that one saying where "art should disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed" or something but it's with #IndonesiaGelap movement where the Bayar Bayar Bayar (essentially "ACAB the Song™") song is made to be the anthem for the movement because the cops made a blunder by trying to suppress the band that created the song, basically trying to pressure them to prevent the song being spread, which backfired spectacularly and now the song not only went viral but is the main anthem for the movement
im tearing up it's beautiful. the lyrics are under here (i tried to TL it roughly so it might not be 100% accurate since different culture and all, and i'll give explanation below as well)
#indonesia gelap#indonesia#sukatani#bayar bayar bayar#love how during the protest this song became the main anthem and people sang it as they marched down the street#SAMPAI MENANG!#I'd appreciate it if people in other countries who happens to see this reblogs and spreads this post#along with the posts that summed up the protest and movement going on in Indonesia rn#mostly i just want this song to get the fame it deserves. it truly is a masterpiece
