News readers, politicians, teachers, lecturers.
00:01:45.180
We are in a country and in a world that is being run by unbelievably sick people.
00:01:54.140
The chasm between what we're told is going on and what is really going on is absolutely different.
00:02:02.380
Welcome back to another episode of Nephilim Death Squad.
00:02:36.600
That is Top Lobster, the father of disinformation.
00:02:40.760
And today we are joined by our guest, Jeremy Slate.
00:02:44.980
We're going to discuss a bunch of topics ranging from maybe some Nephilim shit,
00:02:51.400
But before we get into that, Jeremy, can you please let the people know a little bit about what it is you do
00:02:59.500
Well, thankfully, I read a YouTube comment only 10 minutes before this conversation.
00:03:03.680
And luckily, I had this scheduled, so I didn't have enough time to end my existence,
00:03:08.220
So I'm stoked to be hanging out with you guys today.
00:03:21.040
I like to say in the Roman Empire, but it's actually in the propaganda of Augustus.
00:03:24.200
And I say Roman Empire so people understand that a little bit better.
00:03:27.140
But I studied this in school, gosh, almost 15 years ago now.
00:03:31.600
And then all of a sudden on TikTok, people started thinking about the Roman Empire.
00:03:41.840
All that stuff you've been annoying me with for the last 10 years, honey,
00:03:50.580
So we're going to the Natural History Museum on Thursday.
00:04:05.120
So I don't like doing that because like, like, gym culture has been a big part of my life.
00:04:10.940
They walk over like, you know, if you change that angle just a little bit,
00:04:28.440
Like, where I'm explaining something to my wife.
00:04:29.800
And like, the old couple with curly hair next to you starts slowly moving over towards you.
00:04:34.300
You know, like the old lady curly hair where they have like the fro going on.
00:04:38.720
And next thing you know, there's another group slowly moving next to you.
00:04:41.720
And next thing you know, you have a tour of 10 people.
00:04:48.680
You're getting into turf wars with other tour guides.
00:05:01.320
Is it often, Jeremy, that if you're out there and you're doing that, do you hear them missing the mark?
00:05:09.820
Like, I think part of the problem with history is a lot of history is perspective.
00:05:13.860
So it depends on whose opinion you're reading or what information you're reading.
00:05:16.620
Because most history of reading, as much as people want to say it's based in fact, unless it's something happened in a certain year, a lot of it's opinion.
00:05:22.640
And I think that's if you look at political figures like Julius Caesar, he's vilified throughout history.
00:05:28.840
And he was kind of just a man of his era and a better politician than the rest of them.
00:05:33.080
So it's very interesting to get viewpoints on history.
00:05:41.280
And what got me interested in being a voice on Twitter or just doing anything was like I'm watching them write history.
00:05:50.880
So imagine, you know, we're talking hundreds of years ago.
00:05:54.820
The facts have been lost probably right off the bat.
00:06:00.620
Or I don't know if you delve into that kind of stuff.
00:06:19.980
I like Von Daniken's take on things, even though I feel like he almost ruined his brand going into the ancient aliens side of things,
00:06:28.280
only because there was a time when ancient aliens might have been something that was very compelling.
00:06:34.820
But since then, they've just beaten that brand to death, trying to keep the series alive.
00:06:40.460
And I think that Eric Von Daniken's association with it might be a little bit to his detriment.
00:06:44.320
Although, you know, if you start to grab his books, you realize, like, oh, this guy is a legitimate researcher and a pretty impressive mind when it comes to the ideas that he has surrounding ancient, obscured history.
00:06:57.880
Like, I don't really know anything about the television show.
00:06:59.460
I don't know about that guy, Giorgio, with the crazy hair.
00:07:05.560
You know, at the height of ancient aliens, it was a good show to get into.
00:07:09.240
And it was interesting, some of the ideas that they were exploring.
00:07:11.840
But I think they just started to reach to every possible thing they could to call it, you know, aliens.
00:07:26.920
Like, you'll get into a long discussion with him, and it's like Democrats, Republicans, aliens.
00:07:31.100
Like, you get there, and you're like, I see how you did that.
00:07:42.640
So, throughout the Roman Empire, has there been any folklore or tales of alien interference with any of the leadership?
