You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train

[00:20.41] (You don't know what I know

[00:24.87] you can't see the spreading state

[00:30.63] Of deception, I am cruel to myself

[00:36.64] things will never be the same)

[00:46.13] (I will hold my silence like a weapon in my hand

[00:56.12] If I used it I would murder myself

[01:01.63] You could never understand)

[01:08.67] Columbus came ashore

[01:10.18] greeted with nothing but niceness

[01:11.42] Sailing west in attempt to find gold and spices

[01:14.44] Dominated by the popes in frenzy for ices

[01:16.89] The Catholic church expelled Jews

[01:18.89] and claimed it was righteous

[01:19.89] The first man to see land would get a reward

[01:22.90] And get a yearly pension for life clearly from God

[01:25.64] A young sailor saw land said, "We isn't far"

[01:28.40] Columbus lied, said he saw it the evening before

[01:31.42] They touched ground, they were greeted by the Arawak

[01:33.89] Columbus had them locked up as prisoners

[01:35.67] in an hour flat

[01:36.92] He wanted to find their source of gold and that was that

[01:39.64] And when they thought that wasn't fair

[01:41.65] then he stabbed their back

[01:42.89] When there was no more gold he took slaves instead

[01:45.68] And left a quarter million Indians in Haiti dead

[01:48.68] The men died in mines, the women died at work

[01:51.40] The children died from lack of milk

[01:53.15] and they died in the dirt

[01:54.41] They were just taking advantage of a passive people

[01:56.90] They were just being the savages of massive evil

[01:59.91] That's the church work, that's the path of massive ego

[02:02.68] That's the blood of Abraham

[02:04.40] being stabbed by the steeple

[02:05.89] In 1619 they were patiently waiting

[02:08.66] For a ship that carried slaves

[02:10.16] that was changing the nation

[02:11.67] The white man was a cannibal praying to Satan

[02:14.15] Hatred contempt a pity of patronization

[02:17.15] That's the corner stone everything racism based in

[02:20.16] The African had a more advanced civilization

[02:22.91] Black was slave, master was white, rationalization

[02:25.65] 50 million dead, that's Western civilization

[02:29.02] At first they appeared in the North

[02:31.77] And they were helpless in the face of superior force

[02:34.54] And all of them were chained together

[02:36.02] they really was lost

[02:37.27] Racism isn't natural it's merely divorce

[02:40.03] Before the slave trade black was considered distasteful

[02:43.06] By the Oxford dictionary, I find it disgraceful

[02:46.02] It's not a natural tendency to be bitter and hateful

[02:48.52] It's the natural enemy of the critical staple

[02:51.52] Slavery grew as the plantation system grew

[02:54.52] The reason for that's kinda easily traceable

[02:56.77] Society of helpless dependence was capable

[03:00.02] Of saying, "Fuck a slave master, you're in slavery too"

[03:02.78] Seven slaves were put to death for murdering master

[03:05.76] Fear of slave revolt had them developing faster

[03:08.53] You a cataline killer, ineloquent bastard

[03:11.53] I would burn the white man while smelling the ashes

[03:14.28] From time to time white man was part of the resistance

[03:17.06] White indentured servants wanted no part of the system

[03:19.79] King Philip's War showed that if people would listen

[03:22.79] That they can

[03:23.32] maybe break the complex chain of oppression

[03:25.80] Tyranny is tyranny, but that's a concession

[03:28.56] But the women they was treated like that of possessions

[03:31.56] Black women had it worse cause they was abused

[03:34.29] That's the white justification of Aryan blues

[03:37.28] The next move was to dominate the Mexicans

[03:39.55] James Polk dominated them like they was next of kin

[03:42.79] He sent Colonel Cross to lie to them and let them in

[03:45.54] 11 days later, his skull was crushed, so message sent

[03:48.53] "We take nothing by conquest, " that was the mantra

[03:51.31] The military wasn't human, they was just monsters

[03:54.30] Henry David Thoreau refused to pay his taxes

[03:57.33] Denounced the Mexican War and got locked in shackles

[04:00.04] The twentieth century opened, anger reemerged

[04:02.55] Reality of ordinary life was being heard

[04:05.56] Anarchists and feminists came from factory work

[04:08.29] Communism, socialism seemed to be re-birthed

[04:11.55] "War is the health of the state" is what Bourne said

[04:14.31] And if you was born around that time you was born dead

[04:17.03] The Espionage Act had people confused

[04:19.79] Cause it was double talk

[04:21.04] and they didn't know how it'd be used

[04:23.04] Supposedly it was an act against spying

[04:25.33] Dubois knew that that was bullshit and they was lying

[04:28.79] Charles Schenck was arrested in Philadelphia

[04:31.06] For printing and distributing leaflets

[04:32.57] cause they was helping ya

[04:34.32] He was indicted, tried and then found guilty

[04:36.83] And spent six months in jail, don't that sound silly?

[04:40.04] Had his freedom taken away by his own nation

[04:42.57] But there's a lesson, do not submit to intimidation

[04:45.56] The act still exists today and this shit is real

[04:48.54] Supposedly Kennedy tried to have that shit appealed

[04:51.30] Eugene Debs did ten years for no purpose

[04:54.02] He obstructed the recruiting and enlistment service

[04:57.05] The post office started taking mail privileges

[04:59.81] Of magazines who printed anti-war sentiments

[05:02.78] A Socialist named Fairchild had it right

[05:05.58] He said that "they can shoot me

[05:07.05] but they can't make me fight"

[05:08.54] They sentenced him to a year in jail

[05:10.55] and that was reckless

[05:11.31] 65, 000 men, conscientious objectors

[05:14.54] They were sent to army bases to work there

[05:17.07] They were treated sadistically and were hurt there

[05:20.05] They were strangled with the hemp rope til they collapsed

[05:22.54] And officers punched they stomach and they lower back

[05:25.80] A garden hose was placed on they face with a nozzle

[05:28.30] About six inches from them so they couldn't swallow

[05:31.55] The war ended in nineteen hundred and eighteen (1918)

[05:34.04] The government was just trying to wipe the slate clean

[05:37.10] Hemingway wrote Farewell to Arms

[05:39.54] Dalton Trumbo wrote Johnny Got His Gun

[05:42.85] The war was over but they didn't learn they lesson

[05:45.56] Twin tactics of control, reform and repression

[05:48.54] The patriotic fervor of war had been invoked

[05:51.54] That's why the country that you live in is a Fucking Joke!

[05:55.79] You cannot be neutral on a moving train

[06:00.32] This is a story about the lies that your teacher told you

[06:04.55] This is real actual factual

[06:10.11] No lies in the whole record

[06:13.62] If you don't believe me look it up

[06:16.33] I'm trying to share the shit that I learned with y'all

[06:21.11] Do the knowledge

[06:23.12] Your government does not care about you

[06:27.33] The people in power do not care about you

[06:30.84] Understand that

[06:32.87] Power to the people
