FAST FOOD, THE COLLAPSE OF THE CONFIDENCE GAME
“We may find in the long run that tinned food is a deadlier weapon than the machine-gun.”
From “The Road to Whigam Pier”, by George Orwell, 1937
When I was a kid, my dad would take me around the Lehigh Valley, driving miles to find the best cheeseburgers. My two favorites were Lentz’s in Allentown, and the Atlas Hotel in Northampton. Yocco’s cheeseburgers were pretty great in a pinch. The cheeseburgers at Dino’s in Emmaus were spectacular.
I grew up loving McDonald’s cheeseburgers. I really don’t get them very much anymore. What really pushed me over the edge was seeing a time-lapse video of one sitting unchanged as it was left out on a plate on a coffee table for six months.
The hamburger is the bread-bun and cooked meat sandwich the Neanderthal have been making since they settled at Catal Huyuk in 9,000 B.C., except they used human flesh back then. I seriously loves me some cheeseburgers, however the ones I eat are made from ground beef.
One of the great postive changes underway at this is exponentially decreasing fast food sales, with McDonald’s leading the way.
Now, if you opened up a McDonald’s selling the product that they sold originally, it would do tremendously, as Five Guys and others have scientifically proven. So, it’s not that McDonald’s “doesn’t get it”. It’s the fact that the people at the top of the control pyramid there worship Satan, and are under strict orders to denigrate and debase, which drive them to sell food that’s as high in Death energy as is humanly possible.
McDonald’s was founded in San Bernardino, California in 1940. For those keeping score, San Bernardino also produced the Hell’s Angels, at roughly the same time (1948).
Ray Croc came right out and said he worshipped Satan on national TV, talked about how much he donated to the church of Satan each year. Those were the days, right? It was the 70’s, you went for it. I’m guessing he was probably drunk.
It’s been memory-holed, and pretty successfully. The stories about it even point you to the wrong show, nay, wrong shows, in hopes no original VHS tape of the right one ever shows up.
(TV Guide issue featuring the Mike Douglas Show with Joel Grey, Dionne Warwick, Dan Haggerty and Ray Kroc Televised on Tuesday, June 7, 1978)
It was the Mike Douglas show, as you can see in the TV guide image I’ve included immediately above.
In November 2012, Canada’s Waterloo Chronicle published an article headlined “Satan’s choice: Was Ronald McDonald in league with the devil***?***”
Can you see how they switched Ray Kroc’s name for the evil clown that he used as a mascot for his business? Kroc’s name is nowhere to be seen. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “the bait and switch”.
The answer to the rhetorical question asked in the headline is answered in the subhead:
“A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its big, floppy clown shoes.”
Rhetorical question - noun - a question asked in order to create a dramatic effect or to make a point rather than to get an answer.
(McDonald’s representatives saying “I love you!” in American Sign Language, saying that they want to “rock on”, signaling their support for the Texas Longhorns football team, or praising their dark Lord, Satan, depending upon your point of view)
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Three of those variants are “ludicrous”, “silly” and “outrageous”.
That’s why the article goes on to say “In the late 1970s, McDonald’s officials faced a public-relations nightmare over a silly rumour that was too ludicrous to be believed. Yet, many customers bought it. According to the outrageous gossip, Ronald McDonald was in league with the devil.”
Once again, just as in the headline, the propagandist has put forward what is known as a “straw dog” (Ronald McDonald) to draw the lightning away from Ray Kroc.
Straw dog - noun - An argument or opponent set up so as to be easily refuted or defeated.
The article continues: “Officials chuckled when the first letter arrived at corporate headquarters in Illinois. An Ohio woman wanted to know if it was true that company owner Ray Kroc donated 20 per cent of the fast-food chain’s profits to the Church of Satan in California. Another letter arrived asking a similar question. Then another. Mail carriers delivered bags of envelopes with postmarks from across the United States. Suddenly, officials weren’t laughing anymore. Although they didn’t want to dignify the rumour with a response, the issue became too hot to ignore. Restaurant sales were falling.”
The author used the word “falling” because it’s it’s softer than “dropping”, and also as a thinly-veiled reference to the fallen Lord Lucifer. But the main reason it was used is because it’s general. As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
(The fall of Lucifer, from “Paradise Lost”, by John Milton, 1667)
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. Two of those variants are “ridiculous” and “we don’t know”.
That’s why the article goes on to say “We look ridiculous trying to refute something that is ridiculous,” McDonald’s spokesperson Stephanie Skurdy told the media in October 1978. “We don’t know where it’s coming from. It’s one of those ugly rumours that just persist, regardless.”
That’s because the first rule of politics is “deny, deny, deny”.