00:07:51.660
Because we have all the way back to, I think, like, Abraham Lincoln saw aliens.
00:08:01.780
So, I guess you have to look at their viewpoint on the world as different.
00:08:05.200
And they live in an age when, you know, gods walked among men, right?
00:08:09.680
And a lot of that comes from the Greek viewpoint.
00:08:11.900
The Greeks kind of saw gods actually walking the earth as more of a thing.
00:08:17.520
The Romans, that doesn't really become as much of a thing for them until, like, around the year 100, sort of, like, around the second century.
00:08:25.680
You start to get a lot of the Greek culture that comes into Rome, and that's called the Hellenization of Rome.
00:08:29.940
The Greeks wouldn't have called themselves Greeks.
00:08:33.280
So, that's really more of what you're looking at.
00:08:35.720
Like, you know, hey, this chick slept with Hercules and had a kid.
00:08:38.480
But they wouldn't have seen aliens as far as I know.
00:08:41.660
Once again, if there's somebody else out there that has information about that, I'd love to hear it.
00:08:51.860
I mean, the alien thing is to our, I guess, what we think of it is as a rebranding.
00:08:59.160
So, you know, the people back then would not have seen the aliens.
00:09:05.580
Yeah, they're presenting themselves to us, obviously, in a technological way that we need to understand.
00:09:09.860
But for them, it could have been more of a truer form.
00:09:13.520
Like, you know, Hercules, in our opinion, would have been the Nephilim.
00:09:16.940
He's the product of a half-man, half-god, right?
00:09:22.260
It's a product of the fallen angel, a female human being, and then you get this half-god type of thing, which manifests itself as giants and, you know, whatever kind of folklore you like to think about the Raphael.
00:09:35.620
The overlap is actually tremendous because in so many of the ways, like, I know that Zeus in Greek mythology would have transformed commonly into an eagle.
00:09:49.300
I don't know if it's in the story of Perseus and the time that his mother was visited.
00:09:55.900
And I know this is Greek mythology, but obviously there's a lot of over that.
00:10:11.980
I believe he appears to Perseus' mother as a swan.
00:10:16.080
And so when you have, like, the transmutation or the transfiguration from, you know, this sort of humanoid-looking god into an animal, this is the same attributes that the fallen will display.
00:10:31.400
You know, I won't get into it too much, but spoiler alert for those who haven't watched The Watchers, there is this element where they're talking about fairy lore in this film.
00:10:44.240
And as you're watching this, you can see the exact same story told just from the point of view of, I guess, what would be Celtic culture.
00:10:54.020
These entities that even bear image to the fallen in the sense that they're like these angels of light with wings.
00:11:02.760
And they have offspring with human women, and those offspring are a different species.
00:11:14.340
Like, that's the Enki and all that stuff, how they actually, you know, breed with humans and everything.
00:11:19.660
Yes, and the Anunnaki has a different kind of—
00:11:24.340
So a lot of these stories, they remain really parallel to the truth, I think, but they deviate in very important factors.
00:11:31.220
And I think that's because the best lie is one that maintains as closely parallel to the truth as possible.
00:11:35.760
But where the Anunnaki deviate in a way that I think is very damning if you should adhere to this ideology is that they created us and that we're essentially a slave race who at one point was used to harvest gold to suspend in their atmosphere because their planet, Nibiru, or something of that nature.
00:11:54.860
I know this is really Zachariah Sitchin's interpretation of it, but it just paints us as a slave race instead of something that they were actually jealous of, created by God, and then rebelled against him and have been essentially our mortal enemies for some time.
00:12:09.100
It's a pretty clever twist if you want to demoralize people.
00:12:13.620
Well, it's a good story, too, though, and I enjoy a good story.
00:12:18.460
It's almost like the idea of global warming, right?
00:12:23.420
Like it's this story that, yeah, the climate is changing, but then it's kind of like this one lie that deviates you into some destructive behaviors.
00:12:31.700
And you had messaged me before something about global warming, right?
00:12:34.740
It's a really old lie, man, because I'm a big believer that climate goes through cycles.
00:12:42.040
I don't have, you know, not a biologist either.
