What do Coachella and Glastonbury have in common? I have never fucking heard of them until I saw some headline about someone regarding that festival. For Coachella, I think it was that Bolshevik Bernie wasent there on his bullshit "Fight Oligarchy" tour, which is rich coming from the stereotypical "old, rich white man", who has like three mansions and honeymooned in Russia, where Oligarchy is a valid problem. For Glastonbury, Iron Maiden brought it to my attention because Bruce said they'd turn down any invitation because he doesn't want to play in front of “Gwyneth Paltrow (whoever the fuck she is) and a perfume-infested yurt”. As I indicated, idk who the fuck Gwyneth Paltrow is. I mean I looked her up but I don't know what Bruce would have against her. Maybe she's like Cheron Ozbourne. Anyone who knows anything about Iron Maiden at Ozfest 2005... IYKYK. But I don't blame Bruce. That festival is riddled with Palestine flags and boomers. I used to have respect for boomers; I grew up around boomers and I've always thought the more recent generations are stupider. But I've come to realize boomer are also stupid. For one, they were the first hippies - the fuckers who sympathized with the murdering Communists and insulted soldiers who came home after fighting a war they didn't want to be a part of.
Anyway, the Glastonbury line-up included Neil Young from that Costby Still nash & Young group that made that lame song about Kent State (Didn't he come out as nonbinary or some shit? Becuase I swear I saw something online about some old geezer coming out as nonbinary, and I thought he was one of those four guys, but i can't find anything...), Not My Franz Ferdinand, Def Tones, Weezer, Kneecap, and a bunch of others I'd never heard of. Well the first shitshow that happened was some asshole singer (I think from kneecap) sang a song that goes "The only good Tory is a dead Tory; kill your local MP". Now, I don't know what MP stands for, I just know it's the members of Parliment. And I first heard of Tories when I read Rip Van Winkle like... once. When he woke up he went to town and people asked who he wanted for President, and having missed out on the Revolution he declared his support for the King, so everyone called him a Tory. So I guess Tory was another word for Loyalist. But as a political party in the UK, I have no idea who they are or what they stand for. But Kneecap got kicked out, or at least BBC decided not to broadcast their performance, and reasonably so.
Not so reasonable, though, they decided instead to broadcast this guy by the name of Bob Vylan. Well actually that's the name of his duo with some other guy. Their stage names are Bobby and Bobbie Vylan (cue the Squidward "How original" meme). Now I've never listened to their songs, or songs by Rage Against the Machine, but I'm told they steal from Rage Against the Machine, who ironically are sell-outs to whatever "the Machine" is. I'll have to go back to the video I watched (made by Bearing and SugarTits if you want to check it out), but the singer's legal name is as British as you can get. Yet this son of a bitch started a song by chanting "Death! Death! to the IDF! Death! Death! to the IDF!" The IDF being the Israeli Defense Force. He also chanted "Free! Free! Palestine!" and had a song that went "Heard you want your country back. Shut the fuck up!"
See Britain has this problem where they have a bunch of people coming in from Africa and southern Asia, people who are culturally very different from Europeans, and who choose not assimilate. So they go around raping British girls and say "I couldn't control myself!" (which would have feminists crying about rape culture if it was a white man who made that excuse), and their women harass European women who wear shorts and no hijabs. But the British people who have an issue with this are told by their politicians that "Nah nah nah... You. You are the problem." And being afraid of Britain losing its ethnic, cultural, and religious identity that its had for fucking ever, make you a far-Right, white supremacist terrorist.
Honestly I don't know what more I can say that I haven't already said except I wish I could shoot this bastard, and to go watch Nuxanor talk about this shit. I don't just listen to him talk, I'm also listening to the people he's watching. There was an AP journalist who had to remove an entire paragraph from one of his articles, talking about how Hamas was dressing as civilians (a war crime btw) and their casualties were counted as civilian deaths. Egyptians don't want to take in the Palestinians because when the Palestinians went to Lebanon, or Jordan, or Yemen, that's when they got civil wars. Hell, when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, their Palestinian population supported him! Palestinians mean trouble for any country that takes them in. And of all the European dumbasses who tried to march through Egypt into Gaza (and got their shit handed to them), one from Wales tried to reason with them, "Why won't you help you Islamic brethren?" Buddy, look at intra-Islamic conflicts throughout history. The conflicts between Sunnis and Shia, the shit Palestinians start in other countries. Look up how many Muslims thoughout history have died at the hands of other Muslims. Muslims don't give a shit about brotherhood anymore than Christians do. Although from what I've seen, and what I've heard from my comrade who's studying at a university founded by the Brethren but has a good chunk of faculty and students who are Catholic, even Catholics and Brethren are getting along today, and their ancestors had a fucking blood fued in the 1530s! But anytime a Christian does something morally wrong, everyone talks about it like all of Christianity is hypocritical, but then a Muslim could do the same detestable act, or something worse, and "Oh boo hoo hoo! You shouldn't judge all Muslims based on one person!" That's the state of the western world today. Our enemies who want us dead are the good guys and innocent victims, and we're colonizers, and our allies deserve to die.
Speaking of which, for his next trick, Trump made the Democrats (and some Republicans, like Tucker Carlson) support Iran. Sigh. I don't know what to say. I don't want regime change in Iran, at least not directed by the US, because that's worked SO WELL for us in the past. But I want the ayatollah dead, and I want their nukes gone. I want their women liberated. And I want everyone who thinks Iran is the good guy dead. And I'm sick and fucking tired all the anti-Israel conspiracies. The idea that Israel did 9/11, or that they benefitted from it, and a bunch of other shit. It's so stupid. I mean Jews have done so stupid shit throughout history, I expect they did some shit to provoke disdain, but this is getting stupid.
