first of all im not a revolutionary.
im not militant.
i just like politically charged debate, music and art.
these next 4 years depending. could be the the crucial moment
in how the post-cold war kids will leave this world.
i sense a second wave of hardcore punk emerging, but the only problem is kids cant let the first one die in peace. instead of dragging it out and using it as a fashion and a bad excuse to be immature. instead of standing for something and fighting, its become frivolous.
im not a punk rocker.
but i have been an avid supported of reform. (watered down revolution)
senseless uninformed protesting pours salt into the wounds.
holier than thou spouting and shit kicking during election times allows for a lack of cooperation in the highest forms of power in the nation. ( the people)
if we spent more time focusing and educating ourselves, we'd understand how both candidates are drifting towards the same platform. ( i back in 06 read an article about a hopeful mccain obama platform) would have been cool.
yes barrack obama will keep forces in the middle east.
mccain will have government programs helping fight global warning (dont get me started)
i just want the party names to be dropped for a second, value each candidate on their stance and plans on the issues, their history in office and make a valid decision on who you honestly feel is better suit for the job of commander and chief.
im not a republican, im not a democrat.
im not an anarchist, im not a communist.
i want to be able to work to support myself and my family.
but in the future, if the equation is right.
and a new dawn of a punk era ( similar to the early 80's)
then i will have no problem jumping on board.
but to let u know the person who you'll be fighting against
wont be who u think it is.
