God bless Maggie, she sat through the entire bizarre, psychedelic, Zeitgeist film series. She deserves a medal. Since I don’t have a medal, links to her posts will have to do. So much for the claim that Zeitgeist is right wing.
The Cult of Zeitgeist and Jared Loughner – Part 1
The Cult of Zeitgeist and Jared Loughner – Part 2
The conclusion, Zeitgeist is definitely not right wing. Unless you consider hatred of Fox News to be right wing.
Note: If you haven’t been paying attention, Stacy McCain has been all over this story, including how Loughner is a big dope-head and how drug use is known to push schizophrenics over the edge.
I wish I had more time to cover all of this, but when Nancy Pelosi promised people could quit their jobs because health insurance would be free, apparently she wasn’t talking about little ole’ me.
Here’s video of Zeitgeist Part I – does this look or sound like right wing propaganda? I’ve been to CPAC and several tea parties, and psychedelic weirdness was never part of the program.
Update: The plot thickens. Zeitgeist is tied to Soros! Surprise, surprise. It’s also won a bunch of left wing film awards.

No, Zeitgeist is not tied to Soros, no matter what propaganda Maggie and McCain throw out. Yes, the film won an award at a 2007 film festival that was sponsored by PETROBRAS (among others), but Soros did not buy into PETROBRAS until 2008.

Just so you’re clear on this, 2008 came _after_ 2007.
You don’t even need to know the facts of the case (although it would be nice if you cared) to question this meme. PETROBRAS is one of the biggest corporations in the Western hemisphere, so you wouldn’t expect Soro’s hedge fund to own a controlling interest (it never did). Like many big corporations, PETROBRAS has a very large cultural arts grant program. The company sponsors some 30 film festivals.

The idea that Soros would spend $811 million just to get an obscure film festival to give one of its 10 annual awards to an even more obscure film is staggeringly stupid. And as the facts show, it’s also a bald-faced lie. McCain is pushing that lie because, like the anti-Palins, he sees Loughner’s massacre as an opportunity to bash the people he hates.

When we look at the world through red colored sunglasses, the world appears…. red. Wow, what a terrific coincidence, or could it be that we have built-in biases that cloud our vision.
Those within the right-left paradigm have built-in biases that make everything outisde those two colors of the spectrum ot appear pychsodelic and absurd. Hence, your opinion of the Zeitgeist films which appeal to the intellect and try to explain the complexity of our world.
I am not trying to convince anyone on this site. I’ve tried to teach pigs to talk and they just don’t have the mental capacity, the same applies here.
