Rage Against the .... Pianist??

I am XenoBoy. I am the Political Savant.

Rage is a funny thing. It makes you blind. It makes you righteous. And ultimately, it makes you commit a violence. When cynics with utter faith are in a rage, the rippling violence is that much more nuanced and unknowingly, the violence returns to the cynic with utter faith. These are ripples which return.

The NS defaulter aroused alot of rage. The rage is slowly diverted to the pianist himself. Squarely at the pianist. As much as the rage tries to attack the system, the rage is diverted to the pianist. Personified. This light sentence is so unfair. It is White Horse all over again. He got it light. The system is wrong. HE is wrong. HE must be punished. The system must punish HIM more, more more.

Unfair unfair unfair.

Kill kill kill.

Thou shalt kill.

The system responds. Cynics with utter faith are after all, the babies of the system. The voters of the Machine. Assuage them, and soon it will get its ticks. Tickets to another term in power. The mandate to rule. For this mandate, the system says : Mandatory jail term for the next NS defaulter. Mandatory. Why not two and a half years since we, cynics with utter faith, all suffered the same conscripted Jail Term in NS? If still too light, why not a mandatory Death Penalty?

Mandatory : Remember this word.

Mandate : Remember this word?

As the other buzzing Bs have seen and said astutely, this furor over the Pianist has been translated. Rage against the Machine? No. It has translated into Rage against the Pianist. The system was blind-sided by the Law too. The system is just as surprised at this Light sentence on the Pianist. The System is unhappy too. Why? Because, the System is part of us. So the System, as representative of us, will change the Law. Heavier Sentence. Mandatory jail term. As a stinging B once said, be careful what you wish for.

Shall we all stand up and applaud the System? clapclapclapclapclapclapclapclapclapclap.

Clapping of chains?

Rage is a funny thing. It makes us blind. It makes us righteous. It commits a violence. And more often than not, the violence returns to us.

Quotes of the Day --

"The day was twenty-four hours long, but it seemed longer. There's no hurry, for there's nowhere to go and nothing to buy...and no money to buy it with. Although Maycomb County had recently been told that it had nothing to fear but fear itself..." -- Jean Louise "Scout" Finch, To Kill a Mockingbird

"No escape from the mass mind rape. Play it again jack and then rewind the tape. And then play it again and again and againuntil ya mind is locked in. Believin' all the lies that they're tellin' ya. Buyin' all the products that they're sellin' ya. They say jump and ya say how high. Ya brain-dead. Ya gotta fuckin' bullet in ya head" -- Rage Against the Machine, Bullet in Your Head
