a show of solidarity as a statement against her controlling the forum.
The Gracy Fred thing.
Fred knew how to play you by putting a pretty face on an Avatar.
I saw this from the side lines, I didn't know Gracy was a guy but I knew it wasn't a real person, I knew it was a false persona playing a sock puppet account. In truth I thought it was an alphabet agency playing on the forum. I'm still not sure that isn't what it was.
But let me state this.
Multiple times Bill that I've seen you make the wrong call because it's antiquated views on male female relationships.
I love you Bill.
I do.
But times have changed.
Women for the most part have more power and say than men do. They don't need protecting.
I love you Bill.
I've wanted to do this for a while.
This thread, your post and the pint of wild turkey in me have coalesced for this post.
Please forgive me.
It's your forum.
You have done so much good.
You can continue as you are and you have done 100x more good than any of us wanna bees, but, well I'm just throwing this out there.

I love you Bill.
Take care.

Great joke Jack, and more pertinent then most WILL realise ;-). Best to remember that God always gets the last laugh...

At a ceremony where HUmans celebrate the best fakers (*Fakirs?) with a GOLDen IDOL (2nd Commandment anyone?) WILL I AM SMITH The EGO that *SMITES out of imagined or perceived pain, CHRISTOPHER (*Bearer of Christ) ROCK (Mathew 16:18 "Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means ‘rock’), and upon this rock I will build my church") and is subsequently awarded the TOP GOLDen idol and receives a standing ovation, while claiming to be a protector and vessel of God and love.

Chris responds with humility and restraint, turning the other cheek, as it were.

The *wand of the holly wood attempting to boost ratings and cause divisiveness.

To be offended by words is a sign of weakness not strength. Be like the ROCK and the storms of illusion, disguised either as Words or Swords, will not only be unable to disturb your peace, but will help you to realise the punch line to the greatest joke of all.

In Love, Laughter and Light

*fakir, Arabic Faqīr (“poor”), originally, a mendicant dervish. In mystical usage, the word fakir refers to man's spiritual need for God, who alone is self-sufficient.


*What does name Smith mean?
Derived from the Anglo-Saxon smitan, meaning "to smite or strike,"

*The name Christopher is derived from the Greek word Christóforos, meaning “bearer of Christ.”

*In the hands of the magician, it becomes a magic wand. Ancient druids used holly for their wands, as holly is the whitest wood, considered sacred by the Greeks and Romans and magicians. The wood of the holly tree created the magic stick, and no wonder we have the magic of Hollywood today.

No offense to everyone and anyone but I had higher hopes than seeing a thread about this. Staged or not, you know the parasites that be never let a good opportunity for misdirection go to waste, and that's the real matter here. And what utterly banal and meaningless malarkey this particular distraction is, too.

Here's a good comment on the matter from a random Reddit thread.


I see this spectacle as part of the continuing series of pendulums. Those that are familiar with esoteric teachings may have some insight into the Hermetic principles of polarity, cause and effect and rhythm and also the freemasonic checkered floor, which can represent duality.

The media and social media present us with pendulums on a daily basis. As a pendulum swings, in order to maintain its energy, it requires a push. The pendulums set by the media machine are designed to capture your attention and your emotional energy. As you all know, there are quite a lot of these pendulums currently swinging. One that is losing energy is (cv19), one that is gaining energy (Ukraine and all that jazz) and tons of others like food shortages, economic collapse, hunter Biden etc, etc.

All of these things feed off our energy. Even JLB's post is unknowingly (hopefully), feeding the Will Smith pendulum, getting us to invest something of ourselves, our time, emotions, thoughts to perpetuate the story to a wider and wider audience. The pendulums are all the same. They take your energy and give nothing or very little in return. Pendulums rarely contain knowledge. They are parasitic. This one is no different.

It was an event, that was, most likely done on purpose. I actually don't care. People will invest themselves into reasons why and many of them have been discussed at length today on hundreds of subs and social media. But where we place our attention is important and our emotional investments can have a profound effect on our state of being.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Staged or not, it's normalising violence....

Between two black people though.

That does not adhere to their woke narrative. Not a bit. It reinforces the stereotype of black on black violence which wokeness is at pains to turn a blind eye to. If Smith had slapped a white comedian, I'd be far more inclined to believe it was indeed pure performance theatre symbolizing black power in front of the world.

If we're only using 'did he make contact or not' as the pretext for 'staged' or 'not staged' then there simply isn't enough evidence (images or footage) to decisively draw a conclusion. So you're left with ulterior designs to work with - the subtext, or implicit meaning behind it. Problem is, there doesn't appear to be one, not one that makes any sense. There is no narrative here that benefits Smith, the Oscars, political correctness, black struggles, or even the normalisation of violence.

Because the slap has been roundly deplored from almost every quarter. Were it staged, it would have been roundly praised. And that's the biggest clue of all - not the deed but the aftermath, and what is being said about it. In the presence of a scripted event, there is always a script for after the event too, one that backs up the event. That's how it works. That's how they propagate these narratives. Sans any after-script supporting Will Smith's actions almost totally guarantees there is no script, and never was. Rather than perpetuate the woke narrative, particularly its racial angle, Smith's actions (black on black violence) damages it.

That leads me to conclude (me at any rate - you can make up your own minds), that this was an unscheduled, unplanned, unscripted event.

[Mike]

This slap event requires quite a bit of context. I'll try to be as brief as possible.

Firstly, it was a real slap!:) What on earth would either of these guys gain by staging something so stupid?

I'm all for traditional masculine values. So I'm 100% with Bill there. If your wife is openly disrespected, I totally support and even encourage retaliation. A slap, a punch, you name it. It's not even optional, in my book. Has to be done. But it's not quite so simple in this Will Smith situation. On the surface he appears to be a symbol of masculine nobility, but if you dig a little deeper into this he's really symbolic of the emasculated male.

He's a symptom of the times...

To begin: if Smith were truly concerned about his wife's honor - and his! - he wouldn't have allowed her to talk him into an "open marriage". Of course there's no such thing as an open marriage really. A marriage, by definition, is an exclusive relationship between two people. Once one betrays that it's no longer a marriage. But I digress...

Jada Pinkett Smith had a sexual relationship with her son's friend (and marginally popular rapper) August Alsina. She declared this openly to the world on her podcast, and then further emasculated Smith by having him on the show to rub his face in it.

It's absolutely the most cringe-worthy thing you'll ever see. She takes no responsibility for it, and infamously refererred to the whole thing as an "entanglement". She made it sound as if she were just innocently walking down the road one day before unknowingly bumping into a spiderweb full of dicks. She needed "freedom", and felt "restricted" in the marriage. All euphemisms for 1) you're the reason I'm so unhappy and 2) I want to have sex with other men. Jada is no innocent damsel here. She's a manipulator. The Christians might even think of her as the classic "Jezebel".

And Will just sits there and nods his head at all this nonsense. He takes it. Offers no resistance at all. He comes off as the ultimate boot licker. He participates willingly in his own humiliation in a way that mystified many. It really must be seen to be believed. So ever since this podcast, he's been relentlessly labeled a "cuck", a "simp," and so forth. The ultimate bitch, basically.

So by the time we arrive at this slap event, he's at his wits end with all the public ridicule and embarrassment.

The slap is mostly the end result of his woeful mismanagement of his marriage.

You'll notice, when the joke is made by Rock - a very mild joke btw! - he laughs initially. He's perfectly okay with it. But then he notices Jada's displeasure and reacts because of it. He reacts because he has to, not necessarily because he wants to. His manhood has been called into question for so long that the situation now demands action.

My point is this:He wasn't defending his wife as much as he was his wounded pride, ego, and dwindling sense of manhood. And thats why I don't respect the slap. In almost any other circumstance, I would support it. He shoulda slapped the man who was having sex with his wife, and then he shoulda slapped himself for allowing it to happen. So the slap was several years too late and perpetrated on the wrong person, ultimately.

And we must ask ourselves: would Smith have slapped Jason Mamoa if he made that joke? Unlikely!:) Rock is 4 or 5 inches shorter and at least 50lbs lighter than Smith.

In my mind, you're sick if you have cancer, or aids, or M.S. If you have an autoimmune disorder and the worst thing that happens as a result of it is hairloss, then it's much more of an unfortunate situation than a sickness. Hair or no hair, Jada Pinckett is a great beauty and privileged beyond belief. I have a hard time feeling bad for her. Hair loss is nothing to sneeze at. My hairline starting drifting back when I was a young man and it was emotionally crippling. But you can clearly see a well defined shadow on her scalp. Her hair may not be what it once was, but it appears she has a full head of hair.

So Rock, to my way of thinking, did nothing wrong. It's his job to go in there and make jokes that poke holes in all the egos. It was a weak joke but not a terribly insulting one, whether he knew about the alopecia or not (and prevailing wisdom suggests he did not).

