The Jew Fears the Samurai (Jack)

Aku represents Satanic Jews. It should be noted that not all Jews are Satanists, but at the same time that the Jews are the chosen race of Satanists through whom they corrupt all the rest of humanity. The opening of the show has Aku telling us:

Long ago in a distant land
I, Aku, the shape shifting Master of Darkness
Unleashed an UNSPEAKABLE EVIL
But a foolish Samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me
Before the final blow was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future
Where my evil is law!
Now the fools seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku!

By itself Aku represents a generic villain bent on world domination through force and deception. However, there is a particular interpretation which would fills in many of the details that Aku is alluding to. It is extremely relevant to what anons have been studying these past few months since a certain thread made fantastic claims about pizza and ping pong.

Aku is a shape shifter. That means he is capable of taking on any form required to accomplish what he wants. To identify him with one single form is to lose his essence, and it makes it impossible to destroy him. So how is Aku to be destroyed, then? Jack's magic sword is the answer.

The unspeakable evil that Aku unleashed is mind control slavery. Mind control slavery is the single most odious evil which plagues mankind, and its evil touches all aspects of society, history, religion, literally everything. The reason it touches everything is because it has been going on for thousands of years, it is an evil which reflexively imposes itself on new generations of children, and the overwhelming majority of mind control victims are not even aware of their background or the purpose for which they might be used.

There is nothing special about Jack's magic sword in the supernatural or paranormal sense. What makes it a magic sword is Jack's unwavering faith that it will let him destroy Aku. Faith in the possibility of destroying Aku and the evil he represents is necessary, for without it one would immediately turn to despair at realizing how complete Aku's control of the world truly is. In the show, we are shown very plainly how thorough Aku's domination of the world is, and it parallels the dominance of earth by Satanism.

The fight between Jack and Aku has taken place in the distant past because it is an archetypal event. For Jack to be thrown into a far flung future is similar to Jesus having to return in the Second Coming because his work was incomplete. This is not due to any particular defect in Jesus, the enemy is simply that vast. Jesus told the Apostles of his Second Coming not necessarily because he was really God or anything like that, but in order to prepare the masses to believe in the person who would be able to complete his work. Hence we find in the fifth season that Jack is ageless – meaning that so long as Aku exists and is evil, a person with the spirit of Jack will also exist who makes it their mission to defeat Aku.

In this evil present, Aku's evil is law. This alludes to the Biblical prophecy that – under Satanism – people will think evil is good and good evil, and that the dark is light and the light is dark. In the show Aku's cities are depicted as festering swamps of scum and degeneracy. In our world, cities truly are degenerate hellholes, and our perception of them as the height of civilization, rather than its antithesis, only reflects the degree to which we as individuals are corrupted in the very way we can see things. This is what it means for good to be called evil, and dark to be called light. The people that help Jack tend to be from rural communities and villages, his allies are often tribes of “primitive” people who are being openly exploited by Aku and his minions.

In the fifth season there are some new developments. First, the story arc involving Jack losing the sword and being confronted by the spirits of his ancestors. Jack hallucinates first all the people from his own village who hoped that he would save them and who are now lost to time, unable to be saved by Jack. This fills him with shame, and the loss of the sword is taken by Jack – and a samurai spirit guide – to mean that his quest is impossible. As explained above, the sword is magic due to Jack's faith in its power, not because of anything intrinsic to the sword. Jack loses the sword after he is made to kill innocents by a deception of Aku, which shatters his belief that he will be able to destroy Aku without having to cause pain to those controlled by him. Thus, Jack loses faith in his mission, symbolized by the sword falling into the pit of despair. Jack will need to learn that the power to defeat Aku was always within him and does not actually require an external object. However, Jack doesn't know this yet – he is actually another mind control slave and doesn't realize it. More on that in a second.

Second, we are introduced to the antagonist-cum-friend Ashi. Ashi is depicted as being trained by a witch of Aku from birth in order to destroy Jack. The birthing ceremony where Ashi and her sisters are born, down to the stone temple for worshiping Aku and the gong, is a not very occluded representation of Satanic rituals. From birth Ashi and her sisters are taught that their sole purpose in life is to serve Aku by destroying the samurai. We are even shown a scene where Ashi looks out at the beautiful landscape, and her witch-mother explains that all beauty in the world is the creation of Aku – a very typical deception of Satan, who takes credit for creation when all he has ever done is corrupt what was already there. Between the Satanic birthing ceremony and this lie, it is clear that Aku is an embodiment of Satan.

