SHAKESPEARE and COMPANY: Regarding all these deep history accounts, alternative histories, conspiracy theories, and whatnot, many debunkers say that those of us who are skeptical of the traditional histories and news are looking for conspiracy theories and working backward from foregone conclusions, but I find the opposite to be true. Even JFK: not until the Oliver Stone film was released, was I really interested in that case. Same with the rest, including Sandy Hook which I never ever would have thought was a hoax----I also never believed there is a concerted organized plot to disarm Americans, but its the truth. Mao, Marcos, Stalin, ALL disarmed their populations before getting to the real fun part of their terror. Gandhi of all people warned against this, saying that the day the British disarmed India was a terrible day, a great crime. Gandhi!! Its not about hunting, its about defending yourself from the govt and the operative word in gun control isnt gun but control. This theory came to me; I didnt go looking for it. There is, I now believe, a plan to disarm Americans. Now. The Shakespeare controversy. Who wrote those plays? I was NEVER interested in this subject for various reasons. But when Orson Welles and Charlie Chaplin and G.B. Shaw and FREUD all say they believe Shakespeare, or the author of the plays and sonnets, was actually Edmund de Vere, the Earl of Oxford, then I think we cant dismiss the theory. But its all coming together!! The story is that aristocrats werent allowed or advised to write plays or something and this is why the identity of the real Shakespeare was concealed. But consider this: whats Julius Caesar? The play? Isnt Shakespeare saying, like historian Michael Parenti, that Gaius Julius Caesar was not what we were told in school? That instead of being a terrible dictator, he was actually a man of the people who was murdered by senators who didnt want to give up their estates and their power? Was WS being Oliver Stone at that time? Cato was Julius Caesars rival, and even he admitted that JC was very well loved by the people. He was for the people! He had to go! Like JFK who wanted to end the Cold War, Jim Crow, the Federal Reserve and the CIA. J. Caesar wanted the plebes to have land and rights!! When Jesus says render unto Caesar, the things that are Caesars, Gaius Julius Caesar had been dead for nearly half a century as you know. Caesar Augustus reigned . . . so for those of us who may care, Jesus was not calling out Julius Caesar (dont pay him much mind, render unto Caesar the THINGS THAT ARE CAESARs [pay the tax, dont get all worked up about it], BUT render unto God the things that are Gods)---Jesus was calling out the whole idea of empire ---and still saying pay attention to spirit, not to politics. Now: King Lear. Doesnt Edmund send letters with Lears imprint and do other things to start conflicts in order to gain power? Macbeth: he and his wife will do ANYTHING for power: murder, blackmail, poison, false flags . . . Richard III---like Congressman Frank Underwood in House of Cards, he shares his treacherous plot with the audience. I am rudely stamped . . . Im a freak . . . but Ill do anything for power; Ill murder (some even kill their own kids and brothers), Ill do court intrigue, deception, false flags--make this govt or a foreign power think theyre being attacked and watch who the real Monsters on Maple Street are . . . Even Othello. Look how Iago manipulates the poor Moor who loved not wisely, but all too well . . . back to Julius Caesar. Its Antony who acts as the conscience of the people. If this Caesar was so awful and ruthless, why was he so generous and gentle? Ambition should be made of sterner stuff . . . right? Why did the plebes love him so? Because he was actually gentle, and the elements so mixed in him that nature might stand up to all the world and say this was a man. The writer of these plays was telling us that the deal is dirty: court intrigue, false flags, propaganda is everywhere!!! Do NOT believe the news of the day. Cast a cold eye on history . . . Who is the king? Of course, WS or Oxford, or whomever, wrote flattering stuff about Henry VIII and maybe Elizabeth, but this is my theory: The real identity of Shakespeare was concealed because he was a truther, if you will, and being a truther brought a death sentence with it at that time, and even does today, as you well know. Power is about the Big Lie, murder, deception, manipulation, ruthlessness, and the villains here are ALL well-born, aristocratic and if theyre not, like Othello, theyre manipulated by those who are. Even Hamlet: look at the treachery of Claudius ---he even marries Hamlets mother after killing his father!!--and look how Hamlet, not so naïve, manipulates the deaths of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, plots the death of Claudius, and almost succeeds, but he spent too much time watching Wheel of Fortune. He shouldnt have procrastinated . . . How about the Greek myths and Greek drama? Incest, internecine murder, the envy of the gods (the power brokers): dont be too powerful, dont get too smart or well cut you down . . . well turn you into spiders and newts. Zeus struck down Aesculapius because the Big A had learned how to bring people back to life from the dead. The Judaeo-Christian God says hes jealous, envious; He kills Philistines, Egyptians and even his own people without much repentance (though, after he flooded the earth, Genesis tells us, he repented. It says God repented). In the plays of Aeschylus and Sophocles is no shortage of incest, fathers killing sons, sons becoming husbands to their mothers, as Dylan put it . . . court intrigue, deception, murders that are blamed on innocent people . . . Its the crazy conspiracy theorists, I find, who have the historical context, the facts, the right disposition (theyre not starting from a foregone conclusion and working backward to prove their point; they are not completely disregarding facts that dont support their foregone conclusion). And the artists . . . Im not saying Oliver Stone is an artist of Shakespeares stature, but hes got a little of the bard in him, as does Dylan . . . Stone is overt, others are more subtle, but I think we have some bards, artists, working today who are telling us almost covertly that theres something rotten in the state of Denmark and other places. By the pricking of their thumbs . . .
