What the fuck happened to my generation? We took no shit and believed NOTHing that came from so called AUTHORITY figures. I am living with two so called punk rockers - one voted for Obama and the other one wants to know when to buy me a MAGA HAT> I don't even vote for president and I'm pigeonholed by these fucks? It ain't all good and it never was.

Pardon me. I had to put this out there. I am so disgusted and it's too late to yell. ha
punk was the first stage is destroying tradition.
to turn the youth against their elders and turn against everything good.
garden gnomes have since moved onto RAP as their primary weapon against the people.
Oh they did a great job selling crack and ruining my neighborhood./ Development schemes for the win.
STFU n-word, before the clash punks were against all the hippie bullshit that boomers started to destroy western civilization.
You fail to see the big picture. DIVIDE DIVIDE en infinitum. That's my point. Everyone thinks their generation was the end all be all of correcting the ills of society but in reality it was more identity politics defined by your shoes and your hair. Fashion. nothing more.
I meant ad infinitum. Silly moi. I get confused when I think like the devil, who speaks LATIN dontcha know. Humilitas. Veritas. Etc.
Schizo. The church speaks latin. Nothing spread Christianity to more groups faster than the fact mass was held in the latin language. The devil doesnt speak latin but Hollywood has rotted your brain to associate the two because their occult depictions bastardize ecclesiastical latin. She would either speak an incomprehensible language, glossolalia, or Enochian
Stultus es
reiteratis lingua mea ano et papa
Uh no. The writers made the devil speak Latin, because it was the language of the realm. Funny how they stopped doing the Latin masses in many loCALES... I was close to an S.J. who became the head of a cathedral that still had daily communicants, most of whom were lawyers that I worked for. They got up very early for the latin mass, and had coffee before getting to the office. I didn't mean to get into Vatican ll shit in this thread but it is actually related. The priest turned around when they stopped doing the mass in Latin. I guess you know that but perhaps the symbolism is lost on you? /js I doubt it. Don't fuck with me.

Blaming the hippie movement on drugs was the beginning of this problem, not shitty art scenes. You can also blame women's sufferage.
>natsoc was based off proto hippies
>volkisch back to the land, nudists, artists like fidus
>Fidus was found and used by hippies in the 60s

hippies did it
much falseness. observe your lack of digits.
why are the boomers here all lowkey punk lol
because fuck you that's why
kek
>punk was the first stage is destroying tradition.
no the first step was convincing boomers to sacrifice the future of their blood to molech for their own personal leisure and entertainment
punk was a reaction to this which was harnessed
it started with elvis retard. Dude basically had sex on stage, making it cool to be rebellious and loose with ones ass...got worse from there.
Correct. Rock n Roll music was always extremely degenerate. It sounds stodgy or whatever but it's true, it was the bastard child of the Sexual Revolution.
God forbid Mary have some fun after the teacher raped her and her husband beat her.
This is what latch key kids from broken homes think life was like in the 50s and 60s. I wonder who taught them about this?
who wrote Frankenstein?
Mary Shelley and that was the year without a summer. All of them stuck in the house together. I'd have written a horror story too.
Anon is spot on here. There was no age division in music before punk. Even when younger people were famously advised not to trust anyone over 30, that all went away when anybody worth shit got up on a stage. We loved anybody who made good music and liked anyone else who felt the same way. Youth culture loses appeal when it is petulant, because in a healthy society most young people like their elders. Of course this hasn't been the case in a long ass time either.
Rape and Pedo culture existed then too homosexual.
Your utopia never existed n-word.
this from the genius who thinks rap started out great until one day someone tried to profit from it
okay grunge guy
I watched a movie today and had to turn it down in the middle of the day because it's disturbing, or so I was told. It was Falling Down. I never saw it before. I did no mass media then so now and again I dip into shit I missed. It was hilarious. Am I wrong?
Falling Down is a blue pilled movie designed to relay the message of "resistance is futile".
Oh I know but I enjoyed it. That was from the era of not doing mass media for me. Resistance isn't futile you just have to choose the hill you are willing to die on.
it's too bad they had to put in the neo nazi scene. it ruined the flick kinda
Yeah it didn't ring true, given the rest of it. He had to be over the top with the zyclon and threatening rape, etc. I'd have cut that, it was all so everyman before then but I guess they needed him to kill a bad guy everyone could agree upon?
Ya that really took a lot out of it. It was waaat too ham fisted
Agreed, after that engineer decided to off himself to leave everything to his wife (child? yeah, right) I though: "okj, this movie is shite"
And when it was my mother who recommended it literally clapping her hands in joy saying "what a man! This is such a great movie" I knew for sure it was boomer propaganda for capable men just to die already.
The engineer could have done all that AND moved to mexico/Europe, wherever grab a teen wife start some religion, do whatever is it he wanted to do because he is a fucking engineer! Good luck his loser ex wife trying to get alimony from him there. This is what the movie should have shown.
Or at least, him using his contacts and position to completely rek her loser leech life for trying to ruin his Clint Eastwood way of speaking (silent yet active, not the gun part) style.
Could have been a smart movie, but instead chose "off yourself despite all your hard work - serve dystopia in doing so"
Really though his first experiences = walking away from the fucking car in a traffic jam, grocer, fast food place, were so universal... and the ex who couldn't quite say why she was afraid... if you lose the Nazi shit it was very universal.
sex pistols was put together by a blasphemous gnomish fashion designer, and "punk" is spiritually analogous to "sodomite"
Yeah yeah but I am talking about those that identified with it. These guys were friends with HR from Bad Brains and they are telling me to turn something down? NO. I call them out here and now.
I could never consider Bad Brains punk.
Bad Brains are n-words
Listen to Mexican punk rock

I was rude before there was an internet. This place is tame compared to the places I went to before there was an AOL. What do you think I have to repent about? AN opinion? It's all I have that is MINE. I am so sick of worrying about what I say. DO you know how many times someone has told me YOU CAN'T SAY THAT ? I just did it. Fuck you pussies AND your ai glown-word shit. Get real or shrivel up and die.

