The Rise of Skywalker

PT I: X Factor

BLOG TITLE: THE X FACTOR

A picture can say a thousand words, but thousands of words being expressed in the above painting would remain unheard without the viewer's knowledge of the New Testament. Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is clearly a scene taken from its pages, but we only know this because it has been pointed out to us countless times. Imagine we'd grown up in a society devoid of Christianity and the story of Christ, and were then presented with this painting for the first time. We might get a sense of awe and history from it - but the story it tells would never extend beyond our own imagination extrapolating upon the title. The symbolic relevance of various facial/hand expressions and particular positions of the disciples at the table, relative to Jesus, would probably never be fully appreciated. In short, the story encoded into the scene by the painter would not be perceived by the viewer unless they were familiar with the source material from which it was inspired.

The above annotated version was taken from taughtbydegree.wordpress.com, who's author is a Freemason. The annotations reveal an esoteric symbolic layer to the painting, which can only be fully appreciated by those versed in Astrology. Since many Christians seem to believe Astrology is "the work of the Devil," they likely would never have heard of this at all, or would not take the time to consider the symbolism's validity. Therefore, this aspect of it remains invisible to most, just as the story it tells of Christ remains unknown to those in our hypothetical alternate universe who have never heard of the New Testament.

Why would a Freemason be so quick to perceive coded astrological symbolism within such a painting, while the average Christian would not? No, it's not because Dan Brown is required reading in Masonic Lodges! It is Because Freemasons are part of an old tradition of "mystery schools," of which Da Vinci was also very likely a member, in one form or another. With this in mind, consider the Freemasonic symbolism embedded within the recent Star Wars films.

If you've read my previous blogs on the latest Star Wars trilogy, it should be very obvious by now how blatantly the Freemasonic Square and Compass appears "covertly" within many of the promotional images. What this indicates is that the individual(s) ultimately producing these films are either Freemasons, or they want to give people a reason to believe they are. Why?

The above image with the Emperor's head just below the center of the "X" is, in a way, a spoiler referencing the final battle in the film, where Rey "crosses" 2 lightsabers in order to destroy him. There is something being said here about this point where the lines "cross." An X is, after all, a form of cross - sometimes known as the cross of Saint Andrew in the Christian context.

The X, as a symbol, holds profound symbolic meaning in both Freemasonry and ancient Egyptian mysteries. Ultimately, the X or CROSS probably is an ancient reference to the sun's crossing over the horizon, as it sets in the west. It then rises again [crosses over from below, to above the horizon] in the east, and is "born again." There is also the larger yearly scale of the sun's journey along the ecliptic, from it's gradual "fall" across the equator in late September, to it's lowest point along the Tropic of Capricorn. It is then "born again" in December, as it begins it's trip back towards the Northern hemisphere, "passing over" the equator in SPRING along the way, ushering in Summer as it reaches it's summit along the Tropic of Cancer in June.

[Roman "Chi-Rho" cross of Constantine]

Constantine I [aka "Constantine the Great"], was a Roman Emperor who ruled between AD 306 and 337. He is essentially responsible for legalizing Christianity and the establishment of the Roman Catholic Church. Before this, Rome was a pagan society who worshipped the sun and planets. Given this, Constantine is obviously an extremely important person in Roman Catholic history. A bit about the Cross of Constantine:

According to Eusebius in ‘Life of Constantine’, in which Eusebius writes a favourable biography of the emperor, Constantine sees something in the sky. In 312 A.D. at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, which was essentially a battle between Emperor Constantine and Maxentius over the throne of Rome, Constantine looked up to the sun before the battle and saw a cross of light above it, and with it the Greek words - “Ἐν Τούτῳ Νίκα”, meaning ‘in this sign, conquer’, which is often rendered in to the Latin version - “in hoc signo vinces”, which means in this sign, you will conquer. Constantine then commanded his troops to adorn their shields with a Christian symbol, ‘chi-rho’ (XP) which are the first two letters of ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ which is Greek for Christos. - Medium.com

Notice how the name "Chi-Rho" is similar in pronunciation to Kylo. The Chi-Rho is a symbol for Rome's presumed "divine authority" to enforce "God's" plan [which seems like it was more of a political decision - to "unite" paganism with Christianity, and rule them both from the Vatican]. I have emphasized the symbolic relavance of Kylo Ren's cross shaped lightsaber in previous blogs, and the anti-Christian symbolism of it. Seems to me this fits perfectly with the history behind the Chi Rho, and is certainly suggestive - especially given Palpatine's obvious "Dark Pope" countenance.

Notice references to an "Emperor" and a battle for "the throne" in the description above from medium.com. The last battle between the Emperor and Rey/Kylo occurs before a dark throne, which the Emperor encourages Rey to take. Rey then appears to defeat the Emperor using an X-shaped cross of light! Note above the association between "the sun" and this "cross of light." Recall "the Last Supper" again, featuring 12 disciples [12 signs/houses of the zodiac] clustered around Jesus [the SON/SUN of God]. What's going on here with all of these religious references and occult symbols?

We see this same motif of the square and compass, but also an emphasis on the X/Cross in the above promotional images. Notice that Rey is actually looking directly at the center of the cross - where the two points meet. We can't see Kylo Ren's eyes. Is he looking at us? Something is being said here covertly, about this point where the lines cross each other. A red/yellow sun shines brightly behind Kylo Ren. Is that a blue-ish 2nd sun behind Rey? We spoke of the themes of duality in previous blogs, and the deep occult significance of that. Here it is again.

[NOTE: You must click/tap on the image in order to magnify it at the proper resolution. Some details may not be clear without doing this.]

What is this War of the Worlds? The above is, apparently, a Chinese version of "the Rise of Skywalker" promotional film poster, which was released in December of 2019. Obviously Star Destroyers have always had this pyramid-esque shape to them - but here it is really being emphasized [with a little help from my yellow annotations]. Since these pyramids are all floating, and seem to be staring down on the battlefield, I am going to guess these are supposed to represent capstones. That is, the very top of pyramids, as we are looking up at them. What do you suppose this symbolizes, given what we know about the hierarchical structure of the "Illuminati Pyramid?" To me, this symbolizes the aggressive mobilization of the upper elite in society, coming out to lay the land to waste for good - or to ensure opposition remains strong within the populace. This is particularly disturbing when we consider "Rise of Skywalker" came out the same month the Chinese Wuhan Virus [aka Coronavirus] was released into the population. Is this poster telling us something about the larger forces that may have been behind the creation/spread of the virus, by putting so many of these pyramids in the sky of the Chinese version of this poster during the month infections began? There are star destroyers in other promotional posters from this film, but none suggest viewing them as a cluster of pyramids as aggressively as this one does. They are a strong focal point of the image, whereas in most others, they are background images.

Also worth noting, Kylo Ren's lightsaber which is tilted to form an X here. X, X, X, what is it with the X?

Here we have what many consider to be the main promotional image for "The Rise of Skywalker." First off, proportions and perspective are all over the place. Kylo Ren is the furthest away, yet his head is larger than everyone else. He duels with Rey on the bottom right - in front of everyone else, yet they are depicted the smallest. Finn is behind Chewbakka, yet his head is as big as Chewbakka's head and upper torso combined. Janna and her horse are little taller than C3PO, though they appear to be standing almost side by side. Everyone is staring a different direction, and nobody really seems to be looking at the same thing. Perhaps most odd, Rey blocks a giant lightsaber half the thickness of her head, which doesn't appear to have any beginning or end to it! In addition to the warping of perspective, there is a curious warping of depth as well here. As eye catching as all of this is, it almost seems messy. Too busy or something.