Smith, meanwhile, gave a bizarre, tearful speech full of very strange language after winning the Oscar. I think he's mentally and emotionally unraveling. His marriage is "fluid", his kids are "gender fluid", and so forth. It's a good case study for this sort of thing. Without boundaries or clearly defined roles people slowly go mad. And now he's the sackless king of a postmodern, woke castle.. with a Jezebel wife distorting his mind and emotions. I've always liked Smith and I wish him luck. Listen to him speak for just a few mins and you can tell he's a good, heart- centered man. But he's embraced this bizarro world stuff and now he's living with the consequences

[Mark]

That leads me to conclude (me at any rate - you can make up your own minds), that this was an unscheduled, unplanned, unscripted event.

Everything you said was on point.

Absolutely on point. Both of y'all broke it down like it needed to be done. I've looked at that slap about 20, 30 times and still can't tell if he actually made contact. His hand didn't slow down in the least, or change its downward trajectory, Rock almost appeared to duck it, but there is the sound that his mic catches that makes it seem as if there is contact. And, while Rock is a serviceable actor, I'm not sure if he's so good that his look of confusion and shock after wasn't the real thing. And he still hasn't said a word.

He's starting a world tour on Saturday, so we'll see what he says then.

Mark I'm eagerly awaiting that world tour!:) I think we're going to see an even more spectacularly brilliant Rock than we have in the past. Can't wait to see how he turns all this into comedy.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

Top post Mike, good to see you back. I agree with 99% of it - but I think he's more than just cucked by his Mrs. You have to question the quality of Will Smith's character from the allegations that have been swirling around him. Ugly allegations.

Take Orlando Brown's allegations for one. If you can decipher his words through the cursing you'll see what I mean. Think Charlie Sheen. This is bad stuff, not the sort of the stuff anyone just 'makes up'. It suggests Smith is a bad, bad man.

ufxhqIEQ5KQ

Impossible to know if anything he's saying really happened. But we know a good deal about Hollywood. It's a cesspool, and that cannot be disputed. If you're a member of that club, especially a high-ranking member like Smith, you are most definitely deep in that cesspool. And only one thing can live and thrive in a cesspool.

[Mark]

Mark I'm eagerly awaiting that world tour!:) I think we're going to see an even more spectacularly brilliant Rock than we have in the past. Can't wait to see how he turns all this into comedy.

It's going to be something, probably on the level of the work Dave Chapelle has been putting out lately. Hopefully he lays into not just what happened on stage, but how the media has been handling it and how people have jumped to take sides. He's usually pretty insightful in his comedy and this incident goes really, really deep, into a lot of things, that you mentioned and also that Mark mentioned, in regards not only to the media but also the black community and its split, between those y'all call Woke and the larger percentage of black folks in America, who are actually pretty conservative and believe in traditional family values. I don't expect him to analyze Will's issues with his masculinity, though. Will is apparently unhinged by being the butt of so many jokes since he and his wife agreed to go public with their marital wanderings (he hasn't named names, but he has been unfaithful also, right) and might go after him with a weapon if he does.

[Ba-ba-Ra]

It's always been said (behind the scenes) that Will is a closet gay. - and that Jada is his beard. Does she hold this secret over his head and therefore control him. Just saying. Perhaps it was his "pretend" masculinity that he was protecting.

I agree - he wasn't upset when the remark was made. He clearly laughed. She didn't.

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

He's starting a world tour on Saturday, so we'll see what he says then.

His opening line should be, "Is Will Smith in the house...? No? Thank f*** for that!"

Roger that, Mark:thumbsup:. Thanks for posting that. I've never seen or heard anything like it till now.

You've given me something to chew on here. I may have to update my thinking.

I suspect I'll be going down some rabbit holes here soon.

It may just be that Smith had no choice but to accept the open marriage. Perhaps his wife has some dirt on him. Just speculating here, for better or worse

She has some dirt on him, alright. Will has had those allegations swirling around him since he did that movie "Six Degrees of Seperation", early in his career, where he played a young, gay vagabond. That Orlando video is shocking. There are definitely some psychological issues at play on multiple levels, which is not strange for folks who were child actors in Hollywood and prey for the many sexual predators that surrounded them.

So Will is probably to some degree protected, by those who also engage in such evil. Or has been, perhaps we are witnessing the end of his protection period, much like Bill Cosby was allowed to do what he did for so long, until they let him go.

Considering all of this, which I'm certain that Chris Rock knows all about, I would not be at all surprised if he barely addresses it at all and takes the high ground, rather than delve into all that darkness and put a target on his own back by the rich and powerful predators who will surely be watching his every move at this point.

[Bluegreen]

I know at least some of the African-American community is embarrassed, as it is taking the gangbanger thugs' moronic Way of Life – Always Looking For & Finding Opportunity To Be Offended – to the national stage and sending that particular message to a (very) broad section of the public, as mentioned by Le Chat. Maybe all these Karens & Kens developed their delicate sensibilities and thin skins by listening to gangsta rap.

I've come across Orlando many times, he is seriously messed up in the head, and can be trusted to be untrustworthy.

[The Moss Trooper]

If Jada Pinkett-Smith can't take a joke about alopecia, that's hair loss!

[Mark (Star Mariner)]

One thing I think maybe happening here is that many of us are so used to sleight of hand - to lies, propaganda, and manipulation in the media and entertainment industry - that perhaps our default position is to expect deception, and see an artificial front behind which subversive agendas are hiding. No one can blame us for that, we're bombarded with them all the damn time. So perhaps when real, genuine events unfolds we have trouble believing it.

I had a few lingering doubts left that this was just more theatre, until I saw this video. Now I have no doubts at all. Absolutely none - this was unscripted and real. Very real.

This is a fascinating analysis by an expert in body language.

_Qo0SkwMPlY

What surprised me most was Smith's acceptance speech. Having a second look at this, there's no doubt his emotion is genuine, particularly when he says "doing what we do, you gotta be able to take abuse". The video gets into that around the 30minute mark. I don't believe Smith means 'to be the butt of jokes' when he spits that word "abuse". I see fury in his face when he says this, and shame.

Shame.

I do really believe Smith is, or was, the victim of abuse in his early career. How many actors and actresses are subjected to the same? I think many, sadly. I think abuse - and I mean sexual - gets you that membership card into their exclusive club. And once inside, you have license to act out and commit abuse yourself. Perhaps it's even encouraged. The classic abused/abuser cycle. And it does seem, in this speech, Smith is having some sort of epiphany. He's bearing his soul here and saying enough is enough. He even mentions God. Has Will Smith found the light?

This slap is far more than a distraction in my view, and far more than a man simply defending his wife. There's more going on here. A lot more. More, I think, than even Smith slapping Chris Rock which I think he did in place of hitting his wife who has humiliated him. Really, I think this is significant, maybe even important.

As Mark (above) says, maybe Smith's protection period is over. Maybe he now wants out of the club. Unfortunately, as the Eagle's sang years ago- "you check out any time you like, but you can never leave..."

*Will Smith did not commit suicide.*

I'm sure it was easy for Jada to justify sleeping with her son's friend after all the horrible debauchery she's participated in.
Will Smith and Jada are already involved in destroying traditional family roles.
In my opinion it's all scripted.
I think far less of Hollywood actors than most and I have a harder time attributing anything noble to their actions.

[scotslad]

I am intrigued tho....

Chris Rock stood with his hands behind his back appearing to wait for a "response" or the "reaction" from Smith.

Will Smith trained as a boxer and played the greatest boxer on earth - Ali (on film) after months of gruelling training. It's hard to believe that despite being so emtional and wound up why he issued a slap and not an upper cut.

I can't recall Rock putting his hand up to his face after the slap which I think would have been my reaction had I been slapped.

Whatever the truth, I think there's a lot more going on behind closed doors in the Smith household that was NOT showcased at the Oscars - he looks like a troubled man with the world on his shoulders - literally.

[TomKat]

If it’s real, Will Smith is nothing more than a thug. Full stop. It’s assault, and a demonstration of a complete lack of self-control. Doesn’t matter that someone made a joke about his wife; it gives NOBODY the right to just slug someone on stage like a petty thug. Why he wasn’t immediately thrown out of the venue in disgrace is beyond me.

If it’s staged, Will Smith and Chris Rock are complicit in a shameless attempt to gain attention and/or create a diversion (for whatever reason). Either way, it demonstrates just how sick and depraved Hollywood really is, and just how much real trouble the Western world is in right now.

I mean, seriously? The western world is falling apart, the entire world is on the brink of complete slavery, China is advancing across the Pacific, and the people are still hypnotised by the bright lights and fake news. That’s why the sleeping masses are even giving fuel to this meaningless debate about movie stars. Get perspective.

I applaud Will Smith for slapping that jerk.

"After I finished "transformation of america" I walked out of my house and felt like a strange man in a strange land. I felt like I knew something nobody else knew.....and at the time I wasnt sure that was a good thing. The world ceased to make sense. Sure, cars were still going up and down the road, the birds were chirping, the sun shining, but I felt as though these were merely props for a play. And I felt like a character in that play...a play that I had once embraced as real but was now realising wasn't. And yet, the play was the whole world, and there was no way to escape it.

It was akin to a bad acid trip, only I never snapped out of it. Ive been experiencing that trip ever since. It's made me question reality in ways that I sometimes regret. The whole blue pill, red pill thing...