A friend asked me if I'd ever come here many years ago when we used to talk smoking weed in the alley at work. It was a long time ago and I had other proclivities but checked it out. I didn't start posting until 2016 or so because it was so hilarious then. The places I used to go are no longer there. Full of horse porn kind of spam shit. I don't care if this is a honey pot - I like being able to say whatever I want to say. I'll play along.
Don't get me started on fucking dead heads and their bullshit. Beyond cultish. JFC. I was dragged to a dead and co show in portland and I was incensed by the time i left. Fucking john meyer dragging out songs way past their due date. That shit sucked first time around and now they have this idiot dragging it out/ l went to Terrapin whatever the fuck place that is owned by Weir and was at this table of so called VIPs and it was all I could do not to say this shit sucks. I don't care. Bunch of fucking sell out mediocrites. Yes. THat's not a word, but it is now.
a gnomish pedo fashion designer at that (he was involved in a magazine called chicken). fucking punks are one of the biggest conformist groups going.
Yes it’s cringe that they conform while saying they don’t conform, but conforming to a group is actually good. That’s how humans are meant to live.
Being a poser is the best thing ever, I am a wigger, a punk, a southern boy, an Ivy Leaguer, rich, poor, middle class, nerd, goth, jock.
It’s like being a secret agent, I can wear many hats. And I adopt some of the lessons from each group but filter out the trash.
>Being a poser is the best thing ever, I am a wigger, a punk, a southern boy, an Ivy Leaguer, rich, poor, middle class, nerd, goth, jock.

punk is libertarian.
punk is lame and sounds like garbage
the only good thing about it was the anti-corporate and anti-government message i think a lot of the bands had, at least that's the impression i got from it
>mainstream
>anti-corporate and anti-government
God you people are fucking gullible, no wonder the garden gnomes have all the wealth.
>punk is lame and sounds like garbage
If you think any of these albums are lame or sound like garbage, you objectively have bad taste in music
Every one, garbage.
there is actually truth in this.
one garden gnome has written HUNDREDS of the top songs for dozens of artists.

and 100% on them programing pop culture through music.

The hippies fucked society up way before we got to it.
finger pointing muh? remember nixon? made weed a bigger crime so he can go after the blacks and hippies. worked well so far.
Weed sucks. It smells like a skunk and makes me go insane. I wish we could execute every pot smoker.
P.S. I read an article that stated it’s conservatives who are more likely to be resistant to psychoactive drugs. But crave stimulants like sugar, cocaine and meth. Whereas more liberal people prefer psychoactive drugs. But can not tolerate physical stimulants that conservatives prefer.
bot reply.
How can you tell? Seriously. I am trying to narrow it down. Sneed?
gut feelings, perhaps. lamenting about weed while the weight was on nixon, blacks and "worked well" completly missed the mark. also textwall. we're a tight-lipped bunch here.
I get you. I should be sleeping but fuck if I can. I find my own thread more interesting than anything else out there tonight and I like being a part of nothing. Right here, it's here in the underground. that's what I was doing in the bushes. or something like that.
I must say these ca[ptchas are getting reallly stupid.
Punk is dead. Crass was right
It was all bullshit from the get go. I remember heARING about it on some LATE night tv show on CBS... like the Beatles, they had promo on the networks selling it to the sheep/ Fucking British Invasion 3.4 fuck that shit
I met steve ignorant once and his wife.
punk was the boy bands of yesteryear, no different to other bullshit like NKOTB or boyz2men, it was designed to get stupid kids to give garden gnomes money.
What is "punk" other than a synthetic subculture designed in some corporate board room?
kek it was always obvious that they were spoiled brats of the bourgeoisie.
Dave McGowan started to go there before that rapidly spreading cancer took his life. He ended the Laurel Canyon book with shit about Copeland et al. the police. wasn't that cute?
Because we grew up to become the new establishment and we want things like being tolerant and not evicting people for their orientation.
some of it was okay
First album was based.
Based.
I take it 0 is after MI5 cut his brakelines?
Millennial here. I was into old skool punk in the early 00's. At least it was better than n-word music. I've grown past that phase long ago. Punk is dead and it is/was degenerate. Most modern punk bands (or the ones still going after all these years) are just pro blm anti white fag, libshits. They threw og Anarchy out the window completely. Fuckin sellouts.
There couldn't be anything worse than FooFighters and U2. I'd spit at them if I could . so lame I'm done ranting now but man it's bad ya know?
11:49 FOR IT'S bad ya know.
>There couldn't be anything worse than FooFighters and U2.
Kek. Seconded.
When U2 came out and it was being played at the gym I was curious about what all the passionate wailing was about as it was set in the framework of negro gospel music. What great injustice were they howling over? Well Bono forgot his 1930's era dustbowl farmer hat at home so he sent a private jet to fetch it at a cost of $35k or something like that. I mean that's something you can sympathize with, right?
Oh man. Mr. 1% , piece of shit from an apartheid state lecturing other countries on anything? STFU. Like fix Ireland before you go running your mouth about Africa.
Even grossout bands like the Dayglo Abortions write "fuck white people" songs now, there's no escape from it
I know I just doomed this to archive but I feel better. It's in the permanent record now and I love building mine. It beats yelling when the train goes by. And I will dangle a preposition whenever the fuck I want to. take that.
This artist is probably the closest genre of punk I listen to in recent years:
Skip to about a min ahead for the track to start rolling. Good shit imo.
I prefer this, which I consider new. ha. Saw them live.
Punk was about a few British kids getting their dicks wet in the 70s. Apart from that it's never been anything but a marketing scam and delivery vehicle for subversion.
>you can't be punk unless you believe X Y and Z
cultists behaving like the rest of them
fucking idiots with no originality
Punk and the Punk esthetic originated in Stagflation America.
Malcome McLaren just stole it.
Which is very Punk
You have to give him props for that . He once showed up at a fine dining restaurant in New Orleans without a coat and tie and took the ugly tie that they had on hand to go eat there. True story.
Who drew this meme? I used to see almost the exact same thing back in the woods and eventually in my room as a kid
My dad, a tool of the MIC, hated David Bowie which of course made me love him even more. It truly was the British Invasion. Hari Hari all that shit. My sweet lord my ass.
Don’t know if anyone heard about this. Recently a fan sent the singer from The Mars Volta a petition to stop drag shows in school. The singer then went and exposed the guys identity, name and photo of his family to all his social media followers.
That's about right. We are so fucked.
Glad I stopped listening to that fucker's noise a long time ago. Not sure how I feel about so many musicians showing that they are retarded extremist leftists but I'm no longer supporting them when they actively set out to ruin somebody's life.
>inarticulate, misdirected rage and profanity
>petty insults and ad hominems
>typical "rockstar" behaviour from manchildren
Anyone who wants to call themselves conservative needs to boycott not only all rock music but any popular music since anyone involved in those will champion whatever degeneracy is the current in-thing just to keep the paychecks coming in, principles and morals are nothing to them.
Truth, even the vocalist of what used to be the supposedly most dangerous band of the world and wrote "n-words" into a song and regularly called audience members homosexuals is now a masklet leftist who cried on Twitter during the Trump admin especially now that he wants to tour.
Music has always been political in a way, but not like it is now. What's the opposite of enlightenment? Ignorance? Yeah. Something like that.
Everything is extremely political now, it is incredibly tiresome. The only way I can get away from it is to avoid people entirely.
I guess real rebels know better than to post here there or anywhere. I just don't care anymore.
Ah, heres another gold nugget I recalled:
Hits you in the feels
How it started
No.
How it's going
(((Jim Lindberg)))
Wow I was really trying to find the stuff McGowan wrote about copeland et al and it sure is buried. I even scanned a pdf of the whole fucking book aND IT wasn't there. Pardon my random caps but my left pinky isn't working right and I'm getting lazy. You would think you could do without left pinky but no. It's there for a reason.
If you find it, I'd be interested in reading it.
You inspire me. It was in the final pages. Watch this disappear before i get it.

