    I heard Colin Jerwood eat young children. Trust me, it's some 1-poster on an internet forum that told me : it must be true !

    I'm aware that the strict vegans among us may object to this. Well, TETO.

    Doesn't really surprise me that they'd stoop this low, they got extremely popular. Just look at Crass's view counts on YouTube. Also the song "End Result" by them combined with Alex Jones who rants on about crap about poisons in food can cause psychosomatic illnesses. Alex Jones is a tool of the government - suggesting to get conspiracy info from Google and calling Targeted Individuals Schizophrenic. Anyone heard of Disinfo Agents?

    I am not sure I understand the connection between a Crass song written in 1978 and Alex Jones (he's the bloke that does Infowars, right?).

    Yeah, he's the one that does Infowars, he just hammers fear into people and that's all he ever does, Crass does seem to take a more fearless approach. But I have gone psychosomatic when I was stupid back then as I listened to Alex Jones without researching and Crass added to my problem because it was drilled into my subconscious with a part of their song "End Result", now as I've researched everything conflicts with each other, there's no truth when you want to seek it. Meaning there may or may not be a devil. There is so much Satanic/Divine symbolism. But I don't know if that's created to brainwash and take more control over people. I've woke up to true reality too long ago and I'm pretty much alone, I was alone my whole life, in Kindergarten I was introduced to pledging, I only pledged the flag 2 times and I stopped because there was something odd about it. Everyone I meet is thoroughly programmed and they go against my thoughts like they're living cookie-cutter puppets. I live on extremely Patriotic American territory, so I can't have any meaningful conversations in real life.

    Also weren't Crass pretty mainsteam in Britain back then? How'd they get so popular yet the government does nothing to censor them. Makes me think the government wants them to do what they do. Some bands encourage chaos, cause riots and you get more laws being pushed as people would like to request more security if the Anarchists are branded as terrorists. There's no way to change society and if we did get involved trying to change things, we'd all be unsuccessful, it's always been happening for years. All political mainstream figures have this "divine" facade cast upon them and any politician who had done a positive change has been assassinated and they were all dealt in politics. So, wouldn't an Anarchist sacrifice his integrity to become a politician and then say truth just to try to cause some change?

    Anyways, I was a major whistle-blower back then and encouraged people to free-think, because there was something not right about society and people didn't really give a shit, they'd either ignore or ridicule me. This is also what probably added me to a black-list, being an enemy of the state. Seems like psychosomatic illness though that I have cancer-like symptoms. But at the same time I run into people who seem to be a part of Cointelpro. Especially online. I'm beginning to believe they love how they're so blindly happy living superficial clockwork linear lives, also getting a kick out of distracting me, making me feel guilty about odd fetishes I've developed as a product of their mind games, getting a laugh and diverting my attention from real problems and into conformity. Sometimes it seems like the majority of people are psychopaths who love to push my buttons. Not really related to the Crass topic, but I think you guys think I'm a weird person posting that up there. I have no way of deleting those posts. And posting about my whole life story is something you guys wouldn't care about, because my whole life seems to be one big puzzle where people tried their best to brainwash me and play mind games if I put it all together, it all adds up perfectly, I linked too many events that are more than just mere coincidence, my family seemed to be a part of this as well. Seems like I live a cursed life. If anyone here thinks I'm a disgrace to the Anarchist movement, then by all means say it. Because I suspect you guys to laugh at me like everyone else. (((This would be my last post unless someone cares what I post about, because I'm not going to stay here wasting my time with people who don't give a shit.))) I've met no like-minded individual such as myself and probably never will unless I get out of this country & my mother won't allow me to leave and I'm about 25, her excuse is that I'm her only son. And when I have something serious to talk about like my cancer-symptoms she has this little smirk on her face then she diverts my attention away not really giving a shit about me, see where I'm getting at? She even tells me to pray to God to help me even when I'm incapable of conjuring a serious prayer because I think God is too unreal to even exist. At one point I asked Jesus to help me for an experiment to see what would happen and he never did help me. At one point my bodily pains got intense and my mom said it was all God's plan to take me away. Anyways I thought it was hilarious at first to try to pray to Jesus. I used to really genuinely give a crap about people and was way too nice for my own good, now I'm just allover the place from giving a shit then a long time of thinking people are stupid, barbaric and not worth my praise. Because I do talk about things related to each other but people I talk to seem to play the part where I'm random and off-topic, most of them don't have the capability to link related subjects from a topic to each other it seems.