Hard as I tried, I could not locate a definitive square and compass in this picture. In fact, the image seems to toy with the person looking for it! The giant lightsabers grab your eyes initially, but are hopelessly angled to never resemble a perfect square and compass. When lines appear to cross, they do so awkwardly, and are not exact. The only place I thought there might be one, was right where Rey's head is. The Millennium Falcon almost seems to provide a lower triangle, to meet an upper triangle. But trust me, there are no straight lines forming a square and compass in there, though it does look like there may with the naked eye. Kylo Ren's eye covered in this very spot definitely toys further with the amateur sleuth searching for occult symbols. But no, this poster is much more sophisticated than that. It is worth noting though, that Kylo Ren stares at the viewer. I believe he is supposed to be a reflection of YOU, and that is why he is the largest. He is telling you something. By having one eye concealed, he is not saying "this is where the square and compass is!" What he is actually saying is, "you are only looking at HALF the picture. An entire half is missing!" By the time you are done reading this, there will be absolutely no doubt this is true.

If we step back and ask, "what sticks out the most here?" For me, it was the overly large reddish lightsaber. So I asked myself, what if I follow that lightsaber off of the page? Then I noticed the body language of Zorii Bliss. She is aiming both guns at the two lightsabers. Not to shoot them, but to say, "follow these!"

Observe the X Wing Fighter [there's that X again]. The left side of the "X" forms a V, which seems to mimic the larger V of the two giant lightsabers. This is an incomplete X, so the X wing seems to be hinting that there is another half to the right. Notice also that "big" Rey is staring at something to her right we cannot see. The Sith ship chasing the X wing has wings which seem to POINT, as if to say, "focus on that thing!"

Tiny Rey touches Zorii's leg with the tip of her lightsaber. Zorii touches Rey's larger lightsaber with BOTH the tips of her guns. She is POINTING at these larger lightsabers, drawing attention to them. Finally, the smaller Kylo Ren uses his cross shaped lightsaber to POINT at the spot where the 2 larger lightsabers cross [the horizontal green line I placed there will have significance later, but for now note that it is about level with the point of Kylo Ren's lightsaber].

Following the straight lines of these lightsabers to the right reveals a large X, which is centered exactly where the image is cropped. What is emerging from behind this large X? At first, I thought it looked like a reddish planet - but is more oval shaped than perfectly circular. There is a subtle whirling motion we get from the curved light emanating in the center, which both of the little Kylo Rens now seem to be emphasizing with the cross points - almost complimenting the "sun wheel" effect. The platform on which little Kylo/Rey battle seems to have been destroyed by this emerging planet/whirling object. Could this be a reference to the Planet X, which was somewhat alluded to in my earlier blog covering "the Force Awakens?" Another name for Planet X is "Nibiru."

Nibiru (also transliterated Neberu, Nebiru) is a term in the Akkadian language, translating to "CROSSING" or "point of transition"...In Babylonian astronomy, the term Nibiru (in cuneiform spelled dné-bé-ru or MULni-bi-rum) refers to the equinox and the astronomical objects associated with it. - Wiki

This all seemed pretty revelatory to me at first, but I could not shake the nagging feeling that this was a large riddle which was as yet unsolved. What is big Rey looking at? I tried a couple other arrangements, hoping for something a bit more blatant and indisputable.

The reason I knew immediately that our poster was designed to be lined up this way, is because of the details it reveals vertically, directly where the 2 images connect. These details are not revealed properly unless the two images are cropped very neatly and accurately - and magnified at the proper resolution [I saved these at 300dpi].

If you look just below the center where the lightsabers meet, you'll see a pyramid shape. This is a hat, worn on the head of what looks like a bearded wizard. We're going to zero in on this, and see what else is revealed at the bottom/center of the image.

This is the very bottom/center of the last image you saw. The center is exactly where the two posters are cropped together. Who the hell is that? Exactly half of this thing's face is on the left side of the poster and on the right. It only forms a full face when the images are cropped together this way and magnified. You may not notice it right now, but there are also at least 3 tiny demonic faces running up and down the center of this image, in addition to the saggy face.

Adjusting the contrast reveals different details, highlighting what I mentioned earlier about the depth and proportion being messed with in this image.

If you look to the right of the green #1, that is the left eye of a giant smiling pig face! Just above number 2 is his left nostril. To the left of the #2 is the left side of the pig's giant grin. To the right of #2 you can now see more clearly in the shadows, a sort of "totem pole" of demonic shapes [we will see much clearer examples of this later]. To the left of number 3 is what I call the "Ronald McDonald Lizard Goblin face." You can clearly make out its eyes, fangs, demonic/clown-like grin, pointy Goblin ears, and the outline of a hairdo that reminded me of Ronald McDonald. He's also got a cross around his neck.

Now, if you think you saw a mouse face for a second, well you did! Not necessarily a "true to life" mouse face, but a cartoon rendition, somewhat in the tradition of Mickey Mouse - but with bulging eyes. The nose is about where the cross is, and the right ear is directly to the left of the #3. If you stare really close to the brighter colors, then slowly move back from the screen and focus on the darker colors, the mouse face appears more readily.

Here we can see more clearly Mr McDonald's upside down cross - a little grinning monkey face on top of it, who's head is the shape of the head of a penis! Just above that is another tiny monkey looking face, between Mr McDonald's eyes. This runs vertically along that demonic "totem pole" I mentioned earlier, which is exactly where the image is cropped. The totem pole is just a constant reminder that the image was intended to be arranged this way.

[You must click/tap on images in order to view them at the proper resolution. If you do not click/tap on them first, you may miss the finer details being pointed out]

Here we have panned up slightly higher, zoomed out a bit, and adjusted the contrast again. What you are looking at is a demonic, naked, kneeling body. To the left of #1 is a tiny head resembling some sort of grinning walrus type creature. Below the #1 is the right shoulder. To the right of #2 is the head of a penis - same one we pointed out in the last picture, at the top of the cross around Lizard McDonald's neck [which seems to form his canine-esque nose]. Below the #2 is a hand [palm down], presenting the phallus. The shaft of this phallus runs directly along the center of the page, where our totem pole reveals little demonic shapes/faces running up and down. To the left of #3 is a hand, mirroring the one on the opposite side of the cropped image - which is between 2 kneeling legs - and you can see the feet as well - towards the middle of the thighs, where they would proportionately be when someone is facing us in a kneeling position. The two hands, and positioning of the legs almost resembles a woman spreading her vigina in a porn magazine, but with a phallus instead placed between the legs.

I think it is important to briefly address the question of "why?" right now...why all of this demonic imagery and grotesque sexual reference? The short answer as I know it, has to do with these "mysteries schools" I alluded to earlier and the Freemasons. Freemasons borrow liberally from various esoteric traditions, and in ancient Egypt the phallus was big [pun intended]. There are also hints of the Knights Templars and their confessions of worshipping a head, called Baphomet, under interrogation. Mr Goblin Faced McDonald's head is placed right on top of a phallus. I don't think that was an accident!

