Why Does Microsoft Even Want to Associate With Satanic Ritual Cults and Marina Abramović?

Does Microsoft wish to actively associate with occult?

Marina Abramović in MSN (Microsoft) News
Reality? Really? This was on MSN (Microsoft) News yesterday...



Summary: Microsoft's 'news' sites fail to heed the warning or the toxicity (bad publicity) associated with Marina Abramović and they promote Microsoft's proprietary software using not only militarism (goggles for the Army) but borderline cannibalism

THIS may sound truly ridiculous (because it is). What does Microsoft have in common with Satanic 'spirit cooking' rituals? Watch what has just been promoted as a "World Tour" in MSN? It's promoted shamelessly in a Microsoft site (MSN is fully controlled by Microsoft), which does marketing and propaganda for the company rather than objective news.



One reader asked us: "Ever hear of “spirit cooking”?"

"If not, read up on what came of the Podesta Emails via Wikileaks and then check this out."

"I wrote a lot about this as soon as Podesta E-mails came out," I responded, though "I didn't take that to be or to mean what some people claim it to be... but it showed how debased, irrational and bloodthirsty some people are. They think these cults are entertainment...

"Maybe they just got bored of their yachts and stuff..."

"The only surprising thing is that Microsoft is willing to associate itself with that occult lunacy to promote its proprietary software products."For those who don't know, these silly rituals, which involve blood and breast milk (from humans) -- sometimes even parts of carcasses like animal skulls -- are beyond bizarre. They're described as performances, but any members of the public who are amused by sticking pins and consuming blood (or milk intended for babies) or whatever the hell they do probably need to visit a psychiatrist to have their heads examined.

The only surprising thing is that Microsoft is willing to associate itself with that occult lunacy to promote its proprietary software products*. Unreal! Maybe they'll name a successor to Vista 10 "Windows Epstein Edition" as an homage to a close friend of Bill Gates. ____ * These products have failed in the market, so Microsoft will settle for anything to create the false perception of widespread use.
