Love Music Hate Racism
Love Music, Hate Racism… is it really the simple?
Let us consider some of the other possibilities..
1. Love Music, Love Racism
Nasty people can still have a gentle heart when it is melted by sweet sounds pouring through their ears.
Take Nick Griffin for example, prior to life on the acceptable edge of right-wing thuggery Nick was in a ukulele band. Coming from a working class family he entered grammar school on a music scholarship and proceeded to read Baroque music at Cambridge. He now denies all of this, but he also denies denying the holocaust, so can you really trust what he says?
2. Love Racism, Hate Music
The Afrikaans despise all forms of music. Their extreme protestant beliefsinclude the idea that music is the devils temptation. Terre’Blanche once killed a man for humming. But you cannot fault his Love Racism credentials.
3. Hate Music, Hate Racism
Some people just hate everything they will never be happy. In fact I would even suggest that a music loving racist would have a more fulfilling life than someone that can find no joy in anything.
4. Indifferent to Music and Racism
This category is unfortunately where the majority of the population finds themselves. More people voted for Susan Boyle than voted at the European elections. Susan Boyle lost and the BNP received 6% of the vote. General indifference all around.

I would consider myself as a man of the world…..Therefore. I accept all that is good and all that is bad. The question still is, what is, as what should never be.
This is a personal quest, one that only the individual can answer, therefore personal.
Morals can be set inexorably high in some( of low expierience & as a result questionable content) low in others opinion.( them of all expierience and of questionable content) Morals can be low yet high in others…….What am I saying….? -

Wow, Roger, I have no idea. Sounded cool for a second there…
As for music and racism, I see lots of irony in the love of music when that music is a symbol for disenfranchisement and it comes pouring from the speakers of the cars the teenagers in my privileged neighborhood drive. Sigh.
Nick Griffin isn’t the first hater to love music and art…Hitler applied to the Art Academy. -

The beauty of music is that it trancends racism and brings people together. Sure there might be differences in personal tastes, but music as an entity is a wonderful gift from whatever force created the universe to make this world more bearable.

“Music internationally, she will win racism. I am sure!” <= Definitely true
But unfortunately racism is guided by its music as well so we have to fight against this kind of music and spread the music that communicates peace and love even more.
