In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you

The evolution is NOT the material work only but work in the mind and heart of others, for others.
- that's the real work.... 🧠 ❤️Not just money.
Listening personally is missing...🔁 What goes around comes around.
⚠️ but...
🔂 What you're not doing also doesn't come around when you need...
Right now people protest but they run away from debate just their leaders !

I never read the proclamations of generals before battle, the speeches of fuehrers and prime ministers, the solidarity songs of public schools and left-wing political parties, national anthems, Temperance tracts, papal encyclicals and sermons against gambling and contraception, without seeming to hear in the background a chorus of raspberries from all the millions of common men to whom these high sentiments make no appeal.

And be careful about calling them Common People. Nobody wants to be called Common People, especially common people.
Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist

In each great revolutionary struggle the masses are led on by vague dreams of human brotherhood, and then, when the new ruling class is well established in power, they are thrust back into servitude. This is practically the whole of political history, as Burnham sees it. […] History consists of a series of swindles, in which the masses are first lured into revolt by the promise of Utopia, and then, when they have done their job, enslaved over again by the new masters.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1946-05), “Second Thoughts on James Burnham,” Polemic MagazineSourcing, notes: wist.info/orwell-george/14826/

Pulp llega a la cima de la fama y el éxito en 1995 con la publicación de Different Class, el que para muchos es el disco definitivo del britpop (parafraseo el articulo que compartí hace poco). Un álbum de letras profundas y melodías pegajosas y bailables. De ahí «Common People», un clásico generacional.

Going back to #Sheffield this weekend. My home city (on my dad's side). It's been a while. My #deedar accent is long gone after living away for so long, so I'm warming it up by listening to songs from the old country and singing them in the proper voice. (Getting #socialist fierced-up too.)
