about what?
My main concern is consolidating fascism. Trump is just a decrepit buffoon facade for Russell Vought and Project 2025, but the lessons of a narcissist in decay is interesting to see on full display. And the confirmation it brings of the millions who idolize him is the dose of reality we probably need. The Democratic Party and limiting duopoly mindset is an excuse for cynicism and voluntary sacrifice of people’s own agency. We need a strategy.
art music is the real soul’s salvation
Nothing else can take us to where we need to go better than music does. For many, this involves several layers of psychological, emotional and cultural decolonization as well. Just as people can be illiterate and unable to think rationally separately from their emotional state, the commodification culture has stolen music from the harmonious primal impulse that connects us to Mother Earth and the Universal powers and structured consciousness too narrowly and predictably to suit profiteering objectives. Music for money and entertainment or music for elevation of spirit and reclaiming agency? That is the question. Which side are you on?
Politics. Music. It’s all the same thing. That what this is about.
