1960s Dancing Insanity

Yet more 1960s craziness. Who are the crazy silver clad dancers? Where did they learn to bust such bad ass moves? Why do Space-Women wear silver bikinis? WHY?

Tears of the Rising Sun

This is a tribute and record of the Sendai Earthquake. A tragic event in which thousands have died, many more are homeless and the whole world saddened by the devastation.

1960s Drumming Insanity

Why are is there a prison for drummers? Who are the security guards? What is the commander of the prison smoking? On a more general note WHAT THE FUCK? This is a scene from Gonks Go Beat, a crazy and crap 1960s film.

Telesales

I'm looking for a new job at the moment. My current job is fine I suppose, but it is deadly boring and I would like to be paid more. So I boot up the laptop and look for jobs online. Everything is online, and jobs are no exception. Except that the only jobs online I have found in two hours of searching are TELESALES. No thanks.

Bacon Barm

The Police out in force at the Manchester demo.

A phalanx of state power, all jack boots, riot gear
and desperate to arrest someone, anyone.

The horses were out, like some fascist knights,
with shield and club standing above us ready to charge.

The cameras were watching, taking our faces,
inscribing our names and all the while pretending we’re free.

The Arab Revolution

The recent response to the Tunisian and Egyptian revolutions by the Western Powers has been breathtakingly hypocritical. The muted and conservative response underlines the approach of the "west" to democracy. When the Soviet, Chinese and Eastern European people came onto the streets in the late 1980s they were all for it, for the end of their major political, economic and strategic foes.



Now in the Arab world people protest about the corrupt, repressive dictatorial regimes that have been supported and propped up by the west. The silence of the western leaders is deafening. These our *our* guys, our stooges....Yet there are oppressive and corrupt, keeping millions in poverty as they colluded with global capital in shifting to a neo-liberal economic policy.

In way the exploitation of the people by this international cartel of interests sowed the seeds of its own destruction in creating poverty and class consciousness. They should have read Marx though shouldn't they.



Continuity, Stability, these have been the watchwords of their response. Pussyfooting around the hundreds of thousands on the streets facing down the police state. Where were the calls for continuity regarding the Stasi, the KGB? This shows the bullshit of their belief in democracy. It's a fig leaf, a convenient lie. A lie drenched in blood for oil, the sweat of billions around the globe, in our utterly inane wealth lives. A prompt and moral response would be to explicitly state support for free election. It might be seen as meddling, but yet it is not as if the west doesn't already.

The true face of our support for these pseudo-client dictators is our collusion with Libya and the insane Gaddafi regime. Absolute Nutter. Look at him. We both sold out and did some trade deals and now he was in the fold, and now as his security apparatus lay waste the people in brutal suppression they are with British made, government mandated and supervised exports.

The Mad Dog

They, Ben Ali, Mubbarak, Gaddafi, sold themselves as anti-Islamist. We bought into that to support our own geo-political narrative of terrorism. It is clear thought that creating poverty and exploitation in cohorts with the west would create a society more open to the radical alternative model of political Islamism.

North Korean Cinema

A report on the North Korean Cinema 'Industry' by Al-Jazeera. Propaganda Central.

A crushing report on what is a clearly a Stalinist country of oppression and exploitation straight out of the 1930s.
