Sonic Youth Gossip - View Single Post - What do you think of the draft being reinstated?

yeah, sure, it's the government forcing people to do stuff.

the thing is, where i live, lots of poor brown people are seduced into joining the armed forces with frisbies, brainwashing slogans, and promises of college money. of course many come back too fucked up to function. but because we're talking about poor brown kids with no political muscle, nobody gives a shit-- kinda like the mexican who cleans your pool. (not your pool-- again the metaphors).

anyway, i'm really not for the draft nor for the war-- but as long as people keep stirring the shit, and thinking about things instead of being drones, i'm happy.
