the richest person in the world went out of his way to take food out of the mouths of the poorest people on earth, to make sure millions of children die of easily preventable diseases, to force HIV positive mothers to pass it on to their babies etc etc
such an indictment of society that we created the conditions for one individual to accumulate such incomprehensible wealth that he can buy media platforms and government appointments with his pocket change while so many people here and around the world can’t meet theirbasic needs
holy shit thank you @Skrillex
i made this remix as just a fun edit for my holiday remix pack last December… to see the support it’s gotten so far is absolutely WILD. this dude’s music started it all for me over a decade ago. eternally grateful 🫶
opening TikTok, pressing the + icon to create a new post, and immediately being presented with the most haunting angle of your face possible is an incredibly humbling experience. one might even say too humbling
My current theory on why remix/edit culture is so hot right now is that the musical zeitgeist gravitates towards nostalgia when western optimism is at an all time low - when the future seems bleak, we seek comfort in familiarity.