The article continues: “The company sifted through stacks of correspondence in an effort to determine the origin of the rumour. The Rev. John McFarland, pastor of Kenmore Church of God, explained to the McDonald’s communications department that a former parishioner had told him that she saw Kroc being interviewed on The Phil Donahue Show.”
As you can see from the image I’ve attached up above, Ray came out and plainly stated these things on the Mike Douglas Show, versus the Phil Donohue show, as falsely sworn, I guess upon on a whole stack of Bibles, by the Reverend John McFarland, pastor of Kenmore Church of God.
Can you see how “Kenmore Church of God” is general? Bizarrely, no location for the church is provided.
Can you see how “former parishioner” is general? Rev. McFarland made that shit up out of whole cloth, because he knew some honest person would have followed up with the specifically-named parishioner and confirmed that it was, in fact Mike Douglas.
For those late to the party, this is how propaganda works. Reverend McFarland has gained the confidence of a great many rubes, whom he is now involved in a Great Big Conspiracy to fleece.
That’s how “Confidence games” work.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “I don’t recall”, as famously utilized by former President Ronald Reagan. That’s why the article goes on to say “I don’t recall whether it was a question from the audience or someone who called in,” the woman told the pastor. “The McDonald’s president said he supported several charities and Satan’s church was one of them.”
Where you can see how “the woman” and “someone in the audience” and “the McDonald’s President” are all general.
We can see how the propagandist has walked back the specific “donated 20 per cent of the fast-food chain’s profits to the Church of Satan in California” back to the general “he supported several charities and Satan’s church was one of them.”
Can you see how the author has walked the specific “Ray Kroc” back to the general “the McDonald’s President”?
(Self-described member of the Church of Satan Ray Kroc being interviewed on an unidentified TV show)
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “disturbed”. That’s why the article goes on to say “McFarland thought the revelation was deeply disturbing, so he shared it with his congregation in the church newsletter, Moments of Sunshine.”
The Church newsletter, “Moments of Sunshine”, takes its name from the Atonist Black Sun cult that’s run things from the shadows in all the nations, well, all the way back to Babylon, and before.
The article continues: “It was brought to my attention a few days ago that the president of McDonald’s Inc., a multimillion-dollar enterprise, recently appeared on The Phil Donahue Show, a nationwide syndicated TV program,” he wrote.”
As a propagandist, Reverend John McFarland, pastor of Kenmore Church of God has repeated the falsehood previously perpetrated by the author of the article, namely the substitution of “Phil Donohue” for the correct “Mike Douglas”.
To maintain current programming levels, Coincidence theorists are going to want to breathe through their mouths and affirm “a simple mistake” and “sloppy reporting”.
Did you notice how Reverend McFarland walked the specific “Ray Kroc” back to the general “the president of McDonald’s”?
I’m sure you recall that is the same exact technique used by the author from the Waterloo Chronicle just previously.
Wrapping things up, Rev. McFarland says “Every time you and I have eaten at McDonald’s, we have unknowingly been financially supporting the worship of Satan and the promotion of his cause. Just the thought of it makes me feel sick inside. I don’t think I can ever eat at another McDonald’s under those conditions.”
He’s got his “honest church man” face back on, but the trail of careful propaganda betrays him.
The author continues:
“It was true that Kroc had appeared on Donahue’s talk show. The program originally aired in May 1977 and was repeated in June 1978.”
For those keeping score, that’s a spectacular third repetition of the incorrect show.
The article continues: “However, there was no mention of Satan or any of his minions, according to the official transcript of the program. After being published in Akron, the devilish rumour spread from church to church. Some of the details changed in the telling. For example, the amount of McDonald’s alleged satanic tithing varied from 10 per cent to 50 per cent.”
Can you see how the author walked the specific “Ray Kroc” back to the general “McDonald’s”?
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “startled”.
That’s why the author goes on to say “Some accounts had Kroc making the startlingadmission with Mike Wallace on CBS’ 60 Minutes or Johnny Carson on NBC’s Tonight show.”
Those two additional shows, both incorrect, are what is referred to in propaganda circles as “chaff”. To maintain current programming levels, Coincidence theorists are going to want to breathe through their mouths and affirm “a simple mistake” and “sloppy reporting”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “scary”.
That’s why the article goes on to say “It’s scary how a totally false rumour can spread,” Donahue told the Associated Press in 1978. “We know that pastors have been handing out church bulletins saying Ray Kroc said on the Donahue show that he supports devil worshippers. That is totally false and irresponsible. Kroc made absolutely no reference to the devil during the interview. But when a pastor hands things out, it has tremendous credibility.”
