Everybody thinks Hollywood is political. Everybody’s wrong.

You know that the big movie studios, comic book companies, and video game publishers push an agenda. What you don’t know is that the corporations in control of your entertainment aren’t grifters or ideologues. They’re evangelists of a fanatical anti-religion.

Movie producers don’t ruin beloved film franchises for profit. Comic book writers don’t warp iconic superheroes into self-parodies to sway voters. They hate their audiences with zealous fervor. They want you demoralized, they want your kids propagandized, and they want you to pay for the privilege.

Nostalgia-fueled habit keeps many of these cultists’ victims coming back for more abuse. But you can escape the cycle. In this book you’ll see how the corrupt entertainment industry hooks its customers, and you’ll gain the tools to reclaim your dignity from the Pop Cult.

Learn to stop paying people who hate you, take back your life, and have fun while you’re at it! Read on!

A Brutal But Truthful Book

Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2020

Verified Purchase

Don't Give Money to People Who Hate You is one of the best books I've ever read this year.

The writing in each sentence is sharp as a knife and makes clear that the corporations, that are a part of the Death Cult, hate normal people and will stop at nothing to destroy the Christian foundation of Western Civilization.

Brian's storytelling truly shines bright in chapters such as The Seduction of Brand X and A Gen Y Tale.

Brand X is a tale that describes the story of an artist who creates a successful brand that eventually mutates into a decaying product with no semblance of soul.

A Gen Y Tale is a beautifully written short story that describes the typical hyper-consumer of nostalgic pop culture. The thought-provoking ending is right on par with the material written by Satoshi Kon.

Overall, I loved this book. It's a short but enthralling read that I can't recommend enough, especially to Christian artists.

Vagabond of Letters

Nothing special for a Rightist

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

Nothing I didn't know - perfect for your bluepill friends who still consume this propaganda-in-franchise-clothing schlock, but won't read Duke's 'My Awakening' or other Amazon-banned books. The downside is how terribly written the book is. It reads like a series of not-especially-good blog posts cobbled together, but offers action items and the outlines of a constructive plan for Westerners and Whites to dig ourselves out of this Leftist-Jewish hegemonic media mess. For this, though the writing is at best a 1.5, I give the book a 4.

This book should be completed with 'The Trojan Mouse'.

Niemeier never names the Jew, so make sure you accompany it with, preferably, The Culture of Critique. Since that's been banned by all major booksellers, unless you can find a copy or are willing to pirate it (I have pdf and kindle versions for the asking, and donate $10 to the author for each copy distributed), you can settle for Gabler's An Empire of Their Own (a chronicle of Jewish power in Hollywood written by a Jew), or Primetime Propaganda (if your friend is a boomercon who can stand Shapiro, this work is basically a history of TV, but Shapiro is at self-congratulatory pains to point out all of the conservative 'contributions' his fellow tribesmen have made to the media. That reminds me of the unfunny joke that what conservatives conserve is Leftism).

Knowing that the 'Death Cult', as the author calls it, exists is one thing; knowing who founded it, for what purpose, and what drives their hatred of Whites and goyim is another. If your friend is solidly anti-leftist and holding the red pill in his mouth, a copy of The Dialectic of Enlightenment, the seminal work of the Frankfurt School, will be sufficiently enlightening and persuade him to swallow. For normies, there's too great a risk of driving them in to the committed leftist camp because it appeals to stuff we've been brainwashed to accept for three generations. Kind of like handing an egalitarian a book of Boasian anthropology: it'll make him a committed cuck, unless he's already questioning, in which case the thin tissue of arguments used to support egalitarianism, when seen in full light, will give him a hard shove in to the heresy of human biodiversity.

A kick in the pants to those of us who are still drifting along sedated by nostalgia

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2020

Verified Purchase

Brian Niemeier‘s 90-page book Don’t Give Money to People Who Hate You, is a kick in the pants to those of us who are still drifting along sedated by nostalgia, still paying for the privilege of a front-row seat to the mutilation and ultimate destruction of our own culture, willfully oblivious to the contempt and hatred of those who have appointed themselves our betters. I needed that kick – while I have long since revoked access to my wallet to Hollywood movies, and have never been much for games and comics, I still sometimes click on mainstream news articles and shop with major corporations. As explained below, these are now as much of the problem as the direct culture war waged in films and print. Many major corporations do all in their power to prove their hatred for me and mine and everything we believe and love. Don’t give them your money. Don’t give them your clicks.

So if you still are paying to consume blockbusters, comic book movies, video games, mainstream books and comics, or patronizing sports teams, retail outlets and ‘news’ media that have gone way, way out of their way to let you and the entire world know they hate you and everything you love – read this book. Now.

DGMTPWHY provides a quick tour through the who, when, where, what, and why of our current state of all but unwatchable, unreadable and unplayable ‘entertainment. The creators of mainstream entertainment have gotten converged, and, despite the hit to their corporate wallets, are now purveyors of nihilist propaganda masquerading as movies, comics, books, and games.

They must subvert and destroy what we, the sheep they despise, love. Manly men trying to be honorable, heroic and manly, and feminine women trying to be honorable, heroic and feminine, are right out – they are tools of the patriarchy, the cultural hegemony of oppression under which we sheep labor, and from which our purple-haired, nose ringed genderfluid betters are going to save us – or make sure we die from their trying. A character as complex as Rick in Casa Blanca, or even Luke in Star Wars, is to be simplified for the purposes of the cause. If you are so unwoke as to *like* such complex characters, well, our betters plan to fix that – by stories with no heroes and no villains, which leaves them with no plots or even logic. So things blow up.