00:12:43.800
Well, to interrupt, Jeremy, isn't it not even a matter of belief?
00:12:47.520
We can see that we go through ice ages and things of that nature, right?
00:12:50.760
So it's, yeah, this is a thing that constantly is in flux.
00:12:58.000
It's the season for new styles, and I love to shop for jackets and boots.
00:13:01.640
So when I do, I always make sure I get cash back from Rakuten.

00:13:55.580
It grows, you know, because they're good at politics, they're good at conquest, and things like that.
00:13:59.840
But they also have a really good situation going on at the planet at that time.
00:14:04.640
So about the year 200 B.C. to around the year 400 A.D. is when they say the end of it is.
00:14:11.460
So we kind of cross the Jesus line in the middle there.
00:14:14.720
But it really starts to go downhill around 180 A.D.
00:14:18.420
But what happens during this time period is they can grow a lot more grain.
00:14:23.200
And in the Empire period, so the Republic period ends around 31 B.C.,
00:14:27.900
but from the Empire period, which is 31 B.C. to 476 A.D.,
00:14:32.780
they have Egypt as a place to get a lot more grain.
00:14:37.140
What would happen every year is the Nile River would flood the delta,
00:14:40.200
and then the delta would dry out and be a great place to grow new grain.
00:14:44.320
So that was actually how they fed the whole empire.
00:14:47.100
You start to have climate change happening around the 180s,
00:14:49.980
and the price of grain is doubling, tripling, and going up.
00:14:55.080
So then you have in, I think, 248 or 249, somewhere around there,
00:14:58.460
there's this emperor named Decius, and he gets a little freaked out by this
00:15:01.980
because they also have barbarian invasions and other stuff going on.
00:15:06.980
We're going to start mandating everyone's sacrifice to the gods.
00:15:13.320
And so, you know, you kind of have your first carbon credits.
00:15:20.300
we think that we can change this just by, you know,
00:15:24.300
That's actually terrifying that you made that joke
00:15:26.680
because it's not, it's when you said it, I was like, funny.
00:15:30.220
And then I said, oh, no, that's not funny at all
00:15:37.080
I mean, they're almost trying to kill a certain amount of a population
00:15:43.080
I mean, if you think about like the extrapolated long-term damage
00:15:45.920
that they would do with something that detrimental,
00:15:50.060
So I wonder if that is like their crossover of a human sacrifice.
00:15:56.500
because I know a lot of historians will talk about
00:16:00.120
people of the Roman era or whatever in a certain way,
00:16:03.720
well, do the people in power actually believe this?
00:16:07.500
Like Caesar at the kind of the turn of the Republican Empire,
00:16:16.760
And there's a lot of thoughts, well, does he even believe this?
00:16:20.160
So you have to be curious, like, just like the climate police nowadays,
00:16:24.480
do they actually believe what they're foisting upon you
00:16:31.320
isn't that more or less the first instance of the Pope?
00:16:34.800
Well, the Pope takes that name because what ends up happening is
00:16:39.460
in the 280s, the empire is not really doing so well.
00:16:44.420
So Diocletian creates this system called the Tetrarchy.
00:16:48.320
which is actually going to solidify into about a two,
00:16:52.480
And a lot of the verbiage he uses during that time,
00:16:57.640
or pontiff, some of these different words that he uses
00:17:01.520
are actually words that as the empire starts to fall
00:17:07.360
because it would be verbiage people understand.
00:17:14.980
And you're going to see that in how a lot of the,
00:17:17.100
I guess, early formation of like how different dioceses
00:17:23.960
you know, the emperor's handing off the keys to the Pope
00:17:36.200
But to go, I'm going to make the word thinking.
00:17:40.700
Like pontificate sounds like it literally is derived.
00:17:47.240
Like that is, I want to be associated with thinking.
00:17:51.100
But I see this parallel that you're drawing, right?
00:17:55.400
Between climate change, even the idea of inflation, right?
00:18:01.500
We have this, even the reintroduction of sacrifice,
00:18:06.920
which to some extent we're in the middle of right now.
00:18:12.880
I don't know how familiar you are with that, but-
00:18:15.780
but I know like we're looking for it at some point
00:18:17.320
and when we find it, like good stuff will not happen.
