...alternative to babylon music media... 2.15.21...



 ...the angst of suburban music meets the urban edges of punk rock speak volumes in the treasure cove of the collective conscience... the realm in which our dreams bend and transcend the confines of memory as restricted to a single entity of being... of being more than your body and mind as vedic teachings have advanced fro millenia... 

...punk rock... new wave... the alternative to the trash on the radio that leaves you with cavities diabetes and hypertension... tap into the hollow of being powerless in a society and culture that prizes violence over all else... that engages first with fists, f you looking ats, .38mm, f-15's, bush-shock-and-awes, obama-drones... the alternative music of america lands us in a landscape of possibility... of hope... for something more... something deeper... nodding our heads to critiques of state violence, e.timor... nuclear weapons... 

...the term manufacturing consent was coined by a political strategist in the early 1920's to identify what needs to be done to ensure that the vast majority are on board with state rational for militarism and policy... chomsky underlines the irony of this term in the irony of what gets passed as democracy... there is nothing democratiec about thousands of prisons across the country that incarcerate people instead of reforming them... i wasn't part of that discussion... where you?... 

...when we hilary and obama decided to regime change libya and assassinate khadafi... an atttempt that their predecessors, like reagan, tried... they succeeded in destabilizing that portion of north africa and placed the country in perpetual civl war since... where you part of this discussion?... how are these politicians representing our interests (=democracy)... 

...the people have spoken... and it's a conundrum... because sometimes the people are rooting for bashing his head in... perhaps a remnant of our roman past... we continue to exist in this colliseum... rooting for immigrants to be expelled... for muslims to be effaced... for racial supremacy to be the name of the game... without being the name of the game... nowhere is this more obvious than in pop culture... look at who gets a million views and likes... look at those who get 3 or 5 likes... 

...before i align with another being... my heart aligns... irrespective of their ethnic/religious b.g... my heart connects with those under the gun... brutalized by abuses of power... whether it is fashionable or not... while the so-called muslim govt of indonesia was committing genocide on e.timor... my heart connected with e.timorese.. as a muslim... in the order of the teachings of the prophet muhammad... i Connect with Real... and Real is more than the nominal and illusive association to any religion... it is in the heart...
