You exude yellow
Ha ha ha
You dug your own grave you stupid motherfucker
You dug it
Beetlejuice didn't
You dug a grave
You stupid--
You think you're evil
But you're not
You never knew
What it means
You can't see past any wrong ideas
Hahaha He he he he.
You're not evil
But you are
Whitechapel
Drink, drink! Celebrate!

My ex classmates
Are already dead
My ex classmates
Sometimes run through my head
My ex classmates
They're often dead
For the cause
For which we fought
The culture of nihilism
That made us willing to destroy ourselves
They had the Beatles vs. the Rolling Stones
You had Backstreet Boys vs. Nsync
How's the weather down there? Hot enough?
Your laptop and your selfies remain a memorial
To a mindset of total narcissim
No one can avoid the Reaper
You thought life was a movie and a storybook
You thought you were on a unique and noteworthy journey
Ha ha ha he he he
Did your eyes finally open
When they closed forever?
I remember jealousy
It used to make my stomach burn like bottom shelf liquor
I tried so hard to intellectualize it away
Still it kept creeping back
Then the big day came and I realized my mean streak
I realized a history of random violence was my heritage
A lot of people believed in your shit and I can say
To this day
They can't do fuck all because of you.
I dump Steel Reserve on you
I dropped a backpack on his stomach to welcome him
To another bright beautiful morn
Why don't you tell him on your phone?
Eye muscle was bright
In the light, of the screen is bright
I never told you this babe
I was going to put a beating out on him.
One hundred and fifty dollars was it.
You wouldn't tell me where he lived
She wouldn't
And she wouldn't
His sister did
Months had gone by
Do you remember it was winter?
Remember the ski mask that we joked about
I'll help you remember something new
Check it out
I learned he went from Hollywood onto Elm on a bike
You knew that he didn't drive though
That was the funniest part
Throwing all of his shit into the wet grass
And you driving him home
Well I found out
I had one last little detail to tie up until I felt satisfied
Heavy coat, mask, walking past beautiful hedges
It's funny you know because
When my teeth and claws were still dull
I learned you could place a piece of pipe
In what looked like a rolled up, rubber banded newspaper
The bike goes by
I stick the pipe into the spokes
He flips and lands on the sidwalk under Elm
I keep walking
He said and did nothing
Good choice
He put a cigarette out in someone's eye
Someone told me they weren't sure if he killed the man
The one that approached him in the bar bathroom
He choked him unconscious and left
He never came home
He lived with a black girlfriend above a bar downtown
He was a Southern racist
He stole from the pathetic savings of a piggy bank
When he would come home
He used to let his tenants pay their rent with sex
He never cared about his children
To him money was everything
Possessions meant everything
Work was everything
He drove his wife to kill herself
He wasn't like the other one
He always provided the money
The rest of it he could care fuck all about
He threw his own kids onto the street
He tried to sell one of them a house for
25% more than what he took as an offer for it
He sold LSD in the early 1980s
He got a pubic lice infection after a Rolling Stones concert
He was dating another woman when he met my mom
He did cocaine until the early 1990s
He intimidated the people who crossed him
He never dealt with his problems
So what am I?
That's the genealogy
That's the family tree from which
I am a falling leaf
"A comprador class is one that cooperates in turning its own country into a client state for foreign interests. A client state is one that is open to investments on terms that are decidedly favorable to the foreign investors. In a client state, corporate investors enjoy direct subsidies and land grants, access to raw materials and cheap labor, light or nonexistent taxes, few effective labor unions, no minimum wage or child labor or occupational safety laws, and no consumer or environmental protections to speak of. The protective laws that do exist go largely unenforced. ... The comprador class is well recompensed for its cooperation. Its leaders enjoy opportunities to line their pockets with the foreign aid sent by the U.S. government. Stability is assured with the establishment of security forces, armed and trained by the United States in the latest technologies of terror and repression."
I love your mind
I love that you lack self-consciousness
I love that this world hasn't touched you
I love how you dance
I love how you draw with me
Above everything, there is one thing:
I love you. Unconditionally.
I don't say that lightly. Always. Forever.
I never knew this kind of bond existed.
My friends don't add up to one hand
And now they can't get off the needle again
I dragged some of them to hell
Trust no one
Realize the life of darkness is what you chose
SLUMPED OVER

Reuters, BBC, and Bellingcat participated in covert UK Foreign Office-funded programs to "weaken Russia," leaked docs reveal - The Grayzone
New leaked documents show Reuters’ and the BBC’s involvement in covert UK FCO programs to effect “attitudinal change” and “weaken the Russia
This older piece from The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal outlines just one example of how the UK has used mainstream media outlets to discord and division in Russia, well beyond anything Russia has ever done in the West.
Part of this effort was undertaken by shadowy division of the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office called Counter Disinformation & Media Development or CDMD.
The purpose of this UK Govt organization was to manipulate Russian journalists into essentially doing the propaganda work of the UK and US inside Russia and its sphere of influence using mainstream media outlets like Reuters, the BBC and Bellingcat.
For years now, we have had countless articles and news segments about supposed Russian influence campaigns to "sow disunity and discord" in the West.
But the reality, as is always the case when discussing the Western Imperialist Powers, is just the opposite, with Western nations like Germany, France and the UK undertaking massive influence campaigns in Russia along with its neighbors and allies like Belarus in 2020.
