Something unremittingly bleak about a goddamn country starting "crisis actor" conspiracy theories to deny their crimes. A term invented to deny the deaths of children at Sandy Hook in 2012 is now used to deny the deaths of children in Gaza in 2023.
As the community note says, this isn't a crisis actor. This is a guy who posts on Instagram. A influencer who posts videos online of breaking events...is seen at a lot of breaking events. To Israel, this is a sign of a conspiracy. In fact, some of those images aren't even him, or aren't even related to Palestine at all; one image included in other posts targeting Saleh Aljafarawi is a Halloween costume from Thailand. That article says "pro-Israeli accounts" tweeted this, but it's the literal, official Twitter account of Israel posting this shit, next to their comedy sketches that somehow make trans people the punchline bc fascists only have one joke the whole world wide I guess
Like. It's not new for a government to deny the reality of its atrocities. It is new for that government to outright use a conspiracy theory term devised by Alex fucking Jones, or to, when called on doing so, defend it as a "meme" (also bizarre to see hardcore Zionists use a term crafted for especially antisemitic conspiracy theories). Everything rancid about the world in 2023 congealed into a single tweet, right here

So I realized a thing...
All of the ghoul's incantations are scrambled versions of a demon belonging to the Lesser Key of Solomon.
Jin Kamurai- Stigma: Bianerus (#24 Naberius)
Tohma Ishibashi- Stigma: Argeas (#2 Agares)
Lucas Errant- Stigma: Iggnaim (#4 Gamigan, also known as Samigina)
Alan Mido- Stigma: Yagsal Olbalsa (#25 Glasya-Labolas)
Leo Kurosagi- Stigma: Haxs (#44 Shax)
Shohei Haizono- Stigma: Spurno (#20 Purson)
Haru Sagara- Stigma: Bahnti (#18 Bathin)
Ren Shiranami- Stigma: Raothtas (#29 Astaroth)
Taiga Hoshibami- Stigma: Balam
Romeo Scorpus Lucci- Stigma: Tiris (#12 Sitri)
Ritsu Shinjo- Stigma: Acimo (#53 Camio, also known as Caim)
Subaru Kagami- Stigma: Talnandio (#71 Dantalion)
Lyca Colt- Stigma: Ramsochisa (#35 Marchosias)
Yuri Isami- Stigma: Agnihaet (#48 Haagenti)
Kaito Fuji, Towa Otonashi, Haku Kusanagi, Zenji Kotodama, Edward Hart, Rui Mizuki have not had their incantations revealed.
However, I am SUPER curious if their incantation signifies WHO they made their demon deal with!!

I have a theory about who MC shouldn't trust as Taiga told her.
Instead of anyone from the ghouls, the ones she shouldn't trust are the professors like Hyde. The theory that goes with this one would also be that she isn't actually cursed but something completely different. After seeing how the academy was doing with Lyca, it would make a lot of sense.

Gotten a few asks about this so let me clarify:
Atlantis the Lost Empire is NOT Nazi propaganda nor is it an endorsement of Nazi beliefs.
It's another example of a piece of media that has taken inspiration from a conspiracy theory which unfortunately has ties to the Nazis' obsession with proving their bonkers Aryan race theory.
The Nazis were obsessed with finding and creating ANY sort of historical/traditional link to validate their agenda, no matter how utterly ridiculous or entirely separate from reality that link was. They were obsessed with the mystical and the occult. Pseudo-science and pseudo-archaeology were their literal bread and butter.
In this instance, Plato's story of a sunken ancient city is not special for being co-opted for the Nazi's purposes. What has lead Atlantis to becoming a popular conspiracy theory in modern times is due in part to the steady popularization of pseudo-science as well as bad faith actors promoting a racist conspiracy theory as genuine fact.
The majority of conspiracy theories you hear about today actually have roots in fiction. For example, the Hollow Earth conspiracy theory finds it's origins from science fiction novels dating back to the 1800s. The Philadelphia Project can also trace its origins to a UFO writer who claims he was receiving secret confidential intel from a former US mariner. And yet there are are people who genuinely believe there is a secret world hidden in the center of the earth and that the US government was experimenting with and succeeded in creating a portal to another dimension.
So is the case with Atlantis. Atlantis: The Antediluvian World was written by Ignatius Donnelly in 1882 as a means to express his desires for a populist government and world. He was extremely misguided in his belief that Plato's story was factual and he employed the use of hyperdiffusion-a popular method used in countless conspiracy theories-to argue that all ancient societies were basically all descended from one even more ancient people.
Or in the Nazi's own terms: "An ancient master race."
Bad actors like Graham Hancock and Ancient Aliens further popularized the Nazi's conspiracy theory (as well as many others) and Donnelly's books by spreading mass disinformation across a global scale and we are all suffering for it.
As I've already stated before, Atlantis the Lost Empire takes superficial inspiration from the conspiracy theory in the same way that Stranger Things takes inspiration from the Montauk Project. Many popular sci-fi films, tv shows, books, and video games are littered with references and nods to conspiracy theories. Everything from Men in Black to The X Files to the SCP Foundation.
If you are interested in seeing how convincing conspiracy theories can get and their very real ability to destroy actual lives, I recommend watching American Conspiracy: The Octopus Murders. It perfectly showcases how conspiracy theories can suck you in and how people can easily take advantage of you once they break down your ability to distinguish fiction from reality.
My only caveat with the documentary is that I really wish the creators had emphasized even more plainly to the audience that the Octopus Murders is an actual conspiracy theory instead of leaving the question somewhat open ended. Especially in regards to Danny Casolaro's death.
I would also highly recommend watching Milo Rossi aka miniminuteman's videos as his channel is dedicated solely to debunking various archaeological conspiracy theories as well as providing fascinating education on a variety of historical topics. I really cannot overstate how wonderful his Awful Archaeology series is.
I'm going to link a few of my favorites here:
youtube
This is the first of a multiseries debunking Graham Hancock's Ancient Apocalypse series.
youtube
This is Part 1 of 2 of him debunking one of the most notorious TikTokers who makes a living off of spreading mass disinformation.
I would be remiss not to mention Atun-Shei Film's amazing channel as well as Lady of the Library.
youtube
youtube
youtube
I would also recommend Kaz Rowe's channel as they provide stellar information on a wide variery of historical topics.
youtube
youtube
Tldr; Atlantis the Lost Empire and the films creators' did not set out to promote Nazi beliefs. They simply took inspiration from a popular conspiracy theory and made it something entirely unique and separate from the Aryan race agenda.