Amid these conflicting views, all merely speculative, it will not be uncharitable or unreasonable to suggest that the Baphomet, or skull of the ancient Templars, was, like the relic of their modern Masonic representatives, simply an impressive symbol teaching the lesson of mortality, and that the latter has really been derived from the former. - my freemasonry.com

The obelisk is an ancient phallic symbol, as is the pyramid which faces upwards - in certain contexts. The sexual symbolic aspect within certain branches of Freemasonry is much more integral to their tradition than many would suppose. It is a very small leap from that mysterious sexual force within the Illuminist/Luciferian context to the allegorical "force" presented in the Star Wars films. Since Freemasonic symbolism is being heavily injected into Star Wars posters, clearly an extreme faction of Freemasons is producing them. It seems they want to use their control of mass media to shove their demented, sadistic, dehumanizing pleasures into our faces. Kind of like spiritual rape on a mass scale, where the victim is so desensitized, they are not completely aware of what they are being subjected to.

Continuing up the center of the poster, just above the point where the lightsabers meet, we find more demonic images along the center totem pole.

The head of a horned devil can be seen to the left of #1. Within this head, we see smaller demonic faces [I hate to overuse words such as "demonic" but there really is no better description of what we are looking at here!] To the left of #2 is a long horn, extending from the devil head. To the left of #3 is a small demon head, who's chin is the exact point where the X-wing fighters meet. Here you can really see why the cropping/merging of these images must be exact, in order to reveal details - and that care was taken by the designer(s) of this image to ensure these details would be revealed when properly aligned. Looks kinda like a tiny blind-folded head, just where the X-Wing tips meet. I did not number this one, but if you simply move your eyes straight up the center towards the top of the image, you will see a smiling beast with little horns, somewhat reminiscent of Jabba the Hut's Gammorean Guards. Try going close, then back up slowly to help reveal some of these details.

Just when I thought things could not get any creepier, a huge snake appeared, to the left of #1, where its right eye is. We have now solved the mystery of what Rey is looking at! This is not intended to be a "true to nature" picture of a snake, but a stylized version made to resemble a demonic [there's that word again] phallus. I mentioned in previous blogs how the serpent can be representative of the phallus. The serpent also represents wisdom, and it is crawling down from above. If you recall in the film, there are only 2 times Rey uses the Force to heal, ala Jesus. The first time is when she encounters a large wounded Serpent!

Down the center of the head of this giant serpent is another large face, conjuring a wrathful Odin motif, with smaller demonic faces running down the center.

Down by the #2 is Mr wizard man we looked at earlier, channeling the serpentine forces from above. This, if anything, probably best symbolizes what is going on here. A symbolic inversion of the serpent's path through the Tree of Life up to the crown of Kether. A pulling down of dark dualistic energies to the material plane, down into the realm of Lilith. This came up a bit in the last blog I did on "The Last Jedi."

I presented a theory earlier about a metaphorical "Planet X" emerging from behind the points where the lightsabers are meeting. We noted that it appeared to be more OVAL than perfectly circular. Now, with this snake aspect added, we have a new interesting concept to consider. Perhaps the oval object was representative of a giant egg? Anyone who has studied Crowley's Tarot deck and its symbolism for a length of time, is familiar with this concept of the "orphic egg," as it appears in many of the cards. Here is the description contained within the image above:

"THE ORPHIC EGG. The ancient symbol of the Orphic Mysteries was the serpent-entwined egg, which signified Cosmos as encircled by the fiery Creative Spirit. The egg also represents the soul of the philosopher; the serpent, the Mysteries. At the time of initiation the shell is broken and man emerges from embryonic state of physical existence wherein he had remained through the fetal period of philosophical regeneration."

Remember the green line I mentioned earlier in the above image? I traced a perfect horizontal line from left to right in this exact spot, then cropped the image below it. I then merged 4 of these and the result was, I believe, the final version of this image:

[Maltese Cross, early symbol for the Catholic Military Order Knights Hospitallers, Knights of Malta, or Order of Saint John]

The above image reinforces the X symbolism observed earlier, and then some. Chewbakka's crossbow contains a horizontal line which is reflected nearly perfectly, confirming that this is probably one way the image was meant to be cropped. If you zoom in and turn your head sideways, you will also notice more strange forms and shapes running along the horizontal crop of the image, in a similar fashion as the vertical "totem pole" observed earlier. There is much that can be said of the above, but I think you get the point by now with regard to the phalluses, snakes, pyramids, and Xs. Let's move on.

Cropping a duplicate of the image in this manner finally reveals shapes which can reasonable be assumed to form a square and compass. The upper [truncated] triangle is formed by the thicker/reddish lightsabers, while the lower is formed by the platform tiny Rey and Kylo Ren battle upon. But this is also a giant 3-D pyramid, which we are seeing from the bottom. Big Rey's blue lightsabers form 2 sides, while the platforms provide the 3rd and fourth sides - making a SQUARE - which is the shape of the bottom of the pyramid. Now we can see what Poe Dameron is shooting at. His own beam connects with itself, emphasizing the center column of the image, which forms the far side of the giant 3-D pyramid - which would actually bend inwards, forcing the viewer to warp their perspective of the beam, which bends OUTWARDS. Again, perspectives are being warped all over the place, to activate your "right brain" vision. This echoes the Chinese poster we saw earlier, where a couple of the star destroyers formed pyramids who's underside was viewable, indicating we are looking up at the bottom of them. Obviously, this means we are not at the top of the allegorical hierarchical pyramid of society, but below the tip where the all seeing eye resides.

This image reveals even more clearly, smaller details along the vertical line where the images are cropped together, confirming that the creators of this poster deliberately embedded aspects which could only be revealed when a duplicate is placed next to it. Let's take a closer look.

At the very bottom center we find an owl, with human-like eyes. The left eye is to the right of #1 if you haven't noticed already. To the left of #2 is the beak, which also has a demonic face inside of it. To the left of #3 is the owl's right ear. #4 is some silly little cartoon looking insect popping out from the top of the owl's head.

Now, we observed the "totem pole" effect in the other cropped version of this poster. Here we are seeing it much more clearly, and as I stated, this is telling you "yes, you are supposed to crop these images and place them side by side in this manner." Otherwise, why would 1/2 of all of these tiny, intricate images be sitting there along the vertical border of the poster unseen? The designers of this poster obviously know people like myself are looking for occult symbols and images, so they are GIVING them to us. Some of it is revealing, but I am also sure there is a level of mockery to it as well. Mocking the amateur sleuth looking for clues.

I don't believe this totem pole is the work of an artist per se. It seems to me someone created an algorithm, which spits out a combination of images which are fed into it in a vertical manner. Perhaps images of devils, demons, trolls, wolves, lizards, Mickey Mouse, Ronald McDonald, penises, crosses, etc are fed into the algorithm - spits them out at random, mixing features together - giving us the seemingly endless demonic shapes and cartoonish looking creatures. The larger images, such as this owl, were probably more deliberately placed.

You must tap/click on the images first in order to magnify them at the proper resolution. It will then open up on a blank page and you can zoom in/save without resolution loss. Press "back" in order to return to the blog. If you do not do this, you may not see the finer details pointed out, or they may be very blurry.]

The owl is a known Freemasonic symbol representing the idea of "seeing in the dark," since owls are nocturnal and hunt at night. The idea of "seeing in the dark" and the "wise" connotation is appealing to Freemasonic Illuminists because it falls right in line with their allegories. This is why a tiny owl is placed on the US $1 bill, pictured above.

Some of you may have heard of the "cremation of care" ritual which allegedly takes place at Bohemian Grove in California every year. This ritual is conducted in front of a giant owl and sacrifices are either made - or are symbolically represented in their bizarre rituals. This is a story which was largely exposed by Alex Jones, as far as I know - and is what probably made him famous. Although I do not trust Alex Jones myself, the happenings at the Grove are more or less acknowledged as strange and occult at this point, by mainstream society - although details of what occurs there remain mysterious.

