"I grew up with bands like Beck and Sonic Youth and Nirvana— it was cool to not care. But we live in a time period where you have to give a fuck. If we just allow the destruction of our lifestyles, our habits, our cultures, our movements, our environments, our relationships to other cultures— it’s going to be a time of dark ages. How are we going to stop that if we shrug our shoulders? That is insane to me. But I’m not going to be like, ‘Hey, global governments and CEOs, end your love of greed and embrace the warmth of love.’ They’d be like, ‘OK, smoke some more weed you fucking hippie.’"
