Comp. Paranoid Analysis of Nazi Occultism (Pt. II): William Dudley Pelley, Wall St. Putsch, Silver Shirts, & the US-Nazi Business Nexus - TEASER

Welcome back to ParaPower Mapping. We cont. our comp. paranoid analysis of the history of Nazi occultism today by examining a fairly-forgotten figure in contemporary America: William Dudley Pelley—literal Nazi agent, Christian Theosophical crank, spiritualist, newspaperman, int'l espionage agent, screenwriter, reborn clairvoyant, founder of a UFO cult, Soulcrafter, publisher of shitty antisemitic magazines, & founder of the American Nazi paramilitary known as the Silver Legion. Full Version: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping But first, we attempt to parse the failed Wall St. Putsch (aka Bizness Plot), setting the stage for our investigation of Pelley, as various plutocratic & industrialist backers of the scheme, conspirators, & the legislative body that uncovered it (maybe involuntarily) figure into W.D.P's story. We're talking McCormack-Dickstein Committee, predecessor to HUAC; Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler, Alfred P. Sloan, I. DuPont, JP Morgan Jr., Prescott Bush, Felix & Max Warburg, Grayson Murphy, Gerald Macguire, etc.; a # of references to Henry Ford in this one. We discuss: Marine Corps Gen. Butler & the Bonus Army; possibility the American Legion was funded w/ coups in mind; FDR cucked by Wall St.; the Putsch's origins in Executive Order 6102; Biz Plot taking inspiration from German putsches; John L. Spivak's exposé in "New Masses"—gotta give it to Spivak for his farsighted analysis of the capitalist underpinnings of rising fascism in Germany & US; coup organizer Gerry MacGuire's sus death at 36 yrs old a mere year or 2 after the plan unraveled; the corporations that counted Murphy as board member; Robert Sterling Clark serving under Butler = potential complicity; Butler's undercover escapade in Standard Oil-backed int'l espionage; Butler, Clark, & Murphy's shared military campaigns (China, Boxer Rebellion, & Philippine-American War specifically); speculations about whether, contrary to the conscientious antiwar activist he's often portrayed as, Smedley was infiltrating socialist & communist mvmts in the US; Butler's military career lasting exactly 33 years (👀); Delta Upsilon bro & GM head Sloan (one of the conspirators) purchasing German auto co. Opel for $33.3 million (👀);... The Pelley fam's "knightly" roots in Southampton; their relative prosperity in Newfoundland; Pelley's misrepresentation of his youth as "hardscrabble"—they were petit bourgeois & upwardly mobile by Pelley's teen years; Pelley as elementary school newspaper mogul; Pelley's journalism & Hollywood career; Pelley drafted by the Methodist Centenary mvmt circa WWI to scout missions in Japan; cover for espionage work?; Pelley's early antisemitism & sus convo w/ an Army Surgeon in Japan that prefigured his Nazi turn, rhyming w/ his later NDE vision of "duck-suited" Army Dr's—the source of his racist mystic doctrine; Pelley writing anti-Bolshevik propaganda reports for the YMCA; the US consulate in Siberia enlisting his help in smuggling $750k & two Int'l Harvester workers from Siberia to Manchuria; his presence at the ceremony where Admiral Kolchak was given leadership of the White Russian Army; the eyebrow-raising possibility Pelley knew Grayson Murphy via the American Red Cross; Pelley's nurse fetish; American Legion - Silver Legion?!; Pelley working Russian jewel smuggling into his movies; another Pelley-Murphy connection; Pelley's ad agency in Hollywood & real estate investments; & finally, Pelley's incredibly sus NDE in a Cali bungalow; the dangers of self-hypnotization...