I'm convinced this woman is telling the truth about her experiences...and that scares me. This isn't cute pillow talk about reptilians and the illuminatti by the campfire. This is a very real experience..and the ramifications are endlessly disturbing."

Hey Marcus, I agree with everything you said except the scripted part. We'll just have to agree to disagree on that one

I feel very strongly that it wasn't scripted. But I'm not married to the idea. If it turns out I'm wrong I'll happily return here and eat some crow.

I think deception has become our default position, and it's understandable..as Mark said. Having been deceived over and over again, is it any wonder that we think this event might be staged too?

Instead of looking for the most exotic explanation off the bat, I think we're better off starting simple and basic. That's my approach anyway.

I just haven't heard any good reasons yet for staging this sort if thing. Chris Rock was humiliated. Will Smith came off looking unhinged and emotionally unstable. While it's true that Hollywood can twist any event into a positive for whoever they're rooting for, neither of these two guys required any kind of publicity boost. They're both already wildly successful. Tops in their field.

So why take the risk???

It doesn't add up.

The Pfizer explanation is a pretty wild one, in my opinion. It's not that i don't think Pfizer is devious and evil, but this type of event seems highly unlikely to have been cooked up by Pfizer executives...and even more unlikely to have been agreed upon by two relatively sane, wildly successful entertainers.

And there you have it, if true. And it appears that it is. From Pfizer's own website:

"Pfizer Announces Positive Top-Line Results from Phase 2b/3 Trial of Ritlecitinib in Alopecia Areata
Wednesday, August 04, 2021 - 06:45am
– ALLEGRO 2b/3 trial met primary efficacy endpoint of improving scalp hair regrowth –
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) today announced positive top-line results from the Phase 2b/3 ALLEGRO trial evaluating oral once-daily ritlecitinib in patients with alopecia areata, an autoimmune disease driven by an immune attack on the hair follicles that causes hair loss on the scalp and can also affect the face and body.1,2 Ritlecitinib 50 mg and 30 mg achieved the primary efficacy endpoint of the study, namely the proportion of patients with less than or equal to 20 percent scalp hair loss after six months of treatment versus placebo.

“We are pleased by these positive results for ritlecitinib in patients with alopecia areata, a devastating and complex autoimmune disease for which there are currently no U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or European Medicines Agency approved treatments,” said Michael Corbo, PhD, Chief Development Officer, Inflammation & Immunology, Pfizer Global Product Development. “We look forward to bringing this potential new treatment option to patients living with alopecia areata as soon as possible.”

The Phase 2b/3 ALLEGRO trial met the primary efficacy endpoint of improving scalp hair regrowth. All participants entered the study with at least 50 percent scalp hair loss due to alopecia areata, as measured by the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score. A statistically significantly greater proportion of patients who took ritlecitinib 30 mg or 50 mg once-daily, with or without a four-week initial treatment of 200 mg once-daily, had 20 percent or less scalp hair loss (an absolute SALT score ≤20) after 24 weeks of treatment compared with placebo. This was followed by a 24-week extension period, during which all participants initially randomized to receive ritlecitinib continued on the same regimen, while participants who received placebo during the initial 24 weeks advanced to one of two regimens: 200 mg for four weeks followed by 50 mg for 20 weeks, or 50 mg for 24 weeks. The study also included a 10 mg dosing arm, which was assessed for dose-ranging and was not tested for statistically significant efficacy compared to placebo.

The safety profile seen with ritlecitinib was consistent with previous studies. Overall, the percentage of patients with adverse events (AEs), serious AEs and discontinuing due to AEs was similar across all treatment groups. The most common AEs seen in the study were nasopharyngitis, headache and upper respiratory tract infection. There were no major adverse cardiac events (MACE), deaths or opportunistic infections in the trial. Eight patients who were treated with ritlecitinib developed mild to moderate herpes zoster (shingles). There was one case of pulmonary embolism in the ritlecitinib 50 mg group, which was reported to have occurred on Day 169. There were two malignancies (both breast cancers) reported in the ritlecitinib 50 mg group, which were reported to have occurred on Day 68 and Day 195. Both participants were discontinued from the study.

Full results from this study will be submitted for future scientific publication and presentation. These data, together with data that will become available from ALLEGRO-LT, will form the basis for planned future regulatory filings.

Ritlecitinib is the first in a new investigational class of covalent kinase inhibitors that have high selectivity for Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) and members of the tyrosine kinase expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (TEC) kinase family. In laboratory studies, ritlecitinib has been shown to block the activity of signaling molecules and immune cells believed to contribute to loss of hair in people with alopecia areata.3

Ritlecitinib, which was granted Breakthrough Therapy designation from the U.S. FDA for the treatment of alopecia areata in September 2018, is also being evaluated for vitiligo, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis."
Etc...
Think it's coincidence? :thumbsdown::rolleyes::boom:
To add insult to injury, Alopecia has been significantly on the rise since the Plandemic began.

No, it was real. There's not a single person in Hollywood who's said that it wasn't.
Chris Rock is an a**hole. (And always has been.)
I'm with Will Smith. And with traditional masculine values, which are rapidly becoming extinct. No milquetoast soyboy would have had the courage to do that in public.

(But of course, someone could easily get canceled for saying all that)

Some speculate that this could be to normalise reasoning for increased security as further evils are exposed within Hollywood regarding celebrities and moguls. I have done acting, and my partner of 14 years did film school and acting as well. This 'incident' never looked real to me, it all looks very forced and scripted.

How Jada Pinkett is MANIPULATING Will Smith (8 min)




The Body Language Guy (https://www.youtube.com/c/thebodylanguageguy/videos): “…and the most important takeaway is that a sane person doesn't have that brutal change in behavior. In seconds, from diplomatically laughing at a lame joke, to going full slap contest on Chris Rock. And you know what? Narcissists love that!

They love to use gaslighting and other manipulation tactics to drive people to do this kind of outbursts. And they enjoy every second of that, because that's something that they caused. They used their emotional control on their partner and managed to make them snap.”

“…“It’s not comforting AT ALL that one ad lib line on Will's Oscar acceptance speech was, "You gotta be able to take abuse". And he was not talking about his character, Richard Williams, because he was very specific. "In this business".

Now, that sentence, "You gotta be able to take abuse”. That's plain WRONG. That absolutely sounds like a victim of abuse, that is referring to that mistreatment as a badge of courage. Like something that one should be proud of. And no, nobody should be 'able to take abuse’. That is a very telling slip.”

Victims of narcissistic abuse enter a stage where they feel like they have to constantly prove themselves. That they have to earn the scraps of love they get. Because they never know when the abuser is going to give them the silent treatment for the slightest 'offense', or use guilt tripping, or make them feel miserable in any way.

So, the victim learns to avoid those situations, proving their worth. It's that famous "If you really loved me, you would do this for me", or "You would let me do whatever I want, you would let me enjoy my life", or "If you love me, then prove it, because I don't believe you".

All those are gaslighting sentences, and no, they don't work overnight. Because the narcissist slowly erodes the victim's will, pun intended, until they enter that stage of emotional slavery.

But it’s so hard to understand why Jada had this reaction, if barely days before Oscars night, she uploaded a video to her TikTok where she said, explicitly, “This bald head of mine, I love it. I don't give two craps what people feel about this bald head of mine. Because guess what? I love it."

Again, I am not condoning jokes based on health struggles. That’s really bad taste. And it’s reported that Rock was not aware of her condition. But seriously, I really doubt that he didn’t know, but either way, jokes directed at physical appearance should also be a double no.

By the way, don't you find it odd that on Oscars night, Jada updated her Instagram with "Fingers crossed", but all the photos from that update were just... her?

" oral once-daily"

Sounds positively (and prolongedly) profitable!


it's a strange grouping of events regardless; my gut says to not trust what TV shows me, that metric has so far been a great default starting point. Henry W. never got this level of attention after decades of terrible behavior....

the only thing in the video that seemed to sell that it was real was W. Smith seemingly upset and yelling (kinda like... you know... acting?) I've been through a lot of physical confrontations. The "slap" in this situation looked over acted, the reaction ingenuine... it just didn't "feel" natural, it had that uncanny valley feel.

I've heard a lot of responses leaning to the authenticity of these actions, and they often mostly focus on the "story" of the event and don't overly analyze what the evidence provides.
"defending your wife" ... great narrative.... during an event that hosts the best writers in the industry
very cleverly leveraging past abnormal relationship buzz to amplify the situation?
letting W. Smith stay the whole rest of the show after?
I mean there's more (carreer velocity of those involved etc..)

its hard for me to see it as authentic

[palehorse]

If you want to make it looks like real, do it real for God's sake.

It was scripted, I have no doubt about that and the slap could be real or not, I guess we need another angle to be sure (maybe some dude in backstage will provide a new footage haha). They are actors and that is what they do for a living, they act.
An actor is a professional liar just like a politician.

In my 20's I engaged into theater for a little while, I did it not because I want to be an actor, but I wanted to have a better communication skills, and that was all for me, it worked for my end goals.