00:18:19.680
Yeah, I mean, they've essentially found it allegedly,
00:18:26.340
especially after the Hamas hang gliding situation
00:18:35.660
that drove them to this attack, among other things.
00:18:38.440
But this was something that they said on television.
00:18:48.640
This, how often do you think about the Roman Empire?
00:18:57.380
is because they resonate so deeply with us culturally.
00:19:18.980
about the Roman Empire allegedly on a daily basis.
00:19:27.640
in the cultural significance of, you know, Rome,
00:19:47.000
Like what they know is from watching Joaquin Phoenix
00:19:53.800
I'm a little concerned about watching the next one though
00:19:55.700
because it kind of looks like Training Day in Rome
00:20:02.060
is that people actually know very little about Rome.
00:20:08.700
it feels more like people are reaching for something
00:20:20.900
You're told being masculine isn't such a good thing.
00:20:24.300
We need equity and we need all these other things.
00:20:37.960
that's actually what I see of the social zeitgeist
00:20:47.000
just feels like we're not really going anywhere.
00:20:52.080
A lot of those same people are looking at Hitler,
00:21:12.520
that there's a cultural engineering behind that?
00:21:28.520
probably actually more since the Obama administration,
00:21:30.700
once they introduced kind of political correctness
00:22:13.320
I think I even have like musings by Marcus Aurelius.
00:22:29.500
Do you think that there's a cultural engineering aspect to this?
00:22:32.960
Or is this all just a natural cycle or reaction?
00:22:39.760
a society that has a disproportionate amount of wealth.
00:23:02.600
And I think it might've been very dramatic in Rome.
00:23:05.160
Do you think that there's a cultural engineering aspect
00:23:16.260
has changed dramatically over the past 100 years.
00:23:19.440
And it changed really around the industrial revolution
00:23:27.380
a classical education would have included Latin.
00:23:29.780
It would have included learning the history of Rome
00:23:40.900
Like someone decided that at some point in time,
00:23:53.460
So you have to wonder if it's kind of kept away
00:23:56.720
as like a knowledge you're not supposed to have
00:24:09.200
you know, we're getting rid of Thomas Jefferson.
01:22:50.100
it's roman religion is very interesting because
01:25:08.580
like the the roman empire and i feel like we're
01:25:18.580
probably ever before yeah and uh thank you to to
01:25:25.640
trying to get me we don't want we don't want to
01:25:33.880
but like they're gonna build your brain this guy's
01:25:53.680
the roman empire forever i hear a dog um my dog is
01:26:18.260
augustus and they actually give him a pension and
01:26:33.980
emperors the king is in charge now so what ends up
01:26:39.240
named justinian famous for the justinian law code
01:26:41.480
and his general belisarius try to unite rome well how do you do
01:26:46.060
that but you burn it down right like you bring in a military and try and destroy
01:26:49.140
the thing and be like hey i ruled the thing again
01:26:50.680
so that ends up really what ends up happening is justinian destroys the thing
01:26:56.220
in order to reunite it well there's not as much literacy in the west at this
01:27:00.720
point so whose history you're going to be reading you're going to be reading the
01:27:02.880
east history and they don't want to make justinian look bad so oh you know it
01:27:06.800
fell in 476 because the barbarians you know just burned the whole thing down
01:27:10.740
it really had morphed into a series of of self-sustaining barbarian kingdoms and a
01:27:16.400
lot of former romans were actually working with barbarians to kind of build this
01:27:20.940
hmm that's not something that you you hear very often when you see um we talked about
01:27:29.760
gladiator before and this is something that i've kind of been wanting to ask and it it's
01:27:35.700
probably a shallow question but it's one of my favorite films uh i just re-watched it
01:27:40.020
it's a really good film man like i hate i love 300 but it's not historically accurate
01:27:43.680
ah well that i figured and that is a great movie i actually watched that with my son recently
01:27:48.860
our alexander commenter will love that one of the most accurate historical films out there is
01:27:53.760
oliver stone's alexander but anyway continue oh uh is that the one with um
01:27:57.740
colin ferrell yeah and that was accurate it's it's pretty good like there are some things they
01:28:01.940
alter but it's for the most part it it honors the story hollywood always embellishes it's you know
01:28:06.800
for entertainment purposes but when it comes to gladiator which i would say out of the ones that
01:28:11.000
we just mentioned i probably my favorite and i am worried about what they're going to do with
01:28:15.960
