David Icke and reality

Hello
I was just wondering if any of you have read "Tales of the timeloop" by David Icke? Or his "Children of the Matrix"? Are there Steampunk Icke minded people? In Tales he explains how reality and history is not set in stone. Isn't that a steampunk notion?

I've started a steampunk thread on his forums here:

[media=http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=142864]thread[/media]

This would be the same David Icke who believes in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, occasionally flirts with Holocaust denial, said the world would end in 1997, claims that flu vaccinations are part of an attempt to cull the world's population and that large numbers of senior politicians are part of of a ring of Satanist child-molesters or members of the international Illuminati conspiracy attempting to bring about the "New World Order. And this is before we even get on to the subject of the Lizard Aliens.

Somehow, I have a feeling that you won't find many fans of his round here. Also, you seem to be misunderstanding the entire Steampunk concept, which is based around fictional alternate histories rather than any actual attempts at historical revisionism or any of this fatuous postmodernist nonsense about there being no such thing as hard facts or reality.

Or maybe that's just what THEY want me to think...

Akumabito has a special hat that might help. Don't forget the Orbital Mind Control Lasers!

Yes, that's the way to do it! Wake up, sheeple!

You can only win the intraweb ONCE with that picture, Akumabito.

Don't make me take it back...

One thing in Ike's favour, he does like the colour Turquoise

Deepest apologies, Herr Döktor, but that was my posting referencing his earlier posting. Hope I didn't tread on anyone's toes, but it seemed far too uncannily appropriate for it not to be seen here as well.


Cheers!

I think Capt L did right to alert all to the need for PPE in this thread.

I used to know Icke slightly, a million years ago when he was in the Green party. I think all these ideas of his are a direct result of the brain-frying drugs the medics put him on when he damaged his knees in his professional football career. Actually I think the turquoise thing is the worst of all his fruitloopery.

I heard an mp3 of one of his 'presentations' once, they're normally about 3 hours long.

For the first hour or so he comes across as coherent and if not right then certainly with some interesting if misguided interpretations of historical events... then he starts with the lizards.....

So all that really marks him apart from the rest of the lunatic fringe is his background in journalism.

But for true WTF conspiracy then try a sample of Alex Jones

What, hymn singing, Songs of Praise, and when he was younger his recording of "Walking in the Air" to accompany the Raymond Briggs cartoon?

Sorry, that's ALED Jones.

Thanks to you all for at least a response, I'm not really an avid chat fan, but I have followed these 2 threads. I'm more of a wild west punk man myself, with a Gibson J200 and a whole load of Hank Snow and Hank Williams songs, although my musical interest is much wider than that. The Icke interest is strong though, what with 911 being an inside job and all that, but I thought the reptillian connection would appeal to steampunk. The thread on the Icke site has brought a few people out who crossover, I still think we're connected as distant relatives. Alex Jones is cool too.

This must be someone trying to have a joke with us. He can't be serious, surely?

Perhaps Icke would like Lavie Tidhars The Bookman? It does feature the Royal Family supplanted by giant lizards

I was going to suggest the same tome, Mr Harrow.

what with 911 being an inside job and all that,

Is he still loose? Are there no prisons, are there no lunatic asylums? Is not the treadmill still on its usefull course of duty?
