🚨 BREAKING 🚨

One of Glasgow’s most prominent bar owners has *sacked * the chair of @GlasgowUnite days after he asked for time-off for @ScottishTUC & @unitetheunion youth conferences. No warning, disciplinary or representative.

This is trade union victimisation pure & simple.

@kieran_hurley Kendrick particularly disappointing. Guys just throwing drake about for a laugh in a fight that seems totally pointless. Guitar music long been walking a path towards saying nothing but hip hop tends to be a bit better.

… they are all too powerful to be held accountable. So whatever they do is “right” because of their “might”. The powerful do what they want, then tell you they played by the rules or that the rules didn’t matter anyway. I wish the people had the power to change that.

[Declan Welsh & The Decadent West @DeclanWelsh]

There’s 120k people who think it’s a good point to “hmm but maybe sometimes it’s right to oppress people? 🤔”

The internet does an incredible job of making people feel confident in saying things that would get you laughed out of a first year history tutorial.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The axiomatic error undermining much of Western Civilization is “weak makes right”.

If someone accepts, explicitly or implicitly, that the oppressed are always the good guys, then the natural conclusion is that the strong are the bad guys.

[Declan Welsh & The Decadent West @DeclanWelsh]

*to go

Also the entire premise is flawed. Might makes right isn’t bad to the left because of all power is inherently bad. Socialists want to sieze power. It’s a counter to the lie that we live in a rules based order. Israel, USA, Russia have broken every international law…

I’m not sure if that is a Good Thing for the kind of music we’ll get, as well as for the climate the artists have to exist in. We’re going to have songs about crypto soon is what I’m saying.

[Declan Welsh & The Decadent West @DeclanWelsh]

The arts needs to be funded by the government. This insecurity impacts both the artist and the art. If you already face nearly impossible odds to make any money, why would you risk it further by doing anything that challenges anyone?

For how many years have we all been told to make up what we can no longer earn from recordings by playing live… read this article https://t.co/fvhMpYLeUK

Basically, where the “desired traits” bit of a cv for professions musician used to say things like “creativity, dedication to the craft, charisma” now the main quality required to be a success is the same as any entrepreneur. “Graft, persistence, being able to secure funding”
