A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Hair metal band, Twisted Sister with frontman Dee Snyder
"Network", (1976 - Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway) says it all better than anything
Well, there was a generation fed up with everything in the 70s and 80s. After that it was all really mild. Look at the music, most protesting music came from the end of the cold war era. It's now that music is getting more statement artists. NOFX and Rage Against The Machine already said "it's now time for the new generation to stand up and fight". So now we see artists like Bob Vilain and Kneecap get enormous traction, and other small artists to start do the same: produce angry music with harsh teksts to make very clear statements and rile up the crowd to match against the evil.
So let's even do more! Make more music like this, march against and fight fascism, AI, billionaires, corrupt polititions, evil mega corporations, war criminals, etc.
We had the longest time in history of stability, safety and peace, never before was it on average this good for so long. Now we are in step decline. Prepare for war, let your voice heard, be active not passive.
And, every generation demanding we vote for the lesser of two evils as if that isn't what every generation before did, like that's going to fix it.
Apparently Gen X wasn't going to take taxation anymore, so they made sure to abolish taxes for the top 1%.
Every single generation in the past 100 years has said the same thing. "My generation will fix it when we're in charge".
The God Damn boomers were the hippies from the 60s. What the fuck happened to peace and love?
My generation (Gen X), my goodness, we could see through all the bullshit. We're the original centrists.
Every single one of my children's Gen Z friends are all so woke they never sleep.
Turns out every generation is full of selfish shortsighted dumbasses just like the one before it. Just like "The Greatest Generation". Just like the boomers. Just like Gen X.
Faith in humanity...fading
Boo no copy pasted comments please
