Incremental change is the only was to exact change, not an avalanche of change Agent Cheetoās base wants no change so his party is not only promising zero change but a back rolling of the countries firmware entirely.

Wasnāt my intention, BUT it was my intention to be a pro mental health one. Not every thread has to be sanitizedā¦. Its an art site. Just ignore it and move on if its a problem, no use crying over a tree falling 100 miles away. Theres other trees.
From the inside a civil war is already happening

Is it sadistic that I kinda want to buy a synth from a great artist.
Imagining the personification of the gear being like āI was user for great things and now Iām used forā¦thisā¦ā
The synth moaning and gnashing of keys

Pretty much a feralist approach to discourse theres a reason its called passive thought policing or subliminal Fascism .
I said hi in hooes of just giving people a space to say how they are feeling or what stuff they are doing everyone us free to say what ever: its a topic-less thread.
On that note since we are here let me explain something to you.
For many of us around the world we are on the verge of nationalist take overs and many of us are poised to have so many of our rights taken that owning a elektron product means nothing. Its hard to create and its hard to exist.
Art is political, music is art, neutral art is political, the absence of politika in art is politics in motion simply because you have the privilege to say,ā naw it doesnāt concern me.ā
If you hate politics im happy for you, you must have it really nice, congrats. The folks in here mentioning their feelings on the matter are scared. Let them have their feelings. Go to another thread if its that triggering for you.

If you dont like people voicing their feeling for tge day which was the point of the day, like a digital āhey bud hows everyone holding up existentially,ā i think you can find a new thread.
There are thousands here. Also dunno if youāre aware, but social media is dead people want to have discussions now.
I make techno, you know who goes to techno shows, punks, deviants, and people tired of problems. Thats the scene, noones in the crowd or outside cooling down being like ābruv no politicsā¦ā

Hey!
No need to push out someone who makes a joke. But I get why youāre concerned. I am too.
Lately I have being visiting the Castle of Chenonceau, near Tours in France, where Louise Dupin had been gathering the best writers/philosophers of the XVIIIe century (Rousseau, Voltaire, Diderot, Montesquieu, Marivauxā¦). Together, night after night, they revisited the Ancient Greek democracy principles.
I also learned that Mme Dupin wrote about the status of women, I have to find such booksā¦
It was a real emotion to be in such a place, not only because it was magnificent.
Now we are all facing the rise of fascism. Facists are good on the internet or whatever is not too close to dealing with reality.
But also because the actual power in place fails to really protect the populations and bend to the most powerful ones. Police violence in France, and journalists intimidation feel like the prĆ©mices of an awful futureā¦
Now is a good time to read again the classics from the XVIII and later, and find the networks to oppose to this scary future in the name of freedom, equality and solidarity.
I wonder what Iāll end up doing. But music does not appear sufficient a battleground.

David was a great era.
Not pushing a single netizen out. Explaining the concept of freedom of speech and expression. If it causes friction a simple solution is to leave the cafe.
If a line is too long dont get mad at the line, theres another starbucks down the street.
Say whatever unless I disagree isnāt the definition of free speech. Some follow politics, Some donāt. Itās all good.
Iāll bow out now as Iām a lover not a fighter.

Never disagreed with a thing you said. Said people can talk politics. That is it. You are projecting some form of victimization onto me and others, you can say what you want but dont get mad at the line to the coffee shop. They got there before you and ordered large drinks.
not sure what you are actually replying to hereā¦ but iĀ“ll stick around anywayā¦ i was more being a bit tongue in cheeck rather than anything elseā¦ maybe my reply could be read as something elseā¦
Sorry was the person directly above me but also my comments that i made towards you might have been because i cant tell sarcasm through the internet, i dont think 80% of people can which is why the internet hs turned into what it is. My apologies.