Spectacularly, and damningly, generational Satanist Phil Donohue avers with a straight face in an interview with the controlled press that he did the interview of Ray Kroc, when he did not, in fact do the interview - Mike Douglas did.
The article continues: “Kroc dismissed the rumour as best as he could. ‘I’m a God-fearing, God-loving man,’ he explained.”
Ray’s being straight up, to a point…he’s just not letting you know the name of the god he so loves and fears.
The article continued: “Confronted with the facts, McFarland published a retraction and an apology to McDonald’s in his next issue of Moments of Sunshine. Overall, he found the incident to be “really embarrassing.” As for the parishioner who spread the false information, he said: “She evidently wanted to hear it so bad, she just heard what she wanted.”
Controlled-opposition Mouthpiece McFarland has now walked it all the way back. And the single, unidentified parishioner remains general.
The article continues: “McDonald’s considered an advertising campaign to clear its name, but decided that doing so would only bring more attention to the allegation. Instead, the company launched a strategic initiative to silence the whispers. Executives appeared before church groups across the country with sworn statements from TV producers who said Kroc never said anything about Satan on any program.”
Can you see how “any program” is a hedging generalization to cover up the specific “Mike Douglas Show”? Can see how “TV producers” and “church groups across the company” are both general?
Where bulging sacks of mail shouting about Ray Kroc’s outspoken support of the Church of Satan in California have been walked carefully back to mere “whispers”.
The specific “Mike Douglas Show” has been walked back to the general “on any program”.
The article continues: “The McDonald’s rumor gradually died down. Unfortunately, it spread to other companies such as Procter & Gamble and Liz Claiborne, which faced threats of consumer boycotts following years of false claims about satanic charity.
Maybe it all could have been avoided if an Akron church newsletter had quoted a Bible verse such as 1 Timothy 5:13:
“And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.”
Can you see how the specific Ray Kroc rumor has been walked back to the general “McDonald’s rumor”?
And, so that, at last, completes the long, tortuous but ultimately very informative hit-piece claiming that Ray Kroc was not, in fact, a literally-blood-drinking generational Satanist.
In 1980, just two years after the probably-drunk Mr. Kroc spilled the beans on the Mike Douglas show, my friend, Bill, presciently called them “McDeath”, long before saying such a thing was fashionable.
Fast food breakfast traffic in the U.S. decreased 4% from 2009 to 2010. Restaurant News said it was due to “the nation’s high unemployment rate”.
In February 2010, “Restaurant News” said “Fast-food breakfast sales decline as fewer head to work”.
Where they used “decline” because it’s softer than “drop”, and because it’s general, and because it echoes the word “recline”. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
“Fewer heading to work” is a bullshit plausible-deniability excuse, put forward because many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
The article continues: “The nation’s high unemployment rate has thrown millions of people out of work, scared shoppers away from stores and threatened the economic recovery. Now it’s taking a bite out of breakfast.”
Where “taking a bite out of breakfast”, while smarmily alliterative, is general. Fast food breakfast traffic in the U.S. decreased 4% from 2009 to 2010.
In 2012, McDonald’s posted their first drop in sales in almost a decade. That’s 2012, right when the great Orgonite-driven positive changes I’m documenting got underway in earnest. Moral and mental health vary directly with that of the etheric environment.
Traffic in restaurants selling “fatty foods” decreased 15% from 2012 to 2013.
Traffic in restaurants selling “lighter fare” increased 11% from 2012 to 2013.
In November 2012, an article I can no longer locate asked “McDonald’s sales drop. Is it the food***?***”
Long John Silver’s began switching all U.S. restaurants to trans fat free cooking oil in 2013.
McDonald’s customer traffic at established locations dropped 1.6% in 2013.
The percentage of children eating fast food decreased nearly 20 percent from 2014 to 2015.
In January 2014, McDonald’s attributed a 3% sales drop in January 2014 to “cold weather”. They’ve used the plausible-deniability excuse “cold weather” because the propagandist knows the the subconscious of many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
They’re desperate to keep the populace from recognizing that moral and mental health vary directly with that of the ether.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “surprised”.
That’s why a U.S. News story from February 2014 is headlined “Surprise: American Sugar Consumption Is on the decline”.
They used “decline” because it’s softer than “drop”, and because it echoes the word “reclines”, and because declines are shallow and smooth. But they mostly used it because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
McDonald’s U.S. sales decreased 2.8% in August 2014.
In August 2014, The South China Morning post said that McDonald’s 7.2% decrease in sales in emerging markets was due to a “meat scandal”.
Chinese meat scandal” is a bullshit plausible-deniability excuse, put forward at the local level to take your eye off the larger trend I’m documenting here. The propagandist knows that many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
An article from August 2014 that I can no longer locate was headlined “YAY!! Sheeple are waking up to McDonald’s Factory Food!! Sales drop”.
