Revolutionary Vol. 2, yeah
Broadcasting live from Harlem, New York (Yeah)
Let the truth be known

https://genius.com/Immortal-technique-the-cause-of-death-lyrics

[Verse 1]
You better watch what the fuck flies out of your mouth
Or I'ma hijack a plane and fly it into your house
Burn your apartment with your family tied to the couch
And slit your throat so when you scream only blood comes out
I doubt that there could ever be a more wicked MC
'Cause AIDS-infested child molesters aren't sicker than me
I see the world for what it is, beyond the white and the black
The way the government downplays historical facts
'Cause the United States sponsored the rise of the Third Reich
Just like the CIA trained terrorists how to fight
Build bombs and sneak box cutters onto a flight
When I was a child, the Devil himself bought me a mic
But I refused the offer, 'cause God sent me to strike
With skills unused like fallopian tubes on a dyke
My words'll expose George Bush and bin Laden
As two separate parts of the same seven-headed dragon
And you can't fathom the truth so you don't hear me
You think Illuminati's just a fuckin' conspiracy theory?
That's why conservative racists are all runnin' shit
And your phone is tapped by the federal government
So I'm jammin' frequencies in your brain when you speak to me
Technique’ll rip a rapper to pieces indecently
Pack weapons illegally, 'cause I'm never hesitant
Sniper-scopin' a commission controllin' the president

[Chorus]
Father, forgive them, for they don't know right from wrong
The truth’ll set you free, written down in this song
And the song has the cause of death written in code
The word of God brought to life, that'll save your soul
Save your soul, motherfucker, save your soul
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I hacked the Pentagon for self-incriminating evidence
Of Republican-manufactured white powder pestilence
Marines Corps flak vest, with the guns and ammo
Spittin' bars like a demon stuck inside a piano
Turn a Sambo into a soldier, with just one line
So here's the truth about the system that'll fuck up your mind
They gave al-Qaeda six billion dollars in 1989 to 1992
And now the last chapters of Revelations are comin' true
And I know a lot of people find it hard to swallow this
'Cause subliminal bigotry makes you hate my politics
But you act like America wouldn't destroy two buildings
In a country that was sponsoring bombs dropped on our children
I was watchin' the towers, and though I wasn't the closest
I saw them crumble to the earth like they were full of explosives
And they thought nobody noticed the news report that they did
About the bombs planted on the George Washington Bridge
Four non-Arabs arrested during the emergency
And then it disappeared from the news permanently
They dubbed a tape of Osama, and they said it was proof
Jealous of our freedom? I can't believe you bought that excuse!
Rockin' a motherfuckin' flag don't make you a hero
Word to Ground Zero
The Devil crept into Heaven, God overslept on the seventh
The New World Order was born on September 11th
[Chorus]
Father, forgive them, for they don't know right from wrong
The truth’ll set you free, written down in this song
And the song has the cause of death written in code
The word of God brought to life, that'll save your soul
Save your soul, motherfucker, save your soul

[Verse 3]
And just so conservatives don't take it to heart
I don't think Bush did it, 'cause he isn't that smart
He's just a stupid puppet takin' orders on his cell phone
From the same people that sabotaged Senator Wellstone
The military industry got it poppin' and lockin'
Lookin' for a way to justify the Wolfowitz Doctrine
And as a matter of fact, Rumsfeld, now that I think back
Without 9/11, you couldn't have a war in Iraq
Or a defense budget of world conquest proportions
Kill freedom of speech and revoke the right to abortion
Tax cut extortion, a blessing to the wealthy and wicked
But you still have to answer to the Armageddon you scripted
And Dick Cheney, you fuckin' leech, tell ‘em your plans
About building your pipelines through Afghanistan
And how Israeli troops trained the Taliban in Pakistan
You might have some house niggas fooled, but I understand
Colonialism is sponsored by corporations
That's why Halliburton gets paid to rebuild nations
Tell me the truth, I don't scare into paralysis
I know the CIA saw bin Laden on dialysis
In '98 when he was top ten for the FBI
Government ties is really why the government lies
Read it yourself instead of askin' the government why
'Cause then the cause of death'll cause the propaganda to die
[Outro]
Father
Forgive them

At Wu Wei Tea Temple I was attempting to explain Immortal Technique to Peter J.

So I brought over my laptop and looked for a song to play.

I didn't realize there was a video for "Rich Man's World (1%)" until yesterday!

@christianselig Maybe I am a cynical misanthrope & an anti-capitalist (especially if it's tied into surveillance capitalism) but what if Reddit don't listen?

What if, hypothetically: users stopped gravitating towards hegemonic closed source Saa-Services & continued preferring to actively co-create libre/free #OpenSource alternatives.