We learned how to hit, to slap the face, how to cry rivers, how to fake emotions, how to become someone (getting into the character), how to research, how to adjust the illumination in the stage, how to build a stage, how to write a script, and we even cleaned up the stage after using it and so on.. In theater unlike in TV or Cinema, you do things for real, if you have to slap someone in the face you just do it, if you have to crap on the stage you do it too, so there will be no doubt from the public watching that the entire act was real. This is what real theater is (which is becoming very rare thing), you do not fake like in front of cameras, you do it for real.

Anyone interested to know more about how fake acting world works (in front of cameras or not), I recommend take a deep dive into "Konstantin Sergeyevich Stanislavski" methods or system of training actors (rehearsal techniquies). One of his best works "An Actor's Work (1938)" highly recommended, in many school of arts.

In my time, I studied theater with Journalists, CEO of companies, and public speakers.. we were not actors per se, we were learning how to improve our communication skills to apply in our own field of work, and there is nothing better than theater in order to archive that, one of the best skills I learned with theater was to improvise instead of getting stuck.

Hi palehorse. I am nobody, but I found this funny. Don’t want to get personal here, so just meant as a general human quirkiness regarding masterclass in selling salesmanship. From what I think you’re saying, the Three Stooges were well positioned as far as movers and shakers irl lol. *struggles ...shuts mouth* ~8)

[Journeyman]

I want to pose a few questions for folks to consider. I think they're relevant to the question of whether this event was fake or not and more besides...


What is Hollywood?

What is a movie star?

I'll pop back later and give my own answers. Not professing any great wisdom on this, but my own understanding of these answers informs my view on this incident, so very interested in how others think!

I think Will Smith was acting to some degree. I think his actions were disingenuous. But not pre-planned.

Chris Rock does look like he's bracing for something. That's not necessarily proof that he knew what was coming. You could just as easily make the argument that he was bracing himself because he didn't know what was coming.

For those that think it was staged, it would be helpful if you explained why you think it was staged. Because that's important. There would have to be a pretty damn good reason for those 2 guys to participate in something like that, and I haven't heard it yet.

Try to imagine Pfizer executives flying Smith and Rock into company headquarters, sitting them down, and saying, "Fellas, you're gonna love this..." before laying out this utterly absurd plan. And then try to imagine Rock and Smith high-fiving afterwards and agreeing because...because why again??? You'd have to be mad to go thru with that.

Why would Smith and Rock risk it all for money they don't really need??? They're already wealthy beyond belief. It doesn't make any sense at all. You'd have to be really desperate to take a risk like that, and neither of them are.

I'd just like to hear one good reason why an event like that would be staged. I'm willing to listen and even consider something kind of outrageous, but it has to make sense.

America Calls For MORE Violence Against Comedians After Will Smith



Will Smith’s Oscar night assault on Chris Rock was much more than a simple physical confrontation between two celebrities – it also represented every stand-up comedian’s worst fear, that an enraged fan will storm the stage looking to exact revenge for a perceived slight or insult. Smith’s unhinged attack may well usher in an open season on comedians as comedy club attendees feel empowered to respond to jokes with violence.

Jimmy and American comedian Kurt Metzger discuss their experiences with violent audience members and the vulnerability experienced by anyone who performs on stage.

There’s talk that SOME people including Hollywood stars are now working with the “White Hats “ to wake people up. It’s a big movie production. They’ve agreed to do outlandish antics, even embarrass themselves to save their butts in hopes for a lighter sentence or as a lifesaving measure.

There’s no hope for the darkest of the dark bastards. That’s why it’s put pedal to the medal and take out as many as they can along the way. (war, the-jab, frequency weapons, starvation, tainted food, air, water, etc.)

I can see white hats enlisting Hollywood stars for help in waking people up, or maybe even ordering them to help as part of some leniency bargain. That makes sense.

I guess I just don't see how this slap event would assist in waking anyone up.

If I were a white hat, I might make a few evil actors embarrass themselves publicly as a punishment for this or that. That would appeal to my sense of the absurd. I could get used to that role:) "OK, go out there, and right before you present the award, strip naked, squawk like a bird and perform the worm until you're escorted out by security. "

If that's what the white hats are doing I'm all for it, but they need to get a little more creative! Lol

For Will Smith, if the allegations that he has been involved in the adrenochrome cult and/or participated in ritual child abuse and pedophilia, I get that. But why would Chris Rock be involved? He's not had those kinds of accusations made against him at any point in his career that I am aware of. But, in line with the potentiality, perhaps he agreed to the entire kerfuffle to help Will and Jada get those lighter sentences.

"If Bill Gates had Oprah's money he'd jump out the f#ckin window.":bigsmile:

He's brilliant. He disarms with the jokes and then hits hard with the brutal truths.

Wealth vs rich. I hadn't made the distinction. Like all the greats he makes you think a little deeper. I make the mistake sometimes of assuming everyone thinks like me. If I had a couple million dollars, I'd want for nothing..even if I lived to 200. Then again I'm a pretty simple dude.

I still think my original analysis is closest to the truth. I rewatched the Jada podcast with Will, and he's so weirdly agreeable that I'm sure now that he had to be. What's left out of all that is what I'm pretty sure are his indiscretions. If you assume them, and then rewatch the video, his behavior makes much more sense. Jada really and truly feels justified in her actions. And maybe she was. I think she felt perfectly entitled to do what she did because Will did what he did (although what he did is obviously unspoken).

The question is: what did he do??

Is he a closeted gay man? Or is it something sinister like you mentioned..the adrenochrome cult and things of that nature?

I recognized in him what I've done before myself. I think if you've lived long enough you'll be in a situation at some point where someone close to you knows embarrassing or maybe even dark things about you, and you're forced to be pliant and eagerly agreeable around them out of a fear of being exposed for this or that. That's what I saw in Will on that podcast. And I think it's partially responsible for his behavior on Oscar night. He got caught laughing at that joke. Didn't want to find himself facing Jada's wrath and so overreacted so as to make up for his initial reaction. Something like that.

House of mirrors. Nothing is as is seems. It is difficult for people that grew up in relatively normal household to imagine how much trauma, abuse and darkness happens behind closed doors. Lots of buckets of iced water are needed to break the spell of denial and the hidden. We’re programmed to default to bubble gum and rainbows. The art of timing…protect the innocence of the minds, bodies and souls.

Here's his quote about it all from the first show of his world tour last night:


I don't have a bunch of s*** about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I had like a whole show I wrote before this weekend. And I'm still kind of processing what happened, so at some point I'll talk about that s***. And it'll be serious and it'll be funny, but right now I'm going to tell some jokes.

So, he's put it off till potentially past his "Ego Death Tour", nice name for a show, btw, can't wait to see/hear it. Unless he's going to decide to address it directly and specifically with a special video or interview.

I think that's most of the world, for whom merely tens or a few hundreds of thousands of dollars would set us up for life. There's always the temptation of more and more, with those around you at that level pushing you to keep up with the Vanderbilts, Carnegies and Roosevelts and such folk if you want to get into the DUMBs and save yourself and your family from the future, right?

According to the majority of the rumors I've heard about him over the year, it's merely being closeted. I haven't heard of him being involved in anything involved adrenochrome, I just added that because someone earlier in the thread mentioned it as a possibility. Most I've heard of is Scientology association, I think he and Jada and the kids flirted with it for a while and the kids definitely have taken that foundation and gone full New Age with it.


I recognized in him what I've done before myself. I think if you've lived long enough you'll be in a situation at some point where someone close to you knows embarrassing or maybe even dark things about you, and you're forced to be pliant and eagerly agreeable around them out of a fear of being exposed for this or that.

Didn't want to find himself facing Jada's wrath and so overreacted so as to make up for his initial reaction. Something like that.

I agree. That is how he looked. So, Will is being controlled by his wife, which isn't the worst of all possible outcomes and quite normal in the world, and especially in black American culture, where the woman as head of household has enjoyed breadwinner privilege - due to her traditional closeness to white privilege (house access, Master access, etc.) - since slavery days. But the assurance with which Jada laid out her indiscretion and, as you say, Will's meekness, point to Jada's righteousness being firmly based in her holding the moral high ground. It's like Will, you bet not say a word, or else I'm comin' out with ALL the drama and, baby, you don't want that.

His previously all-american, almost inviolate status as a successful, relatively placid black man, a position once held by the Cos', would end even more precipitously than the trajectory of his current fall from grace.

I think she felt perfectly entitled to do what she did because Will did what he did (although what he did is obviously unspoken).

The question is: what did he do??

Is he a closeted gay man? Or is it something sinister like you mentioned..the adrenochrome cult and things of that nature?

According to the majority of the rumors I've heard about him over the years, it's merely being closeted. I haven't heard of him being involved in anything involved adrenochrome, I just added that because someone earlier in the thread mentioned it as a possibility. Most I've heard of is Scientology association, I think he and Jada and the kids flirted with it for a while and the kids definitely have taken that foundation and gone full New Age with it.


I recognized in him what I've done before myself. I think if you've lived long enough you'll be in a situation at some point where someone close to you knows embarrassing or maybe even dark things about you, and you're forced to be pliant and eagerly agreeable around them out of a fear of being exposed for this or that. That's what I saw in Will on that podcast. And I think it's partially responsible for his behavior on Oscar night. He got caught laughing at that joke. Didn't want to find himself facing Jada's wrath and so overreacted so as to make up for his initial reaction. Something like that.

