When I found the performance's ⬆️ video, I already knew Ms. Koechlin, as some time before I had stumbled upon

"Rape - It's your fault".

It's tough stuff. Only watch (3'35'') if you're able to stand hefty sarcasm.

Let's finalise this thread by perhaps one of the most impressive poetry performances I have ever seen.

"The Printing Machine" deals with a variety of topics, but predominantly with the commodification of sexual violence by a ruthless media industry feeding the public's morbid fascination with this topic.

Written and performed by Kalki Koechlin

Even if it weren't for the message, her voice alone is enough reason to watch it.

I have now a subtitled version online.

However: There are some references to Indian news and culture, we might not entirely understand.

I don't think, it takes anything of the message away.

On the contrary: It shows, how universal the vicious news cycle, we are all part of, really is.

Sometimes, I miss the voices from India, Vietnam, Nigeria and other places, I used to have regularly in my Twitter bubble.

The Fediverse is still ethnically and socially a not very diverse place.
