WE WERE ALL WOUNDED - MESSAGES FROM MORRISSEY - MORRISSEY CENTRAL - WE WERE ALL WOUNDED

[Dusty Miller's Hornpipe]

The timing of the post is odd, odder still is how the two - upcoming tour/wounded knee - are part of the same MC message.

 

[Light Housework]

First of all, ridiculous. Redbone is classic. Come and get your love.

I don’t know if you’re Amerikan. But we were all wounded at Wounded Knee. The advance of settler shock troops that expected the best of everything at the expense of the rest of existence.

The gated community’s gates are being crashed. As well they should before it’s too late. The man who represents the ones who stole the world got blasted by just another “white hat” cowboy. That’s what will happen. The nation of settlers will consume itself before it rejoins humanity.

I hadn’t known Come And Get Your Love was a native band.

 

[Phranc & Open]

The pic is so 1992.

 

[TheSmiths_1985]

It's not good. I'm not surprised there aren't many native rock bands.

It sounds better in smoke signals.

 

[spiritual atom bomb]

Never heard of them....and you weren't alive when Wounded Knee happened.

And neither were you for the great French Revolution, the reinstallation of the Jim Crow South, the Bolsheviks, Hitler’s coming to power, the bloodletting of world wars, Palestine, Vietnam, COINTELPRO, Mai ‘68. And most of the events that define our modern life. But we were all wounded.

Some assume the Redbone song is M’s comment on recent news events, well what else could it mean? I guess I’m wrong, but I really don’t see a connection, maybe if the shooter was Native American.

Yeah, violence breeds violence as a part of American culture? if that’s what he’s trying to state? Then, yeah, I guess so. Though he may as well have posted the song Meat is Murder too.

yip,2 plus 2 = 5.

 

[Mimi Ramone]

Hmm, isn't it a very questionable (like egotistical) way to promote his shows?

 

[Mimi Ramone]

Yeah. I’m thinking anything he posted following these events folks would ‘see’ a connection.

It's hard to not see it that way - Timing and all.

Who? MOZI? No… that would be like him trying to get …Arms Around Paris re-released to capitalise on that terrorist attack in 2015… oh, wait… a cold hand just touched me.

 

[This Charming Bowie]

Your route to Central (posted Saturday afternoon):

FWD.

Yes Jay messaged me saying he sent it to Moz!

 

[Mimi Ramone]

Hmmm. Not sure really. To see a connection is a bit of a reach. You don’t think?

He has addressed America’s treatment of Native Americans before. So it’s not surprising he brought it up, but I don’t see how it’s entirely related.

Hmm, ok so why does he feel the need to bring that up today then with a clickbait-ey title like that and squeezes in info about his upcoming shows? The timing is too weird to see it as entirely unrelated.

 

[The Wild Turkey]

The US was founded on violence.
The gun.
The disease.
The trickery.

Morrissey has brought up America's sins many times and he continues to do so. What's strange is that he has yet to bring attention to America's complicity in, and support for, an ethnic cleansing which is currently happening and very much in the news. Apparently he plays favorites.

Because he knows messages like this get the likes of Zoom all hot and sweaty.

I know! and he didn’t say anything about the war in Ukraine either. You think he would have mentioned these when trying to promote his own shows in someway.

Booyah!

 

[Mimi Ramone]

And let's not forget that he used someone elses design without giving credit, although fair enough @This Charming Bowie does not seem to mind and sent it to his team. It's really promotion on a budget.

we will NEVER EVER forget.

I was referring to the current ethnic cleansing as one of America's sins, if that's something he likes to highlight.

America isn't complicit in, and supportive of, Russia's actions against Ukraine (we're not arming and aiding the Russians), although the case can be made that U.S.-led NATO actions provoked the invasion and U.S. aid to Ukraine is only spinning the wheels on a meat grinder. So Morrissey could condemn both if he wanted to. If he only wants to focus on what America did to natives in the 19th century, that's up to him, though it seems an odd focus.

 

[Girlmostlikely]

I was fearing something pro Trump. Even though we are all wounded, in a way, when a politician is attacked. Our democracy is wounded. Maybe that’s why he chose this headline.

That's how I took it. Very disturbing
