Almost all revolutions begin with the idea that what you have known is wrong, and an alternative exists that although unproven will bring about a better world. The hangup is the word “better” — does it mean pragmatically (short term) better, realistically (long term) better, morally better, more profitable, more individualistic — and this detail bedevils the most adventurous of plans.

We make fancy terms for obvious things. Political correctness means making taboo any terms except those which support our “Libertarian Communist” style system; cancel culture and deplatforming mean the public spectacle of removing dissidents and non-conformists.

Russian label Satanath Records found out the hard way that American politics have spilled over into cyberspace when Facebook removed its label page for supporting extreme traditionalist black metal band Burzum.

Metal worships the extreme and natural, such as death, war, disease, horror, and disaster.

Elegy Records, the second oldest and longest running USBM record label, is closing its doors after 22 years due to social justice warriors lobbying to get them kicked off of credit card processors. The entire webstore is having a 60% off sale resulting in many classic and hard-to-find releases being available for around $4.
