The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
–Romans 1:18-20 (NIV)–

Now they are blacker than soot;
    they are not recognized in the streets.
Their skin has shriveled on their bones;
    it has become as dry as a stick.
–Lamentations 4:8 (NIV)–

Too much information
Well I said you’re good for nothin’
Come on to the back
I said your needles count for somethin’
Guess I’d better sell you now
Guess I’d better be around

Singin’ for your questions
But you’ve stolen all of my answers
Too much entertainment drove
And that’s not all the colour
Tell me that you’ve seen a ghost
I’ll tell you what to fear the most

Stop!
I said it’s happenin’ again!
We’re all wastin’ away!
We’re all wastin’ away!

Too much information
Well I said you’re good for nothin’
Stitch your part of counterfeit
I said your far out here
Takin’ at the roads
Where you’re taken for the simple codes

Swimmin’ with the fishes
While the serpent waves his tongue
With a belly full of splinters
Now you see that I’m the one
Tell me that you’ve seen a ghost
I’ll tell you what to fear the most

Stop!
I said it’s happenin’ again!
We’re all wastin’ away!
We’re all wastin’ away!

–Kasabian, “Empire”–

Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler watched movies a lot. While gangster films were a big deal in the early 1930s, academics have been able to conclude that Stalin drew heavy inspiration from a Russian civil war movie called Chapaev (1934), which idealized communism and socialism. He watched it over 30 times (Catriona Kelly, Soviet Art House, Oxford UP, p. 3). Hitler was apparently inspired by Viva Villa! (1934), which was about a gangster named Pancho Villa in Mexico, who caused a revolution and became a political leader–Hitler identified with this character (Bill Niven, Hitler and Film, Yale UP, 2018). The film Doctor Zhivago (1965) shows how Antifa-like demonstrations led to the communist takeover of Russia.