every time i try to go easier on rachel and give her the benefit of the doubt, i find shit like this
i was literally just trying to wrap up the hades x thanatos conversation text edit that i've been posting over on my IG and felt like adding a couple extra panels so i went back to this episode (ep 215) to try and find panels of hades and hecate talking that i could segue out of the end part of the hades x thanatos conversation
and i found this
and i was like "oh yeah they visualize the doorbell ringing with a literal bell, i guess that works-"
that bell isn't rendered in rachel's usual style, it's very cell shady with zero texture
but no, no, don't do this puff, you're just being paranoid, it's just a silly little bell, are you really jumping to the conclusion that rachel and her team didn't draw this just because it looks a little off???
just throw it in google reverse image search so you can put this to rest and prove to yourself that it is, in fact, just a drawing of a bell, i don't need to be reading too much into it-
OH COME ON-
#at this point i can't read LO anymore because every time i do i catch something like this and it ruins my whole day LOL#this isn't even on a phone screen this is literally just meant to be their doorbell ringing and they used a stock bell emoji for it#literally could have just drawn the door or even traced over the bell but they LITERALLY copy pasted it and slapped text on top#is this even legal LMAO#oh boy this sure isn't debunking the tinfoil hat conspiracy theories that LO is being created by an AI bot-#lo critical#lore olympus critical#antiloreolympus#anti lore olympus

you realize ramcoa isn’t “secret satanic illuminati shadow organization”.. right? it’s a way to describe a very specific type of abuse. are you saying cults aren’t real? human trafficking isn’t way? institutionalized abuse isn’t real? be so fr
you realize that is exactly what the chairman/president of the RAMCOA SIG, michael salter, believes.. right? in 2008 he tried to claim that a certain preschool had tunnels built under it that he implied were used for satanic ritual abuse... he is a conspiracy theorist, and one of the biggest proponents of RAMCOA.
he believes that the satanic temple is after him, the RAMCOA SIG, and the ISSTD. he believes he is being stalked by satanists who want to literally kill him.
#mailbox#Anonymous#please point to where i said that none of what you said isn't real btw?#cults and trafficking and institutional abuse is real.#RAMCOA as a term promoted by the ISSTD and the RAMCOA SIG is not real. it's based on debunked conspiracy theories.

hey Rui! if there's any ghoul at Darkwick that you could spend the day hanging out with, who do you think you'd want to spend time with the most?
I’ll be so for real with you!
I spend waaaaay too much time cooped up in Obscuary! I swear, I’m losing my touch with talking to others! It’s really sad!
Ed isn’t exactly the best to have conversations with. And his room looks like a bomb went off in it! Tragic, really. I work soooo hard to clean it.
But to answer your question!
I would spend time with Haku in a heartbeat!
He’s just easy to talk to. And, between you and me, he’s really got the whole flirting thing down! Used to practice together late at night for shits and giggles.
Man… I wonder how he’s doing…
─── ⋆⋅ ♰ ⋅⋆ ───
#tokyo debunker#tdb#rui mizuki#Ask Rui Mizuki#Haku and Rui used to hang out all the time trust#rui does like Ed he’s just a slob#and hearing his conspiracies back to back can be really draining!#please give this guy a break!

Wanna see my Jin conspiracy board where I read too much into things?
Okay, but don't come for me. Just think of me as a tabloid muckraker. You walk into my office, I'm in a tin foil hat. A coffee mug is vibrating in my hand. You see this on my bulletin board.
(Cut for frostheim spoilers and that magazine interview @romeolucci posted.)

