Dennis Hopper Questions Authority

It’s been a tradition here at Dojo Rat to post this great scene from the movie “Easy Rider” every 4th of July. For those too young to remember the movie, I highly suggest you look it up and watch it. Lots of stereotypes are profiled, but the show does a great job of capturing the late 1960’s.
Shown in this scene are Jack Nicholson, Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper. Ironically, Hopper (in the fringe jacket) was not at all like his Hippie-Biker character in the movie. He was the son of a U.S. Intelligence officer and supporter of right-wing causes, bragging about his 30-year track record of voting Republican.
In this scene, Nicholson discusses the difference between individual freedom and a free individual. Sorry about the short commercial at the start of the clip, YouTube never used to have those.
Enjoy!

  • Two Very Different Takes On Biowarfare And Ticks
    Review: Two Very Different Takes on Biowarfare And Ticks These two books write about the spread of Lyme Disease, named after Old Lyme Connecticut near plum island. In “Bitten”, by Kris Newby (Newby herself has Lyme Disease) bases almost all her written work on a German called Willy Burgdorfer who worked at a Montana institute, […]
  • Review: Blood Meridian, By Cormac McCarthy
    “Review: Blood Meridian” I had to re-read the introduction by Harold Bloom to understand what I had just read. “Blood Meridian” is just that, bloody. But the prose by author Cormac McCarthy is indeed very good. I have collected another McCarthy book “The Road”, which I will read soon. In a way, I preferred the […]
  • One Nation Under Blackmail, Vol. 1 by Whitney Webb
    One Nation Under Blackmail, Vol. 1 by Whitney Webb I have done my darnedest to be accurate to Whitney and the publisher on this. In “One Nation Under Blackmail”, the subtitle is “The sordid union between Intelligence and Organized Crime that gave rise to Jeffrey Epstein”. In this volume, Epstein in seldom mentioned, but his […]
  • Movie / Book Comparison “Soylent Green” VS. “Make Room! Make Room!”
    It’s been a while since I read “Make Room! Make Room!”, and I just found “Soylent Green” on YouTube, so my comparison may be off a bit. I definitely liked the movie, starring Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson, better. The book that inspired the movie was good, but I thought the movie surpassed it. […]
  • Compilation Of Ancient America Books
    The Indigenous Paleolithic Of The Western Hemisphere Well, this book kicks off my reading of ancient/revision history. I gotta say, I learned quite a bit, but it wasn’t what I expected to learn. First of all, let me say this book, published by The University of Nebraska Press, was very expensive as books go. I […]
