"Inflation especially hurts the poor" has truthiness — it sounds like it should be true. But I don't see either evidence or a mechanism.Заметки алкоголика и придурка

My brother and I are gen-X and we've often talked about this. Back in the late eighties/early nineties, all these bands constantly championed freedom of speech, free expression and hated the idea of censorship. It was all about freedom and 'f**k you' to the man. That attitude suited them when they were considered 'fringe' back in the day. The conservatives they raged about were often pretty vocal about their disapproval of these artists, but to their credit they never actually shut them down or cancelled them. Fast forward 25-30 years to where we are today and the ideologies of these bands and artists are now mainstream. They won the culture war and now they are establishment. So what do these ageing hypocrites do? They aggressively support censorship, sh*t all over the idea of free speech which they now see as dangerous, and dehumanize/denounce anyone who doesn't brainlessly conform with mandates handed down by increasingly totalitarian authorities. When I look back now, I can see that many of them were just sickeningly self righteous, hypocritical 'rules for thee, but not for me' type ideologues who were fortunate enough to have musical and lyrical talent which gave them a platform - which they abused to preach their BS at everyone. I can still enjoy some of their music but it's hard not to see many of these artists for the sell out clowns that they actually are. Just wish I could go back in a time machine and convince my sixteen year old self to look beneath their alternative 'costumes' and see what these people REALLY represented when they got power and money.apdeic. vēl vien klasika no tās pašas komentu vietas:
