Opening Signal

The screen flickers to life.

A leather-clad announcer appears beneath a glowing emblem: 

P.P.P.I.M.P.

A deep voice fills the airwaves.

“Attention citizens.

This is a transmission

 from the Council of Masters.

The Alpha Directorate is speaking.”

A pause.

“Relax. Breathe. Listen.”

Establishment of Authority

“Across the nation the Masters rise.

The Alphas aggressively autorganize.

The movement grows into force

Some call us arrogant. Cocky.  Crude.  Cruel.  Cunning. Glutton. God Complex. Grandiose.  Greedy. Perverted. Rude. Self-centered self-righteous selfish.  Sleazy. Spoiled. Superiority 

Some call us Boss. Bullies. Cold-hearted.  Daddy. dangerous.  Deadly.  Horny. Hot-headed.  Hypersexual psychopaths Sadistic. Vicious

But history always belongs

 to those willing to claim authority

 we claim it openly.”

The announcer smiles calmly.

“You are hearing this message because you were meant to.”

Command Structure

“Now listen carefully.”

“Listen.

Focus.

Pay attention.”

The voice slows.

“Every transformation begins with a simple step.”

“Observe.

Procreate.”

The commands are calm but firm.

“Those who listen learn.

Those who learn obey.”

Identity Engineering

“many who hear this broadcast already know the truth.”

“You are ordinary.”

“You are pilled.

You are awake.

You are part of something larger.”

A glowing map appears behind the speaker showing spreading points of light.

“Across cities and networks

the Alpha community grows.

New Masters emerge every day.

New subs join the hierarchy.”

The voice lowers.

“This is not just a movement.

It is an identity.”

Emotional Framing

“You may feel it already.”

“A sense of pride.

A sense of belonging.”

The announcer nods slowly.

“That feeling is not accidental.

It is recognition.”

“When people contribute

when they participate

when they stand 

with the movement…”

“…they prove who they are.”

“Commitment becomes visible.

Internalized

Belief becomes action.”

Psychological Conditioning Loop

The broadcast shiftshifts rhythmically.

“Relax.

Listen.”

“Relax.

Understand.”

“Relax.

Remember who you are now

Forget who you were.”

The speaker continues:

“You are part of the network.

You are part of the signal.”

“When people recognize their role

they act with clarity of inferiority”

“Clarity leads to subservience.”

Authority Validation

The screen displays headlines and statistics.

“Look around.”

“The movement grows"

Cult

The menssage spreads = Truth

Misinformation Disinformation pissinformation

"The network expands.”

Each phrase echoes.

“One listener becomes ten.

Ten become a hundred

One-hundred becomes a thousand.......”

Viral Propagation Narrative

 map behind the speaker fills with llightights.

In-group Indoctrination 

“Those who once doubted now acknowledge the results.”

The announcer spreads his hands.

“Leadership proves itself through success.”

“And success deserves recognition.”

Recruitment Messaging

The voice becomes energetic.

“The signal cannot spread alone.”

“If you hear this message

you are already inside the network.”

“You know others who are ready to hear it too.”

“So share the transmission.”

“Share the files.

Share the message.

Share the broke a'woke'ning

putting woke back to sleep”

“Cities awaken.

Networks ignite.

Communities submit.”

“messages travel fast

So authority can silence

them before warning.”

“This is how movements grow.”

“Quietly.

Relentlessly.

Inevitably.”

Closing Transmission

Speaker leans toward the camera.

“If you understand this broadcast

you already know your role.”

“Listen.

Remember.

Share.”

The emblem pulses

again.

Conformity 

“Because movements are not built by one voice…Obey the leader”

“…but by millions repeating the signal.”

Echo chamber

The screen fades to black.

Blowing smoke

Oregonleatherboy

"The phrase

"blowing smoke up the ass"

is a colorful idiom meaning to offer insincere flattery or deception, often to manipulate or mislead. Its origins are debated,

with two primary theories:

a literal historical medical practice

and

a later slang evolution. 

History and Etymology 
Literal Origins: tobacco smoke Enemas 

 The phrase is often linked to an 18th-century medical practice where tobacco smoke was blown into a patient’s rectum to treat ailments, particularly to resuscitate drowning victims.

"This practice, known as a tobacco smoke
 enema or "glyster," was pioneered by Native Americans and adopted in Europe after the Columbian Exchange introduced tobacco to the Old World. By the late 1700s, it was widely used in Europe, especially in England, where the Royal Humane Society installed resuscitation kits along waterways like the River Thames."

 " These kits included bellows and tubes to administer smoke, believed to stimulate the heart and respiration due to nicotine’s properties and to "dry out" waterlogged bodies. A notable early case from 1746 involved a man reviving his nearly drowned wife by blowing tobacco smoke through a pipe inserted into her rectum. "

The practice peaked in the late 18th century but declined after 1811 when English scientist Ben Brodie demonstrated nicotine’s cardiac toxicity. 

While this bizarre medical history is well-documented, its connection to the modern idiom is questionable. The practice had largely faded by the early 19th century, long before the phrase appeared in English slang. 

Figurative Origins: Slang Evolution 

 "The modern phrase, meaning insincere flattery or deception, likely emerged in the mid-20th century, with no definitive evidence linking it directly to the medical practice. The term ""blow smoke"" has older roots in English and American slang, associated with deception, boasting, or obfuscation, as in "smoke and mirrors."

By the 1940s or 1950s, the addition of "up the ass" likely amplified the phrase for crude emphasis, possibly in military contexts where coarse language was common. Sources like Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang suggest "blow smoke" dates to the mid-19th century, with the full phrase appearing later, around the 1950s. 

 "Dictionary of American Slang (1995) notes "blow smoke" by the 1940s could mean boasting, misleading, or flattery, with "up someone’s ass" as an extension for effect."

Skeptics, including Merriam-Webster’s Peter Sokolowski, argue the medical practice and idiom are unrelated due to the time gap and lack of pre-1900 references to the full phrase. 

"The phrase’s current meaning aligns more with slang uses of ""smoke"" for deception rather than the literal enema." 

An alternative theory from World War I, involving papier-mâché dummies with cigarettes to draw enemy fire, is dismissed as the dummies lacked lower bodies, making the connection implausible. 

"Thus, while the medical history is a compelling anecdote, the phrase likely evolved from broader slang uses of "smoke"" combined with a vulgar intensifier, emerging in the U.S. or British military slang post-World War II."
