LucasV Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I think we can help bring the state down through singing. Here is why: Stef has said before that connection is how we bring down the state, and that connection is essentially listening. Through singing and listening to singing we can potentially bring connection to people that would otherwise not experience it. Stef has also said that the state fundamentally rests on our fear of each other, something that is removed during the experience of connection. The feeling of connection could also give people an experience that could help convince people of anarchism because the connection makes it more real and tangible. This might sound crazy but in my experience I am a good enough listener that I can bring connection to people through listening to singing. What I would love to do is test this theory out with some FDR listeners who would like to sing either acapella or karaoke style to see if listeners feel any connection to the music and each other. Also I think it would be a lot of fun regardless and a good way to get to know people. Would anyone like to participate in a Skype call and sing and/or listen to others sing? It would be like an FDR karaoke night. If it is successful and people feel a strong connection we could then stream it live and invite others to sing and listen as well and then afterwards point people towards FDR. I think this could be a great way to bring connection to the mostly virtuous but not philosophically inclined people that exist. Please let me know what you think and if this is something you would be interested in participating in!
