Deurbanize 05:27
Urban existence offers nothing But a history and future of exploitation and blood Industrial mass society crushes us With its seemingly endless levels Of impersonal control mechanisms Continually reproducing civilization Continually reproducing authoritarianism We are under the control of institutions That are reinforced when we believe in them and obey Mass surveillance, pigs, ideologies Maintain a social capitalist order In which we can live lives with Empty symbolic meaning Distractions, drugs, technology to keep us at bay Life in cities will continue to deteriorate Increased poverty, resource wars, violence and oppression The time to abandon this way of life is now Internal struggles waged to kill the pigs in our heads And destroy the beliefs in ideologies and institutions We are all potential agents of change But we must heal ourselves in order to fight Liberate spaces and land Create potential breeding ground for solidarity & revolt That will erupt when we are self organized Decentralized collectives of free individuals Living outside the grip of urban existence Dropping out is powerful in itself But ineffective without revolt Deurbanize, deindustrialize! Take back our lives from the clutches of urban existence Revolt is not nearly as effective Without creating a new autonomous way to live Lets stop reproducing this system Liberate yourself, create the potential for change By creating local decentralized resistance To industrial capitalist civilization

Leftism defends the fundamental Values and institutions upholding civilization That of humanism and progressivism Constantly adjusting to meet the needs Of modern industrial society Assimilating, pacifying, eliminating dangerous elements Channeling rage into less threatening forms Absorbing, modifying, and perverting resistance currents To fit the leftist pseudo-rebellious agenda Working as a self defense mechanism for the system All the symbolic protests And single issue campaigns Won't change fucking shit In this techno-industrial civilization You divert rage into single issues Furthering the alienation of capitalism With your activist expertism And specialization in social change You are not radical Your movements and praxis Arose from state institutions Your privilege politics are a dead end Rooted in Marxism and academia Advocating identification with victimization Defining individuals in terms of their social roles Attempting their liberation Not questioning the existence of the roles themselves So they are reproduced You construct reified categories Of unified oppressed people Tokenizing, representing, Patronizing, simplifying Civilizations systematic domination And inherent class structure Thinking we can end oppression By changing micro scale social dynamics Falsely believing institutionalized oppressive ideas are changed By changing our language and not destroying the institutions themselves If you want to defend reform and reproduce The structures of society then just fuck off When your morality is questioned The entire framework of your praxis falls apart The pillars of your ideological constructs crumble They are based on heteronomous discipline and leadership Morality, ideology, representation, and hierarchical organization The same tools used by the state Power hungry authoritarian leftists You're a self defense mechanism for the system Power hungry authoritarian leftists You're a tool used by the state

Lets unleash our wildness Revolt and destroy, simply because we can We do not need excuses to take out our rage We do not need to act on the systems terms We do not need justification We will destroy because we hate everything in sight We do not want to carve out our own ghetto Within the confines of civilization All of its infrastructure must be destroyed The institutions that perpetuate its logic Define, categorize, symbolize, and compartmentalize Its technology and science shaping the world Creating apparatuses of ultimate Control and domination Its military and pig police That protect and defend the social order The agriculture and resource extraction Ecologically devastating endless expansion Its architects and specialists That design and manage this world Its domestication, the ultimate control And appropriation of life Its never ending self perpetuating reproducing drive All of this must be annihilated And then we'll see the stars shine bright Their machines will rust Their buildings will crumble The natural world will thrive And we could connect And find our place within The beautiful natural chaos of this world

Shackles 01:48
Abused, dominated, raped, possessed Thousands of years of misery and suffering Under civilizations patriarchal rule Binary roles reproduced for a division of labour Sex and gender are social and cultural constructs Confining us all Imagine the endless possibilities of Expression beyond masculinity and femininity by Smashing the shackles of static, limiting, gendered identity Let's connect with our desires and passions Ignite the flame of revolt Perpetuating a cycle of reproduction Producing human resources Coerced and socialized to accept their prescribed roles As workers, (re)producers, and consumers Imagine the endless possibilities of Expression beyond masculinity and femininity by Smashing the shackles of static, limiting, gendered identity Let's connect with our desires and passions Ignite the flame of revolt Destroy This institutional Hetero-normative gendered Patriarchal hell

Disconnect 05:16
Living a domesticated existence Starves people of meaning in their lives Everyone feels the void beneath the surface Of everyday activities and routines Miserable, exploited, mass populations Feeding the industrial systems endless hunger Treated like machines, living beings Enslaved and kept passive in a technological noose We live in these cages Made of concrete, glass, and steel A functioning human made hell Complete with natural scenery Yet there is no community Deprived of connection with real people Technology perpetuates alienation But promises to connect us And fill the void in our lives In constant need of escape and distraction From this fucking ugly world Technology creeping into our lives Pop culture, pacifying shit Endless distractions to curb dissent A society of lonely domesticated beings Attempting social interaction behind a digital screen Clinging to the feeling of connectedness Personalized profiles, mass communication tools Monitored and funded by pigs Spying on people, on movements While corporations profit off government control Microsoft, apple, fedbook Endless lists of corporations Infiltrating our everyday lives The NSA, the CSE Databases created from what you share Information for incrimination Millions of people on terrorist watch lists Technology's a weapon used against us Its function is to propel their ability To efficiently exploit us and the natural world While doing so capitalizing off selling us Gadgets to distract us from the lives we live and hate Turn off that shit, enter the real world You are not connected You are alone staring into a fucking a screen Get outside, meet with real people! Even if we use these tools We must never forget Technology is a system created by and for those in power And it will only exist with Division of labor, exploitation, and death Becoming connected through technology Is a sick fucking joke

