This Meme music video delves into black sheep's, scapegoat politics, narcissism and groupthink using seven different instrumentals and a montage of images and quotes in the Music with Memes format I've been developing.
I use two images as Constants:
• Salvator Mundi by Davinci.
• The Goat from PetGoat 2.
These two images are used with a quote taken from the Gay philosophies of Voltaire in his book, Miracles and Idolatry, pg 121, "and that will last until your nieghbours and... understand that Folly is Worthless and Persecution Abominable."
===
The seven instrumentals are:
1). Constant Stygma - this opens with a quick overview and many quotes and memes from better heads than mine on the nature of the scapegoat.
2). Beelzebud - explores the conspiracy of the lie and starts with: "We live in a land of lies. It forms our thoughts, then our minds, then the words, and all that they design."
3). New Slums, Lord Ov Crime - delves into the ruling values and families that governs sacrifice in our slums.
4). Little Broken China Doll - featuring insightful L Frank Baum quotes from the Wizard of Oz this piece builds on the phrase "to Know Thyself is considered quite an achievement," and elaborates on the words: trust, love, self.
5). Loki's Journey - in loki's journey I explore the great trickster that sits inside us all, how we fool ourselves, and what we've lost and who would know?
6). Guilt Kills - this piece zeros in on the phrase "Persecution is Abominable," and the Loss we suffer from scapegoat culture.
7). Ded Men Smiling Down on me - this is the closing piece. It focuses on ritual, and at the start it declares ritual an abomination but, the final note is about the way ritual can redeem and bring self back.
There are many images and phrases scattered throughout this video, and it easily takes more than one viewing to see everything in this video. These are designed more to promote thinking, instead of telling a person what and how to think.