Like, y'know the people were doing on the Internet, back in the 1960s when it was still called NLS (oNLine System)?

That we: participated in RFCs, & interoperable implementations of #protocols, not brand names?

That we: collectively cultivated ways to redistribute wealth & resources so that the most disenfranchised among us, were no longer sleeping under freeway overpasses, starving while those with obscene amounts of money alpha test "driverless cars" because, in their twisted world view: it is somehow verboten that a rich person pay an actual human chauffeur to drive them around if they don't want to focus on the road?

That maybe we start treating the commons as what they are & take better care of them?

What would be the high speed maglev rail for online discourse?

Do you think it should continually be privatized when predecessors (#NNTP) & underlying infrastructure, e.g. as #TCP/IP & #DNS, #SMTP, #HTTP are libre/free open source & distributed, with multiple interoperable implementations, by design?

How about we have an Internet:

Without another #Reddit, or FB/Meta/IG, no #IBM & ITT & AT&T & DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide, & Exxon, no Amazon or Oracle, Micro$oft ever again?

Why are we waiting? Really?

You think those who abuse their money & power, are going to stop?

Was #Network (1976) lost on everyone?

I don't think so! It's been sampled by #Snog, #ImmortalTechnique & myriad other musicians for DECADES!

Do you think Jeff Bezos would even understand #GilScott-Heron's "Whitey on the Moon" (1970)? Blue Origin won a lunar #NASA contract!

These technocrats, are ethically destitute, culturally ignorant, robber barons.

Today, I'm celebrating thanksgiving. I'm celebrating this because my family don't care, and it really is a free meal. I don't eat well very often these days. Before we go, I'd like to meditate communally for a moment. This might be an indigenous remembrance day for many, but this won't be an indigenous remembrance day post.

I call this day, or the rememberance of a day recently passed, donkey dick day.

Donkey dick day is the name I would usually give the 5th of November. The reason is that all efforts to reform the spaces conversation come down to conversion therapy. Every power suffocates you with a colonizers mental slavery; and as long as you're struggling, they can believe with confidence that you'll eventually thank them for it. Today is a day we're remembering that either we're thankful for being willing to be colonizers, or we remember that we are colonized and its a sufferage to just need to struggle to take our minds back. I say refuse, get stubborn, and fuck them with that donkey dick.

Now its like I'm actually trying to get banned.

Today is a day to remember that a motherfucker might go to an extreme rampage and do some guerilla shit because they got stupid and so did we. Personally, I'm not just schizo, I know what those US government made crickets sound like. Heres what they sound like really: childish as fuck until they find something else to muse on.

Today, you don't have a voice. I'm pretty much sure of it. Nobody who follows me has one. Nobody reading this on Mastodon has one. Most people don't care about you because even when the culture ain't about white joy, respect and happiness-centrism, it's still about being a slave colony of some motherfucker who wants to do half the work for double of the ethnic payout. I don't care if you like joy, respect and happiness-centrism; but when you tell me that I'm disrupting shit because I like to play drums on the street, I'll flyer your neighborhood as to why the guerilla should join the patriarchy to make Karens bleed.

Today, you don't have a voice. Tomorrow you won't have a voice. Tomorrow you won't have a voice because you will refuse to unify with others under an umbrella of scientific self-optimization because someone told you when you were a child that it would inconvenience hours of your time at a time.

Think about that for a moment: someone told you as a CHILD how to make the best use of your time.

You've been told that you can't help yourself; so do you even know the tools to help yourself? White gamers complain that games are getting worse. Really, people are really just getting dumber. Subtractions from the form of uncertainty just keep getting easier and easier to make. Whats your complexity like? Whats your praxis like? What kind of mental slave are you? Do you understand that at this point, you kind-of owe me n00ds?

Today is thanksgiving for me; but I'm not so cavalier. I give all violations I must do unto god, because its convenient to have a coconspirator. I know wtf I'm up too! God gave thanks unto me, that's the message in the book. I'll give thanks when the plan is done; but I give thanks today for my self anger. I give thanks to my self anger; because I'll worry about it when I get it done, but I'm fucking livid now.

Today, I invite you to do something reckless with a white man. Let's celebrate every day that has passed since the 5th of November by drumming. Lets drum a fuck you for every person with a conversion therapy to bring us to account for. Today, let's violate some terms of our collective uses and services. Lets drum. Today, let's fuck up the policy of privacy until someone else is privy to judge me. Lets drum. Until someone is privy to judge you. Lets drum. Today, lets tell somebody that their credit line is denied; I am not going to be a giving piece of shit today.

Now turn up the album below! #ImmortalTechnique
