Propagandhi - The State-Lottery Lyrics
Now, the real prospects for authentic democracy depend on something else. They depend on how the people in the rich and priveliged societies learn some other lessons. For example, the lessons that are being taught right now by Mayans in Chiapas, Mexico. They are among the most impoverished and oppressed sectors in the continent. But, unlike us, they retain a vibrant tradition of liberty and democracy. A tradition that we've allowed to slip out of our hands or has been stolen from us. And unless people here in the rich and privileged society, unless they can recapture and revitalize that tradition, the prospects for democracy are indeed dim.
Does it seem strange to you?
The confetti, the balloons, the mile-wide grins?
The victory dance to welcome in the heir to a state of disrepair?
They're acting like they won the lottery.
But shouldn't they feel terror at the task that lies ahead?
To feed and house the people that this system's left for dead.
And could I have hit the nail much harder on the head?
It's profits before lives. They are motivated by greed.
First they taught us to depend on their nation states to mend
Our tired minds, our broken bones, our bleeding limbs.
But now they've sold off all the splints and contracted out the tourniquets.
And if we jump through hoops, then we might just survive.
Is this what we deserve?
To fight amongst ourselves,
As we scramble for the crumbs they spit out?
Frothing at the mouth about the scapegoats that they've chosen for us.
With every racist pointed finger, I hear the goose steps getting closer.
They no longer represent us. Is it not our obligation
To confront this tyranny?

^^^^^ I can't tell if this is for real or not.
@CAP CAP WTF
My old profile, I specifically never touched the "allow ads" options, but after some of them got past a certain amount of views they started automatically putting ads...it pissed me off man.
I feel you bro
it's a feature of the dmca tools that youtube includes for the powers that be, you can take down the video or show ads.
but i just recommend people use ad block plus, it's amazing at removing ads.
Thanks for that. I have no idea what the guy above is talking about but I certainly haven't got anything to do with any advertising on these videos. I wouldn't even know how to get advertising on it.
YouTube puts ads on videos sometimes, so don't blame the uploader.
Don't advertise on a Propagandhi song, seriously... making money off this, are you braindead?
its youtube not the uploader you fuckin lunatic.
Nice, dude.
