Simple Practices...

Ok, I don't know if I am a communist...

BUT,

I.M.H.O., I think that if human society is to become more... humane and not destroy itself, there has to be a change to the way people act within it...

I believe that there has to be a socio-political re-organizing, where the average person and all will work for the common good, for the community, for the whole and not for themselves, while each person will have the security that the community, the State will care for their needs and will provide them with the essentials of housing, food and health care at all times...

That way, fraudulence for personal gain will have no meaning, while everyone will be safe that there is no danger of being left without home or doctor...

Is this communism? Is it bad?

Intellectual Property?


Can you own an idea? Once you've come up with a poem, a story, a tune do you really expect to give your permission for someone to... evoke it?... and make a profit out of it?
Artistic creations are like children... once you bring them into the world, you have to release them... otherwise they suffocate...

Many film or music industries claim about lost profits due to the free circulation of art... who do they think we are? Do they actually think that we would be able to buy all this music and films that we freely circulate?

And one other thing... supposedly by buying CDs or DVDs, we help everyday working technicians like me and you make a living... if the entertainment industries care so much about them, then they should lower their prices and give equal shares to them!...


Being a writer myself, I try to imagine others copying my works and distributing them without me making any profit... Of course, since I'm a new writer, that would be an exquisite flattery to me... plus, EVERYONE would love to live only through their art, but Its free distribution is more important to all...
I make a simple thought... I remember all the art that I had access to without giving money I didn't have...

Rage


This is an anti-drug P.S.A. I like her Rage, though...

Prophesies Sung



In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find

In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do and say
Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to do
Nobody's gonna look at you

In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs got not nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you

In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter, too
From the bottom of a long black tube

In the year 7510
If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
"Guess it's time for the Judgement day"

In the year 8510
God's gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say "I'm pleased where man has been"
Or tear it down and start again

In the year 9595
I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing

Now it's been 10,000 years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday

Feeding Frenzy


For thousands of years, Mankind has been living off of Earth's resources...
Consuming, as if they were endless...
It figures!... Our ability to harvest what our planet has in store for us was so limited that no matter how much we spent, it seemed that there will always be more!... There will always be enough...

But, since the Industrial Revolution and up to our times, our technology and exploitation abilities have increased dramatically!...

For thousands of years we've been living with what Earth had "in store" for us... and these resources are depleting!...
And we show very little intention of changing our ways...

George Orwell winks at Us!...


Well, congratulations, people!... We are constantly turning our society into a perfect copy of the "1984" nightmare!...

Well done! Doublegood done!...
