about
Robert Inhuman, THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR
I can't deal with people who limit their research or knowledge of anything to the first few seconds of something they've found on Myspace or Youtube. You can argue whatever the fuck you want about this, but I am really firm and ultimately disappointed in this statement and the world it pertains to. When someone approaches me on tour and says shit about "I follow everything you've done, everything you've said and been part of" - I usually never want to talk to or even see that person again. Because in these years, what they mean is that they've investigated everything that came up in their google search, or often even much less than that. They actually mean they've seen the first few seconds of a couple Youtube videos and a couple seconds of a watery lo-fi mp3 on an opiate-like networking site completely controlled by mainstream "news" companies and NOT the band. They've researched the easiest, most convenient, LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR of information available in the current popular world. Resorting to a DEFAULT method, and then these people think they're ready to talk to, or often combatively criticize Realicide and its history. Even the laughable "punks" and "radicals" surprise me with this lazy, pigeon-holing shit. It makes me feel a little more alone in the world, and my stance on humanity and its deadly short-comings grows morbidly in conviction.
These years, everybody is suddenly an (anonymous, self-proclaimed) expert - cos it's true, with online media everybody basically does have access to all information in some way or another. We have access, but don't really make use of it. We grab at paraphrases, summaries, re-caps, EDITS, vulnerable fiendishly to total misinformation, under a delusion that because we have ACCESS to real information we are automatically informed and knowledgeable - fucking high school diploma when you can't even read, you fucking slug... So if that is how you "learn" about shit, and you never dig deeper or go to more direct sources, if you rely solely on hearsay, on rumor, on statistics, on popular vote... Don't talk to me about Realicide. Don't talk to me at all, cos it's not about choosing the easy path.
I come from a place that showed me no compassion or opportunity, but I rise out of that knowing that its opposite is what I need to be. Pay attention - fucking slugs I meet via Myspace and Youtube - these sites are supposed to be tools, but it's like you'd just set a hammer on the floor next to a box of nails, step back saying "There - work's all done - time for bed." Enemy species. But none of you will even read this unless I type it out and put it on a blog with a cynically abbreviated title...

Somebody told me if you have enough "friends", on Myspace I mean, you can get signed with a fucking record label. Automatically.