I agree. That is how he looked. So, Will is being controlled by his wife, which isn't the worst of all possible outcomes and quite normal in the world, and especially in black American culture, where the woman as head of household has enjoyed breadwinner privilege - due to her traditional closeness to white privilege (house access, Master access, etc.) - since slavery days. But the assurance with which Jada laid out her indiscretion and, as you say, Will's meekness, point to Jada's righteousness being firmly based in her holding the moral high ground. It's like Will, you bet not say a word, or else I'm comin' out with ALL the drama and, baby, you don't want that.

His previously all-american, almost inviolate status as a successful, relatively placid black man, a position once held by the Cos', would end even more precipitously than the trajectory of his current fall from grace.

There’s talk that SOME people including Hollywood stars are now working with the “White Hats “ to wake people up. It’s a big movie production. They’ve agreed to do outlandish antics, even embarrass themselves to save their butts in hopes for a lighter sentence or as a lifesaving measure.

For Will Smith, if the allegations that he has been involved in the adrenochrome cult and/or participated in ritual child abuse and pedophilia, I get that. But why would Chris Rock be involved? He's not had those kinds of accusations made against him at any point in his career that I am aware of. But, in line with the potentiality, perhaps he agreed to the entire kerfuffle to help Will and Jada get those lighter sentences.

That’s a good point, Mark.
It’s possible Chris Rock took one for the team because he’s working with the “White Hats”.http://paula.avalonlibrary.net/smilies/clap.gif

Someone said previously that the best way to fake something is to do it for real, right? Especially if the plan is to lead to further exposure of hidden realities. Someone has to take the hit.

The entire incident remains mind-boggling. That Will Smith could lose it like this after all of these years of consistency and seeming adherence to higher spiritual principles seems senseless, as Mike puts it. Will's walk on to the stage was so deliberate, when he was walking away, the expression on his face, so set and determined. He didn't seem wildly out of control or even angry, to my viewing. He seemed like he'd done something that he knew was going to reverberate in, to us, some unknown way, but to him, possibly, in a way that would at some point result in his own, or Jada's, or both of their vindication.

At this point it feels a bit like over-analysis, especially if it was merely a simple case of a man losing his temper and mind and crashing a career and his good name. But if there is more to it, then there is more coming.

[Mike]

Mark when I saw Jada on Oscar night in that elaborate dress, with the shaved head and the impossibly angular jawline, there was something very "evil queen" about it all. I was reminded of Angelina Jolie's character in the movie 'Malficent', but even more intimidating. Had she walked up behind me and whispered "boo" I'd probably go running for the hills:)

When Rock made the joke, her eyes became daggers. I was trying to place the look, and I finally remembered what it reminded me of: there's a part in the movie 'Apocalyoto' just before one of the captured Mayas gets decapitated, where a regal female makes an uncannily similar expression. It's one of disgust and extreme displeasure. Jada, with the shaved head and the dress reminded me of a primitive Goddess effortlessly manipulating her husband into action with a single look.

I'm being dramatic here. I know. But that's where my imagination went

This is a good article regarding the aftermath.

Regarding Will:

The group said action may be taken at its next board meeting on 18 April. That may include "suspension, expulsion, or other sanctions," the statement said.

Regarding Chris:

Ticketing site TickPick said Monday it had sold more tickets for Rock's tour in the preceding 24 hours than in the whole previous month.


We haven't heard the end of this...

[RunningDeer]

{snip}
… would Smith and Rock risk it all for money they don't really need??? They're already wealthy beyond belief. It doesn't make any sense at all. You'd have to be really desperate to take a risk like that, and neither of them are.

I'd just like to hear one good reason why an event like that would be staged. I'm willing to listen and even consider something kind of outrageous, but it has to make sense.
There’s talk that SOME people including Hollywood stars are now working with the “White Hats “ to wake people up. It’s a big movie production. They’ve agreed to do outlandish antics, even embarrass themselves to save their butts in hopes for a lighter sentence or as a lifesaving measure.

There’s no hope for the darkest of the dark bastards. That’s why it’s put pedal to the medal and take out as many as they can along the way. (war, the-jab, frequency weapons, starvation, tainted food, air, water, etc.)

[Denise/Dizi]

I don't know if it was staged but I can tell you, those in my circle saw it as "appropriate" (Will Smith reacting the way that he did) if it was real...

The reasons for this...

* This was not a roast, it was the Oscars, to celebrate success, and those I spoke to? Felt that it was extremely inappropriate to make any comments about someone else's looks, especially given that Jada is dealing with a situation medically, that caused her to cut her hair off.

* The fact that Chris didn't know this, makes it even worse, as he is suggesting that surely she wouldn't get "That" haircut unless taking a movie role...

* It openly encourages the 'public shaming", (by way of humor of others, Like Chris Rock), making it ok to teach the children that "bully behavior" is acceptable, so long as it gets a laugh...

* There are plenty of things one could use as material, other than to slight someone publicly. Everyone I spoke to was more critical of what Chris Rock did, not Will Smith.

* Many people are depressed, and suffer from low self esteem as it is, when comparing themselves to what Hollywood and magazines have set as the "Standard for beauty", Chris Rock sent the message that even "beautiful people" can be publicly humiliated,should they not "Meet a Standard" at any give time. And rather than be appauled, they applaud this behavior, jokes at her expense.

For whatever reason he chose to do it, whether meant to be a joke, or very deliberate, none in my circle thought this was ok for Chris Rock to do... Perhaps Will Smith didn't have to hit him, but I believe that slap showed a lot of people that it is not ok to talk about others in a way that makes them feel bad about themselves for any reason... Especially for laughs and financial gain. They have just gone too far...

Perhaps the next kid at school who tries this, will remember that it got someone else hit in the face, and they will really think about what they say openly before they say it... Sometimes feelings can hurt more than a punch in the face, that is momentary, but emotional baggage stays with many...

I do not think that it was staged, but I do think the media has to spin it... It sells....

Which is surely not something the Deep State wants in the forefront of our attention.
(Not to mention Hunter's laptop, though he might be being set up for a fall.)
The fact that Pfizer is developing a very expensive treatment for Alopecia.
Etc....

And that being the case, it's necessary to deconstruct the whole event to see what's packed inside.
And there's quite a bit, as it turns out if you look between the lines.

After viewing the video of the discussion between Will and Jada, imho he is a closet gay, just from the way they are relating to each other.
Which makes him very blackmailable; his ratings would drop precipitiously if that were to come out.
And Jada, likely being a narcissist, would certainly hold that over him, if she suspects.
My question is still: did Pfizer have anything to do with the incident?
Did they sponsor and pay for the whole act?

But I agree that Hollywood happenings in themselves for the most part are a waste of time.

Hi Dizi. Couple points.

The Oscars hired that guy to host, are you mad at them too? Everyone in the room is either a profesional fake, or works for one.

I get your compassion for bullied youth, but it seems to me that if the message were taken that way, it might mean way MORE bullies. If it was contrived/planned, then maybe this point was one of the objectives. Boost/motivate any potentially violent SJW types, kick that spinning wheel faster.

Thank You for reading that and replying...
Of course I am not mad at who hired Chris Rock...

In fact, those comments were more a "snapshot of the masses" in my area, and what they focused on, and spoke about, when this all happened. And this was what they "CONCLUDED" about such things, having never even considered it may go any deeper than that... AT ALL.. Like a complete state of blissful unawareness....

Whenever something happens in Hollywood, I question it, knowing that the CIA and other agencies have long been embedded within. I just haven't formed any final conclusions about it on my part thus far...

I should have written, that the take away from those in my area, is that they can't even consider the media, Hollywood, and anything else, could in any way, be "deliberate deception", and that includes the movies for which they are receiving awards! As most are written and or produced for specific reasons, to set certain tones, to introduce certain mindsets, etc...

That's who they are, actors, absolutely. And I fall into the catagory of "SJW" lol... My "event, reaction response was... that Chris deserved what he got...

But that doesn't answer why it happened to begin with. He has been a comedian for a very long time, and knows what "Type" of joke to tell, at what "Type" of function... So it really shouldn't have happened, unless someone made a mistake writing his material, OR it was very deliberate...

I had to look up "SJW" and absolutely... it could be that... Tensions seem to be deliberately being ramped up everywhere. From resources, to borders, to freedoms, to unlawful regulations... Seems all in an attempt to hit some goal. The more they do this, the more they talk about weapons, and how they're going to ban them, driving people to arm themselves more... for fear they won't be able to obtain them legally soon... Get the population armed, and get them angry... What's next?

I am going to do some searching to see what movies have been released recently, and what kind of general "Walk Away" feeling it gives, what messages they send.... Most kids don't watch the Oscars, so if it was staged, they wanted to spark something in those that would have felt Chris got what he deserved, and it's about time someone stand up for appropriate behavior...

