It’s the best explanation for what we are witnessing, in my books, but watch my new video edit and make up your own mind. And if he has attempted this, then the WEF has just shot one of its own kneecaps.

Now THESE are words I never imagined I would ever write. And these are the times…
So I am here to praise rapper Pitbull. Not only for wokeness and having the balls to drop truth bombs, not only for being informed…
But mainly because he struck a major chord, with his plead for freedom. You see, I am too born and raised in the communist gulag, my Romania and his Cuba were very much alike back then, 30+ years ago… So after seeing this, I REALLY REALLY WANT TO GIVE A HUG TO THIS MAN, you know, make it physical. I also feel bad, I lumped him with the Cardi B’s of this world, and that’s his fault for making money with all these sell outs. But then again, if he keeps dropping truth from that height, it’s all better than good. So watch this and please please spread it around, it has the potential to drive more awareness in the masses! Let’s end this shit!
PS: The part where he says Fidel Castro must be dead jealous on Klaus Schwab… 💥💥💥
Watch the whole show and tell them Silview sent you over, for the woke part (it’s over 2h long) 😉

Censorship is what happens when people with greater powers than others go from saying “I hate this speech!” to factually suppressing that speech. Censorship IS hate speech enacted. Institutionally. Institutional hate that breeds more hate. And institutions follow an agenda. So there is a hate agenda.
Censorship has never protected anyone from hate. If only hate was just about speech! Censorship actually exacerbates hate through frustration. Most ideologically motivated mass shooters were deeply frustrated that their message was suppressed, and they killed people as a way to make themselves heard, among others.
In establishment’s propaganda, “hate speech” has become speech hated by the powers that be. Stalin and all communist dictators were branding any opponent “enemy of the people” and any dissenting speech as “subversive”. Replace that with the more contemporary “conspiracy theorist / terrorist” and “hate speech”, see if it reminds you of anyone.
Censorship means we are paying people to take away our speech and our vision. Collectively, censorship doesn’t happen TO us from an entirely external source. Censorship happens usually when a society abandons itself and the fight for freedom because it’s been bought up with more comfort or, more often, with promises of comfort. And, eventually, that comfort always proves to be less preferable than the comfort of liberty.
So censorship doesn’t really protect the people, but, in almost every instance, it has protected powerful and corrupt people from truth. Even the hate that it breeds fits a control agenda, because it’s divisive and it distracts us from lies, corruption and systemic failures. It robs us of messages of love and help from other people, when they go against the censor’s agenda . It’s just another typical situation of problem sold as a solution to itself. Logical hocus-pocus. That’s why they don’t properly teach logic in schools.
There is no way in which censorship can be beneficial, neither to the censored OR the censor. The latter always ends up suffering a form of strong backlash, because the energies it tries to suppress always find a way through, energy doesn’t disappear, doesn’t stay locked forever, it always transforms and manifests.
There’s no way censorship works for us, but there’s a million ways it can go against us.
Fight censorship simply by not participating in it and not collaborating with censors!

