HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THIS?? Ren - Crucify Your Culture [First Time Reaction]

[@elkevera]

Came across the Pond, stayed for 21years as a legal working alien, was called the other N word numerous times (I guess we are not all equal living with the guilt of our fathers), went back across the Pond. I pay 100 euros in property tax for a home and 1800 sqmetres of land and we eat well on a budget thats considered under the poverty level in your country. My husband '(American vet) sees his German doctors for 35 euros a visit and his health has improved since we left 14 years ago.- So yes, Ren said the truth with every bar he put into this song.☮☮

[@justme1111]

You have done a lot of Ren music but I don't think you have reacted to half yet!! And it's ALL gold, no matter how far back you go!

[@Hexenkind1]

This one is basically Money Game 2.5. Came out between 2 and 3 in 2020. Love it.

[@Emilie-one]

I remember back in the day when people could have civil conversations and even compromise. There is no compromising… we are all hyper polarized which shut down the Avenue to communicate civilly. I also remember when people didn’t really flaunt their politics. There weren’t signs in the lawn and flags on trucks and all that… You could know somebody for many years without knowing what their political affiliation was. I liked it then because we weren’t identifying ourselves by our politics. Politicians, don’t care about you. Left or right. The lobbyists, big corporations and the rich control everything. The working man is just a cog in a wheel to make the rich richer.

[@kellyt5341]

💯..... 👏

[@AngB517]

And we once again just need people to accept that all politicians lie, cheat, and steal. it's not that easy I know, my family is literally fractured into pieces. I see yard signs and such, the only one I like (besides mine) is the QR code for the Brooklyn Library Unbanned Books section. a teacher had it in her class, only said that it was available, gave no political stance, and left it up to the kids and their parents. . . they suspended her for "pushing her agenda" she pretty much said if by agenda you mean getting more kids reading then yeah!!! my yard sign is for *my Daddy's MC: Downed Bikers Assoc.* I miss the civility, Emilie-one, the only time I get that is when I talk to my very opposite of me in almost every way husband. 25 years ago, we agreed to disagree while still talking about things with respect. 2020 was the first time he had ever voted (he wasn't allowed to register when he turned 18 due to religion).

[@sammyd8860]

50% of USA's wealth is owned by 1% of the population. 70% of USA's wealth is owned by 10% of the population. Those levels of inequality, within the world's richest country, are unfair & unsustainable (IMO). USA ranks 106th out of 177 countries for Income Equality - not a statistic to be proud of (again IMO)

[@MySnottyattaC]

💚✌️

[@SandraP3796]

Totally agree 👍🏻

[@PippaHinchleyComedy]

Oh Cliff Cliff Cliff. There's a good few you haven't checked out! Don't see these in your play list: Life Is Funny; Dear God; Eden; Lost All Faith; the Jam sessions w/ Molly; Freckled Angels; his Elvis cover.... 😊 Unless just not in your playlist?❤

On top of him just spitting facts as usual - this song f*kn SLAPS ❤️‍🔥😂

One of my favorites, Lol how many times have we all said that.

[@maddmd9171]

Every Ren song makes me think, and I love it.

You've missed a lot of old Ren songs please react to Dear God by him it's a beautiful song ❤️❤️❤️

I’ve got you bud. Nice to see you around 😊

[@tahinia888]

[@berniewatts5028]

The song was truth. But the best thing about this video was your, take, on how if you’re treated like an animal, you act like an animal. MONEY MONEY MONEY. It’s not bad when you do good with it. I have children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, so I never give up hope for a better loving future for them ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 👵🏼 Gmaw. Much love AOD

[@iamsquatty]

Ive always thought of this one as in the same family of the money game series, now along with money ties. Love this one, so many facts being said as only ren can say them 😁🥹💜

[@Goddzi]

One of my favourite Ren tracks! I consider it to be Money Game part zero. He even uses the line about greed he says at the end of Seven Sins. Love it ❤ Ren has changed the way I think about money and possessions. Advertising no longer works on me. Thanks, Ren ❤

[@CalvinHart-dv8gv]

This is Money Game 2.5 😊

[@paulinethomas7676]

Thanks so much for doing this Crucify Your Culture, it seems to get overlooked by many Reactors. Ren's politics align with mine on all levels, so I love this tune.