Scrolling up a little higher above the owl, we find a dark temple of sorts. To the right of #1 is a demonic face hanging over the entrance, which has a subtle ancient Egyptian headress. A quick glance above this reveals several phallic looking shapes. #2 looks like a tiny warrior with shield and weapon, making his way towards the temple. To the left of #3 is a silly face engraved into the top of the temple, with a sort of mustache - which also functions as a phallic symbol. As I said, these images appear to be generated randomly via some sort of algorithmic programing, along the center of the image exactly where the left and right sides are cropped together. Pyramid-esque shapes can also be seen enclosing the temple.

Scrolling up from the temple, we find what I call "demonic granny." On top of her head there is what looks like a little demonic bunny face. Can this get any stranger? I'm not going to even try and find a deeper meaning to some of these images because, as I said, I believe many of them are randomly generated just to emphasize the border of the two cropped images. Obviously, they figured while they are drawing attention to this border, they might as well make it as creepy as possible!

Scrolling up a bit further, we can see what looks like another creature from an 8-bit Nintendo video game to the right of the #1. #2 emphasizes Poe Dameron's lazer beams, which draws attention to the center column formed when the two images are cropped together properly - but if you look at the larger version of this above, it is also letting you know that this vertical line forms the back corner of the larger pyramid we pointed out earlier. This beam is also very useful in lining up the two posters side by side accurately - that is probably another reason it is there.

Scrolling up higher reveals this guy. I don't know what to call him, but he doesn't look very nice does he? We see several little demonic faces/shapes running down the center vertically, along our demonic Totem Pole.

Here at the top of the large pyramid shape, we find it appears truncated, as it was in the "Last Jedi" poster covered in a previous blog. The star destroyer at the top/center seems to resemble an eye, which is laughably fitting.

This concludes part 1 of a 2 part blog series on "The Rise of Skywalker." I'd like to end this by sort of wrapping everything up coherently, but I honestly can't. My purpose here was to simply lay it all out, provide some opinions regarding the symbolism, and just let you make your own interpretation.

Who's Watching the Watchers of Watchmen?

"I wrote a randomizing algorithm, to deter amateur sleuths looking for any kind of pattern..." - Adrian Veidt, a.k.a. Ozymandias

The above quote is one of many "self aware" comments made in HBO's 2019 Watchmen series. Indeed, the storytelling style can often feel driven by "a randomizing algorithm," jumping around in time and space, from fiction to non-fiction, from one shocking racial/conspiratorial topic to the next, leaving the viewer confused as to where anything begins and ends. All the while, applying a steady stream of emotional "hot buttons," to keep viewers engaged. By the time we think all of the loose ends are finally tied up, we've been subjected to such a kaleidoscopic torrent of information, it's just a lot easier to let our "Watchmen freak friend" or the New York times interpret what we just saw. And it's safer, especially where racial matters are concerned, because if someone accuses us of being "racist" in our interpretation, we can always blame the person who's point of view we are parroting! So at the risk of being consolidated into any number of negative stereotypical categories myself by offering my own unbiased point of view, here are a few things that I saw in the series which I felt were worth pointing out.

"The color purple has been associated with royalty, power and wealth for centuries. In fact, Queen Elizabeth I forbad anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it." - livescience.com

The above image of Adrian Veidt shows him wearing a crude version of the all seeing eye within a pyramid, a symbol widely associated with the Illuminati. If you've read some of my blogs on the recent Star Wars film posters, we cover how the pyramids embedded covertly within them have the capstone removed, in the position of the head usually. Here, Veidt's head is ABOVE the capstone - which has NOT been removed. This reflects his narcissistic God complex. He's even got a golden halo around his head! This corresponds with the belief that the Illuminati worship Lucifer, that is, the secular intelligence within man. Veidt worships his own intellect. The color gold represents divinity and the light of the sun. [Lucifer = Light] Purple, as stated above, has traditionally been associated with royalty [think of Prince, and his "Purple Reign."] Veidt is played by the great British actor Jeremy Irons, who portrays an American in the series. Although Irons is perfectly capable of using a convincing modern American accent, his stuffy British elitist personality blasts right through his intentionally flimsy American accent. In this way, he embodies a sort of "Monty Python caricature" of the comic book mad scientist bad guy. A mockery of the "power mad conquering European" stereotype, with no regard for human lives or their suffering.

"The Moscow Signal was a reported microwave transmission, varying between 2.5–4 gigahertz, directed at the Embassy of the United States, Moscow from 1953–1976, resulting in an international incident. The US government eventually determined it was probably an attempt at espionage, and that the concerning health effects on embassy staff were incidental, though biological effects on humans from microwave transmission are apparent." - Wiki

The character Wade Tillman [aka Looking Glass] wears a tinfoil hat. He does this because of a trauma he suffered during "11/2" [an obvious reference to 9/11] Weird Al mocks the "tinfoil hat" wearing conspiracy theorists in the image above. This was more of an 80s thing, reflecting the Watchman's heavy nostalgic references. This stereotype of the "tinfoil hat conspiracy theorist" seems to date at least as far back as the Moscow Signal story, briefly summarized above. The fact is, certain frequencies are known to affect the human brain and body in various ways, and can be lethal - which is why we are told not to stand right in front of a microwave while it is on. This is the same reason we limit ourselves to X Ray exposure, or the ultra violet rays of the sun. Now, a tinfoil hat may not protect us from any such types of threats, but "Tinfoil Hat Guy" is still a fairly effective stereotype to consolidate people into, who's character we want to categorically assassinate. You see, once you are "tinfoil hat guy," nothing you say will be taken seriously anymore by the suggestible masses, even if the information you have is verifiable! This is why Agent Laurie Blake keeps calling Tillman "mirror guy" with a mocking tone. She's reminding the audience that he is a "tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist," so nothing he says is to be taken seriously. The purpose here is to ENFORCE NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES.

During one of many flashback scenes, we see a young Wade Tillman on 11/2/1985, as a young Jehovah's Witness. The Jehovah's Witness' are a sort of cult offshoot of Christianity, known for knocking on doors to hand out their Watchtower magazine, and for going out and attempting to lure youth away from negative mainstream pop culture. According to a New York times article published in 11/29/1984,

"Fundamentalist preachers of all faiths have long warned about the evils of contemporary culture. But for the Jehovah's Witnesses, the message is more difficult to get across these days because of the popularity of the most famous Witness of all - Michael Jackson, whose rock music and videos have made him one of contemporary culture's biggest stars."

While Wade Tillman is attempting to convert some debaucherous teens, he is lured into a "funhouse" and a woman attempts to give him a blowjob. But just before she does, she gets him to strip down to his underwear and then runs off with his clothes. While the song "Careless Whisper" plays in the background, the 11/2 frequency incident happens, and all the mirrors in the funhouse shatter, leaving Tillman on the floor, bleeding, and shocked. This is the reason he begins to wear a tinfoil hat. The song "Careless Whisper" continues to play in the background of many scenes of the Watchmen series, subtly carrying with it the trauma felt by Wade Tillman on that terrible night. But there is another level of trauma at work here.

