Janis Jopins last interview-- on rejection

[ismnotwasm]

Four days before she died. She had quite a bit of insight, but she had been dying inside for a long time by the time of the interview. The sound quality is hard to hear and for some reason they animated it, and interspersed it with clips of her amazing voice

[Tuesday Afternoon]

1. I wonder what insights Janis would give us today had she lived -

at that time in space, she viewed other women as competition for male adulation.

[redqueen]

7. It's heartbreaking.

She's one of my favorite singers ever. I spent my teens adoring her and her music.

It's so tragic she didn't live long enough to see break free from the bullshit conditioning women are subjected to.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

8. yes, love Janis. I think she would have grown and evolved and embraced sisterhood ...

she had to fight her own demons first, yanno.

the tortured soul of an artistic genius is not easily understood or accepted by mainstream bourgeoisie.

[redqueen]

9. Yes, she did, and I so identified with her in that.

This male-dominated society really does a number on women.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

10. agreed.

but, really redqueen, it does a number on all of us.

the men that are aware realize it and, are speaking out.

Trying to be heard above the noise. Their voice is getting stronger. I hear it and

We must listen for them and to them.

The Human Experience.

Fraternity.

Kindness.

Peace.

[redqueen]

14. True enough, they get their share of conditioning.

But seeing as how they're the group with the privilege in the context of sexual dynamics, I don't cut much slack.

Like, hardly any.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

15. understood. --

I don't even acknowledge those that choose to remain stupidly unaware.

I just do not have the time for it.

2. I was very, very young when she was popular, and knew about

her mostly from my older siblings, who were fans, but I don't remember her being attacked by feminists. Was she?

[ismnotwasm]

3. I doubt it

She was before my time, but it sounds like some random criticism the interviewer brought up.

What gets me is this was done 4 days before she od'd

[Squinch]

4. I thought it sounded like that too. I just googled to see if there was any lasting evidence

that this ever happened, and found nothing.

[redqueen]

5. Thanks, I had the same thought as you.

And she said the same thing - she didn't remember being attacked.

Why would he throw that shit out there, I wonder.

[Squinch]

6. LOL!

[ismnotwasm]

12. Gee, hmmm

[siligut]

11. Just more perception manipulation?

The PTB can't have an effective, rebellious hero to lead women out of the oppressive, submissive, subservient abyss we have been herded into.

This is a slick video and there are more made by the same artist about other rock performers. It is subtle and it may just be that the artist lacks the talent to capture Joplin's essence, but that animation just looks like the "Woman's Day" standard version of a hippie.

13. Yeah I didn't like it

Her last interview turned into a quasi-joke
