Not even 4 months in and we already have SOTY

Well, in the words of the historian whose research this new Bob song alludes to:
> "The entire left wing-right wing scenario is a chess game where various pawns are motivated by emotions to follow the orders of "Kings and Queens" whose allegiance is to psychological control objectives and propaganda is one of the ways that psychological control is established."

Holy shit how based can one man be?

Trips of truth

Uh hello based department?

Based Dylan making kino while most boomers are trying their best to get on the charts

If you're still in this thread can the user who was I was having the Chronicles discussion with answer back? I'm willing to have a genuine discussion. I personally think the entire book was Dylan riding a bit on his recent return to critical success (Time Out of Mind was his first acclaimed album in decades) and snickering to himself. I don't hate the book but that's what it seems it was.

Based.

I wouldn't say so. He's worked to stay cryptic since his explicitly Christian period. His general outlook is so blackpilled that it's hardly possible to assign him a wing; when he did a concert in China he made a weird crack about them giving away tickets "in the orphanages."

>Dylan had brought a woman to breakfast and got in an argument with his wife where he struck her in the face.

But it sure do bother me to see my loved ones turning into puppets

Not him, but this is an interesting read on the topic oestrem.com/dylanchords/professors/stealing2.pdf

Dylan’s entire life is a story of contradictions, red herrings, trolling, and straight-up bullshitting. You can’t categorize his life or art or legacy into a neat logical box. You have to interact with Dylan on his own terms.

He's blackpilled to some degree but not a leftist, user.

I've seen the argument that he's a post-modernist before (not that specific text) and to be frank I don't think it gives him a pass and that people wouldn't be giving him one if he wasn't Bob Dylan.

whats the most black pilled Dylan lyric? for me its

>I was born here and I'll die here, against my will
>I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
>Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb
>I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
>Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
>It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

>trolling, and straight-up bullshitting
90% is this desu

Again, I don't think any of that's really all that true and just an easy way out of giving him real critique. He's my favorite artist, I can recognize most songs of his from the first 5 seconds but he's not an untouchable god. He's a human and can be judged as one.

Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
You can't rely no more to be standin' around waitin'
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
Fools glorifying themselves, trying to manipulate Satan
And there's a slow, slow train comin' up around the bend

I was replying to the claim that that was common knowledge. It's not common knowledge, very few people have processed it, they think he's a leftist who likes being weird.

Counterfeited philosophies have polluted all of your thoughts

Karl Marx has got ya by the throat, Henry Kissinger's got you tied up in knots.

You got men who can't hold their peace and woman who can't control their tongues

When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?

Probably cuz Dylan is most famous in the cultural zeitgeist as being the guy who wrote Blowin' in the Wind

Okay, right. I was speaking like that cause I assumed all of us to be big Dylan fans. The avg person does think he's just some hippie singing Blowin in the Wind. I live in Austin & talked to some fags at a workshop center for school abt Dylan and they had no idea abt his comments abt Trump and Reagan and secretly liking for Goldwater and how religious he is

>the guy who wrote Blowin' in the Wind
Which people generally assume was about the cultural changes happening in the 60s when it was really about the Civil War

Seeing some people mad at Dylan supports the JFK conspiracy? Why? Is it because conspiracies are "muh right wing?" (mostly referring to leddit)

Just normies

Yeah probably

Kino

It’s kind of amazing that Bob Dylan says ‘Q is real’ in his new JFK assassination song and no one is even talking about that.

JFK assassination theories aren't particularly right-wing. Over 61% of the public has said they think there was something more to it in recent polling.

>>I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
That one gets me every time.

>Twas in another lifetime one of toil and blood when blackness was a virtue the road was fulla mud
That whole song really

True, I think libshits online are associating this song to right wing stuff bc Dylan references freemasons and human sacrifices.

There are no more liberals, there are no more conservatives. You have to understand that the vast majority of the mainstream was successfully reprogrammed into a false dichotomy between neo lib/neo con which are two sides of the same laissez faire economic coin.

>two sides of the same laissez faire economic coin

Yeah.

the official Bob Dylan youtube channel changed its entire banner. Doesn't that seem odd to do for a supposed random throwaway track? I expect big news coming soon

Hopefully a new album. The respite in new songs from Tempest to this was the longest ever in his career. I also think this might be his official last song, it seems like a good (albeit odd) footnote to end on.
