But it is all about money...and when you try to change it everyone clings to their fucking money. We have this world because we choose to have this world. We did it. The best thing that could happen now is an asteroid fix the mistake.

[@yxcvmk]

@@cbriangilbert1978 I did not choose to do so! *I did NOT choose to be forced to pay protection money* to keep my roof (they call it property tax), or being extorted from part of my own fruits from my own labor (they call it income tax). I did not choose to forcefully pay a multitude for energy (Gasoline, etc) due to all the forced taxes. The list could go on. As long as gvmt. forced people to pay, as long "all is about money". Once the extortion stops, the society can change. Then, WE can by our own FREE WILL choose what we wish to support (eg. firefigters, peace officers, road maintenance, etc). And if we don't support it, we won't have it. This simple, as soon as there are no people willing to shoot, because they are told so, if one does not pay, what others enFORCE.

"Ода к радости"вызвала у людей радость.Я люблю это видео,ему несколько лет,и оно радует и меня.Люди играют,слушают,поют вместе с хором.Дети дирижируют,ребёнок на столбе тоже.Дочка у папы на плечах,старые,молодые слушают и улыбаются.Много счастья звучит вокруг. Это классика.Мне нравится рок и джаз,и босса Нова.Но классика проникает в душу.

Never a black componist was proteged, likely all the white classical componist have caused the death of black people and thus potentially black componist.

It is always the same, instant admiration, you forget until you hear music live, what a connecting point it is to humans! And the "Olde for Joy", as a veteran it even has a greater meaning and emotional response to hear out in the open, by real musicians, playing unmodified instruments,. Where crowd participation is involuntary, spontaneous, even in kids:) Should be done once a day, in every square in the world, to calm the beasts:) Beethoven' is smiling at this tribute:)
