The indie scene will save art and the freedom of information

If Articles 11 and 13 go through the indie scene is gonna explode because word-of-mouth, chatrooms and local communities are gonna be how you hear about stuff

when will people realize, that if you give attention to things you hate, you bring attention to it, and then people who dislike you will support it just out of spite for you, and then other people will see it

its best to ignore it in the hopes no one else likes it and it fades from view

i remember when catcher in the rye was considered banned

kids would go out of their way to find it just because it was banned

The other thing is that censorship works only if people are willing to take part in it. As you said- back then people were not willing to do that so all atemps failed

and its a boring af book.

So yeah

It's like

Suppression just makes the communities you're trying to eradicate closer

Underground music is gonna absolutely blow up, which I'm excited for as an up-and-coming rock vocalist lmao

rock became mainstream and sort of died off.

need to bring back the old parents calling it satans music, make it cool again

oh wait, we have SJWs to call it bigot's music

My whole schtick with rock is like, it's lost its spirit nowadays

Most people who play rock that I've met in the Birmingham scene at least are all like

"I wanna be famous", "I want people to notice me"

Rock was about authenticity, being free to be who you are, embracing that outside of the mainstream

Purposeful counterculture to prove a point

It was intellectual, in some ways poetically and in some ways scholarly

It's all stoners and cokeheads, no substance

They like the scene and image but don't understand what it truly is

And do what you like, be free, that's the point of rock, but... be authentic

Stop being fake, stop focusing on the money

That's why rock died

Grunge made everyone too sad to care

Then everyone got stoned or OD'd

Now in my generation of rock, you have idiot anarchists, emos who aren't saying anything, or drugged-up posers. No inbetween, no exception, except POSSIBLY Greta Van Fleet who are actually very talented, and indie rockers who get ignored

And that's what I wanna do. Grab the world by the balls and tell em straight, "Fuck you, I reject what you're forcing me to be and do and say". These sons of bitches can play rock til the day they die but they'll never be rockstars, yknow?

I don't wanna play rock, I wanna be a rockstar. And that's what a rockstar was

Someone who was told their place and said "No"

/rant

TLDR Rockers stopped standing for freedom and started being illogical ideologues, apathetic wasters or sellout bitches. Not me

you know what is funny? i used to listen to a punk band that used to talk about people in real need, like farmers fucked over by corporate farms and the subsidies the government gives them, or poor people having trouble finding work.

used to cover everyone in the shit (Although they still had a pretty activist vibe)

but in the recent years and with trump elected, they joined the more fuck trump side and i'm just like "you are saying fuck you to the people you used to claim you wanted to help, wtf?"

They're sellout lefty crybabies with no principles, from the sounds of things

I don't agree with a lot of what Trump does

I think his denial of climate change is very startling

Or at least, his cabinet's

well a member or two were members of PETA so... lmao

But he did amazing for industry like he promised

LOL

Peta are fucking horrendous

they are

"we are for animals!"
>owns the largest number of kill shelters
"FREE THE ANIMALS"
>cause mass death of the freed animals or an ecological disaster

Those feels when you save animals by killing them so they can't die

to be fair, I don't blame some of these people because they would hear all this BS from Alarmist who would take the actual studies which would say like "in 100 years, this will happen" and then turn around an say "IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS WE ARE ALL GONNA DIE!"

Punk is a bunch of sissies nowadays, for the most part

Angry confused teenagers complaining about what they *think* is happening

to be fair, that has been most of punk for a long time, there is just less of the bands where what they think is happening and what is happening lined up

I'm gonna break the mold, be it core punk or a punk message through metal

If I sound overly ambitious, well, I gotta be, it's music

I wanna be the right-wing, educated equivalent of Rage Against The Machine

find a swede to produce your music

I need a band who aren't SJWs or shitheads first

i'm sure there will be plenty jumping ship soon

Hell, I just need a guitarist, bassist and drummer who can do what they're told

As diva as that sounds

Leftist musicians are quite undisciplined unless they're SJW or genuinely passionate over music, I've found, at least at my age

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvhd8PVCxtU

My last band I was with for a year and you know what we learned over the space of a year?

