Description

A mix of parody religion and intellectual philosophy that emerged from the psychedelic 60s, the ideas of Ayn Rand and the growing paranoia of the Nixon era, Discordianism gave birth to 'Operation Mindfuck', an organized attempt to spread the now infamous ‘Illuminati’ conspiracy theory — the belief that an ancient club of what were actually pro-enlightenment Bavarian rationalists secretly control the world. This is the story of Robert Anton Wilson, Kerry Thornley and other Discordians; as well as their connections to Lee Harvey Oswald, Playboy Magazine, the Watergate scandal & Alan Moore.