The Watchmen series came out just before Christmas, 2019. The "present day" sequences also take place just before Christmas, 2019. A film called "Last Christmas" came out around this same time, and was critically panned. The music of George Michael is of course, all over it. George Michael died on Christmas, 2016. I spoke about how the latest Star Wars trilogy films were being released around Christmas, and I suggested this was done for occult reasons. Christmas has pagan roots, and is probably the most emotional time of the year for most Americans. The combination of Christmas and George Michael brings deep emotional feelings of loss to many people, as Michael was loved by almost anyone who grew up hearing his songs in the 80s. His sister Melanie Panayiotou then died on December 25th, 2019.

Now, mix together Tillman's traumatic experience - the shock of being stripped naked/shamed in public as a virgin, just before the 9/11 type disaster occurs, the shattered mirrors/ego, the piles of bodies at the carnival, the giant one eyed squid emitting its sonic blasts, The Jehovah's Witnesses and their often questionable public reputation, the themes of Judgement Day, the threat of Nuclear War, Michael Jackson's questionable reputation, Michael Jackson's horrible death, George Michael's music/Death on Christmas, Christmas itself and all of the emotions associated with it, Melanie Panayiotou's death on Christmas...what we have here is a profound mixture of traumatic events - both fictional and historical, rolled all into this one character.

Consider all of the above in context with the themes of mesmerism and mind control portrayed in the series for a moment. Consider the collage of images used in Tillman's "pod" interrogation room. I think we have some very serious questions we need to ask, regarding where this series is REALLY coming from here.

The Watchmen TV series isn't really a story about superheroes. In fact, the only character who actually has "magical powers" in it is Dr Manhattan, who was portrayed in the original film adaptation by Billy Crudup [pictured above]. The HBO series is more of a science fiction story, with a very strong racial theme. One of the many aspects to this racial theme, involves the switching of Dr Manhattan's racial appearance from that of a white man to black. According to the plot, he does this in order to be more appealing to a black woman he has decided to fall in love with [Angela Abar/Sister Night.] But the writers of this series obviously had a larger reason for making Dr Manhattan black, which culminates in the series finale. I will explain this in greater detail later in the blog.

While the racial themes in this series dwarf many of the others, there are also strong references to Christianity made throughout, both symbolically and within the dialogue. From Sister Night's "evil nun" costume, to the Jesus/walk on water allegory associated with Dr Manhattan within the dialogue of several scenes. In fact, the series ends with Angela Abar/Sister Night attempting to walk on water, after swallowing a chicken egg containing the life essence of Dr Manhattan! The association between god/Jesus and the powers of Dr Manhattan are pretty crudely forced in this series on several levels.

[If you are on a smartphone, you must tap on the above image first, in order to enlarge it at the correct resolution]

[Astrological symbol for the Sun.]

Upon Dr Manhattan's head is a symbol representing the hydrogen atom. The larger circle represents an orbiting electron around the proton/nucleus, which is the larger circle in the center. This is almost identical to an ancient symbol for the Sun - which is simply a circle with a dot in the middle. Jesus was "the SON" of god, the SON of man. Researchers such as Jordan Maxwell have noted the correlations between ancient Sun worship and Christianity.

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12

The idea that Jesus represented "the sun" and that the 12 apostles represent "the 12 houses of the zodiac" is a fascinating study worthy of pursuit. From this perspective, the seemingly dramatic, frequently caricatured miracle of Jesus "walking on water" becomes a much less campy, increasingly poetic allegory. Does not the sun "walk" through our sky for 12 hours, in theory? Does not the sun leave a shimmering trail of light upon the coastal oceans as it sets in the west? Could not this shimmering light then be said to allegorically "walk" upon the water, as it descends downward into the underworld?

THE PENIS ISSUE

"I'm gonna squeeze your man like a grape, and drink him all up" - Senator Keene, just before attempting to suck the life essence out of Dr Manhattan

"Moore recalled that he was unsure if DC would allow the creators to depict the character as fully nude, which partially influenced how they portrayed the character. Gibbons wanted to tastefully depict Manhattan's nudity, selecting carefully when full frontal shots would occur and giving him "UNDERSTATED" genitals—like a classical sculpture—so the reader would not initially notice it." - Wiki

When Dave Gibbons refers to Dr Manhattan's "understated" genitals, in the tradition of "classical sculpture," I assume this refers to Ancient Greek sculptures such as the one pictured above. So let's be perfectly clear, that one of the creators of Dr Manhattan specifically depicted the character as WHITE and with UNDERSTATED genitals.

"Stereotype: a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing." - dictionary.com

To say that all white men have "understated genitals" like the ones depicted in the classical sculpture above would be a stereotype, just like saying that "ALL black men have large penises" is a stereotype. I know a woman who only dates black men and she has told me that the idea that all black men have huge penises is a myth. This is not to say that plenty of black men DON'T have large penises! It may be true that black men have larger penises than most other races, I don't know. But as fans of Watchmen know very well, Dr Manhattan's penis is part of his "costume." Therefore, he has not just been made black in the series, he has been given a larger penis, something which is shown clearly in several scenes. Most notably, just before a white supremacist states loudly to Angela Abar/Sister Night "I'm gonna squeeze your man like a grape, and drink him all up." What he is saying there allegorically is, "I am going to take that black penis and all of the superior strength that comes with it, and transfer it into my white body. Then I will be superior to the black man in EVERY way and will have "god like" powers!

While this dialogue is going on, Dr Manhattan kneels within a WHITE cage and his penis is shown several times, so we are reminded that it is LARGE. Why do people kneel? Usually, this is done to worship one's god or to show subservience to a figure of authority. Again, the religious aspects combined with social stereotypes of racial inferiority/superiority are being amplified all over the place here. This is another exercise in stereotype enforcement, there is no "higher moral message" here.

[Senator Keene, wearing the same "underwear" worn by Dr Manhattan as he was depicted in the comic]

Consider again Senator Keene's crude reference to a grape, Dr Manhattan's penis/essence, and drinking it all up. Dr Manhattan's genitals being "the grape," which is squeezed revealing the essence [wine] which Senator Keene then intends to drink up. Not long after this, Senator Keene is reduced to a thick liquid pool of a, "wine-colored" substance when the transfer fails, which Dr Manhattan touches, resulting in his final "miracle" that helps fold lady Trieu's plan, via her white father! [as I hinted earlier, this all gets too involved to cover completely in one blog, but watch the series again with all of this in mind and it should all become obvious]

The purpose of this scene, and probably the entire series itself, is to encourage the audience on multiple sides of the racial coin to relate as strongly as possible to their most negative racial insecurities. While the show uses plenty of legitimate history to illustrate these points, it uses an equal amount of fiction to blow them up to ridiculous proportions. At that point, it's not a history lesson anymore, it's exploitation and sensationalism! So you see, the purpose of making Dr Manhattan assume the form of a black man was to set this final scene up, because obviously the racial aspect would have had a lot less impact had Billy Crudup been kneeling naked in that white prison cell - although technically it is the same white character. It is the SYMBOLIC IMAGE of a black man kneeling in a white cage, awaiting his essence to be sucked out into a white supremacist politician that is crucial here to the writers of this show.

[I did not create the above meme, it is being included here merely to demonstrate the manner in which many view the Trump administration, and the heated racial environment which has been created around it. Whether this is a legitimate or artificial media manufactured environment is not the question here, but that it exists, and Watchmen is expanding upon it]

The fact Dr Manhattan appears blue merely abstracts the imagery, giving journalists an excuse to overlook what can easily be regarded as blacksploitation, and probably whitesploitation as well! I have read quite a few articles on this show, and the media has definitely taken on an extremely lopsided "benefit of the doubt" perspective on this series. Why has the media so unanimously translated all the ambiguous racial symbolism in this show as "positive?"