And the effects of such efforts are continued to be felt for years to come and continues to this day.
Of course this is way beyond anything Russia has done with regards to propaganda efforts in the West, despite the MSM claiming otherwise.
And none of this is anything new! These kinds of operations by the Western Imperialist Powers have been going on since before the fall of the Soviet Union.
As I've mentioned before on my blog, MASSIVE efforts were undertaken during the height of the Cold War to propagate anti-Russian and anti-Communist propaganda inside the Soviet Republics themselves, well beyond anything the Soviet Union ever even thought of attempting against the Capitalist West.
News organizations like Reuters propagandized and trained Russian and Soviet Journalists who were sent back to their home countries to manipulate the public among the Soviet Republics, sowing some of the seeds of discord that contributed to the eventual fall of the USSR.
Reuters, the BBC, and Belingcat are NOT news organizations. They are nothing more than propaganda outlets shilling for Empire, and have been for decades.
But I know how it is. Americans and Westerners generally are so manipulated by these kind of Psyops, that they've largely lost all ability to recognize propaganda or to research and think independently. I'll get countless snarky comments about OH! Red Fascism! Putin is a Nazi! Or whatever garbage these people regurgitate to get the approval of their peers. As though criticizing Western hegemony means you approve of Putin.
And ten years from now, when this proxy-war has lost favor with the propagandists and all kinds of evil shit the US, UK and its allies did is revealed in mainstream publications, then suddenly Americans and Westerners will pretend they were against the proxy war the whole time. Its Iraq all over again.
We who survived the plague
We have nothing
We who survived the plague
We have nothing
We who survived the plague
We have nothing
We who survived the plague
We have nothing
Oh we have labored
We have toiled
Yes we cleared this land
That we farm
And now the nation
Whom we've fed
Looks upon us with scorn
And now the forest
The mighty forest
Shall return to conquer
Oh we are a mirror
A distant mirror
When you look at us you will see
All your dreams
Crushed upon the sea
Oh we have labored
We have toiled
Webuilt our cities of stone
We have died
We did not fail
We built our cities of stone
Yes we built our prisons
With their bars
We built the churches and spires
We built our palaces
And government houses
We built slums where we starve
Oh we are a mirror
A distant mirror
When you look at us you will see
All your dreams
Crushed upon the sea
Leave the city
You know in your fragile minds
The grandiosity of location integrates into identity
Don't go to find yourself in NYC
Life is a choose your own ruin pop up book the 1% wrote
Don't feel you finally have a community in San Fran
Do not believe you are hard in Detroit
Do not believe you are in Chiraq in Chicago
Do not be a bouncer or waitress in Hollywood
Don't shout out Hotlanta
Do not find your fortune in Dallas
Do not fuck your way up the ladder in DC
Don't retire to Pensacola
Don't burn your cross in Birmingham
Don't buy your land to fish and hunt in Duluth
Do not embrace the decadence of Las Vegas
Do not become a tech expert in San Jose
Don't look for a cottage in Bangor. Bob Ross will show you anyway?
Leave the city
Leave your selfies behind
Exit the Roman shell.
Eurocentric, the message of a Eurobore
I didn't make it that way
I didn't make It found civilization
It's like eating all the apples that fall from the tree
Then poisoning its roots
Cursing it
Goddamn them for air conditioning
Goddamn them for spaceflight
And Hollywood
And Dollywood
And Atlantic Records
Goddamn them for everything that stimulated my mind
It wasn't fair
Diversity has nothing to do with talent
I squint in the sun
I can't get my blue eyes checked
I can't get my green eyes checked
And in the mail is a check
From the CP...
A retarded head spin
Pine cones are falling
Szia? I set you down
Minden ok! You are a baby
My eyes
It's too bright
Sure you wouldn't do time with papa
Sure you wouldn't do time with ma
Sure you
You listen to "Brown Eyed Girl"
We are working on an art
Project
Sure you wouldn't do time with papa
Sure you wouldn't do time with ma
But what about old Uncle D-D?
Your great uncle, moonshine hills
Are far away, way down South
But this is going to go away
Where butterflies go, for a little while
Ey, ukhnyem "they say!"
Smashing an oar on my Volga
My Danube
A river is any river is a River
Grapes used to grow along this one you know that'll be important
Razovyom my kudryavu.
Yeshcho razik, yeshcho da raz!
Ai da da da da
AI dada da da
Remember we always have
Suffered to that song
Clap your hands and sing along
Something thrusts through the ground
And I'm falling
I realize I'm in a time track
I am restimulating false memories
I think I know more than I could
More than anyone could
Did you ever know more than you should?
Ai da da da da
AI dada da da
Those are the sufferings of a broken ( )
Go into the arms of God
There's nothing but mud down here
*pause, breath sound*
"Breath is an unusually brief work. Its length can be estimated from Beckett's detailed instructions in the script to be about 35 seconds. It consists of the sound of “an instant of recorded vagitus” (a birth-cry), followed by an amplified recording of somebody slowly inhaling and exhaling accompanied by an increase and decrease in the intensity of the light. There is then a second identical cry, and the piece ends. No people are seen on stage, but Beckett states that it should be "littered with miscellaneous rubbish." He did specify however that there were to be “no verticals”, the rubbish was to be “all scattered and lying.”
This is art in the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. Completely without craftsmanship. Hype sells. It is nonsense.
