Something happened in the 60s. Maybe someone dosed the water supply with LSD?
There was a youth explosion. Music, The Arts, Philosophy, Culture.
I'm sitting here listening to the Bluesbreakers "A Hard Road" on vinyl.
That kind of heart cannot be replicated by The Black Keys, as much as they try.
Philip K. Dick considered the movement against the Vietnam War to have been the last time that consciousness rose up and took shit over.
Did Steve Jobs use his LSD experiences to hijack the human potential of the 60s and enslave it to computers? Did you also know that his widow is the single largest investor in Walt Disney and perhaps one of the richest women in the world?
We've been played, y'all.
Time to get our eyes off of our phones, out of our "Facebooks" and back "on the road."
We don't need sentimentalism, we don't need Kerouac-ian swagger.
It's time to put the heart where the mind is.
Philosophy and Heart is the only thing that can steer this spaceship properly.
Time's almost up. Do it or lose it.
Don't get lost in some narcotic Spotify playlist!
Intelligence must become self-conscious, realise its own power, and, on a global scale, transcending functions that are no longer appropriate, dare to exercise it. History will not overthrow national governments; it will outflank them. The cultural revolt is the necessary underpinning, the passionate substructure of a new order of things. — Alexander Trocchi