[Stigmata symbology, just before Lady Trieu is killed in the final episode of the Watchmen series]

"Blaxploitation or blacksploitation is an ethnic subgenre of the exploitation film that emerged in the United States during the early 1970s. The films, while popular, suffered backlash for disproportionate numbers of stereotypical film characters showing bad or questionable motives, including criminals, etc. However, the genre does rank among the first in which black characters and communities are the heroes and subjects of film and television, rather than sidekicks or villains or victims of brutality. The genre's inception coincides with the rethinking of race relations in the 1970s." - wiki

Regina King plays Angela Abar, the main character in the first Watchmen series. In this alternate reality, a law was passed requiring cops to wear masks, "for their own protection." Abar's masked police identity is "Sister Night." She took this name from what appears to be a Blackploitation film, which she saw as a child living in Vietnam. This is not a real film, it is a fictional one based in the alternate universe of the Watchmen series. In this alternate universe Roger Ebert, according to watchmen.fandom.com, calls this type of movie a "Black Mask" film. Sounds like a thinly veiled term for "Blackploitation" to me.

The word "Sister," in her alias, is a double entendre, where in one sense she's a "sista," in another - a caricature of some type of religious figure. This is similar to a poster advertising the 1992 film "Sister Act," starring Whoopi Goldberg.

A caricature is generally a mockery, something we might expect in a comedy. Although the Watchmen series does contain some dry humor, it deals with very serious, often violent, historical American racial subject matter. Seems like a precarious approach to telling a story during this heated racial era of the Trump administration, but perhaps that is the point of this series - to push people's racial insecurity buttons. It's easy to see why, if you assume for a moment, that all mainstream entertainment is a form of social conditioning, designed to help create the exact divisive political climate we see today. But as long as we buy the lie that we are truly "free," such a perspective can only be translated as a direct affront to our existing worldview, before it can even be considered rationally. In this way, we become "the Watchmen," guarding the walls of our own ignorant society.

Nun: a woman member of a religious order, especially one bound by vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. - dictionary.com

Modern films such as "the Nun" play off of the widely held negative American belief that nuns are creepy, repressed, delusional woman who live miserable, solitary lifestyles. In fact, when I googled the word "nun" while researching this blog, the above image was the first result. Looks more like Marilyn Manson than a nun to me! Clearly the nun aspect of Sister Night's character is designed to make her appear more demonic, or threatening - rather than saintly. The OPPOSITE of what a nun is supposed to be, by definition!

I Googled Angela Abar's last name, Abar, and some interesting results came up. The very second one on the very first page was a 70s Blacksploitation film called Abar. Here is how one reviewer on IMDb.com described it:

"The movie is actually racist in that it makes every single white person racist against blacks, even when (not to give anything away) really bad things happen to the black family. There's not a single white person in the whole movie that pretty much wouldn't fit right at home with KKK."

I have not seen this Abar film, but obviously it contains similar white supremacist type themes found in the Watchmen series. There is even reference in the above advertisement to "the first black superman," which mirrors the "first masked/hooded vigilante" in the Watchmen series - a character who also happens to be Angela Abar's grandfather, Hooded Justice.

Abar, according to Wikipedia was "a Nubian queen of the Kingdom of Kush dated to the Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt." Nubia "is a region along the Nile river encompassing the area between Aswan in southern Egypt and Khartoum in central Sudan. It was the seat of one of the earliest civilizations of ancient Africa, as the Kerma culture lasted from around 2500 BCE until its conquest by the New Kingdom of Egypt under pharaoh Thutmose I around 1500 BCE." The above image acknowledges the heated racial debates surrounding the racial history of ancient Egypt, suggesting it has been "stolen" or appropriated by non black races. I am not here to argue whether it was or not, it's just another racial hot button the show is pushing!

Apparently, this name "Abar" has a very strong historical association with black heritage. I even found a website for an "anti racist" organization, using this name "Abar." It seems the writers of Angela Abar's character wanted to emphasize her racial identity from as many angles as possible. I realize this show is derived from a comic book, but at what point do these racial references become redundant and enter into questionable territory? We know Angela Abar is a black woman. How does it benefit the story to constantly remind the viewer of her racial identity? We've got eyes! If anything, it takes emphasis away from other aspects of the story, and forces us to steer our focus disproportionately upon the VISUAL, over the intellectual.

Is this show trying to impart some sort of higher moral lesson to the viewer by encouraging them to metaphorically don their own "black mask," so that we can see what the American black person sees and sympathize with their daily struggles? Or is this being done in order to ENCOURAGE the audience to mentally RE-INTEGRATE these negative racial stereotypes that the American civil rights movements have fought so hard to overcome? This is NOT my attempt to lessen the historical atrocities suffered by black Americans, but come on! When does a graphic "history lesson" become a "snuff film?" The atrocities of WWII were horrible, and should not be forgotten. But how many times must we watch footage of bodies being bulldozed into a pit until we've got the point? Should we all wear little bulldozer models around our necks to commemorate the atrocities of WWII?

Although Sister Night's face is mostly covered by a hood/robe, her "mask" is actually painted directly on her face, using a dark black color. Supposedly the police in this alternate universe are trying to mask their identity, so that criminals do not figure out who they are and where they live. By painting her face a darker color than her skin, she is not only suggesting that she is a "black person" to everyone, but she is going the extra step to enforce that fact.

Angela Abar's grandfather, Hooded Justice, also painted a mask onto his face, but he chose white in order to HIDE his racial ethnicity. This is because he lived in an older, more outwardly racist America. Therefore, he was hiding his racial identity so that the public would think he is white, and would welcome his heroic efforts, rather than branding him a "violent negro vigilante."

The writers of this show have taken the idea of a "black superhero," and reduced it to a clown. A caricature. A living mockery of the righteous black person. How else can one interpret the meaning behind a character who paints his face white in order to be accepted by, and even RISK HIS LIFE for, the very people who are the source of his oppression? On top of that, he has a homosexual relationship with a white superhero, who fetishizes and objectifies him. This indicates he hates himself, and is a masochist. A black hooded vigilante who walks around with a noose around his neck is like a Jewish vigilante walking around with a big swastika pendent around his neck. He carries this symbol openly on his person, reducing himself to a walking advertisement for the oppression leading to his condition. Juxtapose this against Sister Night's decision to paint her "face mask" dark black, and you've got a kaleidoscope of racial symbols so murky that the best word one could use would be ambiguous.

"Blackface isn't just about painting one's skin darker or putting on a costume. It invokes a racist and painful history." - CNN.com

One of the main symbols associated with Islam in relatively recent times is the star and the crescent moon, with a red background. Part of Angela Abar's false identity as a civilian, is that she owns a bakery, who's symbol is a star and CROISSANT against a red background.

"The Nation of Islam (NOI) is an African American political and religious movement, founded in Detroit, Michigan, United States, by Wallace D. Fard Muhammad on July 4, 1930. Its stated goals are to improve the spiritual, mental, social, and economic condition of African Americans in the United States. Critics have described the theology of the organization as promoting black superiority over whites, antisemitism and anti-LGBT rhetoric. The Southern Poverty Law Center tracks the NOI as a hate group." - Wiki

The connection here to Black Muslim extremism is heavily enforced symbolically by the fact that this is a bakery. Some of you may have never heard of this before, but I remember seeing these bakeries around, and even walked into one as recent as the 90s.

