    All I know is that my son loves you, and I never listened to metal until my son was 14 and I had to listen to be on an even level with him. This is the first metal song that Ive ever listened to and the first time that I ever listen to metal was with him, and this song made me be able to tolerate metal. Sometimes when I miss him, I listen to it. Like today..... thanks Serj

    "War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes." ― (Two-time Congressional Medal of Honor recipient) Smedley D. Butler

    It's fascinating how Serj's message against Corporacracy is being absorbed into the very system he criticizes, and becomes "commodified", a product ready for consumption in a market based economy. He is featured on TH-cam(owned by Google corporation) and is apparently sponsored by Warner Brothers, also a corporate entity. I love Serj's music and the powerful messages he emphasizes with such passionate words, but it feels that the message is being drowned in the overall noise of the "system", Media's overwhelming output of information that desensitizes us to the point that we lose the ability to discern between a very important message and an empty blabber, therefore we all hear the message but no one does anything about it.

    • @batkomahnoX100
      @batkomahnoX100 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      +fanzeldadaniel Yes, but we need a certain critical mass of people to "get" the message in order to make it truly effective. How do you turn "Unthinking majority" into a "thinking" one? How do you take the power from the Elite class who are in charge of all the important decisions and give it to the masses? How do you teach the people to see the difference between something valuable and garbage? And all this needs to be accomplished while Mass Media is perfecting the ways of dumbing down the population

      Freemind Thinker I really don't know. The only thing that I can tell you is that people revolt when they're literally starving; from the French revolution to the worker's protests, that majority did something because they didn't have nothing to eat or they ate very poorly. Right now is a different picture we are quite comfortable with our current situation even when there are few individuals that are disgustingly rich and we live our lives in debt but hey at least we are not starving... perhaps If we try to show to other people, friends and family the wrongs of our world they could reflect that's my take on the issue.

      Corporatism =/= capitalism. True capitalism is possible only in anarchocapitalism. You can't say "there is free market" when the government has monopoly on violence. Currently we have more or less enslaved market.

    Serj Tankian is denuncing much more than war itself.
    In the title (not only in the title though, in the refrain too), he clearly denunces occidental peoples which don't have any opinion in politics, so they can be manipulated as hell ; and that's why there's atrocities like war.

    I can see the relation to Tool's "Right In Two" mv... personally, that one's always been and still will be my favorite, simply due to the sheer complexity and lengthy elaboration of the system as a whole. This definitely seems to fit right up the same alley, though, considering the message being relayed. Props on the music video, Serj!
    P.S. you kinda sound like A System of a Down (unless it actually is the same singer), which is a compliment btw because I like them too haha