The scene where the “daughters” of Aku are given masks is representative of a typical mind control technique. Through trauma-based conditioning a person or some part of that person will be made to believe they are wearing a mask because they have no face of their own. “Stealing” the person's face accomplishes some specific purposes in mind control programming. It instills in that person their inability to communicate to others what has happened and is happening to them, it can make them avoid analyzing their emotions because that would destroy the mask they wear, and it is also very traumatic that someone would steal away your ability to clearly communicate with others. Being made to wear a mask dehumanizes Ashi and her sisters and evokes that, although they are separate people, they exist for the single same purpose – hence they all are given the same face.

Jack is also a mind control victim. This seems surprising at first – if Aku's evil is done through mind control, would that not imply that Jack is either a product of Aku or else evil in his own way? Not necessarily. In all probability they were desperate to rid themselves of Aku, and given they saw how mind control works so effectively, they decided to try and use it against Aku. Jack's belief in the magic power of his sword would have been instilled through the mind control programming. Besides his belief in the magic of his sword, the single greatest indicator that Jack is mind controlled is the samurai spirit guide that shows up in order to persuade Jack to commit ritual suicide because he has failed in his mission. Programming which gets a mind control victim to kill themselves is very standard and is usually employed as a kind of failsafe device. Depending on the individual's programming, different things might set off a suicide program, “failing one's mission” is a standard trigger to implant. This programming will work by manipulating the person's beliefs so that they see suicide as the only option or else the only right thing to do, hence we see that Jack has the vision of samurai spirit guides who show up in order to witness his suicide.

Jack is actually saved by Ashi from following through in his programming, and this will be the thing that allows him to start undoing his own programming. This will, in later episodes, be shown to give Jack the power to defeat Aku. What is crucial to this is that Jack could first break through Ashi's programming by showing her (undeserved) kindness. When Ashi sees how many people consider Jack their friend it gives her experiences with which to compare to her own upbringing, so that she can begin to see how she was lied to. Anons need to take this message to heart. Jack will defeat Aku not by destroying him – after all, Aku is formless, he cannot really be destroyed – but by giving him undeserved kindness, maybe even love and forgiveness. Granted this will be conditional on Aku giving up his power, and Aku might very well choose not to, but that choice must be given if he is to be defeated. The reason giving that choice is so important is because it serves to destroy the bounds of evil that connect Aku to his minions, the ones who accomplish the real work of corrupting the world.

What anons need to understand is that many of Aku's minions are not really evil. Probably most were simply caught up in it and went along because the other option was being tortured, seeing their families and communities raped and murdered by invaders, being left out of work, being humiliated and mocked, and generally being destroyed. Aku rules through evil, which is a double-edged sword. If Jack gives the option to Aku's minions to be forgiven and separate themselves from Aku, many will gladly take it. Many will double down on their evil and will therefore be destroyed, but Jack's offer of forgiveness will immediately divide the entirety of Aku's power structure against itself, because there are so many of Aku's minions that were coerced into it in the first place.

Jack will learn of the power of forgiveness to curb evil through Ashi. In the episode where Jack meditates on the mountain, he finds that he lacks balance. He lacks balance because he is guided only by the goal of destruction – the destruction of evil, a noble goal – but the desire to destroy evil can only purify if it is motivated by the higher goal of creation. By showing kindness to Ashi, he could begin to observe the powerful effect that offering kindness has for an enemy who has only been shown cruelty and pain their whole lives. This is the crucial lesson that Samurai Jack is trying to show to anons. Our desire to destroy evil must be balanced by the desire to create good – without that, we will be unable to ultimately destroy evil, because what prevents evil from occurring and growing in the first place is kindness.

None of this requires some insane kind of mercy. Those who make themselves immediate threats to yourself or your loved ones must be put down. But it is important to remember to offer forgiveness. If you take away the last desperate hope of many Satanists, so many of whom were manipulated and coerced into participating in this evil through desperate circumstances and cruelty first inflicted by Satan, you only give them more reason to increase their fury against you. If they see the possibility of forgiveness for what they have been made to do, as a group they will be divided against themselves simply due to the nature of evil.
