I love this show because the Jesus character is very realistic, like this is what Jesus would be like in modern society. He’s homeless & his nemesis is the landlord of the apartment complex where his homies live, where he often hangs out. They start a community garden & the landlord asshole tries to use the police to get it shut down. Lots of hilarious situations ensue. Enjoy! ♥Neonn
“The hi-jinks of a street-smart savior living in modern-day Compton, on a mission to spread love and kindness throughout the crime-ridden L.A. neighborhood with his small group of followers.” [IMDB]

Absolutely epic film here. If you want to understand the current state of the ‘conflict’ that has been escalating between the Zionists and the Palestinians for the better part of the past century, please watch this film. ♥Neonn
“This collaboration shows you Gaza’s protest movement like you’ve never seen before. Filmed during the height of the Great March Of Return protests, it features exclusive footage of demonstrations where 200 unarmed civilians have been killed by Israeli snipers since March 30, 2018.”
❝ Society is broken. We can design our way to a better one.
In our interconnected world, self-interest and social-interest are rapidly becoming indistinguishable. If current negative trajectories remain, including growing climate destabilization, biodiversity loss, and economic inequality, an impending future of ecological collapse and societal destabilization will make ‘personal success’ virtually meaningless. Yet our broken social system incentivizes behavior that will only make our problems worse. If true human rights progress is to be achieved today, it is time we dig deeper―rethinking the very foundation of our social system.
In this engaging, important work, Peter Joseph, founder of the world’s largest grassroots social movement―The Zeitgeist Movement―draws from economics, history, philosophy, and modern public-health research to present a bold case for rethinking activism in the 21st century.
Arguing against the long-standing narrative of universal scarcity and other pervasive myths that defend the current state of affairs, The New Human Rights Movement illuminates the structural causes of poverty, social oppression, and the ongoing degradation of public health, and ultimately presents the case for an updated economic approach. Joseph explores the potential of this grand shift and how we can design our way to a world where the human family has become truly sustainable.
The New Human Rights Movement reveals the critical importance of a unified activism working to overcome the inherent injustice of our system. This book warns against what is in store if we continue to ignore the flaws of our socioeconomic approach, while also revealing the bright and expansive future possible if we succeed.

This is the greatest documentary of all time. This is the single most important item on this website. Please, please, please watch it. It fully articulates the true nature of our current global economic system, as well as the alternative system we must ultimately transition to in order to survive as a species. ♥Neonn
“Zeitgeist: Moving Forward (2011) focuses on “Monetary-Market Economics” and its repercussions. Chapter 1 is treatment on “Human Nature”, noting that our social traditions are out of line with what constitutes positive human development. Chapter 2 details the core flaws of our economic system and how it is destroying us and the planet. Chapter 3 begins a thought exercise where our modern scientific understanding is considered as the starting point for human decision-making and Chapter 4 sets predictions of what is to come as society becomes more destabilized due to our outdated practices.”
This is the film that launched the Zeitgeist Movement. After Peter’s first film presented a brutal ruthless criticism of everything existing without proposing an alternative system, Roxanne Meadows of the Venus Project sent him a copy of Jacque Fresco’s manifesto, The Best That Money Can’t Buy. That inspired him to make a film showing people why civilization indeed does not have to be this way. ~💜Neonn
“Zeitgeist: Addendum (2008) features former “Economic Hit-Man” and New York Times bestselling author, John Perkins, along with The Venus Project, an organization for social redesign created by Industrial Designer Jacque Fresco. Broken into four chapters, the 1st explains “Fractional Reserve Banking” and how Debt and Bankruptcy are inevitable realities. The 2nd exposes various levels of international corruption via the financial/corporate system. The 3rd then considers solutions to current social woes and the 4th gives a philosophical view with the hope to inspire change in the viewer.”