[@kellyt5341]

💯

[@DonnaPoynton.]

Thanks Cliff ❤❤ I never realised you hadn’t done this one ❤

[@optimistinmyprime]

this ones a sleeper 🔥🔥🔥

[@1empyrean]

I've always liked the flow used in this song.

[@Shiroar]

There are a lot of songs down the rabbit hole and all are worth checking out. Even if he releases them as “demos” and makes me question what the word means cause I thought it was sort of equivalent to rough sketches and that is not what he is giving us 😅

[@cathywethington5913]

Even some of his really early stuff with Trick the Fox are deep. Living Room Poetry is on my playlist and there's another where he talks about the meaning of life (I can't remember the name right now)

[@anthonyizard]

Hi cliff, great reaction from you bro, this is a great track and a definite conversation piece, I agree with it all, but their are those who will call us a conspiracy theorist, all the best Anthony from England.

[@kellyt5341]

For about 6 months than it ends up true...almost every one of them. 😉

[@sunshynff]

Great reaction! I didn't think there were any Ren songs you hadn't done yet. I don't think people are disappearing or dying because of discovering something better that the combustion engine, maybe their patents are being bought out by the govt, and shady stuff like that, and I know they're not being killed for medical breakthroughs. The line about Tesla and the argument for AC or DC was because Tesla discovered DC electricity while working for Edison, who discovered AC electricity. They had a falling out, Tesla started peddling his DC version of electricity to some big companies, and Edison didn't care for that. Edison was also well known, respected and wealthy at the time, so he started a smear campaign against Tesla, we're talking major mud slinging, he actually electrocuted a live cow with so much DC current that it exploded, and then told people that only happens with DC current electricity. That is why nationwide AC current is what's on all the poles that come into our house, and there are electric companies named "Edison", and why Tesla died destitute and penniless. Oh, and they found a cure for cancer, it's suppose to be ready for human trials by 2030. Speaking of lists, in 2023, the U.S. dropped to 33rd out of 192 countries on the Human Freedom Index Scale. Also in 2022 and 2023 more U.S. citizens officially emigrated to Mexico, than Mexican citizens immigrated to the U.S., most of the recent arrivals at our Southern border are from south of Mexico in Central and South America, also from countries that the U.S. totally ruined their economy and/or govt. in the past. Mexico city is booming with high paying jobs in the Tech space too, and Mexico City is in Central Mexico, everything south of them is pretty safe, North of Mexico City there's very few roads or public transportation, it's all dotted with small towns, and that is cartel country, no bueno! ✌💚

[@sammyd8860]

Cliff, here are some other rankings where USA stands in the world, which may surprise you. 24th for Transparency out of 180 countries (2023 Corruption Perceptions Index), 41st for Civil Justice out of 139 countries (2021 World Justice Project), 43rd for Gender Equality out of 146 countries (2023 World Economic Forum), 55th for Racial Equality out of 89 countries (US News 2024) 106th for Income Equality out of 177 countries (2024 World Population Review). But you rate highly for the number of death penalty executions : 5th highest behind China, Iran, Saudi Arabia & Somalia (2023 Amnesty International report)

[@coldred9639]

Lies and greed making the Country I LOVE into the land of the enslaved. Action is Knowledge being used appropriately

[@Im_still_standing63]

I hate what we've become - or probably I'm just waking up to what we've always been. What scares me and saddens me the most is the world that exists for my children and grandchildren, and all the earth's children. I feel like it's a hell hole and it's depressing af. I know there is still beauty in the world, and good people and amazing experiences to be had. But I don't have enough money to do a lot of those things. I'm disabled, with mental illness and autoimmune disease, and live off of disability, so barely have enough money to get by. I do the best I can to find joy in the little things, but in this greedy world we live in it makes it easy to become cynical. MONEY. It really does make the world go round.