They used the word “drop” because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
In the 3rd Quarter of 2014, McDonald’s U.S. sales decreased for the fourth consecutive quarter.
In the 4th Quarter of 2014, McDonald’s U.S. sales decreased for the fifth consecutive quarter.
In December 2014, syracuse.com said “McDonald’s Big Mac sales drop as customers become pickier eaters”.
They used the word “drop” because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
Can you see how they claimed that it was just Big Mac sales that had dropped by some unspecified degree, versus sales as a whole, which was in fact the case? That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
“Customers become pickier eaters” is Mil-speak for “have recognized that fast food has been weaponized against them”. Children who are “picky eaters” are bad, wrong-headed children. It’s a slap, a slur by the Fascist propagandist from Syracuse.com who supports McDeath and treads upon and deceives the people.
In January 2015, MultiBrief said “Fast food is witnessing a fast decline in US sales”.
Where “witnessing” a fast decline walks it back a step from actually experiencing that decline.
They used “decline” because it’s softer than “drop”, and because it’s general, and because it echoes the word “recline”. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
“Fast” decline pretends to be scientific, but is rather just another hedging generality.
In March 2015, Reuters said “Kids’ fast food consumption on the decline”.
They used “decline” because it’s softer than “drop”, and because it’s general, and because it echoes the word “recline”. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
“ON the decline” walks it back a step from the stronger “fast food consumption declining”.
While it’s true that kids’ fast food consumption is decreasing, it’s a half-truth, in that everyone else’s consumption is decreasing, as well. Saying it’s just “kids” is an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “disappointed”.
That’s why money.cnn.com article from July 2015 is headlined “McDonald’s sales plunge. CEO calls results 'disappointing’”.
“Plunge”, while lurid, is general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
It’s also a thinly-veiled reference to the fallen Lord Lucifer.

An article from April 2015 said that the percentage of children eating fast food decreased “nearly 20 percent”.
In May 2015, McDonald’s announced that it would no longer share its monthly sales numbers. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.
In July 2015, newspunch.com said “McDonalds sales drop worldwide as healthy food gains momentum”.
Now, that’s landmark, in that it has stated for the record that McDonalds food is unhealthy.
The word “drop” is general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, it goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” the phenomenon.
In July 2015, the Christian Science Monitor said “Fast food visits continue to decline in US”, and that “It seems that Americans are not eating out as much they used to.”
Where the Mouthpiece of the State has carefully shifted the argument from the quality of the food, to home-cooked vs. restaurant-prepared.

That’s why money.cnn.com article from July 2015 is headlined “McDonald’s sales plunge. CEO calls results 'disappointing’”.
You may have noticed that “sales plunge”, while lurid, is general. As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
In September 2015, “The Conversation” said “McDonald’s feels the pinch, but fast food is fighting fit.”
Can you see how “feels the pinch” and “fighting fit” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
In May 2016, kansascity.com said “Applebee’s, Bravo Brio sales drop amid U.S. casual-dining slump”.
Can you see how “sales drop” and “casual-dining slump” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
“Slump” falsely implies that sales that have “dropped” by some unspecified amount will pick right back up again soon.
In August 2016, CNBC.com said “Fast Food Restaurants Struggle Amidst Lower Food Prices”. The Mouthpiece of the State has carefully shifted the argument from the quality of the food, to the price. And even taken at face value, the argument is fallacious, as people are spending way more for organic produce than conventional, because they know that it’s worth it.
Can you see how “restaurants struggle” and “lower food prices” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
While in September 2016, businessinsider.com said “the simple reason fast-food sales are slowing: Groceries are cheaper.”
Where the Mouthpiece of the State has again carefully shifted the argument from the quality of the food, to the price. And even taken at face value, the argument is fallacious, as people are spending way more for organic produce than conventional, because they know that it’s worth it.
Can you see how “fast-food sales are slowing” and “groceries are cheaper” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
In September 2016, an article I’m now unable to locate said “The fast-food industry’s biggest problem got even worse in August as the cost of eating in got even cheaperrelative to dining out.”
Can you see how “biggest problem” and “got worse” and “got even cheaper” are all general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
“Cheaper home-cooked meals” is a bullshit plausible-deniability excuse, put forward at the local to blunt and defray awareness into the wider positive trend I’m elucidating here.
We’ve just seen that Kansascity.com, businessinsider.com and a third unidentified propaganda outlet are all in lock-step on the propaganda, which is released widely, in controlled, interleaved campaigns.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “complicated”.
