I would say she coinvented spread spectrum. Radar had been around, She and George Antheil devised frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) to protect torpedo radar from jamming.
I’ve always thought that the word “conspiracy” was way too strong for these types of situations. But then again the fact itself, that certain Jewish people run most Hollywood studios is true.
I have read that the Powers-that-be made sure Jewish folk were in charge so any accusations against them would be labeled anti semitism.
Not just certain Jewish people. We were told it was the jews.
You seem to be under the impression that the expression “the Jews” can only be understood to mean “every single Jew in the world working in concert.” I don’t believe that is a reasonable interpretation, even if some crazy RWNJs would like to believe it.
We are not crazy, right-wing, or nut-jobs.
Whether you realize it or not, that is exactly the interpretation intended by those who say “the jews control Hollywood”.
Edward Dale Durston (the car salesman: not David Edward Durston, the small-time director. The internet will misdirect this story onto David more often than not).
Durston was present when Diane Linkletter defenestrated herself in 1969. Father Art went on an anti-drug crusade even though toxicology revealed none in her system.
Durston was also interviewed during the investigation into the Sharon Tate murders, but no connection was made then or since.
In 1985, Durston was again the only person present when Carol Wayne disappeared while on vacation together in Mexico. He claimed she left the hotel without him, so he dropped her luggage at the airport and went home alone. Her body was later discovered in the ocean. Mexican police accepted it as accidental and didn’t press Durston.
He died in 2007, having sold innumerable cars and three solid alibis.
This one is perhaps borderline because I think t’s not entirely crazy. In 1959 George Reeves (TV’s Superman) was killed by a gunshot to the head in his bedroom while a party was going on in the house. It was ruled a suicide, but there’s a persistent theory that he was murdered. I think it was suicide, but there are some things that are hard to explain, like a lack of fingerprints on the gun and unexplained bruises on his body.
In terms of strange Hollywood deaths, Brittany Murphy died of a supposed pneumonia and then just five months later her husband also died of pneumonia in the exact same house. This has sprung up all sorts of conspiracy theories from being killed over possible drug debts to a legitimate “star killer” organization.
I was genuinely sad when I heard of her death. She was a good actress and seemed like a nice person.
I remember at the time the going theory was that her husband who was older and not conventionally attractive killed her (jealously, etc etc)…and then he died. Wasn’t it settled or highly likely that both got ill and died from exposure to toxic mold in their home?
According to Wikipedia toxic mold was something thrown out as a theory but the police never tested for it.
Yeah someone saying “the Jews control X” is absolutely 100% not saying there is a higher percentage of Jewish people in senior positions in industry X than in the population as a whole. They are definitely saying there is an international conspiracy in which most or all Jewish people are involved in, and that cabal controls industry X.
I’m a cis, hetero, white, American male, so therefore a default member of any number of cabals and I would like to know where the hell my checks are! I would assume that Jewish people have this same issue. That’s the real problem with cabals, they just don’t pay their bills - it’s almost like they don’t actually exist, but that can’t be true, right?
It’s almost like critical thinking may not be a particular strong point of people who use the term The Jews
It did make some think that torture not only was okay in some cases, but that it works. Hint- it doesn’t.
Well, there are some odd coincidences. But no, it wasnt done on purpose.
There was the rumor that Lady Gaga was male or trans or something. Wikipedia announced a ban on that rumor. True, she was being mysterious.
They’ve/We’ve got control of Twitter now?
I thought Xians meant someone else.
SSHHHHH! Don’t tell Elmo!
Hell I’m not giving up the use of X as a unknown quantity just cos some rich racist dickwad has been obsessed with the name “X.com” since the 90s
