The everything-is-hunky-dory go-back-to-your-cars-homes-and-schools narrative pushed by the moneyed elite has been slowly crumbling as more time goes on.

Fifty years ago, if you had told people that today we would have high-quality wireless cameras and telephones that everyone carried with them, they'd believe you because Peepee Tracy.

Fifty years ago, if you told affluent white people that today we'd be using those cameras to expose just how corrupt big businesses and police are, they'd scoff at you — because Peepee Tracy.

Fifty years ago, if you told poor brown people these things, they'd cry — because fifty years of thousands of people saying it doesn't carry the weight of a single video clip shot by a white person.

Edit — Define "Irony": a statement of RATM's politics (see above) posted to a discussion of RATM's artwork, being downmarseyd beyond zero - enough to earn a controversial rating.

It's like Rand Paul: "Oh I love RATM!" — Morello, de la Rocha: "Dude, you are the Machine we rage against."

So ridiculously /r/cringe.