What do you think of Legendary Pink Dots (and side projects)?
I know not of them. Who what?
Edward Kaspel and company. A pretty old avant-garde neoclassical psychedelic band....though it's hard to categorize them.
I will check it out. IS IT like 13th Floor Elevators?
Kind of. A bit more early 80's-tastic.
I took some government acid in 85 or so and decided not to do any music or media period. I worked in a music club so some shit was unavoidable but I really shut down for a while. No regrets really. I just got disgusted with production values in general and felt manipulated by everything. I am still wary of what I listen to because you never know ha MEDS no. No meds. I liked what I just heard, FWIW.
Oh now I am getting a Liquid Sky vibe. Have you seen that one? HILARIOUS movie. Aliens and junkies and professors and nymphos.
Yeah, Liquid Sky was awful...but I did watch it twice.
Yeah me too. At least. The last person I tried to get to watch it got almost violent about it. lol Got any drugs Margaret ?
this movie is awesomeness
Don't fuck with me, my pussy has teeth. lol
one of the best lines of the 80s
Listening. Around that time I was stuck on Fripp and Eno and shit like that. It sounds good.
I saw them live and bought a signed poster.
I don't understand this thing at all
Please don't be waiting for me
A "Punk's" fashion, trends, ideology, all of it is now largely dictated by their facebook feed nowadays. What I mean by that is, it, like other subcultural trends, have become commercialized. "I am unique because I have the limited edition full of hell 2016 patch!" "I have 2000 vinyl records in MY collection!" Its the same shit everywhere. A lot of these trends have also bled into each other. But none of these are truly anti establishment or in any way authentic or different. Its just people who are just as ruled by the consensus as anyone else. They dont go off script. They all have the same blm donation page in their Instagram bio's, the same few permutations of pronouns, pride flag, black power fist in their handles. Easily conditioned herd animals. And also rampant substance abuse problems.
It's gotten really bad. People I know that fancy themselves free thinkers are GONE. I know so many people and I talk to three, other than my roommates. They come to me and call me to say shit they can't say to anyone. It's pathetic. When I am the last vestige of conversation for real people, and I am a thousand miles away, we are in a heap of trouble. It's not enough that rich mother fuckers like Rogan and Elon are saying enough... now they are bad guys? WTF? I never agree with ANYONE about everything, and not because I am a contrarian. I am a fucking writer. there are no rules for words. period.
I hear you. I used to be involved with a lot of these crowds when I was younger. But I saw how faux and contrived it was. Theyve all become commercialized nihilists hurting themselves and others in their own self destructive confusion. You cant have an actual conversation anymore. No "what if...?" No actual interesting conversation or line of thought. They just want to destroy themselves and dramatize their broken lives and experiences into their narcissistic personal mythologies and try to out-virtue one another.
You heard the music, now buy the shirt. Yes.
I am obsessively searching for the stuff I can't find. I want LexisNexis right now but I will not pay.
I never agree with everyone about everything either, which has caused everybody to leave, because the average idiot now wants everybody in their lives to be a total echo chamber. Actually having a conversation where they don't always agree with another person is too threatening to their weak feelings. And everybody loves categories now, I am forced to either be seen as leftist or a cuckservative, not anything else, so people become even angrier when I don't neatly fit into one of those. People have become pathetic.
I wouldn't have anyone in my life that couldn't check me and wasn't a formidable opponent. An echo chamber would be hell. Dynamic tension is key to progress and so much more. That's why I don't do social media other than cat pictures. My cat's are bad ass. For years my one cat was tagged Whitey Bulger and if you looked on his page on FB you saw pictures of my cat. They caught up with me when he came into the news again and POOF all my gangster cat pics were gone. lol It was fun while it lasted. OH MAN just heard navy is grounding all aircraft today? wtf?
They're as cleared for flight as Clott Adams
Guessing like Moda's International Fashion in Dallas?
They got FLURORIDATED. Every year that goes by that you don't fight fluoridation with iodine, you risk becoming a zombie.
Punk was a fashion designed to pick out the posers anyway. Fuck punk, and fuck weak minded fools
What? No.
Punk wasn't a fashion statement, it was a youth culture between like '76-'79 because kids became disconnected from the corporate world when the economy started going to shit. It became a fashion statement in the 80's, which is now New Wave.
In reality, the social backlash was against socialist governments running things into the ground, and Thatcher and Reagan won as a result,
But Hardcore punk still exited in the US, and it was a lot like the old punk scene.
My real punk friends squatted in NY and got a building legit AND that's when they weren't in Berlin hanging with the Missing Foundation people. I said I was old. I still have my teeth.
Real punk was just advanced homelessness. I don't think they ever really intended to "make it big" in the music industry. At least at first.
The majority of successful artists that came out of the punk era moved into Post-punk/new wave.
John Lyndon married some rich old lady who basically funded his madness for decades.
Someone I think it was Eno said the Velvet Underground only sold 10k records but everyone that bought it started a band.
YEAH it was a who'd a thunk it moment for sure.
If their lives were so tough then how could they afford to drink and do drugs in their dive bars every fucking night without having to worry about getting up in the morning to go to work. The economy was shit for me and my friends too...so much so that it seriously curtailed any partying.
One day one of my punk friends and I were walking down the street and someone hit a newspaper machine. He picked it up and we took it back to my aPT. There was about 60 dollars in there. What was hilarious was it was the middle of the day and no one stopped him or asked any questions. Circa 1984. None of them worked. I was a bartender but they all had more money than me. Weed. Panhandling, newspaper machines, no visible means o f support. I actually wrote stories about the newspaper machine guy. He was kind of a legend ... everyone called him Dead Frank. Mohawk. Pere Ubu sort of guy.
The only person I ever saw doing the newspaper box cracking shit was a disgusting filthy drunken chug on Granville Mall in Vancouver. That's a grift that even a 65 IQ native with tertiary syphillis can handle.
He didn't crack it/ someone knocked it off its stand, and it was around the corner from the apt. I do know another guy who pulled an ATM after hurricane Katrina. lol
This has become tiresome. I haven't said all I wanted to say but the weed I have blurs my vision. lol Which is ironic because all I do is read all the time and now I can't. It's some medical grade stuff and damn y'all it ain't my uncle's weed. AND I looked high and low for the McGowan stuff about Copeland and can't find it. Just a bunch of slander about McGowan, of course. Must have struck a nerve with someone fro, m ye olde institute of was it travis stock? Something like that. ha
being mad at punks is like being mad at shit for stinking
grow up homosexual
Yeah but at least I recognize the stench.
>Yeah but at least I recognize the stench.
no you don't
the people you live with are not actually punks
the bollocks are shit
crass was the only real punk band and they declared it dead the same year it was born
sid vicious was based and innocent and you need more culture in your life
You have no idea. I just used the Pistols to have an image... I've got culture oozing from my pores. That scene is a mere blip in my experience. I never bought in, I am just saying that people who once identified with counter culture suck the ass of propagandists now.
>am just saying that people who once identified with counter culture suck the ass of propagandists now.
lol, ok yes, no contest there - what can I say, it's clownworld after all, I don't go to shows anymore for the same reasons
anyway, not here to judge - what are you listening to? do you like metal? for me, that was always the more honest choice
I like to listen to old shit. I like metal. I like Dire Straits, Talking Heads, Pretenders, shit like that when I don't want to have to think about it. When I did weBpages I listened to a lot of Radiohead. I know that isn't punk, that's what I used to relax while I was working. I have seen a lot of live shows in my life. I hung with sound guys in New Orleans for years. One of the best shows I ever saw was Misfits who opened for Gwar. I didn't know about Gwar. What a shock that was!~ I worked in music clubs so I saw shit like Buddy Guy and Jr. Wells and BB King and Taj Majal and Ry Cooder. RL Burnside. One night I took JaMES Hetfield around town because he wanted to get out of the tourist part of town. The only show I am tempted to see in the near future is Steely Dan because they are still tight and touring with Winwood. I probably won't because God knows what the tickets cost. Last big live show I saw was Ian Anderson doing Jethro Tull a musical which was pretty weird. Paid 100 to stand up in the wings for it. I saw the sign getting off the 101 in Guerneville CA and said WHAT? Sonoma County was CRAZY like every night there was something. Oh no I've said too much. I've seen almost everyone I wanted to see, and met many that were like Gods to me. I know it's all a spell but damn it was fun for a while.
My illusions were shattered about Patti Smith for the same shit I am bitching about herein. Another fucking sell out like Neil Young/ what's with that establishment big pharma crap from these so calle3d radicals ?> rock and roll n-word not
“You ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated?” Don’t care Johnny was fucked over by a garden gnome with an irish name and it made him more wary. John lydon is based
Turns out the Copeland clan really did come of age in some of the most volatile CIA operations around the world, ie the music industry, the Middle East etc. If you've ever thought you'd like a different perspective on the music that gripped your teenage years then Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon is definitely the place to start...
Anyone on here still into punk and not bought the propaganda? I live in Philly and still go to shows and party with punks and other types of musicians because it's all I know in terms of socializing and I like them as friends more than geeks/gamers I used to hang with. I always kind of disagreed with a lot of lefty views so I never developed of habit if talking politics with them. Honestly most of them are just repeating shit to fit in, most of them are only concerned with partying. I even know a punk chick who secretly has a bondage shirt with a swastika on it because she's obsessed with early 70's punk stuff, but posts all the pro BLM, pro Ukraine virtue signals lol.
The great rock and roll swindle, indeed. There was fuck all "grass roots" about the punk movement, just more subversion psyops by tptb.
They don't know about tavi stock et al. Don't get me started on Geffen. I know people who worked for him. Strictly business ha. he'll get his one day.
Punk is dead, it couldn’t survive long term.
So tell me, where is counter culture? Where is there an original thought? A new sound? ANYTHING? dead, we are. And not grateful.
It's in you right? It's in who ever bucks authoritarianism. Different skin same you.
I missed this comment Yes you are correct.
The entertainment industry functions as a cultural gatekeeping operation and a financial sink where good people are exploited. Anyone with any sense gets out before they are fucked with financially or psychologically.
Is there a reason why celebs behave like they're under fucking constraint? Well that's because they are.
I know. I have friends in and formerly in and it's slavery for real. Real cut throat shit. And worse. I just wish some of them that are older would shut their fucking mouth and go live on their residuals.
>So tell me, where is counter culture?
real underground stuff doesn't want to invite retards and heavily gatekeeps

