Anyone seen it yet?
Quite a good view in my opinion. I would highly recommend it to anyone that has 2 hours of free time.

Someone on Coast 2 Coast mentioned these films tonight and then I remembered seeing this thread a little while before. I have not seen any of them as you can tell, but I am interested in watching the one about the Federal Reserve at least.
Do you recommend watching the first one before the second one? Or does it really not matter.

yes i've been overwhelmingly disturbed all weekend by it. not sure how possible that utopian society they are talking about is. there will always be people that will find a way to take power and control others. i mean what do you do about them. if you take control of them, you just become them, and then you're the bad guy. its very tragic that i don't see it happening, because i would love to live in a place like that.

Use that hour to think about your current life and make it more efficient to create more free time in the future.
Thanks llc, didn't know this one was available already.

Indeed both films are good. If you don't mind some really out there conspiracy theories, you should check out "behold a pale horse". Kind of nonsense, but still interesting if you are into theories like what is portrayed in these movies

k, seen it. i think its a nice summary of what goes wrong in this world. a lot of it was no big news, but i think everybody on this planet should at least watch this and think for himself if they want to contribute to corprocay and the monetary system in general.
the smallest and easiest way to start is to change your energy supplier. did that a while ago...

i find myself in the same dilemma
at the end there are suggestions but nothing seems like it would actually make a difference.

will be up on the 10th. i hope to look there for ideas.

what to do after watching these videos? spread em, discuss, call to boycot wherever possible. letting everybody know comes first. maybe something can develop out of that. i wonder why none of the patriots with guns went crazy yet. they should be angry, realizing they ve been fooled the most, fighting for lies...

I just watched the 5 parts on The Federal Reserve, and I would like to know what you feel is conspiracy specfically with the central banking system. I will agree that somethings said are rooted with their injecture, but a lot of the people mentioned, the quotes used, and the companies mentioned are factual.

Thanks for making me aware of this. I saw the first one some time ago and it's scary how fast I forgot about it and fell back into old routines.
I found this one to be better than the first, it actually went into some solutions instead of going on and on about the problems.
I've always been the type to basically just realize the issues, understand them, hate them, and simply expect others to solve it, even if solving it meant joining a movement. I know that's bad, but admit it, a lot of us are like this.
All I can really say is that it would make me happy that if within my lifespan, I could see a class 1 civilization form. I would be overjoyed to see positive change on a scale that big.
I remember with the first Zeitgeist, I showed everyone I knew. But nothing much came of it, but how could I truly know that? For all I know, it spread to many people, some of which might actually have done something about it to the best of their abilities.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, and I try not to be. However after seeing this, it's had to not subscribe to this train of thought. I see nothing fictitious about it and that's my logic, plain and simple.
So what am I going to do? I'm just going to show everyone I know this, I'll check out the zeitgeist movement site when it launches in a couple days. Although what I'm going to try hardest is to not forget it like I did the first.

all that shit stuck in my mind from the moment i saw it and i really can't get rid of it is the problem. it's almost obsessive. it really bothers me because i tend to take the entire concept in at once and it's too much. it's overwhelming and difficult to handle.
anyway i'll fucking deal. so i inadvertently brought out the awareness and high concern in a very good friend of mine. i didn't even direct the video at him. i'd posted it on someone else's myspace and he ended up watching the whole thing (original zeitgeist). now we cover each other in awareness of current events. very cool and positive experience.

yea, the first one had some credibility problems with some of the sources (Jordan Maxwell etc.), but it was remarkably well edited, if that's a virtue dearer than truth, for a low-budget maverick.
I'm also glad that all this stuff I thought was pretty underground is becoming more mainstream all of a sudden.
But as soon as it becomes a movement, you better do your research and think it out for yourself before jumping on any bandwagon... FOR EXAMPLE, I wouldn't take what they said (in the first Zeitgeist) about the monetary system as gospel truth. All this anti-Federal Reserve stuff is interesting, but it's usually based on paranoid isolationist fantasies and a belief in the gold standard, or some fixed idea like that. Sooooo, I just think there are many problems with this generation-defining hype.
But I'm still waiting for an official torrent release, so I can't comment on whether the sequel's better or worse.

you could go and build earthships. they're off-the-grid, the house harvests rainwater, filters, purifiers and recycles it through plants, etc, effectively growing food for 4 or more people, wind+solar to produce electricity, thermal mass for heat.. so its off the grid, no water+electricity+utility bills and you've got your own foodsource.
this is one of those things that the truth-out-people never care about. its like it somehow just doesnt matter to them, more important to draw devilhorns on this or that person.
earthship biotecture.
grab garbage warrior the DVD from either a webstore or a torrent. checkit.
then look into buckminster fuller.

I have a feeling this whole country and all of its split ends are coming crashing down, the only good thing is that we will hopefully do it to ourselves, and leave everyone else at bay.
Earth-homes are a good idea, for people who still want to ignore the problems that are affecting more than just us.

the housing infrastructure + utility-grids are one of those things that keep us perpetually paying for electricity etc.. i dont know what kinda "ignoring the problems" it is to want to disconnect from the grid and be self-sufficient.

this whole system of "protesting" "boycotting" stuff is so boring. try supporting something for once, try being FOR something instead of AGAINST something .see where that gets ya. its ridiculous that it took till 2008 for people to come up with that carrot-mobbing idea. but at least someone's starting to think it might be worth being FOR something now.
