ManThoughts with Peter Jordanssen: "MASTERING YOUR UNIVERSE" (PILOT) (Patreon)
Content
Basic idea is a parody of so-called "Intellectual Dark Web" YouTube figures; specifically the stripe doing pop-culture analysis with the reflexive alt-right/MRA/hashtag-whatever-gate "everything is aligned against men and boys" conspiracy angle tying every damn thing back to the "degradation of Western civilization" and in general using overly-florid verbiage to convince privileged persecution junkies that their exceedingly petty grievances really are part of a huge, politically-amorphous "struggle."
I like the script, I think I got the look and pace of the aesthetic about right for how these things really play (part of what I want to demonstrate is what an EASY grift this "renegade politically-incorrect intellectual" schtick is - just play to confirmation-bias and fill in the cracks with bullshit, anyone who challenges you is "one of the elite gatekeepers") ...not sure I'm the one to be doing the performance, though. If I took this to more sketches (I've got outlines for 3-4 more "lectures") I'd probably get a different actor as the main change - let me know what you all think.
P.S. Yes, watching the "real" videos of this kind of crap - including clips of similarly-named-fellow - was pretty nauseating as research goes. Hope you find it worthwhile ;)
