Chappell Roan at the VMAs was everything. People keep confusing her outfit with Joan of Arc but she was actually Julie D’aubigny, which is so much more impactful. Let me explain.
In simple terms she was very good at fencing and she even did opera singing. But what really connects her to what Chappell did is her love story. Julie was a queer woman, she often dressed in men’s clothing but did not attempt to come off as a man.
At some point she had a relationship with a woman, yes a romantic one. Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, the girl was shipped off to a convent to prevent the two from being in contact. And to frame it simply Julie followed after her, snuck in pretending to be apart of the whole thing, created this whole elaborate plan to sneak her lover out which included getting a dead nuns body and placing it in the girls bed followed by burning the building down, therefore faking the girls death.
They ran away together. But, a couple months later the girl went back to her family. Julie’s plan was found out and she was charged as a man on a variety of crimes, she was sentenced to death by burning.
Now let’s put this all together.
1. Chappell was consistently using swords
2. In the performance she looked back and shot a flaming arrow at a building burning it down which goes back to the burning of the convent.
3. The song performed was Good Luck, Babe! And Julie’s lover going back to her family is so Good Luck, Babe! coded. Like literally ur lover followed you to a conversion thing, setting up this whole thing so that you can run away together and love freely and then you go back home to ur family and she dies at the stake. Although not surprising for the time period it’s still so crazy and soooo poetic.
4. Julie d'Aubigny has this whole tragic queer story and Chappells music centers around that sort of thing, and what’s more impactful than a literal gay performer dressing as a gay performer who was killed for being gay?
Do you guys see what I mean??? So, while I love the edits I’m seeing please keep in mind that it is not Joan of Arc. In fact, I think it’s super important that this is corrected considering how real and tragic Julie’s story was.

An incredible article on how Russians were never Rus, how 'Rus' were actually ancient Ukrainians, and how Russians actually stole history from Ukraine (previously - Kyiv Rus)

Description: TikTok from user mmarkroberts. He says "Have you ever been on a night out and something just so whimsical happens to you? If you told someone about it the next day that wasn't there they just wouldn't believe you because it was so magical. Cause something like that happened to me the other night and no one believed me. I was walking home from the bar alone, as I do because I will not get an Uber. And as I was walking home I was on the sidewalk and I could see walking towards me the silhouette of somebody wearing this big top hat. And at first I was like 'that's weird' and I was like 'you know what, it's 2024 nothing fazes me.' As this figure with the top hat was getting closer, I could make out more and more of the details and I quickly realized that it was Abraham Lincoln. Somebody was cosplaying as Abraham Lincoln and walking on the sidewalk. Before Abe could pass me on the sidewalk, he stopped and he was just like 'Excuse me sir can I ask you a question?' and he tilted his top hat towards me, and I wasn't gonna ignore Abraham Lincoln so I was just like 'hey what's up?' He goes on to be like 'Have you seen Benjamin Franklin around these parts?' I was just like 'You mean the founding father Benjamin Franklin?' and he was just like 'yes.' And I thought that he was just being funny and wanted to do, like, a stupid roleplay so I was just like 'yes, I saw him over yonder' and I like pointed ahead. Little did I know he was being serious and he actually starts walking with me because I pointed in the direction that I was walking. So I'm just walking with Abraham Lincoln down the sidewalk. Eventually we get to the corner and I kid you not, when I look down the corner street, I see someone cosplaying as Benjamin Franklin. I tell Abe, I'm just like 'I think I found your buddy.' And he just profusely thanks me in his transatlantic accent, and then he runs up to the person cosplaying as Benjamin Franklin. Turns out they are more than just buddies because Abraham Lincoln starts making out with Benjamin Franklin. So there I was, just watching Miss Shelly the history teacher's fanfiction play out in real time. Happy pride month. Yeah I still don't know if I was on some sort of prank YouTube show or some sort of social experiment."

Its All Here, once and for all - Who Started the Slavery Mill First
Hidden Hebrews - The Shocking Truth About 1619
youtube
We hope that everyone who wants to follow the story of spain and portugal creating slavery - will watch this.
He breaks down the time line, as well as takes you through the process that they used to create a whole new system of government that took control literally of everyone and everything.
The Europeans are a very dangerous bunch, and after watching this I am glad to know the 400 year curse is ending. They bout to learn cause clearly the Moors didn't really teach em everything
yes the 400 year curse,
the tribes,
the pope who issued the Papal Bull and
the appointment of the so called heads of the spanish and portugese church
who contrived and carried out the genocidal act; are all detailed in this video.
Its All Here, once and for all
It's a bit long, but sometimes we need to have CHUUCH to get that real word.
be sure you pass this truth on cause many of us have no idea of how this genocide began and with whom. NOW WE KNOW IT ALL

"Noah's Flood is NOT a Myth!" Geologists Confirm
youtube
Millions of people have labeled the FLOOD story in Genesis as a MYTH, a fairytale — something that never really happened... Until this fascinating fossil of a jellyfish was found! Now, geologists around the world realize that the Biblical narrative wasn't wrong after all...

is there any source for chapell being julie d'aubigny?
This is a great question! And i’m gonna be so honest when i say im not really sure. I too thought she was Joan of Arc, which is of course slay but didn’t exactly make sense with the story being told through the performance. So, when i saw people saying she was Julie d’aubigny i wanted to do some research on her and, well, you know where that went.
I should correct myself: while i don’t know for certain who Chappell really intended to be i find that it is likely to be Julie rather than Joan of Arc.

Comments on videos of ruzzian centric history (aka propaganda): Rus is Russia. Great russian history! Russian culture is so long and beautiful. Honestly russians have so much to be proud of.
Comments on videos which correctly recognize Rus as Ukraine, using Ukrainian spelling: Kiev. Ummm actually you can't say (insert ancient Ukrainian person) is Ukrainian, they are actually just Slavic or Ruthenian or Russian. You can't insert modern day politics into this. Russians and Ukrainians didn't exist back then! They were just slavs! Back then they were just russians. You don't know history! Rus is modern day Russia! Kiev. Kiev. Actually they are Russian in the ancient way and not modern way because that's what they were called. Ugh Ukrainians always have to remind us that Rus is Ukrainian.
How come this shit only happens on Ukrainian posts? On ruzzian posts that steal Ukrainian history and push propaganda, people are at awe at what they say. Posts that are factually correct and use Ukrainian spellings and mention Ukraine, suddenly people have a balanced view of history where the predecessor isn't only Ukraine (cough cough yes it is cough cough). This is just a very clear reminder of how people still hate Ukrainians and would prefer ruzzian propaganda over reality.
Also, if you wanna refer to Ancient Ukrainians and Belarusian properly then say Rusians. One s to separate them from modern day russians. It has ALWAYS been spelled with one s, until moscovites stole the name Rus and spelled it with two s's.