A version of this article was originally published on my arts and music blog on Synkretic Network, but since the issue and the angle here are much broader than music, reaching into free speech and economy, I think it has a place on this page too.
How many social protest songs have you seen in the charts this last decade? What does that mean?
There’s
a new generation now that hasn’t really experienced the great raw
energy of a large mass of people united in chanting a chorus that
expresses protest and discontent towards the establishment. “F You, I
won’t do what you tell me!” has been replaced with “F you, I will do
what this other establishment shill tells me!”. I’m an artist and a
promoter in my 40’s and I contemplate the strong possibility that I will
never again witness something like the early Rage Against The Machine,
or even Lenon’s “Imagine”, becoming largely popular. Social lyricism in
hip-hop is in a coma too. And this is how we got here:
Streaming services demonetized protesters
Internet
and streaming services are being used to take away underground’s income
sources and self-sustainability. You keep hearing Spotify or Soundcloud
are not profitable and you keep wondering how do they survive then?
They’ll always find financing, because they deliver all the music to the
audiences without making the artists’ lives self-sustainable. Sales are
a joke now. This way, independent artists become starving artists, and
it’s legal, unlike piracy. Only selected (or fabricated) establishment minions are allowed to thrive. That means only establishment’s messages get through. To the people running the show, this is worth much more money than it costs! A perfect assassination of artistic integrity and social protest.
If you hear anything, it’s sponsored. The 2019 RATM, if they re-unite
as rumored, won’t be anything like the early RATM because now they need
Google and Twitter and Vice and corporate festivals on their side to
succeed, not the other way around. The tables have been switched under
our noses while we were getting high on Facebook likes.
Of course
this new paradigm generated some independent success stories, but what
do they all have in common? They fall in line with what’s acceptable for
the establishment. And when you zoom out and look at the big picture,
which includes all artists, what do you see? I see a huge mass of
talented yet starving artists and a bunch of lottery winners, a few new
happy faces in the media every year keep the scam going. The middle
class in music is dead too.
Social media hijacked the audiences
“Bring
your fans aboard so we can disconnect them from you and connect them to
our establishment-sponsored BS!”. This has been the plan from the
beginning for the mainstream social media. They weren’t here to help
artists, unsurprisingly. They’ve just used artists and popular figures
to attract the masses and fill up their boat, and then they sailed their
own course. Only 5% of your Facebook artist page subscribers see your
posts now, but I bet they all are exposed to a ton of Coca Cola, CNN or
The Guardian posts even without subscribing to those pages. Perfect
heist!
How do we bounce back?
I’ll get massive
hate from corporate slaves for saying this, but there’s only one way I
can think of and I’m already working on what I preach:
More
direct contact with more implication and mutual support from both sides:
artists and audiences. If we don’t act now, tomorrow might be harder or
even too late.
What does that, technically, mean? Cut off
the gatekeepers and middlemen as much as possible, stay in touch
directly, support each other directly. This is coming from a guy who
partly works as a middleman too; but only because there’s still a need
for that, I’ll be happy to focus 100% on my own art when I’m not meeting
any needs anymore! It’s not more simple or more complicated than
building and maintaining a little dedicated fanbase without letting it
get leached and drained out by gatekeepers and middlemen. That means you
can’t use their tools, you have to circumvent them. So now’s the best
time to get creative, I await your ideas while I work on mine!
It breaks down to: Artists
need to invest more in their direct contact with the fans than in
traditional marketing and media plans. Time to get personal, the
industry and corporate media are not doing the job of putting us in
touch anymore, they only disconnect us. I spent a good bunch of time and
money to create a social network
just so that artists and fans of all sorts can freely talk and support
each other directly, without interference. I’ll create more tools and
options for that, but Synkretic Network already offers all the tools you need for this purpose at no cost. Maybe it’s time to populate it. Or start your own.
Fans need
to invest more in the artists that make their lives better, and do it
more directly. If you buy an $1 song from Apple or Amazon, there’s at
least 3-4 entities that will snatch 50-75% of that money before the
artist has a chance to see his share. If you see a donation button,
chances are that the artist will be able to spend about 80-90% of the
sum you send, so drop your dollar there instead of iTunes and such.
Avoid rips and leaches. If you don’t have money to spend, please help
spread awareness, it’s just as helpful. Or help the artists get booked
in your city. Just re-invest back in the scene some of the good energy
you’re getting from your favorite artists and we’ll be cool again! Only
if you want and find it necessary to have a healthy artistic life, for
yourself and the whole society as well.
As a personal example, the
last couple of years I started to make most of my work, past and
present, available for free, because art shouldn’t be for sale in the
first place, this is how the whole problem started. Art thrives from
honest crowd support. Low sales don’t mean people don’t care about
artists anymore, it’s just that they’ve been reprogrammed to care
differently and they lost the habit of paying; older folks aren’t aware
that paying for listening music is a strange concept to most teenagers
in 2019. I know I’ll get even less donations than sales for a while,
but I’ll receive double or triple the percentage and they’ll be
available instantly, not 5-6 months later, as per usual with the
industry. Also fans can’t ever feel cheated as they conveniently donate
whatever they can afford, whenever they can afford it, typically after
enjoying artist’s work; and their conscience is the only one to arbiter
how much they should invest in this. Win-win situation, that’s what
alien pimping is about! Use your money and shares wisely, my friends!
Hopefully I’ll also do a good job at persuading people they need to act as soon as yesterday, and dropping a coin in our digital hats when available can make a difference; so can a few good clicks. I’m becoming a digital busker, as I’ve said before, since I don’t have what it takes to be a good street busker. It’s yet way too early to say how it will work, but I doubt there’s any other way out of this swamp.
So here’s my digital busker hat, I’m already working to thank you: DONATE I mean, for consistence, besides other projects, I already have my next protest song in the works, it will be available for free download as soon as possible, whether you drop me a coin or not.
It took about half a year for life to deliver a final closure to this case. “In response to the outrageous ticket prices a new activist group has emerged called Rage Against Rage Against the Machine”, jokes the satirical site Daily Bonnet, after they found out that the ticket prices for the new 2020 RATM tour are soaring from $190 way up.
