Sub Pop Cult with Michael McGruther

A conversation about the film industry, the culture and the future of truly indie storytelling with actor/writer/director John Lacy. His new film ROSEBUD LANE is a must watch for any young filmmaker who desires autonomy in the craft and the stories they want to tell are set far from Hollywood and its negative influence.

The way the left connects with voters is through artists. The symbiotic relationship works masterfully without any competition but once American indie artists seize this power and redeploy it locally, the left will lose all influence over the national narrative which drives national politics.

Clowns aren’t the people who go through their daily life and reflect a cultural narrative they didn’t write — Clowns are the people who dance around juggling reactions to those people while preventing any remedy that doesn’t involve the circus selling tickets.

A healthy Republic depends on a healthy free Culture among the people. A healthy free culture depends on a long term plan to maintain American culture in the face of severe corporate/communist headwinds that aim to subvert human freedom. The system can also be subverted if we dare to think different and play with wisdom instead of for keeps.

There is nothing better for an author than when the characters on the page begin to write themselves -- unless the author is a corporate hack and controlling the characters is the prime objective. Your life is narrative and when you begin to write yourself is when you're free from the dark influence of the storytelling that controls it's characters to serve the world's biggest corporation -- The USA.

Culture has consequences that are ever present. Only culture can normalize and make acceptable the most absurd of human behaviors. Only culture can make Communism appear fun and Liberty a burden. Only culture. That’s why I focus on America’s most pressing issue: fabricated disunity imposed on Americans through destructive culture.

Are we living in a simulation? The answer is yes -- but the simulation is not what it seems and we still possess the power to deflect the sword of deception and break free from the simulation which is delivered by simulacrum.

This is the first episode of my summer “Folk Filmmaker” series where I interview truly indie filmmakers who have the power and the time to revive American independence in filmed entertainment. This movement is on the cusp of breaking the corporate filmmaking mold and my guest today is at the front of that train.

This is an important episode of SubPopCult because it marks the turning point in the culture when the distractions have run their course and the left is about to restart their 1960s narrative and use it to maintain the power to create the story of We The People but only as it serves to empower the state and it’s corrupt power players.

This episode marks the end of a year and half effort to study and understand the game of psychoanalytical political narrative and the monetized reaction industry on the right that prevents any gains in the culture for conservative Americans. SubPopCult will now transition to true community building starting with the summer Folk Filmmaker series of interviews with truly indie authentic voices in the hottest scene in film. Be on the look out later for a SubPopCult space in Spatial in Meta. Soon we will get together for indie film screenings and have Q and A sessions with the talent in VR.
