Chapter 27 (Joker 5) (Patreon)

We turn to Chapter 27, a 2007 film about the murder of  John Lennon, in which Mark David Chapman is played by Jared Leto. We read the film as a Satanic ritual, which uses tactics including facts disorientingly blended with lies, fetishizing the traumatized mind of the brainwashing victim, and synchronicity as mind-control trigger. And  all of this connects back to the figures and concepts we're tracking in  our ongoing Joker series.