Either way, if a production? It was geared to serve a purpose... I wanna know what purpose... I will ponder this and keep checking the thread, it is worthy of following this... Not what sparked it, but why... The Agenda behind it, if indeed it was premeditated

[Johnnycomelately]

I would like to touch more on the SJW topic if you're game? Because it wouldn't be a bad thing, to a certain degree, to get people angry enough for change right about now... And it seems they have been trying for quite some time, but surprisingly, people are too docile. Almost everything they earn goes to someone else, and they still comply... It is almost like they're deliberately putting people into positions of authority these days to try to get us to revolt, and even that doesn't work, we just bicker amongst ourselves about little issues... Neighbor against neighbor rather than who we should be fighting...



I think this is the issue, the neighbour against neighbour thing. My own belief, since a long time now, is that the only meaningful change we can make is by changing our own selves.

It may seem like nothing on the surface, but you don't know what's under that surface, unless you take a glimpse. That's all we're trying to do here.

When viewed as merely a celebrity squabble it means less than nothing, but this is Holywood - also called Hollyweird (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?103615-Hollyweird-GreatAwakening), which is a culture unto itself, one full of disguises and metaphors. It's a society, in fact a secret society, and an occult organisation, deeply embedded in the obscure and the obscene. You can really only begin to understand it with the study of symbolism, because they do so love their symbols.

Hollywood sits at the very pinnacle of the power structure, in wealth, status, and influence. It's like the golden Merkaba at the top of the pyramid, representing the dark hidden hand driving really very much of what our western culture has become and is becoming. What they say in Hollywood, what they do, where they go, who they associate with, and how they interact, really does matter.

It's all good, it's not like we're totally in charge of what is going on in our heads anyway, right? All kinds of febrile, imaginative storylines play about in our heads, without either our overt or tacit permission.

Jada is very self-possessed, that is certain, and she commands the spaces she is in. In her relationship with Will, she is definitely the Alpha. I've been reading in other spaces that Will and Jada have rededicated themselves to each other and t their marriage, the implication being that all the "fun and games" are over and they will now be a more traditional husband and wife partnership. So, folks are using this to say that the slap was Will's formal rededication to some form of patriarchy-based interrelationship, where the man is the dominant and (at least publicly so) protective force in the household.

Will Smith Resigns From Film Academy Over Oscars Slap, Issues Extensive Apology

( I think the Academy will probably reinstate Smith.
Keep in mind that the Oscars this year was brought to us by Pfizer. )

"The actor described his on-stage assault of Chris Rock at the Academy Awards as "shocking, painful and inexcusable."Actor Will Smith issued a second apology Friday for slapping comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars, saying he would resign his membership in the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

In a lengthy statement, the actor said his actions during the Oscars on Sunday were “shocking, painful and inexcusable,” and he was prepared to “accept any further consequences” that the academy’s board of governors “deems appropriate.”“The list of those I have hurt is long and includes Chris, his family, many of my dear friends and loved ones, all those in attendance, and global audiences,” Smith said, adding that he is “committed to doing the work to ensure that I never again allow violence to overtake reason.”

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FPSxJvHWUAEbTkp?format=jpg&name=medium

During the Oscars ceremony, Rock made a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, having a shaved head. Pinkett Smith has spoken publicly about her struggles with alopecia. Smith then walked on stage and struck Rock across the face. After he returned to his seat, he shouted, “Keep my wife’s name out of your ****ing mouth.”

Later that evening, during a tearful acceptance speech for his award for lead actor in “King Richard,” a movie about Venus and Serena Williams’ family, Smith apologized, but not to Rock. The next day, he issued a public apology to Rock on Instagram."


New Conspiracy Theory Emerges After It’s Discovered Pfizer Sponsored Oscars And Has New Alopecia Drug in Trials
Date: March 30, 2022
Author: Nwo Report
Source: Missy Crane

"Right now there’s a race between several pharma companies to be the first to get an FDA-approved alopecia drug on the market.

And Pfizer, who was behind in this race, is taking the lead.

There are currently no FDA-approved treatments for alopecia, an autoimmune disease characterized by hair loss, but multiple drugs could come to market in the indication over the coming years.

Pfizer’s ritlecitinib joined Lilly and Incyte’s Olumiant on the list of drugs to hit the primary endpoint in pivotal alopecia trials — and Concert Pharmaceuticals is following closely behind.

What’s interesting is that Pfizer just hosted the Oscars, where, oddly enough, everything centered on alopecia.

The entire world is now talking about alopecia, thanks to the “slap” that happened at the Oscars between Will Smith and Chris Rock.

Jada Pinkett Smith, Will’s wife, claims she has alopecia.

And just 15 days ago, it was reported by Pharm Biz that Pfizer completed their acquisition of clinical-stage pharma company “Arena Pharma,” which specializes in alopecia studies, among other things.

Arena Pharmaceuticals brings to Pfizer a portfolio of diverse and promising development-stage therapeutic candidates in gastroenterology, dermatology, and cardiology, including etrasimod, an oral, selective sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator currently in development for a range of immuno-inflammatory diseases including ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, atopic dermatitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, and alopecia areata.

Lilly was leading the alopecia race, but Pfizer has now come in from behind.

This has sparked a new conspiracy theory after it was discovered that Pfizer actually sponsored the Oscars.

FiercePharma reported that Oscar-winning actor Will Smith slapping comedian Chris Rock made the biggest headlines out of the Oscars Sunday night. But the sponsorship from Pfizer and COVID shot partner BioNTech was for the pharma marketing world a bigger moment.

The vaccine-making pair, which teamed up two years ago and produced the world’s biggest-selling product last year in Comirnaty, their COVID-19 shot, joined forces again to sponsor the biggest night in Hollywood.

“Pfizer and BioNTech are proud to support the Oscars, and we are heartened to see the film industry gather in person and alongside fans to celebrate the talent and artistry produced during the past year,” a Pfizer spokesperson told Fierce Pharma Marketing.

Pharma Forum reported that Eli Lilly and Incyte have another rival in the rear-view mirror for Olumiant in alopecia areata after Pfizer reported that its ritlecitinib improved scalp hair regrowth in a late-stage trial.

In the phase 2b/3 ALLEGRO trial, JAK inhibitor ritlecitinib hit its primary objective of improving the area of scalp covered by hair in people with this autoimmune form of hair loss, giving Pfizer a positive readout in the first of two trials that will form the basis of regulatory filings for the drug.

The trial recruited 719 people with at least 50% scalp hair loss at baseline, who were treated with one of two doses of ritlecitinib (30mg or 50mg once-daily) or placebo, with or without a high-dose (200mg) induction period lasting four weeks.

At both doses, ritlecitinib (also known as PF-06651600) was significantly more effective than placebo in regrowing hair so that patients had 80% scalp coverage, as measured by the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score.

Lilly and Incyte’s already-marketed JAK inhibitor Olumiant (baricitinib) is currently in the lead among drugs for alopecia areata, with a filing due in the second half of this year after two positive phases 3 trials.

Fierce Biotech reported that Pfizer’s alopecia therapy has been linked to a reduction in hair loss in early topline clinical data, setting the stage for a scrap with Eli Lilly and Incyte in the title fight for a potential blockbuster opportunity.

Ritlecitinib has met its primary endpoint in a phase 2b/3 clinical trial of patients with alopecia areata, Pfizer reported Wednesday. The update on the JAK3/TEC inhibitor comes months after Eli Lilly and Incyte reported late-phase success in alopecia.

The conspiracy theory is interesting on the surface, but when you look deeper, the drugs aren’t even set to hit the market for years.

Most expect the drugs won’t hit the market until 2025, although that could change based on trials.

There are currently no FDA-approved treatments for alopecia, an autoimmune disease characterized by hair loss, but multiple drugs could come to market in the indication over the coming years. Pfizer’s ritlecitinib joined Lilly and Incyte’s Olumiant on the list of drugs to hit the primary endpoint in pivotal alopecia trials —and Concert Pharmaceuticals is following closely behind.

It is more likely that Pfizer was sponsoring the event to promote their COVID vaccine, but I’ll admit that it is curious that now, the entire world is talking about alopecia as this “race” for a treatment heats up.

I am sure that Pfizer isn’t disappointed about that; after all, awareness is their number one marketing tool, which is why US drug companies market to Americans using commercials with catchy jingles and very marketable cutesy names for their drugs.

Jada Smith's Narcissistic Influence Over Will Smith | What Really Drove Him To Slap Chris Rock

"The slap heard across the world came as a shock at The Oscars 2022 as Will Smith in a very out of character move, walked up on stage, interrupting an awards show watched my millions on live television, to slap comedian Chris Rock over an arguably insensitive joke about his possibly narcissistic wife, Jada Smith. What would drive a humble, down to Earth, good spirited man to pull such a stunt, fully aware of the repercussions it would have on his image and career? Love? Nah.

For those that know about narcissistic abuse, we have a difference of opinion here. While all eyes are on Will Smith and Chris Rock, let's focus on who's pulling the strings behind the scenes, and shed some light into the triangulation, infidelity, and narcissistic hold Jada Smith seems to have on The Fresh Prince.

Is Mass Media's Oscar Distraction Designed To Continue Hiding Biden Bombshell?

