Documentary: Militainment Inc, War as Entertainment

Written by Ernesto on February 12, 2007 

Militainment Inc. is a nine part documentary, written, produced, and narrated by Roger Stahl, assistant professor at the University of Georgia. The documentary shows how the Pentagon and the entertainment industries became partners in militarizing TV, games, sports and more.

militainment documentary“The film asks: How has war taken its place as an entertainment spectacle? and What does this mean for the ability of our democracy to consider this most destructive of human activities?”

It’s an informative and interesting documentary, definitely worth the watch. The film is available on BitTorrent for free. If you like Militainment Inc, you might also be interested in “The Power of Nightmares” another free documentary we posted about a while ago.

I’ve taken it upon myself to learn as much as possible about current world affairs through intense self education. Noam Chomsky, Greg Palast are must authors to read if you’re interested in arming yourself with knowledge. Something ‘IS’ terribly wrong with the world and how its resources are distributed.

When one realizes that the Earth’s resources are originally free and when one understands that we are all held captive by the ruling elite, who control them because of our natural needs/requirements, one cannot go back. Something is very wrong.

Our ‘leaders’ are failing us; in fact I fear that we have no true leaders.

If you’re informed and up to speed and want to change the world but feel isolated and confused join the club. There are a lot of us.

Trying to change the world on your own is a difficult task. If you want to do something I suggest teamwork, talk to your friends and join forces, make films, write books, conduct research/ investigative journalism, it’ll be a lot easier in a team.

Remember, a peaceful world cannot be achieved through violence and war.

Knowledge is power, be peaceful.

Very wise words, my friend!

This is no conspiracy theory, this is the sad truth.
Is money our enemy? No, greedy humans are the source of evil.

Let’s change this! We are the people ;)

To change things takes will and honor.
Mouse talk about things people fight.
When you become people let me know.
