Talking to Greg Moffitt of Legalise Freedom about growing up in Ballymena; outsiders finding niches; being a music journalist; the wokification of heavy-metal; the disappointment of rock-stars post-Covid; the ‘larpy’ quality of modern life; industrial society in slow-motion decline; the collapse of rationalism; and the possibility of the afterlife.

I remember "the Reverend Doctor Ian Paisley" well as I was a child growing up in England in the 60s and 70s. Judging by his speeches on TV, Paisley’s strength lay in his ability to combine the language of biblical certainty with that of politics.
If you think we are players in a game, characters like him are needed to divide the populace. So much today is still about dividing and distracting us.
"The pandemic" that never was was probably just a chapter in the story that is being spun for us by the global oligarchy. Living on Mars is another story. Climate change disaster etc etc.
What characters we choose to play in their games is the only freedom that they give us.
If we step outside the game or at least realise we are in it, that is a step in the right direction.
I spent time in St Patrick’s Barracks just behind the Ballymena Show ground in late 1960’s whilst Dad was serving in the Army. Loved Ballymena, and Broughshane and Ballykeel primary schools as a 6-8 year old.

You two together always a winner.