Half of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica

And then an Iron Maiden song outside of my range

So I couldn't sing it

Over a *year*

I mean I'm excited for all the punk music I can write about this but I am heartbroken and astonished

Thanks for keeping us informed @Atkins

Fuck, brb, need ti check how exactly one apply for a visa...

At least this gives people a good reason to support hard brexit.

It's like this every single time with europe and canada.

Everyone acknowledges it's a disaster. It passes.

Fucking boomers, every fucking time.

I was gonna marry my girlfriend in a few years once we had enough money and we'd finished our degrees, but I genuinely might marry her next year while she's on holiday here and flee to the USA

will they be affected in time to get a hard brexit

Voss is a rat

be sure to avoid ICE, we will try and deport you

The best you can hope for now, is for a big posterchild of justice to come out of this sooner rather than later.

I'm Irish with a British passport, ICE won't look twice at me

Another Count Dankula that the media can only lie about, while average citizens see the truth.

naw, you don't understand, the left won't protect you then

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHwaA3fMPgc

I need freedom god damn it

Babel is so cool as a thing.

It's a shame religion has made it... lame.

Don't worry I won't come to the USA until I can actually contribute to the country

I will not be a leech on a country I admire

Sad part is that most european citizen doesnt give a fuck about EU parliament

As well as laws that is being pushed thru it

"we just wanted to play games, but you fucked with us and now we are here"

Hey so what do you guys think will happen? Will international online companies comply or pull out?

Facebook will comply, and perhaps Google. I don't think smaller companies are going to be able to.

This legislation seems to have been created with the capabilities of the biggest firms in mind, and the idea of bullying smaller firms into surrendering control over content to the biggest firms.

If you run a phpBB forum, you can't possibly identify AND remove copyrighted material within one hour.

if you have a closed forum it cant be reported

So they'll have to get some sort of plugin that outsources the burden of identifying copyrighted material to some massive firm with a huge AI.

Google has bots that crawl the internet for copyrighted material.

watch even google get fucked over

willing to bet the EU will not be happy with youtubes system

No Google already has a turnkey solution for this.

they want to destroy the open internet

and the open discource

only allowed speech will be legal

enjoy europeans

enjoy near everyone

fuck, say goodbye to videogame mods

But yeah ^ the big concern would be once the infrastructure is in place this would be worse than 1984's telescreens for thought policing.

Fuck

It appears Article 11 passed as well. Smaller firms can't possibly pay per link.

This solidifies big tech monopoly.

thought dank said all other articles failed

It's a massive burden on any start-up to comply with this nonsense, moral issues aside.

oh, almost all

let me get link

can like the US file a lawsuit against the EU for this if it affects too many Americans?

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/09/12/eu-lawmakers-pass-controversial-digital-copyright-law.html

This is where corporations will run the world be prepared guys at least we will have some cyberpunk 2077 or weyland yutani

too bad this doesn't affect fox and friends or else we could get trump to threaten war

As long as america does this same, this horseshit cannot possibly be permanent.

Too much envy.

wait.. it passed.... hoo boy

Funeral for free speech in Talk Room 1 lol

*2

Yeah @Grenade123 i hope trump says something about it

trump needs to cut the money us is pumping into eu

So I wonder how this immediately affects Sargon's videos.

wew https://twitter.com/Nigel_Farage/status/1039836554020175872

Or.. is there a date where it comes into effect

Maybe the EU will collapse before implementation

Hopefully ^

The rest of the Eastern Block dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate EU

OH FUCK

I JUST HAD A THOUGHT

We know the EU is getting more authoritarian right?

