There are only a few, half-relevant paintings in the video, so don't fear the visual. But the retelling of this dismantling of a human being, is more disturbing than I can hardly bear. It echoes the crucifixion of Christ in more ways than one -- and, I suspect, not by happenstance.
So don't listen to the whole thing, but only enough to get fully clear as to the true nature and "soul" of government and "Evil by Proxy": which only reveals itself fully when it is really threatened.
The public dismantling of a human soul happened August 23, 1305. The "government" which did it is still in power. That, alone, should disturb us. -Fiz
Intro text:
"You’ve heard the legend. You’ve seen the films. But the real execution of William Wallace—the man who defied the English crown—was not heroic, not quick, and certainly not clean. It was a calculated spectacle of agony designed to destroy more than a man. It was meant to annihilate a symbol.
In this video, we reveal the full, unflinching horror of Wallace’s final hours: from betrayal and capture to the most infamous execution in British history. Hanged, drawn, and quartered—not just as punishment, but as a message burned into the national psyche.
Step beyond the myths and patriotic gloss. Discover the chilling ritual of medieval execution in its rawest form—and why Wallace’s death still echoes through history as a warning, and a cry for freedom.
Why his death changed rebellion forever
