Standing Point! Intersektionaler veganer Hardcore aus Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brasilien!
Standing Points Stimme Alex Peguinelli sagte uns über die Intersektionalität des ethischen Veganismus:
Nun ja, wir sind eine Dritte-Welt Band und so sehen wir den Veganismus und Tierrechte in einer ganz besonderen Weise. Wir haben hier in Lateinamerika so viele Probleme, dass die Leute überhaupt kaum über nichtmenschliche Tiere nachdenken. Und so ist, gerade hier eine vegane, anarchistische straight-edge Band zu sein, ganz besonders wichtig.
Außer der Bandarbeit sind wir aktiv in veganen anti-konsumeristischen Kollektiven und im Kampf rund um das öffentliche Transportsystem. Wir meinen, dass über Veganismus zu sprechen, auch heißt, über anti-konsumeristische Politik, anti-kapitalistische Themen und die vielen anderen Dinge zu sprechen, die mit der Befreiung von Menschen und nichtmenschlichen Tieren in direkter Verbindung stehen.
Auf unserem Album ‚Work. Consume. Die.’ geht es um die Unmöglichkeit, in einer Welt, die nur aus Gefängnissen besteht, ein freies Leben zu leben.
“People who talk about revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life, without understanding what is subversive about love and hate, live and DIE, and what is to refuse their limitations, these people speak with a corpse between their teeth.”
Loveless
I threw myself from the highest cliffs
from the most beautiful mountains
I threw myself from the largest buildings
Always knowing that the ground
would be the (final) destination
That the fall would be the path
And the wind would lead life
like carrying pieces of paper
What can we do with the crumbs of theories?
(Normality can properly
Teach people how to live
And how to die)
What can we do with the crumbs of theories?
I tried to hold the air
I tried to hold in the air
I tried to leave the flight
a rough landing
inevitable and painful
And then life became
a scenographic city
if you pull to strong
the walls fall down
Now I see through
these falling walls
That love is the only reason of life
Love for struggle
Love for resistence
Love for freedom
No Compromise
No Excuses
Freedom
By any means necessary
(We turn again to the streets
But we have changed
And the streets mean something different now
We walked and these moments changed us
We saw buildings burning
We were touched by death
We loved and we felt alive
We saw the moon rising behind the barricades
We heard the echo of our voice in the voices of others
We do not walk today
asking the power for grant
They had never legislated peace or freedom
Now their armies cannot occupy our dreams
And their prisons cannot contain our number
This is our world
And these streets belong to us
We are the other,
We are the unemployed,
We are the hungry,
We are the homeless,
We are the thieves,
We are the saboteurs,
We are taking the streets,
We are destroying corporations,
We are taking control of the factories,
We are walking through the night carrying a heart on fire.
all of us,
we are everyone,
we are one.)