That’s why a statnews.com article from September 2016 is headlined “Just how much sugar do Americans consume***?*** It’s complicated”. It’s an example of what is known in the intelligence trade as a “Hit-Piece”, which attempts to cloud the picture of steeply-decreasing sugar consumption.
In November 2016, the U.K.’s Telegraph documented “10 countries that banned McDonald’s”.
Can you see how they used the general “10 countries” instead of listing the names? That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. That’s why a hearty soul article from 2017 is headlined “Taco Bell finally reveals ‘mystery’ ingredients – they’re linked to cancer.”
Organic food sales in the U.S. increased 6.4% from 2017 to 2018, to the highest level in history. Foodbusinessnews.net said “Sales growth of organic foods slips to 6.4% in 2017”.
In January 2017, directly in the face of exponentially-decreasing McDonald’s sales abroad, Fortune said “ McDonald’s Sales Slow In U.S. But Growth ContinuesAbroad”. Where the Mouthpiece of the State Forbes has blatantly described exponentially decreasing sales as merely “slowing”.
Can you see how “sales slow” and “growth continues” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
In February 2017, the San Diego Union-Tribune widened its eyes to simulate honesty, wrung its hands and asked “Why are fast food visits slowing?” Where the Mouthpiece of the State blatantly described visits that decreased by some unspecified percentage as merely “slowing”.
Can you see how “fast food visits slowing” is general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.

In March 2017, melaninman.net said “McDonald’s to cut prices as fast food consumption falls to all-time lows”
The word “falling” was used because it’s it’s softer than “dropping”, and also as a thinly-veiled reference to the fallen Lord Lucifer. But the main reason it was used is because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
‘El Angel Caido, Madrid, Spain, Ricardo Bellver, 1877 - “Located in the gardens of the expansive Parque del Buen Retiro, this statue is 666 meters above sea level.”)
In May 2017, the New York Post pretended that they were not, in fact, a Fascist advertising agency with “You’re never too rich to eat fast food”. It’s a meme that really made the rounds.
That same month, working the press release across the international generational Satanist organization, Ohio State University said “For richer or poorer, we all eat fast food”.
Here’s Samuel L. Jackson reinforcing that same meme in 2015’s “Kingsman”:
(McDonald’s product placement in “the Kingsman”, 2015)
And here’s Jackson shilling for his fellow generational Satanist Ray Kroc back in Pulp Fiction, way back in 1994:

When you worship Death, it’s hard to not be true to your roots:
That’s why an adweek.com article from May 2017 said “McDonald’s Apologizes and Will Pull This Tactless Ad About a Boy and His Dead Father”.
Where the propagandist averred in the subhead “Approach to a sensitive topic goes awry.”
In May 2017, Bloomberg fumed and threatened “War on Sugar Turns Years of Growth Into Market Tipping Point”.
Where “market tipping point” is general, and, as I mentioned, an infantile threat that, if you don’t eat your sugar, you’ll collapse the economy.
“War on Sugar” is hysterical, and suggests that an otherwise-sane populace has been driven mad by crooked advertising suggesting that healthful sugar is, in fact bad for you. Versus the truth, that the populace has recognized that a great many of the medical ills that befall us as a society are driven by excess sugar consumption, foisted upon us by a Neanderthal establishment which has known that quite well all along.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. One of those variants is “shocked”. That’s why the article goes on to say: “Raw sugar’s 16 percent drop ranks it bottom of the 22 raw materials on the Bloomberg Commodity Index. Shocks to demand in …”
We can now see that “market tipping point” was a general hedge to obscure the far more impactful specific statistic that the generational Satanist author “buried” below. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headline, it goes a long way to “compartmentalize” the phenomenon.
In June 2017, zerohedge.com said “Restaurant Sales, Traffic Tumble: “The Industry Hasn’t Reported A Positive Month Since February 2016”
The word “tumble” is an oft-used meme that conjures a happy child running on grass, who “takes a tumble”, but jumps up, brushes off their knees and runs happily on again.
Restaurant sales in Singapore dropped 4.9% in June 2017.
In June 2017, Nation’s Restaurant News widened their eyes to simulate honesty explained “5 reasons fast-casual sales are falling”, without any of the reasons being that a sea change had taken place in humanity, who had become aware that fast food had been weaponized against them.
The word “falling” was used because it’s it’s softer than “dropping”, and also as a thinly-veiled reference to the fallen Lord Lucifer. But the main reason it was used is because it’s general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
In August 2017, Business Insider said “Campbell expects sales drop as people shunpackaged food”.
Where it looks like smart, with-it Campbell is positioned as a sharp observer of a misguided, fundamentalist public, hence “shunning”. Versus the truth, that the public has wised up to the health implications that go with the consumption of their products.
