Good. Fuck the industrialisation of all of our land. Leave some to be wild!
They made deserts where trees once stood
Squeezing from the land every penny that they could
Ethnic cleansing of the glens for farming sheep
'Cause that way there's more profit for the rich scum to reap (rape)
"Beautiful bleak moorland?" I don't think so!
This is a place where great forests used to grow
Laid waste by a rich man's greed
Reclaim the land and plant the seed
It's only crazy effective if it's not expected. If it becomes the norm then everyone just starts wearing foam ear plugs, maybe ear defenders if they're fancy.
It's easily defeated and incites the wrath of the populace. It's dumb to use, especially during a moment of silence for the dead.
To those downvoting blakenong, have a read of this.

The day was described by social movement researchers as "the largest protest event in human history".[1]
I don't want to burst the feeling of optimism, but unless there's consequences, a general strike, riots, whatever, I don't know, something, nothing will happen.
If everyone goes back to their day job after standing out in the cold for a day or two and then pats themselves on the back saying "yeah, we showed them", then nothing changes.
Protest is dead. The powers that be don't care if there's a million people shouting and screaming. Unless they suffer consequences, nothing will change.
There are legal requirements for knowing the origin of foodstuffs in most liberal progressive democracies, I'm sure Denmark will have some. If a supermarket cannot discern where their foods are coming from I think there's far bigger issues at play than European star labels.
What you're suggesting is that large corporations are so incompetent, and being incompetent is profitable, that they should be left alone to continue to be incompetent. So that they can profit and we, the consumer, are told to jog on.
If they cannot confidently say an item is European then they shouldn't label it as European.
If they cannot confidently say which continent an item they expect you to eat comes from, then they shouldn't be operating.
If the idea is to avoid American, and support European. Purchasing from a middleman European company is hardly supporting European.
Most of the money ultimately still ends up in American hands, just the tiny bit of profit added on during the final sale to the consumer remains European. Everything else goes back to America.
If I sold you a packet of bananas, and told you they're Irish bananas because it's an Irish company selling them, you'd call me a liar because obviously Ireland doesn't have the climate to grow bananas. It's the same principle.
If it's not European, don't put the star on, it's pretty simple.
- Make a list of necessary gear before your trip, then check it off the list as you pack. This helps ensure you don't forget anything. You can even categorise the list, so you can easily see what kit is in which pockets/dry bags.
- Dry bags are incredibly useful if you hike in wet weather or ford rivers. Different coloured bags can help with categorisation, for example, you know the yellow bag is fresh clothes, the green bag is camp kit, the blue bag is water filter and chlorine tablets, the red bag is electronics, etc. This makes finding stuff a piece of piss and saves rummaging.
The lyrics for this song, particularly the finale quote, are pretty apt to your point. NSFW if your boss doesn't like the word fuck.
That's pretty rad. Whatcha planning on planting?
America is racist.
Not every American, obviously.
But as a nation, institutionally, America is racist.
Some times it's more so than others, but it always is, to varying degrees throughout its history.
The head of the security service isn't just a meathead bit of heavy muscle there to jump in front of a bullet.
Martial law also isn't some obscure policy, it's an internationally understood term that replaces the democratic civilian parliament with military rule.
This is definitely something someone in his position should be very aware of and should be willing to do something about.