[Merkaba360]

He could definitely be correct about many things. However, this guy is so biased thinking everyone in the world is like him. Not everyone is jealous and monogamous. Hollywood stars are a very different breed and it is ridiculous to assume their life is like this guys simple life.

Will and Jada have been married for 25 years. That is almost impossible in hollywood. They have so much power and money to do anything, staying in the routine with 1 lover for 25 years with so many gorgeous and interesting people around you is so unlikely. People seek new experiences in the long run.

Maybe she knew that she couldn't stay monogamous at some point and was being honest about it. She could just lie and cheat in secret like what most people do who can't hold up monogamy. They have kids, so was the "Life Partnership" started to keep the family together. Not sure how many old their kids were when they started to allow polyamory. And they have been together so long, maybe they are comfortable and don't want to give up their situation and family but the romance has mostly vanished.

In the end, I have no idea and don't care. As the thread title says, its hollyweird. There is a lot of questions, I don't pretend to understand how weird their situation may be. Their family could be occultists for all we know.

A couple of points. I would not have known there was another award ceremony if not for that slap heard round the world and I certainly wouldnt' have tuned in to see the clip so there is that! So, if that was part of the plan they succeeded I'd say.

Chris Rock put his hands behind his back leaning forward to me almost as if he was bracing for what he knew was coming and then he gets slapped but I tell you it looked like one of those 'WWF' stunts where the guy hits the man yeah, but most of the impact and noise is the foot on the floor stomp at the same time usually unnoticed by the crowd as the slap takes place, To me it looked staged. And then you have the sudden appearance of Alopecia all over the news in the headlines and Jada and her issues with it (I have it too BTW)

and at the same time coincidentally of course then BIG PHARMA comes out with this news of a new drug to treat it! All very suspect in my opinion that we have been conned. I'd seriously suggest that a kickback of sorts is coming or was paid to the players involved here but since they all have shell businesses to hide and launder money with I doubt it would be easy to find. I'm not usually one to believe in conspiracy theories but then this move is totally and I mean totally out of character for the man Will Smith. However, the punishments appear to be real being handed down and it does appear it's real but it sure seems to have a lot of indications to me someone wanted to up ratings and sell a new drug at the same time. What would someone in Smith's shoes demand for payment to ruin his ever voting in the academy or being a member again? How much would it take to make a guy say, "Gee, all I got to do is ignore the by laws and go up on stage at a key moment and slap him" and you will pay me x amount for that and then agree to do it? Well, I guess it's real then and it is just coincidence about Big Pharma just happening to have a new drug on the horizon for alopecia which everyone and their brother knows about now!

But then there is the fact that Jada is wearing the pants in the family apparently and Will has politely allowed her to do this yielding to her will and her needs for the last 25 years and as a result he probably has felt someone lesser of a man than he likes. It may even be that some of his circle rubs him about how whipped he is we don't know but something made him go completely out of laughing mode to dead serious mode in half a second and it was Jada and her face or did she whisper something? Whatever was going on in Will's head the thing I see is that he has deeper seated issues about things and Rock was just the straw the broke the camel's back after Will was walked on and stepped on in the relationship he'd be danged if he was going to let Rock get away with it when he can't and off he went to go down synonomous with the "B-SLAP"! Be kind! Don't go all, "Will Smith" on me now!? LOL

How Oscars Producer Stopped Will Smith From Being Ejected

UO1XN1bsT-k


The whole event and everything around it was pretty revealing.

The Oscars have gone out of their way to be more inclusive in recent years. On the surface that's a good thing, worthy of praise. But it's not without its problems..

For example, all Oscar worthy movies now need a minimum requirement of x amount of gay, trans, black, female etc in them or they won't be eligible for an award. And as we all know, the Oscar isn't just an award, it has all sorts of ramifications for money and careers and so forth. So the entire industry has now shifted into this toxic wokeness.

Will Smith didn't get escorted out of the Oscars because he's black. Plain and simple. The optics would have been terrible. The headlines would have screamed Racism! and no doubt various wokies would have stirred the pot to perpetuate the grift for attention and personal gain and so forth. Plus it would have undone all the work the academy has invested in its "inclusivity" campaign.

Just imagine if Mel Gibson had slapped Chris Rock!:bigsmile: What do you think would have happened then?

One astrologer's take on the negative side of the cycle for the next 2 years (officially starting 4/5/22) with Mars in conjunction with Saturn:
https://angstoic.com/2022/04/mars-saturn-boot-camp/?fbclid=IwAR3pOzQ-spQJPyeq-KqpoiOSYlXHlWD9m-cinJVW3w1D3TZBu782yJYrBMY

"However, it is the male who suffers hardest with this aspect. His sensitivity or vulnerability to issues around his maleness, pride, autonomy, and sexual self-image will drive him to disguise these with overcompensating, disproportionate or violent actions, which often escalate matters to fracture or physical exhaustion. In feeling insufficient about his insurmountable obligations, there is every possibility that he succumbs to daunting outward pressures to perform in ways that are not natural to him.

Saturn’s 3D-world pressures and constraints, hounding expectations to act in a decreed way or produce a specific result, generate a ‘win-at-all-costs’ mentality. This culturally imposed stress negatively affects his spontaneity and ability to respond maturely. At worst, it leaves a debilitating effect on the masculine to perform creatively and his ability to be open to what the universe has to offer. Rather than stepping up to show his competency, he psyches himself into a corner, fearing failure and resignation, effectively waging a bitter war against himself.

Hence, the unconscious masculine becomes effectively corralled into organised anger and war activities. Mobs, gangs, armies, police forces, militia, business executives and their organised workforce – any role in which the individual submits his personal drive to the collective, where Saturn’s fear-based conditions for public safety or security of ‘the state’ is the domain of the Mars-Saturn type. A latent cowardice to stand alone develops; the individual spirit is crushed; forced to fall into line with social expectations; deferring one’s standing alone to succumbing to crowd pressure."

Big Pharma Advertising Dollars Are at an All-Time High
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
April 06, 2022
https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2022/04/06/big-pharma-advertising-at-all-time-high.aspx?ui=8d3c7e22a03f5300d2e3338a0f080d2da3add85bca35e09236649153e4675f72&sd=20110604&cid_source=dnl&cid_medium=email&cid_content=art1ReadMore&cid=20220406_HL2&mid=DM1147686&rid=1453930315

"STORY AT-A-GLANCE
The drug industry influences and manipulates media through advertising dollars. In 2021, drug companies spent an aggregate $6.88 BILLION on direct-to-consumer advertising (DCTA), up slightly from $6.86 billion in 2020
The U.S. and New Zealand are the only two countries that permit DCTA, making media in these countries more likely to have pro-pharma bias
The Will Smith-Chris Rock drama during the Oscars may have been nothing more than a subliminal publicity stunt for Pfizer’s upcoming alopecia drug
Over the past year, the U.S. government spent $1 billion of U.S. taxpayers’ money to advertise the COVID jab, which is the most dangerous and least proven drug ever marketed, while simultaneously calling for the censorship of anyone who dared to address the risks of this novel treatment
By law, drug ads must not be false or misleading, must present a “fair balance” of information describing both the risks and benefits of a drug, must include facts that are “material” to the product’s advertised uses, and must include a “brief summary” that mentions every risk described in the product’s labeling.
Few if any ads for the COVID jab have fulfilled these requirements

How do you control major media? The short answer — illustrated in the video above — is: through advertising dollars. Big Pharma advertising dominates, making up a large portion of a given media outlet’s revenue, and that funding gives Pharma the power to dictate what ends up in the news and what doesn’t.

While Big Pharma has frequently spent more on advertising than on research and development, over the past couple of years, ad spending has increased to new heights.1

In 2021, drug companies spent an aggregate $6.88 BILLION on direct-to-consumer advertising (DCTA), up slightly from $6.86 billion in 2020.2 And, remember, DCTA is only permitted in two countries in the world, the U.S. and New Zealand, so media tend to be particularly biased in favor of Big Pharma those two countries.

Did Will Smith Smack Chris Rock on Behalf of Sponsors?
Pfizer, Novartis, Eli Lilly, Incyte and Exact Sciences even sponsored the 2022 Academy Awards, which was “an unusual turn for the industry,” according to some biopharma professionals.3 Chances are you heard about how Will Smith smacked Chris Rock across the face. Smith supposedly took offense over a comment about his wife’s lack of hair.

Jada Pinkett Smith has alopecia areata, which is believed to be an autoimmune disorder. Isn’t it amazing, then, that Pfizer, a primary sponsor of this year’s Oscars,4 is working on an alopecia drug? They announced “top-line results” from a Phase 2b/3 trial in August 2021.5

It’s especially curious since three of the other sponsors — Eli Lilly, Incyte (partnering with Lilly) and Novartis — also have alopecia drugs nearly ready to go.6,7,8 Coincidence? Or a cleverly disguised publicity stunt for soon-to-be-released drugs? If the latter, it would put a whole new spin on the concept of subliminal advertising.