Damn. That was a long time ago. I missed all this. I was in Memphis then, unfortunately. Born Jan Paul Beahm, Darby had a troubled childhood. When he was 11 years old, his eldest brother Bobby Lucas died of a heroin overdose at the age of 27, thought to have been murdered by a disgruntled drug dealer who intentionally sold him an unusually potent batch of the drug....
I know ten people off the top of my head that od'd that were close friends of mine. Sometimes I am happy for them, in a way. They couldn't handle this shit. I never did opiates, thank God. First time I was offered any I was told i couldn't drink or I'd throw up. That was in NYC in a club where everyone was nodding off and drinking water. I chose to stick with the scotch and watch.
>punk rockers
cringe fr fr no cap, drop that shit
I feel the same about Perry Ferrel and Rage shilling for the vax?
Oh that was the worst. Rage against what machine you fucking shills? I have friends who knew dude from Foo FIghters that are anti vax vocally. Many things have been said about what actually went down there. Who knows really but that really was the cultural Maginot line. Look at what they did to Clapton for talking about his side effects. Unreal. I am not really a fan but I admire him for speaking up about it. I loved Cream but mostly because of Ginger.
What happened is that Boomers made laws to arrest the best of our generation so they could not compete later on with boomers positions., No excuse however for us after divorce and surviving as a feral in a society gone dyustyopåic, not to do anything. We tore down the Berlin wall when politicians were just on fear mode all the time. Situation is similar - we can do this better now that most of us have our shit together. Zoomers will support us so treat them well. Join politics, become active in your community, stand up against the absurd laws and change them, we can tear down this new wall of imbecility.
We must start from the bottom up however because once Boomers realise they lost the power they will try to trigger M.A.D. Something boomers always fantasised about, and now the pieces are coming together I understand why (and mind you, they might do this justr because they don't want people to say how hypocritical they were as parents and as people):
A friend of mine is running for state senate in our very based state. I have worked for him before when he was a lobbyist, and he's strictly constitution with a history re: cannabis. I have no aspirations but I am all for anyone righteous. I don't believe the president has any real power, but local races are VERY important. He's one of "us" with three teenagers so he has a very vested interest in the future. That's the only thing that inspires people really. If you don't have children you don't give a fuck about the future/ Mine are over thirty, and I thank God every day for that because I would have to have home schooled them now.
So I looked at the futures and it's hell no handbasket. damn. I guess when everyone is poor and SSI is insolvent like the 401ks we may see a bit more bucking??? Nah, probably not. I never thought I'd see the day where I'd get paid to sit on my ass and I guess I was right. HHVFMF Social Insecurity, a concept album.
'Punk rock' was, from its infancy, nothing but another pop-culture surrogate, provided by the 'soft ideology' of the neo-liberal globalist order, to replace true aggression and revolutionary attacks against itself.
Channeling that energy just like the churches and the steeples. ha.
He's really based. I like him more than I did when I was young.
Yeah me too, I guess it's because he was proven to be consistent.
He called a CBC interviewer a "Two-bob cunt" on the radio. Bob is a cock.
lol
Hey anon I have been reading your posts and you seem pretty damn based for an old timer. You have a good night
You as well. I am tired. I took a Benadryl because I live by a forest full of flowering trees and damn just a half knocks me on my ass. We are 99 tomorrow through Wednesday with heat index of 110. fuck. I hate running ac or heat but here I sit. Bon soir, etc.
secrecy buys lies
can you imagine his outrage at disney buying his story? comedy and music are sacred and he's on the money with that commentary
Johnny rotten is pretty based though
pro Trump, pro brexit, called out saville before anyone dared
Calling out Saville is the reason why he vanished from the media for 20 years.
oh that's right he was the first
damn
but he did have the bollocks to
>Calling out Saville is the reason why he vanished from the media for 20 years
Tells a lot about who controls the media.
AND NOW THE END IS NEAR AND SO I FACE MY FINAL CURTAIN HAHAHAHA YOU CUNT IM NOT A QUEER I MADE MY CASEEEE OF WHICH IM CERTAIN IVE LIVED A LIFE THATS FULL AND EACH AND EVERY HIGHWAYY AND MUCH MUCH MORE THEN THIS I DID IT MY WAY BANG BANG BANG BANG
Johnny are you queer> haJust wondering if it might be you.
yeah i'm a zoomer and the people that try to get into punk at my age are vaxxoid antihomosexuals
Punk, as with any subculture based around music, is just a garden gnome psyop to make goyim feel like they are apart of something and to sell said goyim merch.
the clash are better
homosexual
Hum sweaty.... trans IS punk...
Is that you John Joe?
nope
punk got hijacked as a trendy and safe way to play loud music instead of fighting for automony and annihilation of all government
The only good thing about punk was post-punk and new wave lol.
punk is a pointless fashion statement that was made safe by gnomish music industry and globalists. its outlawed in every country and turned into a retarded clothing consumer buyout.
punk was about annihilation of all government, intelligence agencies, independence from the system, freedom from the central contrl of the way the world is headed: 1 world govt

