Mark Twain said that money is always more respectable than virtue. Of course, he was a humourist. It wouldn't be funny if it wasn't so absurd. Banks don't think bank robberies are funny and artists don't think that music fraud is funny. When money is used to attack virtue, say, by being put into the hands of a slanderer as payment for defaming an innocent artist, it ceases to be respectable. I hope the higher-ups in this business will ultimately agree with me on this. If I come across as occasionally resenting business people, it may be because of our clash of attitudes. I am a free thinking artist. I have the imagination to picture a beautiful paradise on Earth where money doesn't exist. Of course, they love money and they think I am stupid for not loving it as much as they do. And I try not to pass judgement on the suffering of others because I think everyone suffers. But they don't have any problem eating their meals and living their comfortable lives while they pass judgement on others who don't get to eat much or to have very much comfort. These are normal business attitudes which I have noticed over the course of my life. But then when you consider business people paying others for my suffering, it dismisses my suffering as worthless. Very upsetting. And when a business person pays someone else for my talent, it takes away my beauty. I have long cherished my talent as one of the few things I had going for me. And people were surprised that I wasn't hideously ugly in my live videos. They'd gotten used to seeing my beauty in Dean and in Tina and in Jon and Mick, which left me looking like an ordinary loser with nothing to give and who needed attention. The global 'hate Dave' party wasn't the average person's fault. Such people were misled. And I hope I'll give my parents some peace by erasing the family information which I should never have been forced to write. My family is irrelevant to my work. And I haven't laughed at funny faces since I was six years old. I wish NBC would stop trying to make me look ordinary after they turned those jerks of theirs into beloved stars with my blog. But don't feel bad about it. I want you to feel happy that I have survived their brutality. They don't deserve their cushy jobs. Too bad we can't fire them. |
