[history]
The Who frontman is right: wokeness will only lead to misery.
Wokeness is a completely regressive phenomenon. It is censorious and divisive. But more than anything, wokeness is just boring. From comedy to literature to music, it saps the energy and the fun out of life as it desparately attempts to destroy anything that might offend or provoke.

If the current young generation is going to be “outraged” at everything, the least they could do is produce good music to express their anger at society. That’s what the Hippies did. That’s what the Punks did. It’s traditional. But young people today are listening to what? It’s all crap.
I think rock and roll needs Anger to be proper rock and roll. The Who delivered on that very well.

I think what might do it in is the close alignment with Islamic fundamentalism.

Leftist and commies can’t stand anyone having a good time b/c their lives are so empty and miserable.
IF they get into power, Roger, they will ban your music.

It's like a drug...
Well, you think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise
But it ain't happened yet, so girl, you better think twice
Don't you see no matter what you do
You'll never run away from you
And if you keep on runnin', you'll have to pay the price...
- Paul Revere and the Raiders

“So long as they (the Proles) continued to work and breed, their other activities were without importance. Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern...Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.”
― George Orwell, 1984

We had some sort of critter get into a kitchen wall.
Set the boom box next to the wall, put on a rap station, cranked the volume all the way up, and left home for a couple of hours. When we got home, the critter was gone. They don’t like that crap either.