    I have a huge problem with Alex Jones myself, he poisons minds and is a major distraction to the real problems, his psychosis is spread and multiplies like a cancer and actually gets people killed, you went off topic a bit but it's ok to come here and vent, but I would strongly suggest to you to seek medical attention on your own for those symptoms you are experiencing, it could honestly be more than psychosomatic.

    1) Ouch my eyes. Please stop writing in green.
    2) There is absolutly no connections between Crass and Alex Jones. He was still a young kid during the time that Crass was active.
    3) We're getting really offtopic

    Yes, Crass were quite popular back then. They sold a lot of records but they did get into trouble with the law more than once actually. And please, do drop the green! ;)

    Okay, yeah, sorry that I got off-topic, but my problems are more than psychosomatic, but not a mental one, like Schizo, I worked within a government building because I had no choice and I dreaded the thought of working in that building and I did jobs that were against just computer repair like Managing employment paperwork and maintaining the governer's server, but I refused to do so, I was very nonconforming and different working in that building and I think they had my computer monitored, because when I looked up Alex Jones and all that stuff, like Reptilians and crap like that, people acted like the conspiracy in there, putting their faces and looking in my eyes with theirs, people wearing lizard contacts, mentioning Big Brother in a computer demonstration while the teaching instructor of the new computer terminals looked at me, like he knew I was a big problem, but I just don't know what. It got to the point where I got pissed and quit my job. Then people seemed to drive back and forth to my emotions and thoughts and honk at very bad times when I think of something evil or brag to someone online about the problems of society and government. But it's not even happening for quite a while, just when I posted all that text in Green here, later on during the day, a police car was parked in front of my house and kept flipping his sirens on and off. And my sister was freaking out for some reason. I don't have a job since 2009, yeah, off-topic again, but it should be an interesting read.

    Free the Crass Symbol!!! By the designer of the Crass Symbol, Dave King

    The very first appearance of Dave King's Crass symbol on Penny's Rimbaud's zine, "Christ's Reality Asylum."

    In 1977, in an old farmhouse in the wilds of Essex in Britain, I designed a logo for my friend Penny Rimbaud's impassioned manifesto, Christ's Reality Asylum. A heartfelt rant against as many of life's inequalities as would fit into ten pages of a homemade zine. The text was printed direct from typewriter to the page on a prehistoric copy machine and the logo was hand stenciled onto the grey cardboard covers. From the beginning, the logo was designed to be easily stenciled, a quality that would become very valuable later on. Its basic elements were a cross and a diagonal, negating serpent, formed into a circle, like a Japanese family crest.

    Fast forward a few months and the soon to be infamous punk band Crass, is forming in that same damp but fertile farmhouse. Some of the ideas and certainly the righteous anger find their way from the zine into songs that the band members developed. The logo was also adopted by the band.

    In the intervening thirty five years, Crass' influence spread around the world and took with it what became known as the Crass Symbol, a signifier of both the band and a demanding, counter-cultural questioning of authority of all kinds.

    As new generations discover the band and its still relevant critiques, the symbol has been emblazoned on school bags and clothing and tattooed on bodies. Many "homages" have been made over the years, some the enjoyable work of genuine fans, others just blatant, barely altered rip-offs.

    Consider the current case of London fashion house Hardware. Taking the original symbol, wrapping it with a chain and adding their name, they then copyrighted the symbol to use on clothing they say is "chic, glam and borderline trashy". They may have crossed that border with their "Whorewear" line.

    I wonder what Crass fans around the world (wide web) think of this situation?

    It seems ironic that chains have been added to the logo of a band whose abiding hope has been for the breaking of society's restraints.

    And what happens to the counter-culture, now that everything can be appropriated and sold back to a world hungry for authenticity?

    Penny Rimbaud gets a new job at VICE Magazine and post an article bragging about how crass created "real punk" and that without them it would be nothing. Self-ego boosting. And top of the irony, he tells others that they're not punk.

    http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/fuck-v12n3

    But then when i post this:
    Then i get censored and my comments disseapear. Woo-hoo. Here's what punk is all about, guys. Thanks to Penny for telling us.
