Andre: He said, "I think that New York is the new model for the new concentration camp, where the camp has been built by the inmates themselves, and the inmates are the guards, and they have this pride in this thing they've built. They've built their own prison. And so they exist in a state of schizophrenia where they are both guards and prisoners, and as a result, they no longer have, having been lobotomized, the capacity to leave the prison they've made or to even see it as a prison." And then he went into his pocket, and he took out a seed for a tree and he said, "This is a pine tree." He put it in my hand and he said, "Escape before it's too late."

That movie is great, a must watch.
It came on my radar in the popular virus theatre.
Love that, we actually made a song using those as lyrics, should be released sometime next year.
Aye 🤝🔥Can’t wait for it to drop
You are right about that! 🤝🔥The dialogue throughout the movie is just amazing!! It just flowed effortlessly, not to mention the metaphors that are woven into it
Me too, it’s actually my favourite track on the album.
The chorus goes “It was the year of sometime soon, in the umpteenth day of June and all the rich had fucked off to the moon”.
Really captures the vibe of now.
Now I am intrigued and is there a preview I can check out?
Not as yet although I have played an early version on my morning stream. The band are called Tackhead and the release is penciled in for next year (I’m the engineer/programmer on the project).
They’ve actually been around since the 80s and a very heavy group of musicians.
Bummer! But I understand and hope you can tag me when it drops 😁😁🤞 will also check out some of the band’s songs.
I used to be amazed at how authors who lived many many decades before us, were able to paint exactly what we'd be going through.
It no longer amazes me, because I found out how they do it. With sufficient knowledge of your own shadow, of the logic of power and logic of violence, and history, you are able to see very clearly the outcomes of our trajectory.
This movie demonstrates this exact ability.
Man this is so profound I must say 👏🏻👏🏻 That’s actually true and I also think that when you are in tune with the substance of things, from a first principles perspective, it’s very easy to see how all the parts fit and how they break. This movie was basically “the matrix” explained without the special effects, where everything from the zombification of society was explained in the pre-smartphone era and even predicted transgender phenomenon, among other things
Thanks ☺️ Spot on it being a pre-matrix matrix.
Now I'm thinking. If we can use our propensity to understand evil and project a grim scenario, how about we look at projecting the reverse. A win, a future worth awaiting and building.
I couldn’t agree more!! 🎯💯
