Eco-communities as a social vision

Eco-communities as a social vision
Egalitarian and ecological communities, like the pictured East Wind (www.eastwind.org), are very close to our vision of an ecological society

"Back To The Primitive" by Soulfly, Album: Primitive (2000)



Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
We got our life to live
The way we want to be

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
"Who feels it, knows it"
(Bob Marley)
And God will guide me

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your bullshit
We're back to set it free
Confronting the negative

Back to the primitive
Fuck all you wannabes
You don't mean shit to me
Let it bleed...

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
We got our life to live
The way we want to be

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
How it used to be
Check your reality

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
Fuck all you wannabes
Aaaaaarggghhh!

Back to the primitive
Fuck all your politics
Forever we will be
What we want to be


Disgusting of hypocritical politicians that make wars, destruct environment, enslave people in a meaningless life in concrete walls fed with lies from manipulated Mass Media, the singer, full of anger, rejects civilized life and calls us for the wild. That song reminds us that of Kinks' "Apeman" which deals with the same issue but in a humoristic attitude. We understand Max Cavalera's furious attitude because he is in contact with tribes who suffer a lot from their contact with "civilization" but it's not only something personal:

There is also a controversial sociopolitical movement, the Anarcho-primitivism which calls seriously of the wild by strongly critisizing current politics, role of science and technology and generally the development and form of civilization under exploitative authorities and patriarchy. No matter the utopic and sometimes goofy proposals about the future form of a back-to-the-primitive social organization, anarcho-primitivists do have a point when they critisize the historical development of social structures.
