Money or Morals?

[grinner]

I'm not familiar with those titles but whatever. I have an hourly rate. As long as that is met, we're good. I make my own productions to make statements I beleive in. As an editor, it's my job to best convay THEIR message. Heck I'm a peace lovin' hippie and was working for the NRA last week. I in no way have to believe in their message to convay it better than the post-house down the street.

They're from Nazi propaganda films. The original Triumph of the Will was a propaganda piece celebrating Hitler and the Nazi Party, while the original Der Jude Suss was a film designed to cultivate Jew-hatred on the part of German movie audiences.

Okay, you would have happily helped put Nazis in power and advance their policies, so long as they met your rate. Well, you wouldn't have been alone.

It must be convenient, having no ethics beyond pay me my rate. You should move to Los Angeles; you'd probably make it big-time here.

Mel Gibson is still making movies?

I have turned down porn flicks myself and I have no regrets in doing so. But If the money is right I could live with myself in almost any other arena.

People being weak-minded enough to take propaganda as fact has never been my problem or worry. Like I said, I made videos for W. It's not as if he was speaking the truth while speaking to me. I was more entertained than offended and there were many vidiots standing in line to accept money should I have passed on the gig. Itw as just another gig to me. Used car salesman... dude running for something. Whatever.
I did feel bad about exploiting God when working for TBN though. One night during a Praise the Lord show, er service as they called it, I looked out at the audience from backstage. Every face I saw was high and it dawned on me there are far worse addictions they could be feeding at that moment. No victims. They were very happy to throw their money toward what they were told was salvation. It had nothing to do with the services I provided.

Sure. And running a death camp is just like running any other kind of operation. It's not like other people wouldn't line up to do it for the $$$ if you passed, right? And making propaganda to help people get the death camp up and running, is much the same.

It's fascinating to encounter someone so devoid of ethical character. People like you - well, people like the persona you're displaying, here - are the ones who make every dictatorship and genocide possible.

"Don't bother me with moral considerations; I can make some money here."

Disgusting.

I consider myself as a having high morals and integrity. I feed a family of six by making videos and simply can't afford to have opinions about them. While I do see and understand your view point, surely you can see mine as well. No need to make this personal. Actually, that's how I am able to make videos I have no passion for... I check my personal beliefs at the door.
