Greek Station Puts Lyrical Love in Dictators’ Mouths

To put past petty tiffs in proper perspective, Greek station Galaxy 92 put together a set of print ads called “DOGMA” with help from Lowe out of Athens. Each features a country-traumatizing dictator bearing features of a beloved pop icon, coupled with music-related manifestos rich in iron-fist conviction.

Be-fro’ed Hitler at left soberly states “Black people are the future of music,” while Mao Tse-Tung spouts, “Hard rock is the real cultural revolution.” Stalin, of course, says “I bless America for rock n’ roll.”

It would be nice if cultural and political differences could be solved with music. We could all have smoked pot and fileshared, thereby potentially saving a lot of lives, ammunition and time. Thanks to Creative Criminal for bringing the campaign to our attention.

Many adult children remember watching a father work sixty-hour weeks for decades so the family could have what he never did, then watched him die in his sixties without ever prioritizing his own happiness, and now see that same pattern quietly repeating in their own lives, under a different name.
