Fashionable to be right wing? I think not. Read an issue of Americas most fashionable magazine, Rolling Stone, and have your self brought to tears by the overwhelming leftist ideology every article is written under. Not to mention the fact that all college students are expected to be liberal, ’cause hey, it wouldn’t be cool to wear t-shirts saying “I Agree with David Duke,” and being as fashionminded as most insipid college students are, they all profess (however ignorantly) an almost blind support for liberal causes.

Radiohead is another matter. Radiohead is by far the best pop band on the scene, comparable to Pink Floyd’s influence on their era. Can we describe anyone as beat these days without realizing that noone can be beat anymore? Is it not a better thing to define your culture and yourself originally, as Kerouac did, or is it better to try to stick labels to things that they were never meant for? I could go on and on.. but why? Are any of you listening?