In September 2017 finance.yahoo.com said “McDonald’s shares drop amid hurricane sales concerns”.
The word “drop” is a general hedge used to avoid printing a far more impactful percentage. The Mouthpiece of the State puts forward the bullshit plausible-deniability excuse “hurricane sales concerns” at the local level to distract attention from the wider trend I’m documenting here.
In October 2017, The New Yorker bravely lied “Thanks to Wall St., There May Be Too Many Restaurants”.
In December 2017, Reuters said “McDonald’s new ‘dollar’ menu to intensify price war in 2018”. They’re playing it like McDonald’s is winning some masterful game of chess, when in fact they’re having to reduce the price of their product nearly to free to get people to consume it.
In January 2018, Eye on New York said “NY fast-food workers get latest minimum wage increase”. In April 2018, Fortune snidely said “McDonald’s Workers Say Company Breaking Minimum Wage Pledge”.
It gives the Coincidence Theorist the green light to say “oh, those McDonald’s workers will say anything!”, and turn the page. The propagandist knows that many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
In response to the collapse of the great fast food Confidence game, all of the big generational Satanist chains stayed in lock-step by offering offer cheaper, and thus ever-more-weaponized food to their shrinking constituencies. That’s why a Fox News article from January 2018 is headlined “McDonald’s, Taco Bell and Wendy’s debuting cheap menu items amid fast-food price wars”
In January 2018, right as McDonald’s was hitting bottom, Eater widened its eyes to simulate honesty and described “How McDonald’s Climbed Back on Top”, and went on to say “After years of declining sales, McDonald’s has seemingly righted its ship”.
Well, if that’s true, then why is an inc.com article from just two months later, in March 2018, headlined “McDonald’s Just Had the Single Worst Day in Its Company’s History”?
It’s not true. Eater is a Mouthpiece of the State, using conscious deception while maintaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty. I’ve exposed their duplicity by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
They used “declining” because it’s softer than “dropping”, and because it’s general, and because it echoes the word “recline”. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide insight into the magnitude of the trend I’m documenting here.
In March 2018, thrillist.com said “McDonald’s Quarter Pounder Is Getting a Huge Makeover”.
Can you see how “huge makeover” is general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” what’s going on. You can’t tell what sort of change McDonald’s has made by reading the headline.
The article continues: “McDonald’s Fresh Beef is Coming to All Locations in 2018”. After decades of using frozen meat infused with a substance called “pink slime”, and Satan only knows what else, McDeath has had to knuckle under, or go out of business in the face of the great positive changes that are occurring at this time.
It’s particularly spectacular when you factor in them starting out the chain with a burger made from fresh meat, a burger that everyone loved.
You see how the headline hedges by providing the general “huge makeover”, to avoid the public relations shame of having to admit they’re improving their deadly product in any way. As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda.
All of their evil, anti-life gambits are failing, every last one of them:
In March 2018, the Los Angeles Times said “McDonald’s workers quit as mobile-app orders and new offerings create chaos”.
Even-shitter, even-cheaper food interlaced with even-more Death Energy! And the public is not McDigging it.
McDonald’s earnings for Q1 2018 dropped 9%, year over year.
McDonald’s U.S. sales decreased 12% in the second quarter of 2018.
In March 2018, Business Insider said “McDonald’s is under pressure due to ‘deteriorating industry conditions‘ “ Can you see how they’ve postured it as if NO ONE could sell food under such conditions? Versus the truth, that the populace has recognized that McDonalds’ food has been weaponized against it.
In March 2018, food navigator-use.com assured “Ongoing ‘war on sugar’ is not cause for ‘panic just yet,’ stakeholders say”
It reads like a press account from Nazi Germany from 1944. The brave “ONGOING war on sugar” hopefully implies that the populace will start consuming more sugar as soon as a different flavor of marketing presentation urges them to do so. That’s what the world used to be like for these people. It’s all over but the crying for them, now.
McDonald’s U.S. sales decreased 27% in the second quarter of 2018. CNBC said “McDonald’s beats Wall Street estimates, but US sales growth cools”.
Come on, admit it. Only a practicing Satanist (or a career Military Intelligence agent, which is redundant) could call a 27% decrease “cooling growth”.
Can you see how “beats estimates” and “growth cools” are both general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
CNBC attributed the titanic decrease to “a nationwide recall of salads”.
The propagandists at CNBC bravely tried to “compartmentalize” the international collapse of McDonald’s merely to the U.S. by using the bullshit plausible-deniability excuse “a nationwide recall of salads."
In April 2018, describing a McDonald’s stock turn around which never actually took place, Investopedia explained “Why McDonald’s Stock Turnaround May Fizzle”.