the new one um what i didn't like about it one of the things that i got into i made a tweet about it
01:28:20.600
was that the the ambiance in gladiator the film it was uh contributed to by this original score
01:28:29.540
and that original score that musical piece uh made you feel like you were immersed in the time era
01:28:36.140
i hate that too that they went with kind of like a a different album for the new one
01:28:40.100
they went with uh jay-z and kanye west um watch the throne album yeah and there i think it was no
01:28:47.440
church in the wild was the song in the preview and look it's it's a preview so maybe maybe they're not
01:28:52.180
going to utilize that but i think that so much of i heard they even put smoke detector chirps
01:28:58.260
inside no that's not true i don't think they did that i don't think that's true that's that's
01:29:02.440
actually misinformation um but i just worry that they're going to you said it's like training day
01:29:07.960
right like you're worried that they're going to go in that direction i just the the best films
01:29:12.160
oftentimes the best films have their own musical score so i'm just confused as to why you would
01:29:16.440
do this sort of did you hear that uh why you would do that sort of a thing and and and pull from modern
01:29:22.640
day music because the idea is to suspend your disbelief and be immersed in the story and i don't want
01:29:29.020
any kind of like cultural things that i can relate to like you know this jay-z song uh but that being
01:29:35.300
said when it comes to the original film gladiator what do you what did they get wrong in that film
01:29:41.200
um well the one of the bigger things is like how the forum would have actually looked um you could
01:29:45.900
if you guys look it up on on youtube you can kind of see different or on x or this is a different
01:29:50.460
place you can see what they actually would have looked like but they kind of mixed up some time
01:29:53.920
periods and i think that's what you see in a lot of these movies is kind of just time periods you
01:29:57.940
know kind of slipping on the track um so so that's a big one is is the forum would have looked
01:30:02.720
different um he um commodus likely didn't fight maximus in the um though he is as i saw strangled
01:30:12.580
by a wrestler named maximus later on that's where they probably get the name from um that likely
01:30:17.660
doesn't happen um commodus doesn't kill um marcus aurelius so that's you know he didn't hug him to
01:30:26.560
death no he and like aurelius is like most of his career fighting a northern tribe called the
01:30:30.880
macromani so that that is very realistic but there's and there's a number of like kind of
01:30:36.040
small minutiae points you could go to on this but it it's a good movie overall um the new one i haven't
01:30:41.380
seen um is it out it may be i don't know um i'm just kind of like like they have there's some
01:30:47.580
historical points i've already kind of taken you know a problem with like the first being
01:30:53.800
the emperor they try to portray is caracalla and um caracalla um wouldn't have been this blonde
01:31:02.260
haired blue-eyed guy with silver teeth or whatever the hell they do to him um he he was semitic so he
01:31:07.420
was actually um would have been born in the area of like phoenicia or northern africa so he would
01:31:13.120
have been much much darker skinned um not quite black but much much darker skinned and and a different
01:31:18.480
look um and he was also a military commander the name caracalla actually comes from the famous cloak
01:31:23.740
he used to wear all the time um and they try to make him look like this like pretty boy um spoiled
01:31:30.300
guy when he probably was was a brutal dude um in actuality so i think that portrayal is a little weird
01:31:36.560
um i they try to portray denzel denzel washington as macrinus um once again i haven't seen the movie so
01:31:44.040
i don't know how accurate they are this but macrinus would have been the praetorian prefect
01:31:48.600
under um caracalla and is actually part of the group of people that ended up killing um caracalla
01:31:55.000
now he doesn't precede caracalla immediately after that but macrinus will eventually become emperor for
01:31:59.540
about nine months okay so so what you're saying is on that front that's not it seems like they could
01:32:06.960
be going in the correct direction yeah it's it's not out of the out of the the realm of possibility
01:32:10.680
but i haven't seen the new movie enough to kind of have a basis to compare it do you have any
01:32:14.800
interest in seeing it are you gonna see it no believe it or not the same thing you said about
01:32:18.700
the soundtrack that actually really turned me off because i'm like oh man like you know what i mean
01:32:23.240