I am not typically a lyric poster or fan but damn if you can't even find Inside Job anywhere on youtube for the last two or three years... While you were sleeping They came and took it all away The lanes and the meadows The places where you used to play It was an inside job By the well-connected Your little protest Summarily rejected It was an inside job Like it always is Chalk it up to business as usual...
wonder why
youtube had a gigantic purge of "dangerous music" a few years back. fucking wild times
I mean he was top 40 and it's a popular song. I was shocked to see that. AJ plays it as bumper music all the time. I wonder if that's whY? I mean it's a good song but it's not that controversial, is it? ha
Ideological control of society has been something slowly but surely happening over the entire planet, syncrhonized at the same exact time. When I was young in the USSR this was the mid 80s so we had no choice but to participate ina ll government projects and activtiies. Every aspect of life was political and you were forced to either adapt ideology or be shunned from social activities and economic activity. This is what they are doing to the entire planet. Everything must conform to the new ideology.
Look at all the major countries:
Germany, USA, Russia, Israel, China, all have insane amount of central control with intelligence services and hyper censorship. This is the plan they want for us all.
LULZ used to be the only place on the net that opposed this, but I've noticed an increasing amount of "people" now supporting large central government authorities, deepstates, etc. By 2030 the world will probably be living under 1 centralizated bureaucracy.
So this is why they're laying the bans now, in every country, around the world at the same time.
Wow. Where are you now?
OH how we burned in the camps... I read Solzhenitsyn in high school ... day in the life and Gulag Archipelago and the requisite Orwell and Rand too... how are people going for this? Even people I went to school with that read the same shit are totalitarian as fuck now. Who stole their brains? Is it as simple as poison in the food and water? I just don't get it.
Subversion works slowly, compounding over the course of peoples entire lives. you're american, the day it all began for you at a noticable level was 9/11. but it started a lot earlier than that. it just became more noticed because they used peak hysteria. but if you look up to the run up to the Patriot Act and other totalitarian measures of control you can see plain as day that was where they were pushing you.
It's music. Always has been. If the music means something to you and evokes the emotions you want then listen. As for some social movement of punk. It was always bullshit that would fall in and eat itself. If you're looking to others to affirm what you think something is... well you missed the point of punk.
soldiers of Islam are loading their guns
They're getting ready
But the Russian tanks are mowing them down
They're getting ready
There's children in Africa with Tommy Guns
Getting ready
While the Islam armies are beckoning on
Getting ready
There's a burning sun
And it sets in the western world
But it rises in the east
And pretty soon
It's gonna burn your temples down
While the heads of state are having their fun
Are they ready?
We're looking at the world through a barrel of a gun
Are we ready?
You stand there beating on your little war drum
Are you ready?
And it won't be long before your time has come
Are you ready?
There's a burning sun

