Camp Cope and Festival Falls Are Both Wrong - What we are facing is a battle of Subconscious Ideologies

I enjoy CAMP COPE's music and believe gender balance is an issue in music and festival lineups as well as radio and broadcasting. However, the issue is not purely one of being a woman although this is a huge factor! it is also about how different forms of womanhood are censored and other forms favoured. For instance, if Camp Cope were self-demeaning bimbos that were promoting some overtly sexual music that stroked male egos they would stand a far greater chance of playing on the main stage and radio. Why is this? because society at large does not want to empower woman and so narratives of emancipation, sexual freedom, and gender fluidity are squashed. The issue is bigger than a polarized battle of the sexes something Camp Cope may not realize for they are actually confronting perverted forms of ideology (streams of ideas within the subconscious of society) that reinforces the uncaring establishment of modern society. Institutions be they moneyed festivals or million dollar radio stations, wall st wilfully refuse to undermine their capitalist enterprise that relies on keeping people uninformed, ignorant and indoctrinated in a way that allows them to simply consume to feel better about themselves. To hell with woman's rights I'll just go to a music festival and get blotto or better yet listen to a cynical radio station like Triple J so as not to think about larger political problems that shape and form and impact my very life. The classic analogy could be Plato's cave being the establishment that wants people to remain in a cave of ignorant delusion, people thinking that they are free experiencing life through reason when really they are experiencing a distorted form of reality just like in the Matrix. In Plato's cave, people fool themselves into thinking the flames flickering on the wall are reality bu the establishment lights the fire that fools the people. Camp Cope could easily be perceived as a band wanting to bring people into the light and out of the cave or matrix ideologically speaking. The band in questioning the people and why they are chained up to ignorance, lobotomized and unthinking are calling on the fire starters patriarchy itself to let their people go Camp Cope are the shepherds that want to convert the wayward herd. But they won't because the people who have chained people up in the cave want all the power over the masses and why is this because to have power over people you need themto never question your authority! also you need to keep them ignorant so the become divided and fighting amongst themselves in pseudo or false conflicts instead of confronting the true enemy - peverted ideology - that many help propagate throughout society subconciously far more so than consciously - for the simple fact that they are not aware that they are biased and msyigonistic even though they partake heavily in these beahviours. Ignorant people attack feminism and in so doing they paradoxically harm themselves by reinforcing the societal structures of their own oppression. Woman as the most oppressed persons in society since time immemorial are naturally the true leaders of the new world order based on love and empathy, fighting and war is how many have tried to order the world to calamitous end. So to bring it all back into the musical picture Camp Cope are the anthesis of a shallow mainstream pop artist seeking to make it, their music is abrasive and imperfect, their music is jarring musical expression warts and all and the refuse head on to soothe the status quo and in doing so commit 'the worst act'. They openly question perverted subconscious misogynistic ideology and the real fact that the emperor is really wearing is no clothes, this being no woman representation in music that is anti-establishment. However, the truly sad fact from my subjective male perspective is that when I look around at male artists booked at festivals and on the radio, they are all buckled and emasculated themselves like mainstream female artists many of them promoting rather than destroying patriarchy as they are forced by unfair power relations to reinforce perverted weinsteinesque ideology that is hate personified or else face punishment alongside Camp cope through the violent act of marginalization. To overcome the patriarch one must turn away from the mainstream and focus in on one's inner life. A revolution occurs by refusing to buy into corrupted institutions.