I don't think kids really need to be protected from "inappropriate" content so much as they need the tools and safe adults in their lives to handle when they encounter things that they need help with, BUT I will say that there is a growing amount of misinformation and disinformation being spread online that is deliberately targeted towards children and people need to be aware of that and prepare for it.
I'm not exaggerating in the slightest when I say it took about a week of watching Youtube Kids for my baby sister to start parroting Q-Anon level conspiracies about the government hiding the fact that extinct animals like wooly mammoths and saber tooth tigers are still alive. This wasn't innocent shit, she was getting genuinely upset about the government supposedly watching her through the security cameras of a sandwich restaurant.
There are people out there, especially content farms, who knowingly and deliberately spread misinformation to children specifically and who knowingly spread disinformation about basic scientific facts. And that's not even getting into content farms that share "life hacks" that get kids injured or killed.
The internet is becoming more dangerous for kids and it has very little to do with fanfiction, it's almost all because corporations like youtube prioritize their profits over the safety of children.
#highly recommend the hack debunking videos from how to cook that on youtube#because she goes into how so many content farms share actively dangerous 'hacks'#including many that are specifically advertised to children#like making white strawberries by soaking them in bleach#or cutting fruit by putting it in a bin with razor blades#or the many alcohol fueled popcorn hacks that don't mention the very real risks#of pouring more alcohol into the container and the flame traveling up into the bottle#but now there's a wave of kids contact specifically designed to radicalize children into conspiracy theories#based around scientific disinformation and paranoia

im gonna be really blunt but please understand that im genuinely not trying to be cruel or mean
i completely believe that u were abused. i have no doubt that the things that happened to u were absolutely fucking terrible and have affected u in lasting deeply harmful ways. i am not denying the reality of the direct psychological harm u suffered
but that does not mean what happened to u was ritualistic mind control performed by a satanic cult that kidnaps children in order to program them to have DID. that is not real. programming and mind control are not real. ritualistic satanic cannibalism and child sacrifice is not real. trafficking children to be used in satanic ritual sacrifice is a far right nazi conspiracy theory that has never been true. the same people peddling ramcoa are the exact same ppl saying that democrats in the us are all jews trafficking children in order to drink their blood in satanic rituals. that is two prongs of the same exact nazi conspiracy theory. it is far right bullshit. the mc is ramcoa stands for mind control. it is the belief that the government is kidnapping children in order to use mind control to give them DID. that is not and has never been real.
the ISSTD and associated organizations promoting ramcoa and masquerading as treatment centers are a multiply defunct far right organization that exists to further exploit and victimize its patients. they are a grift. this has been incredibly well documented since its inception in the 80s. it's founders had their licensees revoked for sexually assaulting patients, they have been found to torture false confessions from patients and only further their psychological harm, they have been sued consistently since their creation by former patients for abusing them during treatment. their last settlement was as recent as 2023. just because an organization exists doesnt mean its a reputable one, just because ur receiving treatment for this at one of these organizations doesnt make it real. far right organizations also opperate fake abortion clinics but that doesnt actually make those places legitimate places of medicine where u can recieve real medical treatment.
there are nuggets of observable truth within ramcoa, because there has to be. that's how conspiracy theories work. u must take an observable reality and string it together to lead to the false conclusion. something like, we know cults and high control groups are real, abuse and trafficking are also real, cptsd and conditioning is real and u can condition humans to associate certain triggers with certain behaviors and actions, u can make someone react with panic, violence, fear, ect. at certain triggers if u abuse them deeply enough and for long enough, ppl who've been bombed are often triggered by the sound of fireworks, these are things we know are true. same with how extreme childhood abuse often results in a fragmented and poorly defined sense of self that can be easily manipulated and exploited because child abuse victims are incredibly vulnerable. those are all real things, so then the ISSTD and far right conspirators extrapolate those out to suit thier agenda. conditioning and cptsd triggers become "programming" and mind control. high control groups run by shitty people become satanic cults run by evil jews and so on. but just because there is a nugget of truth buried deep down doesnt make the rest of that shit suddenly real it's the same way companies like doterra take the very real truth that some homeopathic remedies are based in scientific fact and do work, and extrapolate that out to peddle peppermint oil to cancer patients. just because one thing is true, doesnt mean the other is. this is very legitimately how conspiracy theories work and are structured on purpose. they *have* to include a basis of truth, or else no one would believe them
but ramcoa is a grift. it is a lie sold to vulnerable people in order to further harm and exploit them. point blank period. engaging with it in good faith very legitimately gets people killed, and i will not ever entertain it in my spaces.
if u walk into the er with ur arm missing, i'm going to believe ur arm got cut off, im going to believe that u need immediate and extensive medical treatment and care, im going to believe that ur in incredible amounts of pain and that what ur experiencing and have experienced is traumatic and awful. i'm not however, going to believe that a unicorn bit it off.
#jack.speaks#again im not trying to deny peoples pain#but i cannot overstate how dangerous it is to engage with ramcao ideology in good faith#i am not kidding when i say this shit kills ppl and im sorry that ur so deep in it rn and i genuinely hope one day u get out#because u deserve to get out and to recieve real genuine help#but im not gonna give something this deeply harmful any amount of lip service#ofc ppl are going to claim that debunking their far right conspiracy theory is harmful#nazi's say the same shit#aspd
