There are only a few more weeks left in the entry period during which views are counted. At this point, we have enough that I'm confident we should end up with a top 5 spot (especially since the views are only a small part and ultimately the band will be selecting the winners), but it never hurts to get a bit more views. (I swear this is the only time I will ever do this, lols)
Inspirational Crazy Talk - Matthew Silver Performance Art
"Love now; love, now." Sometimes there's no "sane" way to try and express some of the biggest things in life, imo, so fuck it, why not? He had good messages even if his wording was strange.
Noam Chomsky: The Anthropocene Period and its Challenges
I think what he has to say here is important, embed issues or not. It's worthy of bringing into the Sift for people's edification, so I'm just gonna jury nullify the fuck out of this one and cast an upvote and not a dead invocation.
Let's Grow Old Together... and Die at the Same Time
Dig the dual vox at the end a lot. From this one song, sounds like something of a mix of the Cure and Joy Division. I'll have to check out an album, any recommendation, @lucky760?

Russell Brand to Jon Snow; "Listen you, Let me Talk"
Everyone here saying "you can't call for revolution without the answer already in hand" is missing the point. If you come to people with an answer in hand, most of the time they will use their current political BELIEFS to decry your plan as impossible and shut down from the conversation all the same.
This whole "it's not broken, so don't fix it" nonsense doesn't work when it comes to our societal structures. We have poverty in all the modernized, rich nations still. How the fuck is that a thing? It needs to change, we need to change that. Recognizing that need for change comes first. After we've come together and said "hell yeah, we need to make this a real priority!," THEN we can start discussing potential answers.
When you still have a huge portion of society either drowned in garbage rhetoric they've been force-fed since youth ("America is the best! Drugs are evil!") or blindly ignorant of the problems because they've grown up fortunate enough to live away from poverty and violence, you have to bring attention to the fact that what we're doing isn't working first before you can agree that you need a revolution, before you can decide what that revolution would entail.
It sounds like what you're saying is "yes, we need to fix this shit," so instead of complaining about calling for revolution, how about you start figuring out how to impact attitudes and opinions of people around you about things that need to be fixed/change? This is the long and difficult part of the process, but it has to happen before anybody can really expect political action to occur, especially with how our societies roll these days.
