It’s a manipulation as old as cinema itself. Once again, Hollywood’s backers and producers are using film to sell a war agenda—just as they did in both World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq. They decide who the villains are: Arabs, Russians, Chinese—and now they’re at it again. Rick Sanchez exposes the latest push to make Western audiences fear and hate China, this time through a new movie called Zero Attack Day.
The Taiwanese TV series “Zero Day Attack” received partial funding from Taiwan’s Ministry of Culture, “as well as a controversial and hawkish local billionaire Robert Tsao.”
Hollywood production has been of particular interest to the president since he took office for his second term. In January, Trump named actors Jon Voight, Sylvester Stallone, and Mel Gibson as “special ambassadors” to Hollywood in order to crack what was apparently wrong with the business. According to Deadline, Voight has taken the title seriously, and recently met with studios and artistic guilds to better understand the issues plaguing production. The potential of a national incentive to bring more production back to the U.S. is a rare bipartisan issue in the industry, at least on the surface; since the wildfires that swept the Los Angeles area in early 2025, many in the film business have rallied the California and national government to incentive studios to shoot local.
Trump’s Hollywood Ambassadors: a dream team of cinematic patriotism, expertly trained in the fine art of Pentagon-approved storytelling. Each has worked closely with the Defense Department’s Entertainment Media Office, ensuring that military narratives get just the right heroic glow. Now, under Trump’s watchful eye, they’re promoted from script advisors to official cultural envoys—because nothing says diplomacy quite like a blockbuster-ready version of history. If reality ever gets messy, don’t worry—they’ve got years of experience cleaning up inconvenient details. /s
In a “60 Minutes” interview this week, the vice president shared the kind of gun she owns. Its associations with law enforcement and pop culture make it a potent symbol.
Glock was born in Vienna on 19 July 1929. He was conscripted into the Wehrmacht as a teenager near the end of World War II, after which he graduated from school as an engineer and joined a hand drill company.
I told myself that I wasn’t going to listen to these “think tanks” for a while. I guess I wasn’t ready, as the following angered me.This is just normal thinking inside “The Blob,” though.
Demonizing the enemy, demonization of the enemy or dehumanization of the enemy is a propaganda technique which promotes an idea about the enemy being a threatening, evil aggressor with only destructive objectives.
The Bruce Lee legend never fades but it might surprise some to learn that among his legion of fans was Chairman Mao, who called him a hero.
Chairman Mao Zedong (1893-1976) and Bruce Lee the martial arts legend (1940-1973) both declared – in their unique ways – that the Chinese people had “stood up”.
It is called the military-entertainment-complex. The Pentagon is deeply involved in the production of pop culture, from spy shows and war movies, to light entertainment like “The Price is Right” and “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” the military has had a hand in shaping them all.
