AW: [-empyre-] original form



would it be dangerous to say, that www.rentagerman.de has been
influenced by www.rentanegro.com ?
no, that´s not dangerous. 5 million unemployed german europeans cannot
fight against slaver<y.

art is not about being proud of the origin. art is about taking the risk
of reactions..