like you see one of those movies and you want it to feel epic yeah and if you take away the soundtrack
01:32:27.700
like that takes away the epic you know what i mean like star wars was great because john
01:32:31.360
williams did the soundtrack you know yes yes exactly uh lord of the rings was great because of the
01:32:35.820
so many of these i mean gladiator was fantastic because of the soundtrack is a scene at the end
01:32:41.860
where they are uh carrying his body as he is drifting away into death and he's having visions of moving
01:32:50.200
through that wheat field going to see his family and when he passes away and uh and everyone gathers
01:32:57.420
around him to lift him up it then transitions into uh a scene with the man the black guy who basically
01:33:04.280
became his best friend you know through hell uh and he is burying the clay figurines of maximus's
01:33:12.240
family and saying you know one day we will meet again not now but one day and their use of music
01:33:18.100
and and the transition from one song i think it was like called the wheat uh to another song i forget
01:33:24.160
what the what the name of that song was but it was indicative of like there was a sadness and then
01:33:28.660
there was this homage to his life with this power soundtrack and then it rolled back into the
01:33:33.860
sadness but it was a little bit more uplifting with his breath it was a masterful use of it it
01:33:38.260
sticks the movie culturally too to change the soundtrack you know what i mean like if you you
01:33:42.240
can watch a lot of great movies that were made from the 60s till now like um you know like the
01:33:47.900
original caesar movie and stuff like that because the soundtrack it's not stuck in any era like you
01:33:53.020
watch this movie 10 years from now and it's it's a movie that shouldn't be dated is now going to be
01:33:57.040
dated yes exactly that's the problem black annie is what yeah or uh um i do want to ask you one
01:34:04.460
more question and uh well one of the comments first asked if uh if roman empire had red lobster
01:34:09.500
well and soon no one will have red lobster that's right anyway that's right shrimping they were
01:34:14.120
that's what happens i think that would in very many ways endless shrimping is what uh destroyed the
01:34:18.780
roman empire but um i was told we had unlimited shrimp i don't understand um the last one i want
01:34:27.820
to ask you and and uh top i don't know if you have any questions after this but when it comes to
01:34:32.540
maximus himself i know it's like all of a sudden this is about the film but i love the film and i just
01:34:37.320
wanted to get your thoughts on like his character as a historical figure i i don't know really what they
01:34:45.580
would have based him on honestly so i don't know like he's kind of probably a kaleidoscope of
01:34:49.780
different characters they put together um because that would be typical for you know people in the
01:34:56.020
military and like other countries and things to serve in it or maybe if you went into debt in rome
01:34:59.520
you could serve as a as a gladiator um but honestly he just seems like a combination of a lot of different
01:35:05.480
people so i i don't know you know what to say he's based on interesting um you know what i mean like
01:35:11.440
there's different movies you can look at i'm trying to think of one recently i saw where they
01:35:14.380
actually based somebody on two characters but anyway go ahead no but i i that's interesting
01:35:19.600
because you would look at that film and you would imagine uh without having done any research that
01:35:25.220
this was an impactful historical figure and really the idea that he's an amalgamation of you know
01:35:31.700
probably the experiences of of a lot of people and then embellished oh you know what movie it was
01:35:37.580
um the new um gosh the new um oppenheimer movie there was a few characters in that movie that
01:35:45.180
were like amalgamations of what people they didn't know what to do with what to explain so
01:35:48.820
like it is liberty that they often take in hollywood okay it's almost a little bit sad
01:35:53.800
yeah that maximus wasn't wasn't really a dude damn that's a somber note to leave this just messed up
01:36:00.980
this whole day i'm sorry for me dude just ruined it unbelievable um top do you have anything else or
01:36:07.280
is this a good place to land it i think it's a good place to land it man um thank you for coming
01:36:11.340

01:36:17.400

01:37:02.940
indifferent on it they either love it or hate it i think there's no middle ground it's it's uh it's
01:37:07.900
the muscles under the suit that make you look like a dude who could have choked out uh

01:39:14.400
their eyes is what there is to see because they'll laugh in the face of an explanation that portrays
