#Intro (part of the song “Hulu Hilir” by Hanyaterra, a ceramic music collective from Jatiwangi, West Java, Indonesia. They are active in their local community and fight for the preservation of local traditions and values in face of capitalist globalisation. https://hanyaterra.bandcamp.com/)
#1 - The Sweatshop System
Sweatshops across the world
Clothing more important than a life
A legal prison for poor people
Twenty First century slavery
Almost everything, not just three brands
People are suffering, do not support
Seeking profits not caring about lives
Low-wage workers easy to discard
Silent voices silent exploitation
Twenty first century slavery
Almost everything, not just three brands
People are suffering, do not support
Precarious conditions
Hidden repression
Abusive environment
Fear and intimidation

#3 - Productive Criticism
Always a separation, but there is no us vs. them
We are all in the same, stop and fucking think
Pre-concepts, Clichés, Stupid divisions, Poses
Too Punk, for Hardcore
Too Hardcore, for Punk’s

#4 – Zapatistas!
It is better to die on your feet… Than to live on your knees!
Emiliano Zapata was a leading figure in the Mexican Revolution, which broke out in 1910, and which was initially directed against the president Porfirio Díaz. He formed and commanded an important revolutionary force, the Liberation Army of the South, during the Mexican Revolution. Followers of Zapata were known as Zapatistas.

#5 – Equality
We believe in equality
Liberation will be won through a culture of resistance
Exploitation of gender must be eradicated and we totally condemn it
We are against oppression
Remove the barriers for real emancipation
We support the struggle
The cause is vital, the call must be heard
Together, together we shall win
Equality
No room for discussion
Destroy traditions, Equality, your struggle
We are against oppression
Remove the barriers for real emancipation
No room for discussion
Destroy traditions, Equality, our struggle
Fight Inequality and do it, now!

Hello Bastards UK
We are a collective from around the world who have been living in London for many years. This band was started to give voice
to our views and beliefs, and to encourage punk music to become a political threat again.
Punk nowadays means nothing. It has been dilapidated and absorbed by the system, the threat that was the essence of punk music has evaporated.
