Kneecap

[mightymoyes]

I expect the anti-'woke' brigade and free speech warriors are outraged by this censorship...

I love Kneecap. Not afraid to challenge the status quo no matter what is thrown at them. Also, great that they are trying to keep their native language alive. Long may they continue. The film is also excellent.

The amount of clowns who seem to be saying saying this as if punk isn’t inherently political and leftist is painful.

Idiots probably also think Rage Against the Machine are apolitical

What Israel is doing is beyond disgusting and it goes back so far and there is so much hate it is difficult to see an ending. Watched the Gaza programme on Channel 4 and nobody seemed to notice that two of the doctors had supported the Hamas raid. Doctors supporting the kidnap, rape and murder of jewish young people is disgusting as well.

All people deserve dignity, democracy, a reasonable living standard and a fair rule of law. This situation was created by the Balfour Declaration from our very own government which failed to consult the arab inhabitants.There are generations who know nothing but hate and fear.

Sorry, but i'm quite bored of these guys now

I see this Wembly gig is put on by Primary Talent International. They are owned by ICM partners, i did a quick googled about ICM partners and found' ICM Partners and Screenz, a joint venture between Keshet Broadcasting which is Israel's leading broadcaster'. It's a slippery slope once you start to sell out

No, I was referring to the Vylan chant which I think your post was about. That was a simplistic, populist move. Not excusing the IDF for one second, they are vile, but the situation is far more complicated. Better to listen to Lennon's lyrics in Revolution as a starting point.

What critics are missing is that they are absolutely turd musicians too, like an Irish Goldie Lookin’ Chain, but despot be taken seriously.

haaha, I doubt they wanted all of this publicity tbh - who knows. But they don't be too shy with capitalising on it. I have more respect for Bob Vylan than these guys

Who are you suggesting should revolt? The IDF will just continue killing innocent women and children by the thousands regardless

Not sure the crowd singing the whole Lennon song is the vibe they were going for

At least their chant rhymed

Not directly Kneecap related but Fontaines DC lead singer Grian Chattan was born in Barrow. Turns out his Uncle is Gary Stephens. Who knew ?

Knew he had a relative that played for the toffees, didn’t realise it was Gary Steven’s though….wow!

LIsten to the lyric, not the title. Anyway this is not about songs or chants from the comfort of the UK. It is about the right of Palestinians and Israelis to live with peace and dignity. Hate is causing the deaths and the starting point is the very difficult task of stopping hating your rivals. Israel is currently run by physcos and only the political weight of the USA can change that....I can't see the answer but if hate wins then Israel will not be stopped and Palestinians are in versions of concentration camps. Nobody in the region can take on the IDF so an alternative approach is required. Death to the IDF is neither happening or a solution if it did happen. Just another chapter of death.

Israel is currently run by psychos

Yeah, unlucky them eh :/
