      TIN SOLDIERS AND NIXON’S COMING

      WE’RE FINALLY ON OUR OWN

      THIS SUMMER I HEAR THE DRUMMING

      FOUR DEAD IN OHIO 🎵

      …I wonder if there’s a Chinese equivalent of CSNY who wrote a song about Tiananmen Square…?

        Never paid much mind to the second line, seeing it in writing is somehow so much more chilling.

          Gotta get down to it, soldiers are cutting us down

          Shoulda been done long ago

          The sense of resignation, the combination of slaughter and starting a long-overdue chore.

          What if you knew her and found her dead on the ground?

          How can you run when you know?

          How indeed? Beyond chilling.

      I mean, given the climate, feels a little prophetic about where the US is heading.

        Just make a new post then. It wasn’t even an equivalent comparison. They could have used an image of the Bonus Army or an artist’s impression of the Whiskey Rebellion.

          I’m not justifying it, just explaining a possible reason. I don’t really care either way

        There’s still a difference between “heading” and “already there”. Not as much of one as I’d like, but still.