This was not punk. You are an ignorant loser.
oh fuck off
that's your contribution to the conversation?
This board is dead as well so don't be surprised when you get 1 reply "gotchas"
I don't even care. I just needed to rant and figured why not here? I don't usually but I was in a mood all day and I surely don't do twitter. My roommates are both recovering from serious medical shit so I can't fight with them about anything, leaving me to my own devices. Being nice all day is hard for me. I'm kind of a blunt jerk but when you get older you realiZe that's not always ok. Don't want to get all sappy but that's the truth. A TRIPLE BYPASS in the next room, and he's pissing me off. Not a blog, I know but just being real if that is possible. I know it's not popular but life's a piece of shit, etc.
Life is good friend, life is great actually. The system they've built for everyone is designed to make you feel despair, to alienate you, and to slowly subject you to mass propaganda into ideology. in Poland we had to join the Communist scout movement,s inging communist songs, I remember these days. We were just kids. If a kid's parents didn't put them into this program they were shunned, and harassed by police, etc.
My point is that this is what they're doing to us. In 1984 nobody likes to remember the parts where Orwell talked about:
1- weaponization of linguistics. used to subvert all meanings and create 'newspeak' terms (already exists in my opinion: globohomo, racist, neo-nazi, micro aggression, etc)
weaponization of linguistics is designed to trap you into newspeak, which is consistently rooted in ideology and therefore get you to basically be a walking propaganda loudspeaker at every moment of your life.
2- turn the kids on their parents
people forget this part of the book and dismiss it, but it doesnt have to do with just kids. its about ideologicalization of all society at all forms. its already happening. you have roomates with helath issues more concerned with bullshit ideology politics than about their own health. thats not normal ,and was never the normal for early, free living man.
Chin up, they WANT YOU to feel hopeless, despair, trapped, etc. its how the system is designed to control you. take it from me who was nearly killed by communist authoritites in 1996 when i was 15 years old
I have a friend who fled Romania a long time ago. He's so bad ass and sees what's happening. He will survive no matter what. He left with one bag and his wife, who is a monster. lol
>he left with one bag
sounds like an actual chad
>his wife, who is a monster
kek. I hear a lot of american guys on this board talk about how they want a slavic wife, or some wife from east/central europe. you have to be a man made of steel to handle our women hahahaha
but romanians are genuinely good people, very intelligent and i'm not surprised he is one of your more level headed friends.
for real. butcher, beekeeper, baker, he does it all
and was special forces too ... he likes to tell people Merry Christmas instead of saying no. He's hilarious I've researched a lot about Romania since I met him and damn, who knew? T
>We took no shit and believed NOTHing that came from so called AUTHORITY figures
But believed in made up fashion fad controlled and pushed by the same media which own mickey mouse?
Not me. I wore the same sweater and jeans every fucking day and fuck Disney and every aspect of their empire. I was on to them by the time I wAS 10 in the early 7os. Why do you presume anything about me? I already said I am old. I am ov er educated and have never been a slave to fashion. I bought my children their expensive shoes because I knew they had to have them to survive in their fucked up culture... imagine being the only one without Doc Martins when you were young. I didn't prohibit anything because I know how that backfires but I certainly didn't push Disney or Nick shit. My children grew up on Built to Spill and Blue Oyster Cult and Pink Floyd while their friends were doing Nickleback and shit. They are now adults with refined tastes of their own, and now and then I listen to something they tell me about but SADLY both of them are going retro because there is nothing worth listening to out there right now.They don't do rap. I think the last "modern" shit I got from them was Daft Punk, and I did like it but it was derivative. Good derivative but not original.
Damn, you done well by yourself and your children, then.
You're not Ms. Demone, are you?
Qui? Qui est la personne? Dites moi.

I'm defaulting to some old knowings but,
"who's that? Not me,"
Just some goth singer I liked from Cali. Too bad she's so associated with a band that you and I both know to be kinda predictive programming oriented(Christian Death, cali "goth" I guess)
Actually I ripped them from a dialogue that sticks with me from a French class. I took six years, but nothing stays with me like the first two.
Claude est la?
No il est au zoo.
Avec Edith ou avec Claudine?
I think everyone my age in America had that same book for French. Six years later we were reading and writing but meh I stopped bothering. I do love the language though. I wanted to learn Russian too but that was a no go from my dad when he was paying my way. BUT truly my favorite short story writer is Borges and I can't imagine how great he is in his own language. I feel robbed depending on translations and the older you get the harder it is to learn another language. If you are young and reading this, get another language. Any one. Except German. Fuck German. ha
Call'em Corpie cocksuckers, who shill for free because some cocksucker in a suit sold'em a bill of lading with that political stance.
Oh shit it's late and the futures are fucked. Tomorrow will be a blood bath in the markets = not to change the subject but just realized how late/early it was. Something will happen today to take attention away from this shit for sure. who can it be now?
Why are 2000s kids so obsessed with Japanese culture? Even more so than 90s or 80s kids?
FUcking I don't know. Anime stole my son's talent. He is an amazing artist with classical training and could copy Leonardo and shit ... made his art teachers cry... and then all of the sudden he was obsessed with that crap. He's very smart and much older but I really feel like he got thrown off course with that shit. Everything looked like fucking Speed Racer to me. I just don't get it.
Fucking LOL you are a shit father.
Even stranger, my best friends mom who has since passed got hooked on Korean soaps... wtf She was brilliant and well read and totally hooked
>>why japanese cultu...

I think these little guys had something to do with late 90s/00s kids loving Nippon.

