Summary
Jan Weckström discusses rock and roll and the new anti-war music he is making. He tells of his experiences hanging out with Guns N’ Roses and how the industry has changed, especially with AI. His new song “Turn To Dust” is about how politicians today, particularly in the West, are playing with nuclear war just to stay in power. He doesn’t think that the West trying to force their “values” down the rest of the world’s throats is working anymore. He fears the threat of the social credit system and us becoming digital inmates. European technocrats are more afraid of falling out of favor with Washington than their own people. The EU is increasingly weaker, delusional, and authoritarian. He consumes only alternative news and hopes that enough people will at some point come together in civil obedience to change the status quo.