What if the link tax is so much so that smaller countries find it increasingly expensive to actually run news networks

*and they set up centralised EU news channels*

i'm wondering if all the news orgs will find this doesn't benefit them like they thought.

and i wonder if that is the goal to make the EUPN

EU propaganda Network

I think so

So now Hungary case will go for a vote among EU countries leaders, i think Italy and Poland will block it

Thank fuck for Brexit, just gotta get out of the UK before the EU invades, woop woop

Unless they would decide to exlude Poland from voting

Time to learn German boiiiiiii

Ok so the EU just decided to kill the internet

Which would be master dick move, but also very smart move

EU already has state news

in the netherlands, the media is funded by the state

Yeah but it'd be more prominent

Like

thats like how the UK has the BBC

it will become the only thing

I'm saying collectivised EU news

@Dr.Wol also big black cock BBC

but imagine it not being run by the Netherlands, but the EU parliament.

dissent and oposing views is hate speech

i guess the nazis won ww2

Like Ireland is going through huge agricultural struggles rn, do you think a bunch of extra costs to run RTÉ News are gonna do any good?

Germany just can't help themselves can they

is like they never learned

So therefore RTÉ News may get replaced with an international EU news network

here its not just BBC

"this time it will work for sure"

virtually all tv media is state funded

Germany 🇩🇪 is the leader of the EU dis gun be “we wuz nazis and still ar”

fun part is they actually got France and the Netherlands on board this time

Lmao 😂 fuck

press F to pay respects for Europe

BBC seem generally opposed to Articles 11 and 13, at least publicly. Their article about the vote seems relatively negative about the outcome

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-45495550

Wait am I allowed to link things? Brb need to call the police and check

Well, article 11 gives some pretty negative incentives to sharing links to news media. If you have to pay a few bucks to link to a BBC article, you probably won't.

I would say that if you are paying for a TV license then you should be free to post from the BBC. But it's not down to the individual, it's the site that you are posting it on that has to pick up the cost. (I think)

Remember fellow UK citizens, report to the police if your neighbour is a meanie

Jesus christ though.

We are

Literally reaching near-1984 levels of oppressiveness

We'll get there

Dankula: "Article 13 passed and Boomers applauding"

This is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause

Can you help me find where we can see who voted which way in the EU parliment.

all right faggots

what was that VPN tim was shilling?

NordVPN?

If the company is physically located within the EU it's probably not going to help.

that'll do

I use expressvpn

virgin islands, eh

I'll take that one then. Hang on.

mesh nets

this is guna be cool as shit

Tim I can't believe you sold out and made a survival kit

I'm just now catching up...

I've had a busy few days

ive got a box of emergency rations, two boxes of MREs, and two cases of emergency food from MPS

I always seem to be ~20 hours behind on my vidoes

That's fair

Tim, it might be cool and fun for you. But the normies aren't going to want to jump through theses hopes. There'll grow up not knowing.

I'm south ontario, I'm gonna get soaked

Stay safe, lads

thiss torm is going to frucking kill a lot of people man, its going to linger and dump 40 inches

@Timcast buy a MSR filter

water is the limiting factor.

I have a small reverse osmosis resevoir

holds like 10 gallons and is always full

when the apocalypse happen gold will be worthless

dude, you could've scored big time points if you pulled a ration out of your beanie during that episode 😉 👉 👉

I remember watching the CNN ground footage of Harvey

lol

terrifying stuff

those guys are good at on the ground...Until they pestered some lady in a refuge shelter

until she snapped at them about how she's lost everything and to fuck off

on live cam

lmao

Lol I remember that

if it bleeds it leads but for fuck's sakes

CNN, have some heart.

emily is going to the hurricane

im 50/50

ive never been of the mindset that you need me to film rain

CNN has no heart, they profit from peoples losses by being able to report on it

like we get it, a storm is here

So Tim you're covering the death of freedom to thunderous applause in the EU right

or rather, the fact that we're now on the way

I'm happily safe in south texas

possibly

article 13 is complicated

my prediction

you know that every European commentator is about to shit out a million videos

If article 13 passes as bad as they make it sound

I'm gonna move into Tims beanie, its safer there

kids are going to start creating an alternative net space

you'll probably need some kind of license to be able to display or read from articles in your videos.