And, of course, this all boils down to hatred of God. I’ve long held that all heresies are denials of the Incarnation. The basic ingredients of the dogma are a transcendent yet merciful God, creator of the Universe, Who, in an unfathomable act of humility and love, becomes one of us, suffers for us, and saves us. He defeats evil, and gives us hope. The purveyors of modern culture reject and mock each of these ingredients one by one, specifically. There is no God, nor any evil to defeat, nor good to defend. There can be no heroes, and no villains. Nothing is created from love, which is a lie. Humility is stupid; suffering is pointless. Only power matters, if anything matters.

There is no hope.

Modernism, of which this whole cultural war is the current manifestation, battles to defeat the good, the true, and the beautiful, even in such seemingly trivial forms as comic books and movies. But popular entertainment, from Homer to Shakespeare to Star Wars, is the way a culture is defined, nourished, and passed along. Just because it’s Batman and Thor getting the Social Justice treatment instead of (for the moment) Bach and Dante, doesn’t make it less dangerous Indeed, a lot more people have their morality formed by Superman and Harry Potter than by Milton and Flannery O’Conner. In a sane, healthy society, the popular culture and the highest high culture are formed by, share and communicate the same moral messages. For a century or more, that has not been the case in the West: our high culture is a cesspool of nihilism, while, up until the last 50 years, popular culture was still dominated by the theme of good versus evil – and the now novel idea that it’s better if good wins.

Brian published this work in April, before the rioting and the Antifa/Black Lives Matters psyops took over the ‘news’, and wrote it, I imagine, before the COVID hysteria and lockup. These are of a piece: the same people who show their hatred of you in movies and books have broadened their channels, and now show their murderous intent through the flexes and humiliation rituals of the lockup and masks and ‘social distancing’ (a phrase no one had heard of 4 months ago that is now treated like the Wisdom of the Ages), and by their apologetics, encouragement, and approval of those who would literally burn our country down. They destroy statues as phase one of an effort to memory hole anything that doesn’t conform to their contempt. I exaggerate not one iota when I say: Antifa and BLM dream of getting to kill you and your family. They are driven by the Marxist fantasy that bad people on the Wrong Side of History are all that stand in the way of paradise on earth. That paradise is the glorious End that justifies any means, including the slaughter of all who, in the minds of the Marxists, oppose it. Stalin and Mao, with their purges and Great Leap Forward, are not seen as history’s greatest criminals, but as role models. You and I are those bad people. They want us dead.

Don’t believe me? Read what they have to say for themselves.

The companies that even today are bending the knee and falling all over themselves in their rush to issue statements, not in condemnation of wanton property destruction and threatened and real physical harm up to and including murder, but rather in *support* of the rioters and vandals. The very idea that there are significant numbers of ‘peaceful protesters’ was always ludicrous: useful idiots and bored, antsy teenager of all ages, sure. Large numbers of people who take to the streets for weeks on end because a fellous thug who once robbed a pregnant woman at gunpoint while she pleaded for her life got himself killed by an out of control cop who is in jail awaiting trial?

That’s not what’s happening.

Back to the book. I know what Brian is talking about. Star Wars came out the summer after my freshman year in college. My girlfriend at the time kept raving about this movie we had to go see, even though she’d seen it several times already. I, a callous sophisticate as only a 19 year old can be, remained cool.

Then we hit the theater – with a line around the block. From the first scene, I was hooked. Awesome, and so much fun! So, of course, went back several times, and saw the sequels also several times each in the theaters, and got the videos as soon as they came out, and did my best to wear them out. So, yea – I get it.

Even after the road kill that was the prequels, with dread in my heart, I went to see the Force Awakens – and was mildly entertained. BUT – never felt the slightest urge to see it again, or get the DVD. Upon reflection, the movie got worse and worse: the pageantry and special effects – and the still-not-bone-dry well of good will earned by the original trilogy – distracted me from the cardboard characters, the utter lack of character development, the stupid, derivative plot, the relentlessly nonsensical motivations (or lack thereof) driving what little story they had. Rather than Luke’s textbook hero’s journey, we get a total Mary Sue; rather than family, honor, and friendship invigorating the characters, we had – what, exactly?

I’ve seen none of the subsequent movies. Since Brian first mentioned his rule – never give money to people who hate you – a few years ago, my inchoate disgust got a name and a focus, and rather than just avoiding movies because I didn’t want to feel used, I began avoiding them on principle – the principle of this book.

Now, we need to expand the field in which this dictum operates to include all corporations and businesses that have kowtowed to BLM and Antifa: No, Corporate America, you do not need to prove you aren’t racist by anything beside treating all your customers with respect, providing good value for the dollar, and hiring and promoting people based solely on how well they do those first two things. Pandering to bullies earns my contempt, not my dollars; actively supporting people who want me and mine dead gets me fired up to look for and promote alternatives to anything you might offer.

Uninspiring book version of a YT video

You know youtubers who report on twitter squabbles between creators and fans about movies, comics, or video games? Well, if you prefer this type of content - now it comes in book form, complete with quotes from twitter of said creators that sparked the fans. I am not sure what to make of this book. I expected to find the answer why it seems like endless remakes, reboots, and reworks of old content are rarely good, but I did not find it. Well, I wouldn't consider 'because the people who made them hate you, their customer' the answer, really. Overall, I regret spending money on this book, but cannot in good conscience return it, because it's not amazon's fault that the book was uninspiring.

The paper quality is good though.
