Frank was brilliant. Our government was always afraid of him.

He was obviously right and its so shameless that is incredible that there is people that buy that propaganda today. The lack of politics, history, and critical thinking in general today is just dead. I often think that knowing (more ore less) how the powers and the world operates and how they manipulate the mass so incredibly shamelessly it's a curse. It makes you angry and even if you show the evidence in front of anyone they will just decide to ignore it.

we are on our way to a facist theocracy!!

Why does the guy from the Washington Post look and act like the crazy talk show guest in Starship Troopers?

what song are they complaining about????

2025 here, in morocco, and i understand him more than ever !

So accurate ! 😮 Great man

"In this world, only human beings reduced to the lowest degree of humiliation, much lower than mendicancy, not only without any social position but considered by everybody as deprived of elementary human dignity, of reason - only such beings have the possibility of telling the truth. All others lie." - Simone Veil

Frank at his finest, made those two look quite pathetic. "Live at the Filmore was a cracking album and I play it regularly here in Australia, I think it was banned in USA . Some people cant handle the truth. 💚☮💚☮💚☮

Frank had a clear view of things. We miss him.

Those conservatives in the 80s were such Reagan whores.

zappas calmness in the face of these idiots is world class. had they let him speak and been open to actually hearing an alternative perspective that wasnt just parroting the neoliberal talking points of the government, then they mightve actually learned something.

Not sure Zappa is right here, it is really hard to find the roots of morality outside religion.

🧭

This is like one eagle and three frogs discussing about the shape of landscape surrounding.

Gee I sure wonder why this is at the top of my recommends today...

Does the Washington Times still exist?

It's ironic that the rock legend Mr. Zappa outclassed the other people, and his statements are more relevant today than anyone could have imagined.

Zappa was of Italian background, so he knew a thing or two about fashism😂.

I didn’t agree with everything he said but he predicted the future.

Bush Sr. and the neocons winning the republican civil war post-Reagan proves Zappa wrong. If Pat Buchanan and the paleocons won the struggle for the GOP, Zappa might have had an argument (though still nothing close to a fascist theocracy)

Fvck I wish we still had this brilliant man around to tell all these fucking ancient white-man morons what's what. Obviously there'd be WAY MORE incredible music from Frank that I KNOW would've been EPIC, but goddammit we need more people like Zappa to straighten all this sh!t out. R.I.P. Frank 🖤 -

OMG, wasn't Frank Zappa prescient!!!

Zappa was right.

I see blind suits scrambling to figure out what to do with the newfound degenerate communist subversion taking place since the end of the Great War, and finding a random hydra head to point their fingers at because they can't even fathom what the entire hydra actually looks like. This is when the destabilization really started kicking off. Sex, drugs, rock n roll, mainstream pr0n, immigration, greed, gaming addictions, even worse drugs, genital mutilation in children, people used as political weapons against other people, Weimar 2.0

Haha, what a bunch of sick nasty old men next to him. History will remember.

It’s 2025 and Frank was right on the money.

Man was more right than he realized.

"what do you think Mr Zappa"? *Continues to talk over Zappa*

The same people who were trying to censor rockstars are complaining everything is woke and politically correct nowadays

Wake up America, you have established the worlds first "Mammonist" state. You are entirely unique in the world. Plenty have tried before but you have succeeded. The pursuit of wealth is deified, government is bought and sold, Justice is just a scale that measures your individual wealth, corporate entities enjoy far greater protection than individuals, you vote every four years but the choice is evil or evil. Don't sit there and debate what word defines your government, it's irrelevant crap, it's not "your government " it is a circus designed to fool you inti accepting your servitude. Have a nice day folks.😊

He was right.

The Earth is flat!. You voted Trump!.

Hes right! Ever since Trump won even my cat has turned into a fascist! 😂

Well, Frank was on target. Happy New Year!

Zappa was obviously completely wrong and the others were right. These days most people waste their days gooning over all kinds of absurd porn and games and weed.

Why am I getting videos from 309 years ago on my fyp?

Watching it in 2025 and can only state he was 100% right

1:39 germany had communist and democratic socialist parties before the nazis so progressivism has nothing to do with it

Ignorance/cognitive dissonance prevails! Bless you, Frank Zappa. You'd hate to see what's happening today.

From Wikipedia, citations removed, read the article. "Describing his political views, Zappa categorized himself as a "practical conservative." He favored limited government and low taxes; he also stated that he approved of national defense, social security, and other federal programs, but only if recipients of such programs are willing and able to pay for them. He opposed military drafts, saying that military service should be voluntary. He favored capitalism, entrepreneurship, and independent business... He opposed communism, stating, "A system that doesn't allow ownership... has-to put it mildly-a fatal design flaw." He had used his album covers to encourage his fans to register to vote, and throughout 1988, he had registration booths at his concerts. He even considered running for president of the United States as an independent." There's a lot of people in these comments that seem to think Frank would be on their side. Those people are wrong.

Wait, Frank Zappa is 25? He looks like he's in his 40s

Zappa saw it coming.

Damn, Frank was spot on. It can (and did) happen here.

Morality in terms of behaviour and not theology. Good, that's why there is no morality in homosexual behaviour...

Musk currently is surprised he can't appease his MAGA buddies, well it didn't work with fascists back in the 1930s either. How could Musk be as bright as many believed, when he couldn't read the signs on the wall. Not like during the campaign we haven't seen what MAGA was about. They told us their intentions equally with project 2025 and the MSG rally, deporting millions of people and yet Musk gave it his all to get these wannabe NAZIs elected. Reminds me rather of the brits falling for brexit promises only to find out later they got fucked. Just that Musked paid for getting fucked, after it was told to him he would be and now he is and is all surprised it happened to him ^^ what a tool.

amazing;y fresh

And here's why that's a good thing!

0:18 the way he said “Tom!” here set my gaydar off. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was in the closet. There were lots of closeted men among bigoted Christians in those days.

… And here we are.
