According to David Icke TPV might not survive longer than a few more weeks if people do not support it a whole lot more. Come on people ! Pledge your 1 or 2 monthly pounds or wathever you can afford. Spread the word around.
Just give them your fucking money!!
It’s basically impossible in Britain to compete independently in any industry that is controlled by major corporations. Let alone one that has the overheads of TV. This is why we see exactly the same shops in every high street in the country. The entire economy is already stitched up. I didn’t see any conceivable way that the TPV could generate enough money from advertising to survive, although I must admit I thought they’d do a better job of it than they have. There isn’t any ‘clean’, ethical money to chase after. Infowars has attempted something far less ambitious than what TPV is attempting, but all of the sort of companies that advertise on AJ’s site do not exist in Britain (whatever you think about whether or not Infowars is ethical).
It makes me laugh with these people, and this is a bugbear of mine about Russell Brand as well, that we hear them going on about all of these other subjects and either negating, deflating or denying the importance of money. But, of course, they’re completely reliant on it, and have always got their hand out (which I don’t have a problem with because we all do). But then you’ll hear them saying stuff like all that matters is love and spirituality.
Is that the case, Russell? I assume you’ll be giving all your money away then? I assume you won’t be taking seven figures fees to appear in wanky movies any more? Try telling kids eating out of the bins in Somalia that spirituality is more important than money. In a monetary-driven society, money is, sadly, the only thing that matters. Ultimately it dictates almost all human behaviour, and even begins to vastly influence things that it really shouldn’t, such as who we mate with.
In all honesty, instead of pissing about looking at the moon, or tracing the bloodlines of the Templar Knights back several thousands of years, or talking about how meditation is really valuable and will change your life, the basic socio-economic and political systems have to be addressed directly. If they’re not, nothing will change for the better. Fucking tit around doing yoga and talking about how atoms don’t really have any mass all day long, that’s great, but you still have eat after you’ve finished.
