For some reason, I just thought of a disturbing show I watched as a child, and was frightened by. It focused on the predictions of Nostradamus, and the show ended with a madman from the Middle East sending nukes to USA, and there would be years of pain and suffering, but when it was over, we would experience the golden age of peace and contentment. Does anyone else remember this show? I’m pretty sure it aired on HBO back around 80-82.

Interesting, 1981, the same year as The Act Became Real accused Reagan of dooming us to nuclear holocaust in accordance with the prophecies of Nostradamus, this must be where they got the idea from. You can listen to this song today and pretend they're talking about Trump instead of Reagan and it fits 100%.
I’ve never heard this song before. Is he saying, “Betrayal of Reality?”
Is it this one?

Yes, wow. It freaked me out. I now know that the future can be changed via collective consciousness, but as a child, it scared the hell out of me.
I remember it. Scary shit
I saw it too. Orson Wells.

Yes, it was probably Orson that gave it the five star creep factor. That voice.
My recollection it was an episode of “in search of” on nova with Lenard Nimoy but I have not been able to find they one I remember watching. I recall one scene where someone riding a tractor wearing a turban was the ‘evil’ character (not trying to make a personal statement) also seems like they had suggestions of ayatollah khomeini and or Muammar Gaddafi. The H channel has made so many version of the stories but I’m so you. I remember the projections being vivid.
Fear porn! I guess it worked