A Forbes article from May 2018 Forbes article reads “McDonald’s Gets Kudos From Wall Street”. McDonald’s revenue decreased 12% in June 2018, year-over-year.
Forbes is a Mouthpiece of the State, using conscious deception while maintaining the firmness of purpose that goes with complete honesty.
I just have to go over that again. McDonald’s revenue decreased 9% in from January through March of 2018, year-over-year. A Forbes article from May 2018 said “McDonald’s Gets Kudos From Wall Street”. McDonald’s sales decreased 27% from April through June of 2018. A CNBC article described McDonald’s 27% decrease sales using the Mil-speak “cooling sales growth” that “beat Wall Street estimates”.
In May 2018, asyousow.org said “McDonalds’s Promises to Eliminate Foam Packaging by 2019 in Response to As You Sow Challenge”.
The McDeath Corporation is hoping to trick a last few rubes into consuming weaponized fast food disguised in “environmentally friendly!” packaging, because there is, indeed, a sucker born every minute.
On May 18, 2018, Ota.com said “Maturing US organic sector sees steady growth to a new record for an increase of 6.4 percent”.
On May 21, 2018 foodbusinessnews.net said “Sales growth of organic foods slips to6.4% in 2017”.
You can see the diabolical Satanic inversion practiced in the second headline, which defined organic food growth that had lifted to the highest level in history as “slipping”.
But don’t get the idea that ota.com is somehow on the right side of things. They slipped “maturing” on the front end to say, “yeah, but this is the last we’ll see of such growth. When they are in fact discussing growth that is exponentially increasing.
In July 2018, Restaurant News said “McDonald’s to push hard on value to step up sluggish guest counts”. Where “push hard on value” is Mil-speak for “increase the Death energy in the food served to their ever-shrinking constituency.”
In July 2018, in the midst of the failure of McDonald’s ‘gourmet’ overhaul, the New Zealand Herald widened its eyes to simulate honesty and questioned “Has McDonald’s ‘gourmet’ overhaul failed***?***”
In August 2018, directly in the face of failing McDonald’s and Burger King sales in all the nations, bettermarketing.pub explained “ - Why McDonald’s and Burger King are failing in Vietnam.”
They’re creating the illusion that it’s just Vietnam that’s the problem. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
Directly in the face of fast food chains collapsing in markets all over the world, the article continues: “Fast food chains dominate markets all over the world. But in Vietnam, it’s a different story. There, brands like McDonald’s and Burger King have struggled to take off.”
The propagandist bravely and falsely avers that McDonald’s and Burger King did, in fact take off, albeit after some struggle.
In September 2018, months after McDonald’s shares had gone rancid, thestreet.com said “ - Donald’s Shares Go Rancid – Golden Arches See Stock Dive”.
Did you notice that “stock dive” is general? As you may recall, generality is a hallmark of propaganda. Since sixty to seventy percent of readers only read the headlines, this hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the scope of the positive change I’m documenting here.
“Golden Arches see stock dive” walks it back from “stock dive” to “see stock dive”, which is removed a step from McDonald’s actually experiencing it.
In September 2018, the Los Angeles Times furrowed its brow and asked “Americans still love eating out. So why are restaurants like Chili’s, BJ’s and Cheesecake Factory struggling?”
I’ll return to the Christian Science Monitor article from 2015 that said “Fast food visits continue to decline in US”, and that “It seems that Americans are not eating out as much they used to.”
Consumer spending at restaurants and other food vendors including beverage sales, increased 4% from 2016 to 2018. They depend upon you not checking the facts, but rather gobbling down the plausible-deniability excuse whole, and moving on.
The LA Times continued: “But much of that growth has been outside of the casual-dining sector in areas such as inexpensive fast-food chains, “fast casual” outlets such as Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. and Panera Bread Co., takeout and delivery services, and independent restaurants — both mid-priced and upscale — that deliver a higher perceived value, analysts said.
Where the Mouthpiece of the state postured with a straight face that the larger issue we’re discussing did not exist.
The words “mystery”, “baffled” and “puzzled” are memes, used, among numerous similar variants, whenever anyone in the wholly-controlled-and-coopted Political, Academic, Scientific and Media establishments wants to lie about, well, basically anything. That’s why a New Yorker article from October 2017 is headlined “Subway scrambles to understand plunge in sales”.
The word “plunge”, while lurid, is general. The international news blackout that is in place on this subject strictly forbids the use of any statistics in headlines that would provide a keener insight into the trend I’m documenting here.
In September 2018, in an example of pure Mil-speak, Forbes widened its eyes to simulate honesty and explained “Why We Feel McDonald’s Is Undervalued”.
