Glad someone else found that segment as ridiculous as I did. Might be the first time I've heard someone say that yes, we have a problem, but only because Republicans haven't put any effort into solving it. If only we could put them all in a room together and harness their formidable abilities.

I get that the underlying intent there is a bad faith argument, but...what if the words themselves are accurate? The real "ambient social disorder" is the rampant misinformation about cities/other people that results in terrified, jumpy people carrying AR-15s around.

The further I get into the album, the more I wonder if it's not so much that the songs have aged well, but that I'm enjoying yelling along in nostalgia as if they're sea shanties, swinging my water glass like a flagon.

I wasn't sure I was going to scream that particular question into the void, but then I saw this post, and it was as if the universe was saying, "Ask, my child. These are your people; they will know."
