    I don’t doubt you or the people. Please don’t shoot the messenger, but the image that I see is more like economic possession. I don’t see any Afghanistan style occupation or conflict, but rather economic control by proxy and that there are those amongst your people that will sell the rest of you out. The aristocrat class will remain as usual and they will align with US interest. I hope I am wrong because I prefer a world where power is balanced as much as possible.



  • I been playing >30 years. You DO NOT have to create music that has ANY commercial value.

    I was happy to play whatever I want all this time. I am dope, I do not need any confirmation from anyone.

    If I play a song you like, you will say I am good. If I play something you don’t like, you will say I am bad.

    I will not change what I am doing to make money off it. That’s it.

    Play what you want. I encourage you to create a new style of music, what could be greater as a musician?

    The key is that you persist. I call it survival or I like to say, despite whatever is going on, “yet I still persist”. Finding new and different reasons to help you maintain this persistence are also very important. Stay here don’t leave. That’s it.



  • I don’t listen to or follow any of the sources on the chart, and I don’t like politics. That said, as a passerby I thought it was an interesting chart. One thing I thought about, the legacy media that is highly manipulated in my opinion is dominated by so-called left and the pseudo independent in my opinion voices in red on the chart are dominated by so-called right.

    I believe most people no longer trust the legacy media and are turning to just about anything else as an alternative.

    I think most people mistakenly think that some of these voices in red are independent of or not affected by persuasion, coercion, other. Some of these voices in red are also potentially literal government agents.

    All that said, I also find it interesting that there are not more blue dots: pseudo independent so-called left voices.

    Does this mean that the so-called left audience is captive to the legacy media? And/or does this mean that the so-called left audience does not trust independent voices?

    I will check some of the comments to the original post to see if anybody has thoughts on that.

    Anyways, thanks for your time.
