Summary: Telling lonely people what they want to hear can make you rich.

Why do White people obsess about whether the human race is alone in the universe? Is it because Whites are as alone on the Earth as they are in that universe?

White loneliness

Why look elsewhere for intelligent life when the world teems with it? Whites have so alienated every other ethnic group that they know there is no chance of their experiencing a fully‑shared humanity on the Earth. They then desperately‑fantasize friends into existence from light‑years away (eg, Close Encounters & ET), because no‑one else on Earth actually favors White company enough to want to befriend them. When this fails  – as SETI has – Whites revert to their usually‑resentful paranoid fantasies about aliens who behave just as Whites do in relations with other peoples (eg, Independence Day & War of the Worlds). This loneliness would also explain the peculiar White daydreams of leaving Earth to colonize other planets; while leaving their more rational brethren behind to cope with the pollution and global warming Whites have created.

White man’s best friend

If alien life were ever discovered, Whites would alienate them, too, by playing the Alien Race Card – especially considering their absurd attempts to treat pets as substitutes for the friends they do not know. Trying to force others to love them is also why Whites whine‑on about animal rights: They want the love of animals more than they can actually love other humans or, even, other Whites. Zoophilia, after all, requires much less personality & character to achieve and no personal responsibility for the success (or otherwise) of the resulting relationship.

If Whites ever embraced the full humanity of members of their own species enough to respect them, they would then have little need to waste exorbitant sums of money (that could be better spent elsewhere) and countless person‑years searching for the life on other planets that they fondly‑pretend they could respect, as much as they pretend to esteem themselves, when respect for life – as such – is something Whites rarely show.

This movie contain fine performances from all concerned; focusing upon human greed and the gullibility which lies behind it – and is as funny as all get out.

The bigger the lie, the greater the belief. Here, belief matters more than reality as a disturbed culture believes in anything because it believes in nothing. Thus, these liars do not care about integrity so long as they become rich liars. Amusingly, this movie has it both ways in exposing a hoax while claiming there is – at base – no hoax. A clever analysis of the fact that fiction is a lie that tells the truth: We suspend disbelief for the sake of emotional involvement in recognizable situations. (Most Hollywood films are lies that tell lies.) This comedy does not outstay its welcome in an intelligent, thought-provoking and delightfully self-reflexive script. Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly make a very convincing couple, without which this film would fail to parody audience expectations as well as their own celebrity.

Sleep of Reason:



The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.

Führerprinzip:



One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves… There is no organ of conciliation or mediation interposed between the leader and the people, nothing in fact but the apparatus - in other words, the party - which is the emanation of the leader and the tool of his will to oppress. In this way the first and sole principle of this degraded form of mysticism is born, the Führerprinzip, which restores idolatry and a debased deity to the world of nihilism.
