Priests - "And Breeding"
Katie Alice Greer: "I’m not interested in art that is didactic or comes across like propaganda, and we never set out to be a band that feels responsible for educating people. I think that’s incredibly presumptuous, and I would rather our audience feel motivated to learn about things on their own. I don’t see myself as some kind of expert with special knowledge to impart on. I believe in art as a transformative force in culture. And I believe in encouraging critical thinking people — thinking that way does an incredible disservice to the sanctity of art" (...) .
"While Obama certainly seems a million times better than our current president, there were still a lot of problems with [his] administration: We were still an imperialist country dropping bombs on brown people overseas. We still had the prison-industrial complex that literally murders hundreds of thousands of people every year. You know, we were still the fucked-up country that we are now. We're all sad that he's gone now, but he was a President like any other. There was lots to be desired with him as President and I think that broken neo-liberalism is to a large extent what elected Donald Trump. Thus, I still do feel the same way. I've been changing the line 'Barack Obama killed something in me and I'm going to get him for it' to 'Barack Obama killed something in me, fuck Donald Trump and his white supremacy' when we play it live now"

O que eu continuo a perguntar-me é só isto:
- quem melhor, nas últimas décadas, in the U.S. of A.?
Sim, que uma cousa já afirmei (sempre afirmei, aliás!), eu não tenho ídolos.
"quem melhor, nas últimas décadas, in the U.S. of A.?"
Ninguém (parece o Frei Luís de Sousa... :-).
Mas isto "We were still an imperialist country dropping bombs on brown people overseas. We still had the prison-industrial complex that literally murders hundreds of thousands of people every year" não deixa de ser verdade.
Ok, encontra melhor, nas últimas décadas de presidência in the U.S. of A.!
E, raios, João, sabes tão bem quanto eu o quanto ele presidiu absolutamente c-o-n-d-i-c-i-o-n-a-d-o...
"encontra melhor, nas últimas décadas de presidência in the U.S. of A."
O Frei Luis de Sousa já respondeu, :-)
"o quanto ele presidiu absolutamente c-o-n-d-i-c-i-o-n-a-d-o"
Claro. E ele conhecia perfeitamente as regras do jogo que aceitou jogar: não se transforma lobos em cordeirinhos.
Melhor, só a geringonça. Em Portugal, claro.

Até um governo PSD/CDS é melhor do que qualquer governo norte-americano (Republicano ou Democrata).
A gente percebe.
São também socialistas...
O que importa é a destruição do capitalismo.
O que importa é usar o cérebro e não repetir chavões.
Obama used his brains, sweety, absolutely knowing how condicioned he really was.
Yet knowing who supported him, no matter what 😕
