Buon 75esimo compleanno a #PhilCollins. Questa intervista di un paio d'anni fa è onesta fin dal titolo: un musicista che nella vita non voleva fare altro che il musicista. E quest'atteggiamento l'ha danneggiato quando, finita la sua epoca d'oro 80-90, è stato additato come simbolo del non impegno e corruttore dei #Genesis.

@caityjohnstone mentions the 2020 smearing/vilification/cancellation of Roger Waters for speaking about this #corruption. Four years earlier he provided narration to a startling and undeniably accurate #documentary #film about #Hasbara - the corruption and the manufacture of consent for it - called 'The Occupation of the American Mind' which started the ball rolling toward his erasure. It's recently become quite challenging to find; even any discussion of the film's existence. Although it could be rightfully considered propaganda itself simply because it has a point of view, a "bias", it does bring together a preponderance of facts about these things. It makes for compelling viewing even if you feel Waters is an asshole. He's rational and worthy of some respect, if only for sticking his neck out. And his participation in this film's production is limited. He just provides narration for parts of it; it's mostly well-edited, well contextualized, academic and journalistic archive & actuality.

"Some people will look at these clips and claim it’s antisemitic to even share them. Others will look at them and cite them as evidence that the world is ruled by Jews. For me they’re just evidence that the world is ruled by wealthy sociopaths, and that western democracy is an illusion... I mean, you really couldn’t ask for a better illustration of the sham of American democracy than this. Two billionaires from supposedly opposite political parties publicly admitting that they use their obscene wealth to manipulate US politics to advance the military and geopolitical agendas of a foreign state on the other side of the planet..."
To be opposed to the spuriously-faithbased whitenationalist ideology that excuses and promotes genocide like the 2025-6 US-Israeli #holocaust in Gaza and broader Western Asia - whether or not you label it as antizionism - is to be in favor of democracy over authoritarianism.
#Antizionism isn't #antisemitism, period. #deconflate It is however antifascism. Which is why hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions, have been spent (on something the Likud and other Israelis call Hasbara) to vilify those of us who find the now-ubiquitous, 21st Century #fascism intolerable. The US bargain with the people running the colonialist, occupying, apartheid, terror state of Israel was always a devil's bargain, in the end helping to promote and reinforce the US version of white-nationalism and its enforcers who are now at war against the US public in places like Minnesota. And Maine. And North Carolina. And Oregon. And Illinois.
Thank god it can't happen here #tgichh #plutocracy #corruption #racism #whiteNationalism
That's my take; here's @caityjohnstone's

"We're a culture of enormous violence." - Seymour Hersh
I was born the same year the US military began operation Rolling Thunder in Vietnam. I came of age during Iran Contra. I finally became *politicized* during the Iraq War (and more so since then). So much warmongering, violence, covert operations, naked aggression, politicians lying, and cover-ups have happen during my lifetime, and continue today.
As you might guess, I truly enjoyed the 2025 #documentary, COVER-UP, about Seymour Hersh.

The Afrorack
https://amf.didiermary.fr/afrorack-bamanya/
Bamanya is responsible for building Africa’s first DIY modular synthesizer, a huge wall of home-made modules and FX units that he dubbed, fittingly, The Afrorack.
His reason for embarking on this difficult project was simple: as he began to investigate the world of modular synthesizers, he realized it would be difficult to acquire the technology […]
When the COVID-19 pandemic puts the world on lockdown, artist-photographer Spencer Tunick reinvents his art in order to create spaces for connection within isolation, which allowed the participants to resist, survive and heal.
'Stay Apart Together' is a short documentary by Nicole Vanden Broeck. Total run time: 20 min.
"That you shouldn’t post too freely on social media has become — or returned to — conventional wisdom: If you’re posting publicly, your family might see it, your boss might see it, and, every once in a while, a few million strangers might see it as well."

It shouldn't surprise anyone that "Danyl Strype" isn't my birth name, and I've always been cautious about sharing info online that would make me too easy to identify.
(1/2)
My current avatar is a photo of me (a very old one), but I'm pretty cautious about posting images of myself that could be used to identify me (one reason I'm sceptical of dating sites).
I started using the net in the late 1990s, mainly as an activist tool, and it's always blown my mind that people have been routinely living their private lives in public since about the mid-noughties. Clearly they haven't seen;