Taxpayer Money Used to Advertise Most Dangerous Drug Ever
Even more egregiously, over the past year, the U.S. government used your tax dollars to advertise the COVID jab, which is the most dangerous and least proven drug ever marketed in the history of the world. How do we know this? Well, there’s:

An unprecedented number of adverse reports after the COVID jab filed with the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS)
Insurance companies are reporting unprecedented death rates. For example, OneAmerica reported the death rate among working-age Americans in the third quarter of 2021 was 40% higher than prepandemic levels;9 the Hartford Insurance Company found mortality in 2021 was 32% than 2019 and 20% higher than 2020, and Lincoln National reports that claims were 54% higher in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to 2019 (compare that to an average year-over-year increase of 13.7%)10
Funeral homes are reporting an increase in burials and cremations in 2021 compared to 2020, when the pandemic was at its peak11
In Germany, a large health insurance company found the death rate after the rollout of the COVID jabs was 14 times higher than what was being reported by the German government,12,13 and according to a British government report, 9 out of 10 COVID deaths have occurred in people who were fully vaccinated14,15
So, the U.S. government purchased favorable media coverage for a novel and poorly tested gene transfer injection that is now killing and disabling hundreds of thousands of Americans, while simultaneously calling for the censorship of anyone who dared to address the risks of this novel treatment.

In all, the U.S. government spent $1 BILLION of U.S. taxpayers’ dollars to ‘strengthen vaccine confidence in the United States’ and ‘combat misinformation about vaccines,’ all with ‘the goal of increasing rates of vaccination across all ages.’
As reported by The Blaze:16

“In response to a FOIA request filed by TheBlaze, HHS [Health and Human Services] revealed that it purchased advertising from major news networks including:

ABC, CBS, and NBC, as well as cable TV news stations Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, legacy media publications including the New York Post, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post, digital media companies like BuzzFeed News and Newsmax, and hundreds of local newspapers and TV stations.

These outlets were collectively responsible for publishing countless articles and video segments regarding the vaccine that were nearly uniformly positive about the vaccine in terms of both its efficacy and safety ...

The Biden administration purchased ads on TV, radio, in print, and on social media to build vaccine confidence, timing this effort with the increasing availability of the vaccines ... Though virtually all of these newsrooms produced stories covering the COVID-19 vaccines, the taxpayer dollars flowing to their companies were not disclosed to audiences ...”

In all, the U.S. government spent $1 BILLION of U.S. taxpayers’ dollars to “strengthen vaccine confidence in the United States” and “combat misinformation about vaccines,” all with “the goal of increasing rates of vaccination across all ages.” Government also collaborated with celebrities, social media influencers and “expert” interviewees such as Dr. Anthony Fauci. As noted by The Daily Exposé:17

“In other words, Fauci, the man who has been the ‘face’ of COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021, who publicly disparaged anyone who questioned the data he was using to support his recommendations, and who blithely referred to himself as ‘the science,’ was, in fact, a shill.”

The Level of Manipulation of Information Is Immense
While newsrooms claim to be completely independent from the advertising department, history and the personal experience of insiders tells us this simply isn’t true.

Take Sharyl Attkisson, for example, a five-time Emmy Award-winning network anchor, producer and reporter whose television career spans more than three decades. In 2009, she blew the lid off the swine flu media hype, showing the hysteria was manufactured and completely unfounded.

In 2014, she wrote “Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama's Washington.” It’s a tell-all exposé on what really goes on behind the media curtain, and it’s not pretty. The extent to which information is manipulated is far greater than most people suspect, and this is particularly true when it comes to COVID.

Years before the pandemic, Attkisson explained how false “consensus” was being created: Let’s say you hear about a new drug for an ailment you have, and you decide to do your own due diligence. Ultimately, you conclude it is safe and effective because everywhere you look, the information seems to support this conclusion. You feel good knowing you’ve done your homework, and fill the prescription. But what you don’t know is that:

Facebook and Twitter pages speaking highly of the drug are run by individuals on the payroll of the drug company

The Wikipedia page for the drug is monitored and controlled by a special-interest editor hired by the drug company

Google search engine results have been optimized, ensuring you’ll find all those positive sources while burying contradicting information

The nonprofit organization you stumbled across online that recommends the drug was secretly founded and funded by the drug company

The positive study you found while searching online was also financed by the drug company

The news articles reporting the positive findings of that study sound suspiciously alike for a reason — they’re reiterating information provided by the drug company’s PR department; hence, you will not find any contradictory information there either

Doctors promoting the drug and making derogatory comments about those who worry about side effects are actually paid consultants for the drug company

The medical lecture your own personal doctor attended, where he became convinced the drug is safe and efficacious, was also sponsored by the drug company

In short, the “consensus” you see has been cleverly manufactured by the most effective propaganda campaign in the history of the world, in an effort to convince you of what the corporate cartels want you to conclude at the end of doing “your own research.” This way, they can sell you more of their expensive and dangerous products.

Over the past two years, this manipulation has become far more obvious and easy for people to see. Before the pandemic, it was pretty well disguised. Today, most can rattle off dozens of examples of how COVID information was manipulated and controlled, through the examples above and others, both by Big Pharma and the U.S. government.

Government Media Manipulation Has Been Routine for Years
For years, the U.S. government, regulatory agencies and public health organizations have colluded with media to control what gets reported and what doesn’t. This, too, is something that has become blatantly obvious during this pandemic, but it’s not a new phenomenon.

For example, back in 2016, a Scientific American investigation revealed how the U.S. Food and Drug Administration routinely manipulated mainstream media, stripping them of their independence:18

“It was a Faustian bargain ... The deal was this: NPR, along with a select group of media outlets, would get a briefing about an upcoming announcement by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration a day before anyone else.

But in exchange for the scoop, NPR would have to abandon its reportorial independence. The FDA would dictate whom NPR's reporter could and couldn't interview ... NPR reporter Rob Stein wrote back to the government officials offering the deal. Stein asked for a little bit of leeway to do some independent reporting but was turned down flat. Take the deal or leave it.”

As it turns out, NPR accepted the deal and Stein joined reporters from a dozen other media organizations to get the scoop. “Every single journalist present had agreed not to ask any questions of sources not approved by the government until given the go-ahead,” Scientific American wrote.

Considering the U.S. government’s many power grabs over the past two years, there’s no reason to assume it hasn’t been using this kind of manipulation to control media coverage of COVID-19 and the injections. Bill Gates, whose influence rivals that of nation states through his funding of the World Health Organization, has also poured hundreds of millions of dollars into the COVID campaign. As reported by The Daily Exposé:19

“Using more than 30,000 grants, Gates has contributed at least $319 million to the media ... Recipients included CNN, NPR, BBC, The Atlantic and PBS. Gates has also sponsored foreign organizations that included The Daily Telegraph, the Financial Times, and Al Jazeera. More than $38 million has also been funneled into investigative journalism centers.

Gates’ influence within the press is far-reaching, from journalism to journalistic training. This ultimately makes true objective reporting about Gates or his initiatives virtually impossible.”

DTCA Known to Produce Negative Public Health Effects
In 2006, experts warned that DTCA could trigger “placebo effects” and result in “negative economic, social and political consequences,”20 and in 2011, an article in Pharmacy and Therapeutics noted that the rules governing drug ads to the public were “too relaxed and inadequately enforced.”21

As reported by Forbes in 2019,22 “While DTCA has some positive effects, these commercials tend to mislead patients and can result in the breakdown of the doctor-patient relationship ... According to an FDA survey, 65% of physicians said that DTCA for drugs sent confusing messages to the patients ...” Importantly, drug ads must:23
not be false or misleading
present a “fair balance” of information describing both the risks and benefits of a drug
include facts that are “material” to the product’s advertised uses, and
include a “brief summary” that mentions every risk described in the product’s labeling

Have you ever seen an ad for the COVID jab that held true to these four requirements? I can’t think of one. People who have been injured by the COVID jab are now also starting to speak out, saying they feel betrayed and misled, as they were never told about the potential dangers of the shot.

One excellent example is the Substack writer Joomi’s story, “I Was Deceived About COVID Vaccine Safety.”24 Has mainstream media become too corrupted to serve its intended function? I believe so. At bare minimum, the likelihood of getting the truth on anything related to government or health, specifically, is virtually nil these days."

( Is Dr. Mercola being cynical? I don't think so.
Think of all the crimes BigPharma has committed so far, just the ones we know of.
There certainly haven't been any signs of reform, quite the opposite.
Kudos to him for speaking out! If there is a whistleblower out there somewhere who can spill the beans, this kind of responsible journalism should serve to make it easier for him/her to speak out too. )

[Ratszinger]

You know one of Smith's closest friends is said to be Martin Lawrence and Martin is also very good friends with Dave Chappelle! Both Chappelle and Lawrence have something in common! They both got out of the 'sick system' (Chappelle's words when speaking about when Lawrence left when he said, "Maybe he isn't sick! Maybe it's just a sick business!" ) and then came back after a break. Suppose Smith has had enough and wanted out but knowing he was too big they'd never let him out! Suppose two of his closest friends advised him as to another way to not only step back but make the business, the system itself reject you! Hmmmm? Very interesting way to get that break they otherwise would be denied for being too valuable to controlling entities. This way they let him go cause he's "Tainted Meat" now!
