If they weren't all standing up, I'd think it was an assisted living party.

Head swimming here with that one.

First off if you've ever been to Austria you would know that this actually is pretty much what qualifies as partying. Incredibly repressive culture. Many moons ago I was in Vienna and after two days got the hell out of there as you could just feel the lack of any vitality, spontaneity or joy.

And I had a great place for cheap- I preferred to take my chances hitchhiking to other parts of Europe.

Seemed like a bunch of well-manicured dead souls to me though there has to be some subterranean culture there that has a pulse somewhere amidst the automatons.

Everything seemed quite antiseptic and so robotically clean that it made you want to toss a little trash around town which I never do.

Now to the song at hand- it's by Opus and it is (or was) a great song. That has to be lip synced there which would fit with the artificial nature of the whole scene. It's a pity that they are doing this as it will forever stain what was really their only "known" song. Shilling for a bunch of fascists is not going to look good in the history books.

Here's the original "Live is Life" video from 1985:

You beat me to it. Sad to see Opus and this great song reduced to a circus like this.

A well-known window spray commercial had already destroyed my enjoyment of that song, sadly.

Ah, that sucks. When I went to Vienna in 1986, it was a freedom full-on punk/youth party as it was the refugee outpost for all the USSR countries escapees. It was better than West Berlin (at that time).

Allen, I have lived in Vienna for 51 years and I can tell from every sentence you write that you have never ever been to Vienna in your entire life.

I've been there a few times, I like Austria.

I'm disappointed to see this though;

Not sure what to tell you Matt- I'm sure you know it better than I if you live there but that was certainly my impression and experience. As I said it was only two days but yes I was there.

Funny - Listening to this instantly put me in mind of Laxmikant-Pyarelal's last early-80's masterpiece - https://youtu.be/xRC0NZrDH5A - which was released a year earlier.

George Carlin missed a great one in his death penalty rant. Bring back a great American tradition. DUELING. Gates and Fauci, back to back, 10 paces, turn and shoot. Now Fauci is a small target so he might last a few rounds.

Can you imagine Biden? He'd get to step 8 and ask "How far we going again?" and his oponent would shout "12 Joe". Cumo the entire cast of "The View" just to get rid of them once and for all.

Where is 'Meatloaf', in his character of 'Eddie" (complete with bike), when you need him to bust up a party?

There must be something very wrong with me, that my brain came up with that one, watching the 'party' video.

Lord have mercy. I think I'd rather shoot myself in the face than hang with this gaggle of barely reanimated cadavers.

just shows what an unreal stupid intolerable reality the 'upper' or 'ruling' or 'successful' classes live in. doesn't it? and they've got a little kid trapped in that madness with them - indoctrinating it to believe that's what 'reality' is. excuse my language: fucking insane. (and that's Austria? they 'party' in English?)

Expand full comment

they are just laughing at us at this point. this needs to end. I am not opposed to violence by now.

Expand full comment

They're not laughing in any real sense. They wouldn't be able to raise a decent honest belly laugh amongst the lot of them.

What they are is living in a constant state of fear. Fear of life itself.

But the fault here is not them. It is us.

Because we do their bidding without saying a word.

How many millions of clerks and policemen and nurses, doctors etc. etc., etc... are performing their functions that all help construct this madness?

Millions.

And each one thinking 'well I can't do anything to change it' because conscious of being such a tiny powerless little part of the machine.

But look: if every little part of the machine merely uttered the words: 'this is mad' as they did what they're told to do - things would change overnight.

Millions muttering 'this is mad'.

But what's the reality?

to all intents and purposes: no one muttering 'this is mad' . No one. Not one.

I've often thought this kind of thing:

Imagine Stalin issuing his orders - go out and kill 100,000 and then going back into his private office and closing the door behind him. Do you think he might have thought to himself 'I wonder if they will?'

And after finding they did it do you think he might ever have thought 'Jesus Christ, is there nothing they won't do? What if I tell them to kill 200,00? I'll try it..' ?

And so on.

Mao Zedong.

Idi Amin.

Hitler. and on and on and on...

Don't you think at least some of them must have pondered on how incredible that the people - so very different from their own selves, you understand, a race, a creature, a thing completely different to the overlord himself - that the people would willingly turn on themselves like that on nothing more than his command?

Well I do. I think it is probably the norm with them. They marvel at our willingness to turn on ourselves and annihilate ourselves.

And that's our fault, see? The see it, find it, use it. But it's ours and we do it.

Expand full comment

Certainly no belly laughing! But scornful tittering is what I’m imagining. At our foolishness. At our complicity as you state. It’s embarrassing and maybe they ought to be laughing. Right up until the crowd reaches critical mass and imposes our own reign of terror. They should be shaking in their boots knowing their lies cannot last through the winter. The critical mass of people decrying the madness is growing one police officer, one teacher, one nurse at a time. We will get there or die trying.

I think they are already in hell but don’t quite yet realize it. It reminds me of the really bad lounge act in Scarface right before they tried to unsuccessfully machine gun down Tony Montana.

Looks like all The Austrian Plandemic Politburo were there having a Grand Old Time, sufficiently socially distanced, likely vaxxed up, and mask free! What better time could be had? 😜

I sure do hope this was on Austrian TV, so that ALL people can see. Same thing happened here, last year all were forbidden to visit family, but they flew around and visited of course. Belgium : lockdown, only 4 people allowed, they : hired a restaurant to party. Why don't people stand up to this ? They did many years ago, in France, Belgium and many other countries. We need to get rid of these folks people !

Expand full comment

They're a bit downshifted because right before they entered the gathering, they had to take a booster shot. I'm sure a bunch dropped dead, from extreme happiness, right after the event ! Or... maybe the event would have been a bit more jam-packed, but a bunch of attendees dropped dead, right after getting their boosters, right before the event ? Either way, 'the show must go on'...

I dunno, I've never seen everybody clapping in such bad rhythm as that before, and some of those guys probably don't know who the guy singing is.

I don't know much about Austria but I reckon they can dance better than what goes on further North. This looks to be a forced event for the globalist minions that they all have to attend. Maybe this is Master's idea of letting his staff have a good time. Like when Ralph Fiennes sent Colin Farrell to Bruges in that movie.

0:26 = Austrian president Mr. van der Bellen - The president has actually small power (though he could refuse to sign laws and is official head of the army) much more a representative role.

YouTube now has an age restriction on the video, as there is a brief artistic shot of a female archer with uncovered breasts in the opening scene. That's why I included an uncensored Dailymotion link.

Who in their right mind would be clapping along to that 'upbeat elevator music'? Clapping along to a guy squeezing his nuts on a stage to get the high notes is not 'partying'. Do we live on the same planet or what?!

Ha, good one, I saw that but I couldn't be bothered to post it before I went to bed.

Still, here's what I dug up: ± the same happened in June 2020 in Switzerland, but with a special "twist":

"According to the report, politicians had an “illegal party” on Tuesday evening at around 10.30 pm. After a 14-hour session, many felt like a cool beer or a sip of wine—and gathered at the “Henris”, the restaurant in the Bernexpo convention centre where the session took place from Monday to Wednesday due to Corona. There is talk of at least 50 up to 100 parliamentarians from various parliamentary groups."

"The councillors and employees of the parliamentary services had to have somewhere to eat, after all. Outside Bernexpo, this was difficult”, parliamentary services answered on request. It remains unclear how much alcohol—which the parliamentarians had to pay for themselves—was consumed."

In short: two Alpine republics, with comparably shitty politicians, albeit the smell may be somewhat different. (/sarcasm)
