'Les Misanthropes' - Emmanuel Reynaud & Hannah Tasker-Poland

Say please and thank you
Chew with your mouth closed
Don’t gain capital
Be happy with trickle down
Respect your elders
Do as you are told
Climb the ladder
But not too high
Have your cake
And eat it too
Smear it on your face
Wear it like a smile
Loosen that button
Rise up
Storm the battlements
Eat the rich

We are inching closer to a powder keg moment of the 21st century. Tensions are rising, society appears more and more polarised and the gap between the haves and the have-nots is widening. It is time for the tea to be tipped and the resources redistributed. But when humanity, at face value, is as vile as vile can be, how do we discern the right course of action? Do we feast on the remains, or attempt to rebuild new and better?

Either way, something has to change,
so:

We are revolting.