[@Little_Alien_Lost]

My anti-government anthem! I love this song! You're so right about what happens when you get locked up. I can fully relate to what you said about being treated like animals. It was a very long time ago, for me. About 25 years ago now. It's a very bizarre experience the first time. They don't treat "first time offenders" any differently than "career criminals" in prison. They don't explain how things work. Nobody tells you the rules. You just have to figure it out and survive. I was only in prison for 2 months. After I had been out for awhile and the people around me became more comfortable with talking about it, I learned that they had all come to agree that I was "meaner" and had "a shorter fuse" when I came home. There's no way to explain it to someone who hasn't experienced it. You hit the nail on the head. I was treated like an animal and I became more feral. I don't know if I ever really turned my "fight or flight" response off after the incarceration. It's a really bad system for attempting to correct bad behavior. Unnecessarily cruel.

[@kellyt5341]

In the US or Europe? The 2 months.

[@Little_Alien_Lost]

@@kellyt5341 ~ US

[@Little_Alien_Lost]

@@kellyt5341 ~ I can already see where this question is going and I am absolutely not having this argument. It was in the US, and in one of the richest states in the country. My experience was extremely easy compared to many other places. I'm not trying to have a competition over who has it worse. I'm well aware that most prisons are far more terrifying than my own experience. This is not a contest to see who has it worse. Find someone else to argue with. That is not what I came here for.

[@kellyt5341]

@@Little_Alien_Lost No contest here at all. I can't always tell which Ren fans are from the UK or US...and the others places sprinkled around. Just wondering where you did your time. No judgement here. It couldn't be to bad for 2 months time. Those short stays (2 months) usually follow up with a lot more (probation time), fines, penalties, etc. That is the main conclusion when it's said and done...the government entity removes as much money as it can from you. 😌

[@MarkCosgrove-b3p]

He got that rage against the machine vibe in this one.

[@EkkoBullie]

Honestly, I had the same feel!

[@dpkast]

Cliff, I just spent two solid days going through your whole Ren playlist, among other reactions you've done. You've become one of my favorite reactors because I can tell that your care and concern are sincere. Honesty, sincerity, integrity, empathy-these are the qualities I value most, and I can see them in you. Keep being you and doing what you do. Now I have to go thumb through the rest of your catalog.

[@StefanVillkatt]

Thank you for reacting and telling, Cliff.

[@cherylwitter5038]

Love this song🔥❤️✌️

[@Lisdodde]

I liked the Thomas the tank engine reference (fat controller) because I found the morals underlying the stories so creepy when my sons watched it for a while. Later I learned the stories were written by a misanthropic repressed minister or something, and it made more sense. It’s bloody hard to find stories for children whose morals you’d actually like to convey to them and that they would like to hear too, for as far as you still have some influence over what they consume as they get older…

[@CaptainTenille]

YASSSS one of my fav Ren tracks! Insta-clicked this reaction and liked it before even watching!

[@celtzen]

What is so interesting with this one for me is that it's on Demos 2 from 2020- but it's just as applicable (if not more so) right _now_ I left the US in 1998 and only came back in 2020 to spend time with my Dad when he retired and if it wasn't for him I'd have never gotten back onto a trans-Atlantic flight. Everywhere is fubar at the moment but holy crap there is fubar and then there is political, social and economic sh*tshow where every choice is a bad one.

[@denalinde]

SO GLAD you did this one! It’s a perfect counterpoint to the craziness seemingly infecting everyone around us right now. 💜

Ah dude it's not as if you and your friends don't know how he hits more often than not! The Renesphere just keeps in giving ❤

[@MissMeKate]

As pertinent now as is was when he wrote it. More, even. The maternity 💀 rates in America are some of the worst in the Western world. And that could be about to get a whole lot worse. America has some wonderful aspects and more potential than almost anywhere, but the divide is so extreme now that it's pretty scary from the outside at the moment. I really hope there's a peaceful, sensible way forward to build on all the awesome things you guys have to offer the world. ❤