"Your Black Muslim Bakery (YBMB) was a chain of bakeries opened by Yusuf Bey in 1968 in Santa Barbara, California, United States, and relocated to Oakland in 1971. A power broker at the center of a local community, it was held out as a model of African American economic self-sufficiency. However, it was later linked to widespread physical and sexual abuse, intimidation, welfare fraud, and murder...The group was not affiliated with Louis Farrakhan's movement, the Nation of Islam, though early connections and similarities were evident." - Wiki

As you can see, there are very heavy historical references to black Muslim extremism here being made, which is more or less non verbalized in the series and more or less ignored within the critical reviews I've read. That seems strange considering how blatant the symbolism is within the show's main character, and especially considering the strong white supremacist aspect of the plot. Sure, it makes sense that Sister Night and her grandfather [Hooded Justice] would wanna take out the white supremacists, but would we be as amused if her character was overtly presented as a blatant militant political activist? And yet, it is being symbolically associated with her character on multiple levels. Why didn't they just make it part of her character, instead of slipping it in slyly like this, with tacky suggestive symbolism?

"Sister" references the affectionate black "sista" title one one level. "Night" indicates darkness. Her skin is dark. So the name "Sister Night" is referencing her skin tone from 2 different angles. Her name is a constant reminder of her racial identification.

One of the more popular promotional ads has her standing in front of a clock, striking 12. Midnight = Middle of the night = Darkest part of the night = another dark skin reference.

Sister Night is a cop. There is a stereotype in America which more or less states that black people in general get hassled by police disproportionately, often due to "racial profiling." If you've ever heard the song "Fuck the Police" by NWA, that is more or less what it is about. This racist cop stereotype is directly referenced within the dialogue during a flashback scene when Angela's grandfather, Will Reeves, becomes a cop, demonstrating that the writers of the show want this racist cop stereotype to be fresh in the minds of the viewers. This subtly suggests that Angela Bar, as a cop, is a traitor to her own race in title.

Upon conclusion of the last episode, I went out on the internet and started reading what was being said about it. This was something I purposely avoided while watching the series, because I wanted my own opinions and ideas regarding it to be fully formed before viewing the opinions of others. I suspected there would be a campaign in the media to influence HOW people watched it and interpret it. This turned out to be true.

Notice how the "critic ratings" is nearly 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, while the audience rating is about half of that. This means about HALF the people [you and I] watching the show did not like something about it. Are we just not smart enough to understand what the show is all about? Does one need an academic title to have the ability to judge the entertainment shoved into their faces fairly?

Notice how the "critics consensus" above references this "kaleidoscope effect" I was speaking about earlier, but instead they refer to it as "layers of cultural context." They state the show is "not always easy viewing," without explaining why - but immediately go on to use this as a compliment, focusing on the complexity and originality of it. How does the achievement of "originality" justify the inclusion of ubiquitous, ambiguous/negative racial themes/stereotypes in the eyes of these "critics?"

First page Google results for the search term "Watchmen tv series" tries to instruct you on what you "need to know" about it. This suggests that there are things you DON'T need to know. Recalls the famous New York Times quote: "All the news that's FIT to print." Just what news ISN'T fit to print, and why Mr news journalist?

The above images were taken from first page Google results, clearly demonstrating an aggressive effort by the media to control people's perception of the Watchmen series, and maintain damage control upon those negatively reviewing it. Going so far as to create negative stereotypes around those on the left AND the right criticizing it.

Why has the news media been so disproportionately biased in defending the ambiguous/covert racial themes placed in the Watchmen series? Racial ambiguity is quickly condemned in many other contexts. Why is it so unquestionably embraced here? What is this apparent campaign to aggressively consolidate "detractors" of the series into categories designed to render their opinions invalid? It seems discussions along these lines ruins the "magic" of the show, and the media is apparently invested in keeping that magical spell going - by policing, and attempting to control the dialogue/thoughts of those watching it.

This brings us to an interesting topic: mind control. Funny enough, mind control is an important part of the plot in the Watchmen series.

During a flashback scene, a book on "mesmerism for the masses" is found by Hooded Justice when he takes out a gang of Cyclops members [white supremacists], who produce films in their secret compound encoded with subliminal messages. These films are then shown in black movie theaters, driving audience members to attack and commit violence upon one another, via mind control.

What is this series trying to say about the film/entertainment industry here? If such techniques were/are in fact being used, why would individuals so devoid of morality and humanity stop at just one racial group? If these types of individuals exist, they would want to control every type of person, not just blacks. So on one hand, the series seems to be "blowing the whistle" a bit here, but at the same time, using it to stir up the worst racial insecurities in viewers - by making it a RACIAL white/vs black issue, rather than what it probably is in real life today - technology designed to oppress "the masses," as indicated by the book pictured earlier.

The Masses: the ordinary or common people. - Merriam Webster

Hooded Justice/Will Reeves depicted in 2019, using the same mind control/mesmerism techniques to encourage Judd Crawford [white supremacist leader] to Lynch himself from a tree. This episode began with a warning to viewers, that some of the flickering lights may cause seizures in certain people. Is this a hint that there is a level of reality to what is being depicted as fiction here?

"he masterminded a plan to incite black people to commit violent acts to worsen race relation between black people and white people." - https://watchmen.fandom.com

Judd Crawford [played by Don Johnson] hanging himself under mind control from Will Reeves. In the beginning of the Watchmen series, this man is depicted as a close family friend of Angela Abar, and is also a fellow police officer. He turns out to be a 2 faced white supremacist of the highest degree, suggesting that even the nicest, most seemingly NON-RACIST white American men are secretly plotting against the black race.

Jean Smart plays the unlikeable, uptight, sexually frustrated white lady [FBI agent Laurie Blake] who's trying to sniff out Angela Abar's connection to the murder of Judd Crawford. Although it is never explicitly stated, there are hints that Abar and Crawford had an affair before he died. This creates unspoken tension between Abar and Crawford's white supremacist wife. There is also subtle racial tension between Abar and Laurie Blake, who is plainly still in love, or at least in "lust" with Dr Manhattan - illustrated crudely in the scene where she lays down with an absurdly large blue dildo. Again, highlighting the fact that Dr Manhattan was originally depicted with "understated genitals." Does that dildo look "understated" to you?

In this final section, I'm going to focus on a cryptic joke Laurie Blake tells Dr Manhattan when she calls him from the "Blue Booth," which we later find out is going to Lady Trieu, and not Dr Manhattan at all. To be clear, no attempt will be made here to decode this "joke" in reference to the plot of previous Watchmen comics or the film. The focus here will be on the symbolic references in and of themselves, and what they point to in our world today in general.

"There's this guy, he's a bricklayer...he's a real master of his craft."

A bricklayer is a form of mason. Bricklayers perform MASONRY. "The Craft" is another term for "Freemason." "Fellow Craft" is the title of the 2nd degree in Freemasonry. A "Master Mason" is the title of the 3rd degree in the BLUE lodges. I think it is safe to say that this joke is making a reference to a Freemason.

"...this guy has a daughter and he's going to teach her to be a bricklayer because after all, all a man has is his legacy..."

Although Freemasons are typically encouraged to join by a father or relative, females traditionally have much more limited roles in the largely fraternal order. Merriam Webster gives one meaning to the word Legacy as: "a candidate for membership in an organization (such as a school or fraternal order) who is given special status because of a familial relationship to a member." So again, the Freemasonic reference is being enforced repeatedly by this language. This is no surprise given the references to the Illuminati and the New World Order conspiracies mentioned earlier.

