on extremism - 2mørvs lyrics

[verse1: jonathan pageau]
you know
it’s always this idea that* that we don’t have
kind of this secular extremism
you know, and it’s like:
what are you talking about?
i mean, even the french revolution
was exactly that
i keep thinking
you know, ’cause he talks about
how he wants to k* k*
to keep attention and* and ritual
and all this stuff
and, you know, they tried to do that
in the french revolution
they tried to create a religion of reason
and they had, like, the goddess of reason
and they tried to* to have
they had processions and they had all this
and that was*
and it happened mired in blood
like, it happened soaking in the blood
of catholic peasents who refused
to partic*p*te in their sacriledge
so it’s like*
so in the french*
they found* they found*
in the south of france they found
[verse2: jonathan pageau]
entire churches that were*
that were burned down
with people inside the church
you know, hiding from the uh* the uh*
the revolutionary soldiers
because they wouldn’t*
they wouldn’t submit
you know, and* and* people*
they found the corpse[s]
of people holding on to their rosaries
hundreds of people just burned down
by* by these soldiers
it’s like: what do you mean?
you know, and it feels like
he has such a naive vision
he has such a* such a twisted vision of history
which makes it so that he can say that
whatever it is that he wants to do
it’s never been tried
and that’s always a really nice place to stand in, right?
it’s like:
well, you know, no one’s ever done this before
and if they did it it would be awesome

[verse3: jonathan pageau]
like, there would be no problems
and everybody would love eachother and*
you know, and* and
you know, and you see that with protestants, too
protestants have that same thing, it’s like
they split off the church and then
they feel like they can just take the backpack
of all the sins of cath* christianity off their back
and say:
well, that wasn’t us
like:
oh no, we’r* we’r* we’r*
we’re a clean slate
like:
we’re fine, we’re good
and we just follow the bible
and we’re doing our thing
it’s like, no, you have to keep that backpack on
it’s like, i want to put*
i want to keep on my back
all the horrible things that christi* christians did
[verse4: jonathan pageau]
all the* all the inquisitions, all that
i want that in my backpack
i don’t wanna take it off
because if i do, then i’m gonna*
then i’m*
there’s way more chance that i’m gonna do it again
because i’m naive and i don’t understand it
it’s just*
it’s just part of human nature to*
to engage in those kind of things
and it’s like
i’m sure that it’s not sam harris that* that will be
that’ll be burning down churches
i’m sure it’s not him
it’s not* he’s not the one
but if we institute his program
it’s gonna be other people that are gonna do it

[verse5: jonathan pageau]
it’s gonna be other people that are* are gonna be doing it
you know?
that’s what i* that’s what i think
and it’s the same with, like*
tha* that’s why* one of the reasons why we have
kind of, this weird social justice extremism
it’s just because it’s taken up all this sp*ce in society
it’s taken up so much sp*ce in society
that those types of people
that are extremist in their nature
that’s just what they are as people
now they’ve taken on that*
they’ve taken on that mantle
you see what i’m saying?
like it w* it could be anything
it could be anything
there’ll always be, uh
some people in society that are
extremely narrow minded
and extremely, uh, kind of, you know
action oriented and* and, uh, you know
us*them mentality
and those people will take up whatever is there
