Well, When Competition Gets Completely Out Of Hand.

Well, when competition gets completely out of hand.

Both had the music world at their feet but the game they played east side west side was ultimately fatal for both.

The world of street gangs and the music industry of absolute competition was a deadly mix.

2PAC would definitely have been a good actor due to his sensitive nature hidden behind a mask of the badass.

For many kids of that generation, the music was just a provocation, but everything that was rapped was ultimately meant seriously.

Fucking someone's girlfriend and then rapping about it officially is like putting your tack in the gang territory of the opposing gang. Unforgivable..... deadly by the way

A world of money, prestige, gang attitudes was and is a mixture of verbal and physical abuse that should not be underestimated.

Diss was a style in the b boy scene and in the rapper scene back then and still is.

The deadly contempt on display is and always has been a mask of gang culture, and that's what ultimately kills them.

I was once in LA right next door to Watts and the mate we visited had barred all the windows and doors. When I was walking around there they left me alone because I just looked too fucked up. At night you could hear gunshots and if you were barbecuing in the garden after dark you were often in the cone of light of a police helicopter. It was weird but quite normal back then.

Watts is one of the neighbourhoods with the highest crime rate in the City of Los Angeles. It is generally advised not to visit the neighbourhood after dark.

An old leather jacket and the fact that I was a fucking white loaf of bread made me invisible as a threat. I was just one of the few drug users in their eyes, which wasn't true but helped a lot. I could take really cool photos with my small picture camera. There were no mobile phones with great features yet.

The Story Behind Tupac Dissing the Notorious BIG

The world, or rather the societies of this world, are undergoing a shift to the right.

Why? Somehow easy to understand without considering the consequences and these will follow in inevitable ways and effects. But back to the simple, yes this world and by that I mean the world of man and his perception is too complicated, too complex with all its dependencies. There are all the facts, the science and the effects that cry out for change.

However, this is the inertia of knowledge and the comfort of everyone, why change when things are somehow not really bad.

You can maintain your status, can't you?

And that's exactly what the right-wing parties understand and somehow say that everything should stay as it is. Or best to bring out the concepts of the good old days. With the manslaughter argument (which ultimately says nothing) everything wasn't bad.

OFFER SIMPLY SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX PROBLEMS.

PLUS DIVIDE SOCIETY SOMEHOW SOMEONE HAS TO BE TO BLAME FOR THE MISERY.

Hate as an ideology

You really think that a strong hand can fix everything.

Because they just don't want to take responsibility for their lives. That means they would have to think and deal with all the real facts.

The consumer wants to consume and have a job so that he is well off. What do they care about others from whom they have been torn apart by all the propaganda.

All the others are to blame for the loss of prosperity, but not those who are at the top of the food chain in your country.

People who are so rich that you can't even imagine it. The rich and big companies will be fine with the right wing, they will come to terms with them as they have so often in history. Even benefit themselves.

The only problem is that when the spit is over and social development is in ruins, it really wasn't anyone again.

They will all have run away and confess, as so often in history: we didn't see this coming and if we had known, we would have decided differently.

Eat dust you hypocrites.

Have no backbone, take no responsibility and think you're just a nice fellow human being who only meant well.

Since the dawn of humanity, the stars have held a fascination for us, inspiring dreams of exploration. We currently find ourselves in the golden age of the universe, where all the suns are burning and unimaginable quantities of energy are being burnt, resulting in a brilliant light. However, the universe is drifting further and further apart, making it unlikely that we will ever be able to travel to distant galaxies.

Consequently, we are confined to our blue planet as transient beings, unable to fully comprehend its vast dimensions. Our perspective is akin to that of a voyeur, yet we remain safely ensconced at a distance.

I am particularly fond of nocturnal environments, which afford me the opportunity to gaze up at the Stella and to experience a sense of insignificance.

In comparison to the vastness of space, I am but a small entity. This realization has led me to question my own sense of importance.

There comes a day when you have to face your demons.

The capacity to view oneself in a wholly self-reflective manner, without the imposition of a filter or mask, represents the most significant challenge in the process of individual development.

It is inevitable that this process is going to be painful for everyone involved. However, the hope is that, at some point in the future, everyone will become the person they once believed he/she/it to be.

In contrast, The Picture of Dorian Gray can be presented in a humorous cartoon format.

There are times when you have to have a change of direction, otherwise you won't be happy.

Empires rise and fall.... as long as human civilisation exists.

What exists today will be history tomorrow.

You first become aware of this when you have lived in a phase of civilisation upheaval. Rarely does this happen without a sound, but usually after massive preliminary events that herald the upheaval.

May you live in a quiet time and even that is in your hands because those who remain silent agree.
