English | ASIN: B0CWB2T6K5 | 2024 | 7 hours and 27 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 406 MB
Author: Brian Sussman
Narrator: Brian Sussman

Climate Cult reveals how the climate change agenda has reached into virtually every corner of American life, reducing personal freedom, exacerbating inflation, usurping property rights, and redefining social justice, equity, and equality-to save liberty, it must be stopped. The climate change agenda has nothing to do with a pristine environment. Instead, it’s a devious scheme designed to upend America’s foundational rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Originally conceived by early disciples of Marx, this scheme relies on ecological crises-both real and imagined-to frighten the masses into cult-like submission as it seeks to create a brave new world. Advanced by the United Nations, promoted by the World Economic Forum, practiced at the federal and state level, embraced by the educational system, and sold by media mouthpieces, the climate change agenda has invaded nearly every aspect of society, threatening to dismantle American liberty and advance a total reset of the world’s economy. In Climate Cult, Brian Sussman presents impeccable research and persuasive facts that will embolden you to take a stand against this dangerous charade.

Fervid Filmmaking 66 Cult Pictures of Vision, Verve and No Self-Restraint


Free Download Fervid Filmmaking: 66 Cult Pictures of Vision, Verve and No Self-Restraint By Mike Watt
2013 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 0786470666 | EPUB | 5 MB
For fervid or feverish film professionals and buffs, there is a term–"Kitchen Sink movies"–referring to films that take severe-angle turns at unexpected moments, where a filmmaker will borrow from across the artistic spectrum to create a wild, disorienting ride. They are what this book is about. Throwing marketing reports and box-office projections to the wind, the writer-director-producers conjure a whirl of ideas, of images, of themes or Descriptions, that inexplicably come together despite conventional reason. Almost always cult films, these movies rarely succeed in their first run. Indeed, some of the very best remain unknown to mainstream audiences. This volume provides in-depth examinations of 66 of these cultural oddities, from such disparate films as La Morte en direct, The Final Programme, and Head to lesser known independents like The Prodigy, Land of College Prophets, and Scrapbook. Putting these unusual films into a cultural context promotes an under appreciated but fascinating facet of movie-making.
