Only 13? Try 35. I remember when my university chancellor demanded that we all tune into to a film on TV that night. We made a joke about it and stocked up on Pina Colada makings and facepaints in our dorm. The movie? It was called The Day After. At the time millions tuned into the climate change psy-op. Al Gore ran for president two years later on the coat-tails of environmental activism.
Are you sure it was "The Day After"? That was a movie about the aftermath of a nuclear war in the heartland of the USA. There was 'climate change' of course, but that was mainly due to millions of tons of ash in the atmosphere after many cities were vaporized :-).
It aired in 1983. It was mainly produced to scare the living shit out of people and get Reagan out of office (the director of the film, Nicholas Meyer, even stated this!). Ironically, while I was only a youngster when this came out, that movie more than likely set me down a path to being redpilled.
That movie frightened me to my core ... as the years went on, I began to see what kind of bullshit motivates people to put something like that on prime time TV ... by the time I was a teenager, I started to wonder why there were no more scary nuclear war films (frankly, I love them these days) ... then the USSR collapsed seemingly out of nowhere for no reason at all (according to our fucking media)! I recall being 20 years old wondering why in the hell we went from "nuclear war will kill us all; it is inevitable" to "crickets about the subject" in under a decade.
Gore ran in 1988 as a conservative democrat ... I think his wife Tipper (who abandoned him shortly after his second chakra fetish came out) ruined his campaign with her PMRC antics ... I still can't wrap my brain around a Rat wanting to censor filth from music, but I lived through it :-) .
I don't recall Gore being an environmentalist back then ... since he was poll/focus group driven like the scumbag Clintons, I don't think he would have jumped on that bandwagon since those people were still viewed as zany treehuggers in the late 80s. However, you're a bit older than I am it seems (around 8-10 years or so if you were in college in 1983) and would have a much better memory of Gore's first failed campaign.
You know, in retrospect, had Gary Hart won that nomination in '88, there's a chance he would have beaten Bush. Gore always came off as a retard and Dukakis was as exciting as eating paste. It was amazing how quickly Hart's campaign imploded over something that would generate yawns today. You know damn well Bush was behind that revelation.
Yes it is weird to sequence the events of that time, especially because it is in the dark, in terms of internet searches. At the time the most novel thing was to have computer generated calendar images; New Romantic music that was mostly synthesisers, struggling with an ancient typewriter, a mounting pile of magazines in one's room and the advent of Max Headroom on MTV. Al Gore was certainly made out to be widely popular in black communities. I remember him talking about the environment, and there were lots of apparatchicks in the social sphere that wore red stars on their hats, stating that global warming was bad, green party was good (or so it seemed in Scandinavia, where they had their holiday) and that AL Gore was OK. Ronald Reagan was of course, the devil, because he recommended that kids eat more ketchup.
I screwed up one thing :-) ... It wasn't so much the USSR collapsed from out of nowhere ... It was, according to the media fuckers, Mikhail Gorbachev being the rational voice of reason and surrendering since the evildoer Reagan was insane and was ready to launch all of our missiles.
If it wasn't for all of that perestroika and glasnost stuff given to the world by the noble soviets, we all would surely be dead ... Or something like that.
For whatever reason, I remember when Gorbachev was in the USA for a State dinner with the Reagans. The media seemed obsessed with pointing out that Gorbachev was wearing a suit while the evil, capitalist pig Reagan was wearing a tuxedo (this indicating our obsession with excess or some other wacky communist opinion presented as fact).
What's hilarious is that Russian collusion was a-ok with libs back then. Ted Kennedy was corresponding with the Soviets to help undermine the Reagan Administration. Nobody in the media cared.
this guy is nucking futs!!! so are those that pay any mind to the garbage he spews.....