"...when he finishes, it’s a beauty. It’s a perfect barbecue. Just the way he drew it in BLUEprints. Only one problem. There’s a brick left over. One single brick. The guy freaks out. He must have done something wrong. He’s gonna have to start all over again. So he picks up his sledgehammer to knock the thing to pieces and his daughter suddenly says ‘daddy wait! I have an idea.’ She picks up the orphan brick and throws it up into the air as high as she can."

The allegory of Christ as the stone which was rejected by the "builders" [Masons] seems to be heavily hinted at here. If this extra brick represents "Christ" then clearly, this mason is not Christian - because he sees the extra "stone" as a mistake, rather than the "capstone" or "cornerstone." Apparently this is a hotly disputed topic, but what if Christ was supposed to represent the "cornerstone" or "capstone" of a pyramid?

The use of the word "orphan" made me wonder if this brick was supposed to represent a character in the series. Angela Abar is an orphan, and it is her car which falls from the sky immediately after Laurie Blake leaves the phone booth. There is then a twinkle in the sky, so as to suggest that whoever she was speaking to, heard her joke and threw the car down to represent the brick which was just thrown in the air by the "daughter" in the joke. [Let's not even get into the part about how Angela Abar's grandfather got into the car before it was picked up and carried into the sky, and how he left his "memories" in it, via Lady Trieu's Nostalgia pills]

"And the woman looks at God and she quietly says ‘I’m the little girl who threw the brick in the air.” And a sound from above, something falling: the brick. God looks up but it’s too late. He never saw it coming. It hits him so hard, his brains shoot out his nose. Game over. He’s dead. And where does God go when he dies? He goes to hell."

This part makes no sense in the literal way because "god" is not flesh and blood, and therefore, cannot be killed with a simple brick, much less go to hell! However, one posing as god in human form could. Perhaps this is a reference to a Freemason, falsely assuming the role of God at the top of the pyramid, where our missing brick/stone may have gone. The one rejected. Following the logic of the Bible, if one rejects the stone representing Christ, one's structure does not stabilize in Christ, and instead stabilizes upon the secular intellect of man. A Luciferian.

Dr Manhattan more or less represents "god in human form" in this series, which basically makes him black/blue Jesus. Everyone either wants a piece of him, or wants to suck out his essence. He is the "false god," and ultimately Angela Abar is the one who eats the egg containing his essence. We don't know if those powers were transferred into her because the show ends before we can see her walk on water, but there seems to be continuity here again in the allegory, although I do not pretend to fully understand it. But then again, this might just be "a randomizing algorithm, to deter amateur sleuths looking for any kind of pattern."

CONSIDERATIONS

This blog was completed just as the Covid-19 outbreak began to dominate the news. I think it is important to note that the Watchmen series seems to echo many aspects of the Covid-19 climate a good month BEFORE it actually broke out. Here is a small list of coincidences to consider:

1: Senator Joe Keene's covert "race war" operation, and anticipated 2020 presidential campaign mirrors the aggressive efforts by the news media to falsely portray Donald Trump (who is running for a 2nd term in 2020) and the "Q-Anon" movement, as a hard right Neo-Fascist organization. The symbolism of a black man (painted blue) kneeling in a white cage before a white supremacist politician seems to predict the "kneeling trend" initiated by the George Floyd murder, and subsequent race riots. Again, what the show appears to be doing is creating negative racial stereotypes designed to enforce a false media narrative which has not yet occurred!

2: Consider the fact that this show is largely centered around the 1921 Tulsa, OK race massacre, and that Donald Trump's first campaign rally of 2020 has been scheduled to occur in Tulsa, OK during the height of racial tensions relating to the George Floyd murder. Again, an example that the creators of this series seemed to have knowledge of political events which had not yet occurred. Was the focus upon the Tulsa massacre within the plot of the series an attempt to shine a light upon an important, lesser known era of American history - or is it being used here to stir up negative racial feelings in preparation of a planned race riot during Trump's 2020 presidential campaign?

3: Themes of distrust and racial leanings by unethical police officers is central to the plot of the Watchmen series. These stereotypes may be enforced in many cases, but to say "all cops are bad" is simply not accurate. Is this another negative stereotype emphasized by the series in order to again, play into a planned series of "race riots" which would be in response to the killing of a black man by a white cop only a few months after the series aired?

4: The use of masks in the series, and the idea that cops must hide their identity in order to prevent criminals from hunting them down is being reflected in current news stories on multiple levels. Although police officer's names are being removed from their uniforms to prevent rioters from tracking them down at their homes [think White Night], their uniforms all have badges that say "POLICE" or other identifying labels. Despite that, news media is publishing stories that enforcement officers with NO identifying badges are committing random acts of violence against protesters [who are ironically, committing all sorts of random violence!]. Is it a coincidence that just a couple months after this series concluded, we would ALL be wearing masks and racial tension/violence would be thick in the air? Don Johnson's character seems particularly designed to enforce the negative stereotype of a 2-faced racist white cop.

5: In the Watchmen series, black Americans who's family trees can be traced back to the Tulsa massacre are offered financial "reparations." This is a cause of racial tension between blacks and whites in the series. Now we see this unfolding in the real world, just months after the series aired.

6: "On June 21, 2020, a member of Wallace's team reported to NASCAR that a noose had been placed in Wallace's garage stall at Talladega Superspeedway...A day after the race, an investigation by the FBI concluded that Wallace was not the victim of a hate crime: the alleged noose was a pull-down rope with a loop that was located on an overhead door, and had been in the garage since the fall Talladega race in 2019." Bubba Wallace is a RACE car driver. [we're talking about RACE here] Note the prominence of the NOOSE in the Watchmen series. The character "Hooded Justice" is lynched (almost to death) in a flashback scene. He then wears a noose around his neck, as part of his costume. As an old man, he uses mind control to get a 2-faced racist cop (played by Don Johnson) to lynch himself. The noose plays a very prominent symbolic role in the series. Was this done partly in anticipation of the false Bubba Wallace media stunt?

7: The fictional "11/2" frequency event, emanating from a giant squid with 1 eye that appears in New York, deployed by Veidt [the illuminati] is extremely loaded. We already mentioned the 11/2 - 9/11 connection - but this idea of a deadly frequency is reflected in the current paranoia over 5G networks. Wade Tillman's character represents that paranoia, and so he is depicted as a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist. The giant squid has 1 eye, reflecting the "Cyclops" symbol used by the fictional Neo Nazi group in the series, symbolically associating the group with the catastrophe. Since the "present day" followers of Cyclops are lead by the crooked "2020 president elect to be" [Senator Keene], this again leads all of the negative connotations within the series directly to this political figure, who is obviously supposed to represent Trump symbolically. 11/2 [November 2nd] just happens to be a few days before the November elections are typically held. Is this show suggesting that around election day 2020 we will see a major catastrophe on the level of 9/11?

It seems to me that the Watchmen series is a perfect example of political propaganda MASKED as entertainment, and that the mainstream news media is invested in making sure that audiences react a particular way to it - to ensure it's effectiveness. When are we going to stop and realize that mental warfare is being utilized by way of "entertainment" upon the public for political purposes? Rarely does the real dangers of deceptive "entertainment" reveal itself so immediately, violently, and perceptively. We'd be wise to pause and 2nd guess our knee jerk reactions to the Covid-19 outbreak and the George Floyd incident - as these incidents are likely "real life" propaganda campaigns designed to provoke those very knee jerk reactions in order to ultimately oppress ALL of us collectively, once we are done warring with one another.
