Gramsci says merry Christmas Motherfuckers

by Julien ASH - Antonella Eye Porcelluzzi

Prendo le difese dell’uomo Perché se mangi vegetariano E hai bisogno di carne Ti stai ammalando Perché se scegli l’elettrico Per evitare la benzina Vai contro i piani di Biden Che vuole solo distruggere i russi (Dopodiché tornerà ad essere contro l’Africa) Prendo le difese dell’uomo Perché conoscerà le forze della natura E molta gente preferirà la droga Prendo le difese dell’uomo Che si fa curare i denti senza piombo E li perde Prendo le difese dell’uomo Perché ci si dimentica Di cos’è una testa E non la si nutre E i bambini corrono Verso una vita senza vita Probabilmente senza alberi Perché moriranno con noi Prendo le difese dell’uomo Perché è condannato alla verità Che si rivolta contro di lui E lo uccide E lo salva

When you do something, you don’t start by saying « now I’m gonna do the best in the world » even if you intimately do, you just try to be as intelligent as possible, and include principles of life to let them work on your creativity. When you think about politics and politicians, you see them as those who should at least keep the conditions for life to develop. They are not very important but you think they will stay under the duty of bettering people’s life and support their activities wisely. So when you see the actual conditions taken by a few people at the government but implying the wellness of so many, you are first indignant and then you start thinking, what the fuck are they talking about, who the fuck is going to benefit this. So the decision to go into war was taken, and many people were agreeing, fearing attacks and letting their personal ideologies take the place of reason. With reason I think about the welfare of the main population, of the whole population ! Cold head, and good common sense serving the purpose of benefitting life generally. So when -after the crazy decision was taken to go into war, and followed up with other decisions, like cutting markets and call activities out of legality which involve millions of people- after those decisions start to have heavy effects, you hear politicians say that « we are attaining the end of abundance » you tell to yourself « which right do these people have to declare the end of the world? », because the world is abundance ! Which right do they have to destroy instead of supporting the creation which we as citizens and workers bring on everyday. They don’t have that right ! They don’t have the right to suppress activities, lives, births, confort, generosity, growth, labour, sweat, hope, vision, initiative, genius, ideas, feelings, and the whole flow of blood which is implied in life, and state that you don’t have to expect better times. Those people are clearly bringing bad luck and malediction over us and themselves, their children in new and older generations. If you are not creating peace and hope and positive dreaming and you are just having profit of your power and parasitizing and bringing gloomy mood in your life and others’, what the fuck are you living for? This is what I think.

Coraggio 04:35
Coraggio tu lo dici a me? Una che ti vuole bene Forse solo come i tuoi figli E come loro ti dico il vero Stai sepolta nelle scartoffie Con l’avvocato Aspetti cose che non si devono aspettare Come l’amore E la pioggia Il mondo si sgretola E tu non hai migliore idea Che darti alla pazza gioia Che non è pazza E non è gioia un’altra tomba sull’amore Per chi non sa ascoltare