In October 2018, in an example of pure bullshit, Nasdaq.com widened its eyes to simulate honesty and whispered “Why McDonald’s Is A Killer Stock Pick For 2019”.
In October 2018, as McDonald’s refused to change their Death energy formula despite the collapse of the Corporation, Fox Business said “McDonald’s, Burger King get F on antibiotics report card”.
In December 2018, Vox.com used “Fast food isn’t so cheap anymore” as Mil-speak for “fast food is expensive”.
In January 2019, directly in the face of McDonald’s failing in every nation on Earth, cnbc.com said “McDonald’s failed in Bolivia”. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
In January 2019, directly in the face of McDonald’s failing in every nation on Earth, cnbc.com said “McDonald’s franchise failure in Iceland”. That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
The propagandist bravely used the hedge “franchise failure” to walk it back one step from “McDonald’s failure in Iceland”. Say what you will about them, there’s no quit in these guys, and of course galls.
In January 2019, directly in the face of overseas business failures in all the nations in 2018, Reuters said “McDonald’s warns of headaches in 2019 as overseas business booms”.
That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “pure bullshit”.
In January 2019, the U.K.’s Guardian said “Donald Trump’s fast food banquet – feeding the people Whoppers, as ever”.
It’s a clever bit of sleight-of-hand, hidden behind the plausible deniability of “oh, they just don’t know the culture that well!”, that the Guardian slammed Burger King’s “Whopper” and protected McDonald’s “Big Mac”.
The article continues:
“think we’re going to serve McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Burger King, with some pizza,” Donald Trump told the press in an interview on Monday morning, discussing the White House’s planned banquet that night for the Clemson University Tigers, in celebration of their victory in this year’s N.C.A.A. football championship. “I really mean it. It will be interesting. And I would think that’s their favorite food. So we’ll see what happens.”
Did you notice how he placed Burger King in third and last place, behind McDonald’s and Wendy’s?
He said “I would think that’s their favorite food” as a blatant reference to “negroes”…doing his best to polarize the populace and start a race war. The biggest irony of them all being that many blacks voted for him.
The article continues: “…on Monday night, the photos began to roll out of Trump grinning behind a mahogany dining table arranged with silver trays bearing stacked boxes of Filet-o-Fishes and Quarter Pounders, and McNuggets, and a few dozen of something in paper wrappers from Wendy’s, and piles of anonymous-looking salads, and a couple of pizzas, and Burger King fries that some hapless aides had decanted into paper cups bearing the Presidential seal."
(Former President, dry-drunk and Diet Coke addict Donald Trump shilling for McDonald’s)
Did you notice how the first three products are all McDonald’s? Did you notice how the corporations are in the same order as previous, with Burger King last?
Did you notice how the Big Mac was protected from mention?
Did you notice how the Burger King fries were slapped to last, after “anonymous-looking” salads, “a couple of” equally anonymous pizza’s?
The amazing thing about the con is that everyone refuses to believe that dry drunk and Diet Coke addict former President Donald Trump reads a teleprompter,
As dedicated practitioners of the false religion known as “Coincidence Theory”, they cannot conceive and refuse to believe that this is a scripted move by a scripted-clown asshole who is part of a larger “confidence game”.
I think he’s playing a Bad Cop, and is driving us toward something. I think its the long game for our new Communist Red Chinese overlords. Please recall that the Great White Brotherhood came out of China. Their HQ is said to be beneath the Gobi desert, which is in China.
In January 2019, in a signal demonstration of the downfall of the generational Satanist cartel, the Washington Post said “ - McDonald’s loses Big Mac trademark after legal battle with Irish chain”.
The article goes on to say “McDonald’s lost the Big Mac trademark after a legal battle with Supermac’s, an Irish fast-food chain. (The name comes from owner Pat McDonagh’s nickname in his heyday as a college Gaelic football player.) … It prevents bigger companies from hoarding trademarks with no intention of using them.”
You can see now how the author of the article bravely replaced the specific “Supermac’s” with the general “Irish chain” in the headline. That boxes out the sixty to seventy percent of readers who only read the headlines from ever learning the name.
That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.
On January 30, 2019, xxlmag.com said “Drake Goes to McDonald’s, Gives Two Employees $10,000 Tips”
On January 31, 2019, insider.com said “McDonald’s says Drake gave 2 of its employees $100 tips, not $10,000 as was previously reported
It’s all an Op, in which generational Satanist co-Conspirators Drake and McDonald’s get the buzz and the publicity, and the retraction is seen by a fraction of those who read the first article.
While Coincidence theorist will say, without fail, “that’s a simple journalistic error.” That’s because many or most readers will grasp virtually any McDonald’s straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.
