The Woking Dead Come For Morrissey

By A. J. Rice

Morrissey, anti-establishment rock star, is ironically doomed to be eaten by the Left’s very own flesh eaters, because he just happens to like freedom.
A lifelong subversive rocker, Steven Patrick Morrissey – iconoclast rock star, radical vegan, and animal rights activist – has sworn off eating living things but is now doomed to be eaten by the “woke” European Left.

The woking dead should slow down if they’re capable of it. They’re about to lurch into French Revolution territory and take down one of their own.

Today’s woke mafia, essentially Maoist and French Revolutionary in character, runs its social media Reign of Terror against anyone who is insufficiently alive to its narrow, reactionary, and mostly ignorant view of the world. They understand no nuance. They ignore all context. What they do not understand, they smother to death.

You’ve probably seen headlines about Morrissey recently. You can’t read a music site without running across several hand-wringing articles about what an awful person Morrissey has become. They are going after Morrissey because he thinks thoughts the wokes don’t like.


His latest sin was wearing a “For Britain” pin on NBC’s The Tonight Show.

This crusade against Morrissey is tragi-comic.

He isn’t Ted Nugent, living on a Texas compound and hunting game with high-caliber rifles. He isn’t even Alice Cooper, who long ago became a Christian but keeps up the ghoul act on stage for his fans. He’s not Gene Simmons, who spent the 1970s and 80s dressed up as a devil and fostering the worst sorts of rumors about him to build his fan base but is a teary-eyed conservative American and Israeli patriot now.

Morrissey didn’t leave the left. The left left him.

Morrissey is and always has been a non-conformist.

He’s left wing, sexually fluid, subversive, iconoclastic, vegan, and an animal rights activist.

He was all that when he burst onto the punk rock and new wave scene back in the early 1980s, fronting edgy bands that were too hot for radio.

He did a cover of “I Want a Boy for My Birthday” – that was transgressively transsexual – in 1982. He named his major band “The Smiths” to celebrate “the ordinary folk” with an ordinary name. He questioned “Americanization” during the Reagan and Thatcher years. The Smiths went on to record subversive albums with names like The Queen is Dead – he’s born to Irish immigrants and a British subject – and songs like “Vicar in a Tutu,” “Frankly, Mr. Shankly,” “Meat is Murder”, and the band’s biggest hit, “Bigmouth Strikes Again.” That title headlines the woke music media’s most unimaginitive articles about him now. Morrissey says politically incorrect things. “Bigmouth Strikes Again!” Get it?

After The Smiths broke up, Morrissey continued on in songs like “Margaret on the Guillotine” – about Margaret Thatcher.

In other words, Morrissey was woke before most of you were even born. Colleges and universities started teaching courses about his lyrics. Will they any longer?

Morrissey’s big mouth is in trouble now because he isn’t a fan of unaccountable Eurocrats, or unrestricted immigration from the more reactionary parts of the Islamic world, and he isn’t afraid to say so. He supports Brexit. He likes being British. He opposes London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan as he wraps himself in the Union Jack.

He questions #MeToo, with the novel idea that due process is worth preserving. Morrissey questions authority just as he always has – but now he questions the left’s authority, to control speech and thought and de-platform and destroy anyone who disagrees with them.

He’s paying the price now that the revolution he pioneered has turned against him.

Merseyrail in Liverpool has pulled down posters advertising his latest record, California Son. That record is getting panned by the music press. Record stores, including Britain’s oldest and largest, are refusing to sell his music. Whatever happened to rock ‘n’ roll rebellion? His answer: “It’s very Third Reich, isn’t it?”

He’s still available on Amazon, but for how long?

The woking dead are so narrow-minded and unable to separate the man from his art they say they can’t listen to any of Morrissey’s music anymore.

Conservatives have had to make this separation for decades, as most musicians and actors bash everything we believe in and denounce us as -phobes and racists of every kind. There’s nothing so predictably left as one of today’s rock idols appearing on Jimmy Fallon. But we watch and we listen and let the art stand on its own. So, anti-Morrissey wokes – welcome to our world. And grow up. Conservatives who came of age in Morrissey’s heyday with the Smiths enjoyed his wickedly funny and crafty lyrics, despite his politics at the time.

