Propaganda directed at changing the world—what an absurdity! Propaganda turns language into an instrument, a lever, a machine. Propaganda fixes the composition which human beings have taken on under social injustice, by stirring them. It counts on their ability to be counted on. All people know in their innermost awareness that through chis medium they are turned into media, as in a factory. The rage they feel in following it is the old rage against the yoke, reinforced by the dim knowledge that the way out pointed by propaganda is the wrong one. Propaganda manipulates human beings; when it screams freedom it contradicts itself. Mendacity is inseparable from it. It is the community of lies in which the leader and the led come together, even when its content as such is correct. In it even truth becomes a mere means, to the end of gaining adherents; it falsifies truth simply by taking it into its mouth. That is why true resistance is without propaganda. Propaganda is antihuman. It presupposes that the principle that politics should spring from communal insight is no more than a form of words.
In a society which prudently sets limits to the threatening abundance, what is recommended to everyone by others deserves mistrust. The warning against commercial advertisements, that no company gives anything away, is applicable everywhere, and, after the merger of business and politics, especially to the latter. The degree of eulogy increases with the decrease in quality: the Volkswagen, unlike the Rolls-Royce, depends on advertising. The interests of industry and consumers do not harmonize even when the former seriously has something to offer. Even propaganda for freedom can be a source of confusion in that it necessarily effaces the difference between theory and the particular interests of its addressees. The workers' leaders murdered in Germany were cheated even ofthe trurh of their own action, since fascism belied their solidarity by the selectivity of its revenge. When intellectuals are tortured to death in concentration camps, that does not necessarily make the workers outside worse off. Fascism was not the same for Ossierzky and for the proletariat. Propaganda cheated both.
What is suspect is not, of course, the depiction of reality as hell but the routine invitation to break our of it. If that invitation can be addressed to anyone today, it is neither to the so-called masses nor to the individual, who is powerless, but rather to an imaginary witness, to whom we bequeath it so that it is not entirely lost with us.

生前为什么不多说说，死了才说（真不理解）
但我还是觉得，中国这波宣传别有用心
而且外交部都专门提了，这个待遇可不多见
坂本龙一的第一张专辑的第一首作品THOUSAND KNIVES，开头第一句就是“久有凌云志，重上井冈山”
此专辑中最后一首更是直接采样东方红
生前就已经说了很多了
快夸，你夸了其实我也会听一点点
夸太要时间了，打字好累（🌚）
这个不好那个不对，这谁都能说个123来。重要的是什么对、什么好。
所以你觉得我在讽刺你肯定是搞错了，我也是觉得一个音乐人受人赞美肯定首先是他的乐曲是悦耳动听的，其次才是各种奇奇怪怪的原因。
所以我建议你展开讲一下他的音乐性，或者至少分享一些你认为的他的没有政治色彩的歌，大家还是想听听这些内容的。
至于为什么一堆人只在那强调他的左派属性...这很正常，二十一世纪的一般通过网友就这音乐鉴赏水平，能朴素地给好听不好听下个判断就不错了，怎么可能到处都是音乐区
想起了我朋友就批判那些脱产小鬼只会批斗，又不能提点建议
受教了。
非要我明牌伸手吗？
感觉你可能看过了
没有，我不逛音乐区的
我先去看一下他提到的那个纪录片
可能也没了
有肯定还是有的，而且应该有很多。我就不找了，这坑太大我没能力看懂，更没能力填
但是，我就是对政府不爽而已