Punk was sped-up garage rock with a nihilistic message.
Sex Pistols was just a marketing stunt done by a gnomish guy who wanted to promote his gf's clothesline.
It's post-punk that actually created a lot more interesting music. Punk itself is poor in good music. It's mostly about attitude, but that attitude was ironically the result of a gnomish cultural stunt.
>fight the powah goyim
>don't forget to buy the album and the outfit to show it to them how you fight authority
Hot Topic! *bongo beat,* the one-stop poser shop!
That was Bongo in New Orleans. ha
There were some assholes who dressed like the guys from Clockwork Orange in the quarter then. Such bullshit. Even had the canes and crap. So lame.
Punk was promoted by (((record companies))) for the same reason they promoted gangster rap and other degenerate music. Why would they do something like that? You think it was all organic, bottom up movement? You need to explain why (((they))) in the record business and media promoting it then.
>but we questioned authority!
A certain amount of dissent, even violence is allowed by those in power if it serves their aims. The most recent example is the astroturfed BLM. Lots of naive teenagers will grow up thinking they were part of a 'movement' and stuck it to 'the system' but what did any of these things really achieve? In decades to come, they'll look back at the protesting and rioting with rose tinted glasses, genuinely believing that what they did was an organic, grass roots thing that was against 'institutional racism'.
The real movements that can't be co-opted get shut the fuck down pretty fucking quickly and are dealt with very harshly. That's how you it's legitimate.
I knew as a child it wasn't organic. My uncle, a few years older, told me I wouldn't know about the Osmonds and the Jackson 5 if it weren't for the radio stations playing them all the time, and the magazines, owned by the same people, promoting them. It's always been like that. Growing up and watching real musicians never make it out of town no matter their talent reinforced all of that. I can't think of a single musician since the 70s that wasn't thrust upon the public, even those that seemed INDY which was its own industry. My friend "programmed:" college radio for YEARS. He was the decider. Yes he had good taste but never think that shit was INDY on any level. It was just alt whatever which is its own genre now. We now conclude our programming for the night. Sun's rising. Or some facsimile thereof.
Punk is fake and gay, metal is the real shit.
Punk is a spirit, not an aesthetic nor a product.
Being against the established order can only be good if said order is fundamentally evil.
"Resist much, obey little."
What I loved about OHNO CIRCA 2001 was that it's all 1and O, with slashes. Like O two lls, etc. you get it. I don't know the artist, but I have mad respect for them, especially because they used the usps stickers to do this all over the place. And well HABITZ is loaded as fuck too. Good work, whoever you were.
They said that we were trash
Well the name is Crass, not Clash
They can stuff their punk credentials
Cause it's them that take the cash
They won't change nothing with their fashionable talk
All their RAR badges and their protest walk
Thousands of white men standing in a park
Objecting to racism's like a candle in the dark
Black man's got his problems and his way to deal with it
So don't fool yourself you're helping with your white liberal shit
If you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand
You'd see we're all just n-words to the rulers of this land
Punk was once an answer to years of crap
A way of saying no where we'd always said yep
But the moment we saw a way to be free
They invented a dividing line, street credibility
The qualifying factors are politics and class
Left wing macho street fighters willing to kick arse
They said because of racism they'd come out on the street
It was just a form of fascism for the socialist elite
Bigotry and blindness, a marxist con
Another clever trick to keep us all in line
Neat little labels to keep us all apart
To keep us all divided when the troubles start
Pogo on a nazi, spit upon a garden gnome
Vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new
Left wing violence, right wing violence, all seems much the same
Bully boys out fighting, it's just the same old game
Boring fucking politics that'll get us all shot
Left wing, right wing, you can stuff the lot
Keep your petty prejudice, I don't see the point
ANARCHY AND FREEDOM IS WHAT I WANT
Singing one day “You’re a junkie runnin’ dry”
Now you’re on mtv, I can see it was just a lie.
Yes that's right, punk is dead
It's just another cheap product for the consumers' head
Bubblegum rock on plastic transistors
Schoolboy sedition backed by big-time promoters
CBS promote the Clash
Ain't for revolution, it's just for cash
Punk became a fashion just like hippy used to be
Ain't got a thing to do with you or me
Movements are systems and systems kill
Movements are expressions of the public will
Punk became a movement cos we all felt lost
Leaders sold out and now we all pay the cost
Punk narcissism was a social napalm
Steve Jones started doing real harm
Preaching revolution, anarchy and change
Sucked from the system that had given him his name
Well I'm tired of staring through shit-stained glass
Tired of staring up a superstar's arse
I've got an arse and crap and a name
I'm just waiting for my fifteen minutes fame
Steven Jones, you're napalm
If you're so pretty vacant, why do you smarm?
Patti Smith, you're napalm, you write with your hand
But it's Rimbaud's arm
And me, yes, I, do I want to burn?
Is there something I can learn?
Do I need a business man to promote my angle
Can I resist the carrots that fame and fortune dangle
I see the velvet zippies in their bondage gear
The social elite with safety pins in their ear
I watch and understand that it don't mean a thing
The scorpions might attack, but the systems stole the sting
Punk is dead
>Patti Smith, you're napalm, you write with your hand
>But it's Rimbaud's arm
She has failed and become a tool. I am very disappointed.
Penny Rimbaud is the greatest poet of his generation.
Or do the lyrics refer to Arthur Rimbaud - the french poet? Patty Smith probably loves that gay libertine shit.
Punk is right wing
punk is libertarian.
Punk is capitalist.
He's wearing that t-shirt for the same reason his mate used to wear the swastika - attention. He never had anything to say.
he crashed the queen's birthday to tell her "fuck you"
his mate wore a swastika because you were not supposed to. it's the counter-culture and that is why he did it.
No they wore that shit to get attention and to discredit the actually dissident ideas. It is a trick the system plays. co-opt the most vapid yet popular side of a movement. push the aesthetics on TV but make sure none of those pesky ideas get out. Turn an angry social movement into a neutered fashion trend. What else did the sex pistols achieve? All of the famous punks are vapid losers and druggies that would do anything for a $20k cheque. Oh wow he told the queen to fuck off. Wow. What was at stake? What was gained? the country life butter shills are here boys.
if you look for a leader in a bard you will fail for sure.
Well then from where are we supposed to get moments of deep philosophical insight if not from art? These social movements in music are co-opted as fashion trends and then sold back to the people as a means of control. The only music that is pushed by the system is music that is no threat to the system. Everybody's heard of the sex pistols. What revolutionary ideas do you associate with them?
I'm more a grunge guy but I listened to all the punk greats. "Do whatever the fuck you want to do and fuck any authority that tells you otherwise." is punk.
I pirated all my music and I don't buy much.
I suppose it has different meanings for different classes.
Oh you're a "grunge guy" Huh? What does that mean? is that a statement about your character or merely your music preferences?
yes
punk is rough, angry, and hateful.
grunge is smooth, angry, and vindictive.
punk is a punch in the face, grunge is a bullet from 300 yards.
I highly recommend mythology for a start. I worked at a university with this fabulous horrible painting no one wanted in my office. It was a Sisyphus/Prometheus amalgam, with an eagle eating the liver while the man was pushing the rock up the hill. Everyone hated that painting, but I thought it was hilarious and explained it to anyone who was smart enough to notice it. In short, Zeus was an asshole. Kafka had a great take on it but I am too lazy to find it. IF ANYONE gave a shit I would but I can read a room.
Camus' take on the myth was to just imagine Sisyphus with a smile on his face.
>Camus uses the Greek legend of Sisyphus, who is condemned by the gods for eternity to repeatedly roll a boulder up a hill only to have it roll down again once he got it to the top, as a metaphor for the individual’s persistent struggle against the essential absurdity of life. According to Camus, the first step an individual must take is to accept the fact of this absurdity. If, as for Sisyphus, suicide is not a possible response, the only alternative is to rebel by rejoicing in the act of rolling the boulder up the hill. Camus further argues that with the joyful acceptance of the struggle against defeat, the individual gains definition and identity."
I love Camus. I had a wonderful french on the left english on the right version of the stranger. It was so perfect. The plague was a real trip and the question it left me with was WHY didn't the doctor get it? Pardon my no caps but pinky is fucked up. I loved reading Camus in French and English, but I surely get why French is superior for literary purposes. It was really cool to have a page per page translation to reacquaint me with what I already knew.
Camus saved my life and my mind.
The doctor helps plague victims because he is a doctor. not for any moral / ethical or philosophical reasons. He is just a practical man doing what needs to be done. He knows that he cannot win against death but he continues anyway - embracing the absurdity. he is essentially a self insert for Camus' absurdist philosophy at its most high minded. If you know Camus then you will know why he doesn't kill himself.
BUT it's never mentioned. His fear. His avoidance. Techniques. I read it twice with that in mind. If you can give me an example of him having any question about it do tell. It may have been lost in the translation.
the plague is not just a plague. Its a literary device. It represents an individual's inability to affect their own destiny or their impotence in the face of eternity. I'm pretty sure in the novel the doctor tells everyone to wear surgical masks and to not leave their homes for two years except to protest with BLM or gays.
Of course I know it's A device, i am a writer and everything is a device. The elephant in the room is his lack of concern for hid own well being. Thst is another device for deep thinkers.
> for hid own well being. Thst is
for a writer you sure can't type. What choice does he have? He can't leave. He is a doctor - So he gets on with it. What is your theory?
Oh fuck off. THat's a typo. I haven't slept in 36 hours, taking care of others and smoking weed to get by. But sure. Your point? My theory? It was a given that the doctor wasn't getting it. Period. He had no worries. I see in the distance fucking monsters with hoods on poisoning the food/ and the doctor knowing it was depopulation. Just kidding/
No there is nowhere in the novel where he has concern for himself or others. That was why I read it twice. He is detached. As if immune./ If I am wrong show me but I looked for that. Oh and fuck the captcha shit. Why do I have to keep doing them when you hAVE my ID /
je t'aime for reminding me
Punk is much like doomer culture. You know something is fucked about society and it makes you mad and sad.
Yeah I'm a product of your systm and
my soul is soiled and my heart's impure.
my mind is a disease and there is no cure.
we are all just captive animals. we're forced to live mechanically
like all the tools we've learned to use with hands that we've so long abused
the priviledge of having. all we're good for's wrecking havoc.
we embrace our ignorance so we don't have to know the pain that we inflict
without a thought. just a flick of the wrist.
if we're created by a god, then your god must be an idiot.
they ignore the words that come from our lips
when they're coupled with violence.
we're kept docile and imprisoned with no chance of a release.
we don't get a damn thing when we're begging them please.
they measure out the cost but they don't think of our pain
so we lash out through impulses we try so hard to contain.
we thrash out and we seal our fates when all we have is our frustration.
we act out and damn ourselves when all we have to give is hatred.
stand in line and give no lip cause your freedom is just a priviledge
that you have been given just as lot as you embrace the system.
hide your eyes, keep yourself hidden. you're disgusting. you're afflicted.
stay hopelessly disconnected. pray away every erection.
there is no escape so there's no point in even trying.
i can tell you the apocalypse is gonna be D.I.Y.
and i can tell you truly, i've always been looking forward
to the end of our existance since the day that i was born.
we've been praying for the end of days since our first breath.
all we need's a little time to end the fucking world ourselves.
my soul is soiled and my heart's impure.
my mind is a disease and there is no cure.