Nor has the snowflake left stopped to ponder why Morrissey takes the stands he’s taking now.


He believes in individual freedom of thought and expression, as the left once claimed to. He believes in accountable government that responds to the people it’s supposed to serve, as the left once claimed to. He believes in the creative arts, as the left once claimed to. He sees Great Britain as a protector of these

Many of the uncounted immigrants from the Islamic world, whom the wokes unquestioningly support, believe in none of those things. They march through the streets of London toting signs saying “Behead those who insult Mohammed,” and too often they act on that – killing the Charlie Hebdo satirists in France and a soldier on the streets of London itself, and beheading journalists and hikers from Afghanistan to Syria to Morocco.

In America, Somali refugee turned Democrat Congresswoman Ilhan Omar regularly trashes the nation that generously took her in, and the left applaud her for it. The wokes have become a toxic cocktail of indulgence, ignorance and intolerance – and while they don’t see that, Morrissey does.

Morrissey sees the wokes and the left as weak on human freedom because they are. He sees them as unappreciative of living in the West because they are. The left is making alliances with ever more radical and reactionary elements including old-line communists and radical Islamists.

The left is increasingly authoritarian and dismissive of everyday concerns that animate “the Smiths” of the world. They care much more about intersectionality than jobs and taxes. They despise men like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson despite the freedoms they won for us, because they were human and men of their times.

Morrissey ought to serve as an object lesson for anyone on the left today. Question them and, no matter what left-wing causes you’ve advocated and for how many decades you’ve advocated them, they will turn on you and they will cast you out or cannibalize you.

But object lessons require some awareness of facts beyond wokeness. So Morrissey’s career demise, if it comes to that, will happen in vain. The woke revolutionaries will have their Robespierre, dead as far his career is concerned, and will eventually all turn on and devour each other."

Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam are greatly misunderstood. If you understand what they are about, it's not as crazy as it might seem at first.

Nation of Islam are separatists and one of their primary goals is to get blacks to stop being dependent on white people. They are not asking for reparations. They want their own separate nation. Not re-segregation but their own separate country. And they are also anti-race mixing and ultra-woke on Jews.

When you consider that, it's not surprising that the KKK and the Nation of Islam would have some overlapping interests. The KKK would LIKE blacks to be less dependent on whites. They also have mutual enemies in the government (particularly the FBI).

If I were born black, I would probably be a follower of Farrakhan.

Have they ever thought about buying a plane ticket and going back to Africa voluntarily?
 
No, you apparently don't understand black nationalism.
Angela Davis was not a nationalist. She was a communist. Communists by definition are not nationalists. Communism is the OPPOSITE of nationalism.

The good reverend Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam are black nationalists and they are racist as f***. There have long been cordial relations between white nationalists and the Nation of Islam.

Like the time George Lincoln Rockwell of the American Nazi party spoke at a Nation of Islam meeting.

Or the time when Mohammad Ali, as a representative of the Nation of Islam, spoke at a Ku Klux Klan rally.


If anything, the communist Black Panthers (who Angela Davis was a part of) were a competing brand to the black nationalism of the Nation of Islam. REAL black nationalists consider communism a white/Jewish thing.


Socialism tries to sneak in everywhere and is represented by so many various political groups out there. But lefties cannot read cause they for some reason are blind to the word socialism in national socialism.

I often find that socialists have a very personal idea of what socialism is that does not match the real socialism at all. They see socialism as some kind of safety net they can use and take advantage of when they fail in life over and over again.

The nazis of today are more aware of that and how socialism scares away a lot of people that would otherwise back them. There is a need for a new right wing identity and ideology. The germans tried and failed and have in many ways been overrated historically for achievements that got them nowhere.

They are not the master race and never have been. A country full of rat eyes and black hair and weird sexuality and even their taste in food is questionable. Germans are the rats of Europe.
 
No. The left want people out of women’s bodies and out of people’s bedrooms. Want equal protection for all people, including gays and those of colour. Living wages. Healthcare. Social safety nets. Big business out of elections. Foreign influence out of elections.

It’s that simple.

:rolleyes:

paid by the non left while you all soak in beer in your lazy chairs.:lbf:

nothing about work as expected.:straightface:


Moz already is subsidizing the 3 lawnmowers.o_O