They have their pigs, weapons, and prisons Militarized modern state power structures But their counter-insurgency measures And their violent oppressive institutions Will never crush the passion, love, and hatred in our hearts With autonomous, decentralized, unrelenting resistance We'll create possibilities of living wild and free Taking strategic advantage of the weaknesses of the state And its complex but centralized fragile infrastructure Just think of the possibilities If the electrical grid was attacked A devastating act like taking out the power Could debilitate the functions of the state Opening up potential for escalating revolt Attack the structures of capital! Sabotage the modes production! Their roads, bridges, power lines, and machines Can be destroyed, internet servers blown to bits Bring the system to a halt If electricity alone was taken out It could offer a glimpse into a world Free of the sickening mechanistic speed Of technological mass society While at the same time creating Opportunities to increase Levels of sabotage and resistance Destroying the prison world that they've built Full on primal war, arm your desires For wildness, life, and anarchy We want lives free of exploitation and domination We want lives free of domestication and civilization Arm your desires

Civilization domesticates and colonizes Appropriating and creating resources to maintain Its socio-economic relationships and structures Human beings are treated as resources Controlled, exploited, and consumed Education maintains this dynamic It's an institutional program that Colonizes children's minds Embedding civilized values within them Attempting to rid them of the wild Crushing self knowledge and the ability To learn from the world on their own terms Instead teaching representation Separation and formulaic reasoning Schools serve the same function as prisons Children are isolated for years Tamed, possessed, and controlled Their freewill eradicated Programmed to accept the invasion of their minds These institutions do not care about your children They exist to perpetuate their own knowledge and logic Of ignorance, obedience, authority We are born wild And if allowed to learn From our own direct experiences We will thrive and flourish Civilization and education are antithetical To knowledge and life Embracing the beauty of natural chaos Empathy , imagination, interconnectedness, Co-operation and mutual aid, The keys to intelligence and a sustainable culture Civilization and education are antithetical To knowledge and life

Daily mass shootings are a reality of modern life In technological mass society Existence is rendered meaningless and empty Disputes over gun laws, bad parenting Possible preventative measures How can you ignore what's right in front of your face? The system has reached a breaking point This death culture is driving people insane Domestication is misery, it is insanity This is not how we were meant to live Synthetic reality, adverts, lights, signs, screens This meaningless existence is an insult to us This fucking culture reeks of death Confused people lashing out in extreme ways Small children with knives and guns Massacring their classmates Suicides vastly increasing Depression, addiction, mental illness These problems are rooted in civilization Why is this an accepted reality? Why do so many hate their lives? Why do millions need pharmaceutical drugs To get through the day? They appropriate our life purposes To live as free beings They keep us in chains, they keep us in misery Mass exploitation, war, and genocide This sick society is rooted in violence It cannot be fixed with reforms The system is rotten to the core If we want change, we need to wage war Against the system and all its institutions For the complete destruction of technological mass society Freedom cannot be given it must be taken The system is imploding One days these cities will be ruins and The tales Of civilized life will be told The stories of polluted, synthetic environments And humans randomly massacring each other Will seem insane

Feral Revolt 04:44
Lives spent in a void Of meaninglessness, work, misery Depression, loneliness, anti-social paranoia Trapped in the spectacle Of technological mass society Unable to relate to one another Relationships mediated through images and media Hyper domestication normalized Internalized, breaking us, conditioning us The only reasonable response Is fucking rage Its so tempting to numb yourself into apathy Blinding yourself from the stark reality That there is more that you want from life More than concrete walls, a mediated existence A polluted, dystopic, technological world Where life suffocates, screams, and dies Unable to escape, trying to run farther and farther away Only to be reminded of the death system You cannot escape civilization It is global, it is everywhere We must face it head on Decivilizing, rewilding, destroying Living as criminals in a system that we deny legitimacy Developing theory, tactics, and strategies To eradicate civilization and gain autonomy Against domination and exploitation Maintaining health of the mind and body Martial training and staying physically fit To overcome mental barriers and debilitating depression, And to take on any fucking pig or snitch that gets in your way We cannot let the system crush us And our desire to live with direct community An undomesticated feral existence We need to understand The reality of our situation Take care of and support each other with Mutual aid, solidarity, compassion

Leviathan 03:10
The same linear narrative repeated Progress and His-story A fragmented chronicle Of the deeds of Leviathan On its conquest to capture and assimilate All that's outside of itself Feeding it's immortal institutions That live off of life And produce nothing but death Perpetually decomposing Destroying everything in its path And while its in a state of decay It recomposes and reorganizes its parts Leviathan absorbs life through mechanisms Of domestication and gender Systematically breaking humans Separating them from their desires And what it means to be alive Giving them a false spirituality To identify with the Leviathan Humans are organized to give it life Moving its wheels and levers Throughout its his-story, a sequence is repeated Deceive, capture, dominate, accumulate, annihilate, decline Will it all crash? Will it all collapse? Or will civilization shift and adapt Prophecy’s speak of revolution Always out of reach, always on the horizon The ideal conditions will never arise The time is now to refuse, evade, attack This domesticating gendered prison Become feral beings Revolting with both the body and spirit To ignite a fire That can burn Leviathan to the fucking ground
