I've slowly come to realize that "normies ruin everything" should be up there with gravity, entropy, death, and taxes.
It's been really sad to see so many punk rockers back blatant state/corporate propaganda. There was so much good bush-era anti-war sentiment[1] that suddenly disappeared once the next guy rose to the throne. I'm not convinced that it's the new reality any more than the old reality. It's just more visible to those willing to see it as we go through the fourth turning.
I went to see Prophets of Rage in 2016 and was expecting to see a ringing endorsement of the resident neocon war-hawk (but I repeat myself) like so many others that flew the encircled A in my youth. At least Tom Morello still has the decency to write "Nobody for President" on his guitar.
But I guess I'm the dick because I'm not going to change what I believe to fit the prevailing politicosocial winds of the time.
"And I don’t know where the lies end
And the truth begins
Don’t listen to anyone
Telling you anything is the truth:
It’s all relative"