The probelem with pink is it can be defeatist. Also the getup that some old punks wore is a great way to make normal people hate u and end up homeless.
What about skin heads? I remember a long time ago on here anons would say the skinheads were originally meant to destroy the image of nazis further.
>skinheads were originally meant to destroy the image of nazis further.
Probably. The new 'pistols' drama is a decent watch if you watch it through the lense "garden gnomes do garden gnome stuff to destroy functioning society."
I think punk is so far removed from what the solution is, and that is the problem. Pink wants to destroy society and bring on an Atlantean world of spiritually intelligent people. But when your method of doing that is to act like a crusty animal, you bring the world further toward 3D than 5d. You don’t make an awakening by dressing like a degen.
I believe that is what the new right is about, people not needing to be enslaved to their jobs and for the goals of society to be growth in a way that is humanitarian and also in line with nature. The fuhrer decides what are acceptable goals and things to build and does so with love for the people, not profit or control.

What an amazingly simple and beautiful idea. For the glory of man kind may it manifest in your time anon.
The 20s is probably when the cultural shift/subversion began. Weimar Berlin is a strong example but also the artists and intellectuals of NYC, in Greenwich too. The Communists back then were intrigued by the black man, glorifying their art and writing because it was against the white man, the conservative, the traditional Christian good. Claude McKay in the early 20s for starters, leading the "Harlem Renaissance" even visited Soviet Russia.
>PUNK was BULLSHIT - a Fashion statement
No. Punk was a well crafted gnomish trick to harness the anger of White working class and redirect that energy to creating the shit reality we exist in now.
How did the white working class benefit from the punk movement?
Spoilers, it did not.
Damn y'all I am no tease
Franz Kafka wrote a short piece titled "Prometheus," outlining what he saw as his perspective on four aspects of this myth:
According to the first, he was clamped to a rock in the Caucasus for betraying the secrets of the gods to men, and the gods sent eagles to feed on his liver, which was perpetually renewed.
According to the second, Prometheus, goaded by the pain of the tearing beaks, pressed himself deeper and deeper into the rock until he became one with it.
According to the third, his treachery was forgotten in the course of thousands of years, forgotten by the gods, the eagles, forgotten by himself.
According to the fourth, everyone grew weary of the meaningless affair. The gods grew weary, the eagles grew weary, the wound closed wearily.
There remains the inexplicable mass of rock. The legend tried to explain the inexplicable. As it came out of a substratum of truth it had in turn to end in the inexplicable.[90]
gods sent eagles to feed on his liver, which was perpetually renewed.
We should all be so lucky.
it was invented by a "jude" to try and stir shit
I am a wigger, a punk, a southern boy, an Ivy Leaguer, rich, poor, middle class, nerd, goth, jock.
It’s like being a secret agent, I can wear many hats. And I adopt some of the lessons from each group but filter out the trash.
Well I am a child, only, of A Bohemian and a Black Irish guy born on an Air Force Base in TX who lived in Montana, Ohio, PA, MO, TN, LA and more. I prefer cowboy hats, myself, I never tried to fit in to anything. If I talk to people in the south, I sound like them. I can't fake it, I can't help it. I can talk trash too but that's not about an accent. More about grammar, which I purposefully fuck up to communicate when in such environments.
Those is authority didn’t like the anti authority message of Punk. So they gave us Rap with messages about money and ho’s and metal rock hair bands with messages about sex, drugs and non stop partying
rap wasn't always like that.
things tend to move toward money and become garbage.
>ROW ROW FIGHT DA POWA
the POWA being wypipo and FIGHT being replacing wypipo to be no.1 gnomish slaves
all those Black Panther bullshittery rappers in 80s were directly financed by garden gnomes to promote hating white people

Punk was a gnomish psyop designed to corrupt and ruin rock music, which had become an increasingly artful expression of white (and occasionally black) joy and imagination. This corruption was rejected and hijacked by post-punk in its many forms, which was later defeated by a more sophisticated attack in which the punk ethic was injected into radio friendly metal. Before we could recover from this, media companies pushed a resurgence of R&B which was similarly defiled by the worst sort of hip hop conventions. Anyone who calls themselves punk in the face of this genocidal cultural sabotage is a fool and an enemy.
I will note that the executives who steered rock music through its best days were also gnomish, as were key people in the emergence of post-punk in the US. I knew some of these people, and they were not interested in pushing agendas. They cared about the music they were involved with. But that was a long ass time ago.
n-word
imagine attributing every work to the garden gnomes and thinking whites are still superior.
you're as delusional as the left.
It sure is fun watching you squabble.
neither is a threat to the libertarian.
