Kid Charlemagne's Dissensus Respect Power Hour

yyaldrin's cult experience was a major post too.

not sure if i told this story already but:

i was invited to an “art performance“, together with a friend and a friend of him. we didn’t have any info. when we arrive we realize the address is just a regular apartment on the ground floor. we ring the bell and a girl wearing a white toga opens. she scans us and slams the door shut again. we wait a bit, not sure what to do and after a few seconds she opens the door again and tells us we are allowed in. the apartment is completely white, everything, from walls to ceilings to furniture. there’s about 15 people inside and they are all wearing these toga’s, but they’re half naked, boobs and genitals everywhere. they are all young and beautiful. one of the girls tells me to sit next to her, and she then starts to tell how she had a mental breakdown some weeks ago in the supermarket and it was then that she met a guy called “papa“, who helped her and took her into his family. at one point they all sit down in a circle and start singing a song about this “papa“, they all know the lyrics perfectly. they don’t have names but call themselves by the letters of the greek alphabet (alpha, beta, gamma, etc). i wanted to roll a cigarette but was not allowed to use my own tobacco and had to use theirs. well, it goes on a bit longer and more of them tell me stories about “papa“. i thought it was all a joke then one asks me if i want to meet him. i was like sure why not. so a girl takes me to the corner of the room and it looks like they just drilled a hole in it, a ladder is going down into a basement. it’s dark but there are some candles spread around. she takes of her toga and is now completely naked. then she takes of my shoes, my socks, pants and so on. until i’m naked too. she doesn’t say a word during all of this. actually i don’t know why at that point i didn’t say or do anything. curiosity maybe? she then blindfolds me. she takes my hand and guides me through the basement, we stop and she washes my feet and hands with warm water. she then puts her arms around me and is doing some sort of breathings exercises. i’m sweaty and a bit afraid. we move further and at one point she tells me to sit down, i do and she sits herself behind me and gives me a massage. then i suddenly hear a low male voice, asking me “who are you“. i’m guessing this is “papa“ (i’m still naked and blindfolded). well i’m really a bit frightened now and he’s asking me some more questions until he says i’m ready for the ritual with the candle. tells me i can pick any of the family members to help me with this ritual, i tell him i forgot their names but would prefer if one of the girls could help (no intention, i’m just thinking about my safety, i’m not the strongest). so another girl comes down, takes my hand and we move further inside this basement until she tells me i can take of the blindfold. in front of me is an altar with a painting of a guy (i guess “papa“?), the room is lit by about hundred candles. well the story is a bit of an anti-climax because i’m now being told i can do a wish, carve the first letter of that wish into a candle and light it. i’m escorted to the ladder again, put on my cloths and go up. in order to not look like panicking i stay there for another fifteen minutes before i sneak out.

the whole thing lasted around two hours, not a single person laughed, or blinked or gave me any hints that this was theater. i didn't know what was real or fake anymore, i thought i was the crazy one.

i recently read about another sort of weird "theater" that took place in berlin where people were invited to come and experience what it is to be a refugee. so white people signed up for it and then they were all locked up and screamed at and some started crying and there was a lot of talk about it how it went way too far like that stanford prisoner experiment.

There's a De Palma film called Hi, Mom! with a sequence like this. These white liberals go to some radical black theatre production where they just get horrifically abused then come out all disheveled trying to put a brave face on saying how great it was and how they'd recommend it to their friends.

yeh it sounds exactly like this! maybe it's where they got the idea from? i wish i could still find the article, it sounded like some people really got traumatized. other people were definding it by saying that's also how it works in real life

You should watch the film. It's good. Taxi Driver via Godard.

first off id rather just say who i respect in sparse messages when i feel the need to like i usually do but oh well

line b and sus ofc have my respect because i met them and they are real people

luka has my respect because hes a guy on the street that does poems and thats his life.... he also seems to know about writing and different poets i think.... always mentioning "prynne".... one of my biggest regrets in life is not finding him when i was in london.... but i am very excited to go find him

idle rich, dilbert, shaka, and gh0st have my respect because they are new yorkers.... i hve seen them say nonsense but before i get rattled i remind myself that they are nyc so thats respect....

mvuent i like his profile pic

version is kind of in the line b sus tier since ive known him longest and hes has been so influential with the version core of books and movies..... but like i unfortunately will never meet him and he is such a mythical figure, i dont like him being disrespected but i dont know how to describe or explain him its so bizarre i wont say to disrespct him but he transcends this spectrum......

0bleak and murphy are possible heroin lots of no comment on them and others

this whats come to mind on people i immediately think of..... im not going to look down a list.....

He's said that I am stoic and emotionally like a boulder in the face of my many troubles
yes honestly like idle rich....

i remember i was really excited to meet up with u last time and run around the city go to a baseball game and the concert and all and then the first thing u told me when we were getting breakfast was like "me and the girl are seperated so sorry if im a bit off today".... and it was like oh no my high of expectations for the day went down, but you kinda just seemed pretty normal and not much different from any other time ive been around u and it ended up being as great a day as i hoped....
