"They're doing that dance again
Using all the same moves
Each one claiming concern
And an interest in you
They offer me up a choice
That gives me no choice
And participation
That gives me no voice"
- BULLET OF DIPLOMACY
Labour/Conservative; Democrat/Republican - whoever wins, we lose...but we always lose more with the Right.
ABOUT ME
Long time discontent and social critic. Former columnist for Fracture, Scanner, Mass Movement, Maximumrocknroll, Artcore, Cross Examination, Stray Housewive's Handbook, and Smokin' Troll fanzines and features-writer for Gair Rhydd student newspaper; I got my Ph.D. in political philosophy in 2008, arguing that "authentic democracy" or "anarchism" is the only ethically justified form of political power we can have, and haven't been proved wrong yet...
MISSION STATEMENT
Same Ideologies/Different Hairstyles
"They're doing that dance again
