Stifled

Stifled was created as El's final project in his first year of second college. Initially he wanted to use that time to finish Falsified Necessity, but he was told the exam board would reject that as a project. He had to make this instead; his lack of enthusiasm and the ridiculous time limit are apparent throughout it. It includes vocal takes noticeably below the  raising standard established on Falsified Necessity, and that is most apparent on the title track at the end. The song names and subject matter were initially penned for Album 3, and just picked at random from that list. Some of the songs are labelled "Stifled EP Version" because they may get rewritten and re-recorded at some point in the future.

The first track, Diversion, serves as just an intro. It consists entirely of synth sounds and a voiceover under a bunch of effects, which talks about "a disruption in the space-time continuum," referring to the fact this EP should never have existed. It leads directly into What Would Satisfy You?! A question asked to the wannabe overlords, censorship assholes, and anyone who treats vibrating air wrong as a CRIME. It is impossible to appease people like that if they just decide you're a raving lunatic because you can slightly raise your voice. They actually think that's shouting, which is a problem because THEY ACT LIKE IT'S A CRIME!!!!

The Problem was terminated because some CUNT somehow identified who El's father was WHEN EL NEVER PUBLISHED HIS ORIGINAL LEGAL NAME ON THE FUCKING INTERNET BECAUSE HE'S NOT A FUCKING RESET WHORE WHO ADVOCATES FOR THE DEATH OF PRIVACY, and treated the way he delivered lines in The Problem, disregarding what he was actually saying at the time (demanding that YOU prevent its imminent destruction after his Mac mini BRICKED ITSELF) as if it was equal in scope to MURDER!!!

After the first guitar solo in this song, the next section is directed straight at her. She took the lowest-quality part of The Problem, with the weakest delivery El ever had at that point, not even coming CLOSE to expressing anger at all, and treated it as if he had committed MURDER!!! People like that must genuinely think people who are capable of experi­enc­ing nega­tive emotion deserve to kill them­selves, so this song sardon­ic­ally asks what method of death would appease them, before turning that on its head and making the censorship whores the target. "Would it make you feel the same if I killed you instead?!"

In 2024, various "news sources"​[fuck you, they didn't cite their sources so I won't either] started saying the British government and army were gonna bring back national service (conscription) to force people into a war they knew nothing about and wanted no part in. If you join the army you will be forced to commit genocide on innocent people, most of whom do not deserve death, and it is NOT justifiable by saying you might kill someone who did de­serve it, no matter what they did in life. The deaths of people who did not deserve it will NEVER be justified by killing someone who did in the same operation.

The song Unwilling Conscripts opens with some army-related dickhead saying they'd have to bring back conscription to 'deter' some conflict, before accidentally revealing his true in­tent­ions by re­fer­ring to soldiers as money. In that interv­iew (which is unavailable in its un­edit­ed form and com­plete­ly un­cited by any "news sources" that might've men­tion­ed it​[fuck you, they didn't cite their sources so I won't either]) he specified Russia as the enemy without ex­plain­ing why. I doubt most people cared or even knew this was going on at the time, so the next sect­ion lit­er­al­ly starts with the line "Is there meant to be a war on?" It's followed by a recap of where this species' ignor­ance has come from, and then all of a sudden you're at war.

The sudden trans­ition from ignoring everything, in­cap­able of say­ing any­thing but "This is 1984," (an accurate de­pict­ion of EVERY­ONE who opposed shit like the great reset merely a couple of years before) to being forced at gun­point to commit geno­cide on inno­cent people you have no­thing to do with, is meant to be (time limits not­with­stand­ing) a horri­fy­ing de­pict­ion of what con­script­ion is like to people who would other­wise never be involved in any armed forces. You're just suddenly at war, you have no idea why, and you're being forced to kill inno­cent people be­cause if you don't the com­mand­er you never con­sent­ed to work under will kill you for insubordination. Before you know it, the war is over and you've sur­vived some­how. When you get home, how­ever, despite the fact liter­al­ly every­one KNOWS you were kid­nap­ped at gun­point and forced to do that, every­body thinks you went along willingly, com­mit­ted geno­cide will­ingly, and have abso­lute­ly no re­morse about it. That's the result of the "liars in power," as the song calls them, claim­ing it had to be done, pro­vid­ing a bull­shit phrase like "liberate that land," which would FOR SOME REASON make you think the soldiers went along will­ing­ly WHEN YOU KNOW THEY WERE FORCED INTO DOING IT AND NONE OF THEM WANT­ED TO BE THERE!!!! The soldiers are shun­ned at best and wish­ed death upon at worst, but that's ig­nor­ing the entirely possi­ble situa­tion where some rich ass­hole inter­jects saying "this land belongs to no-one," mean­ing the entire planet belongs to no-one, and then THE GENO­CIDE EXPANDS BEYOND SANITY AND ECLIPSES THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!! BECAUSE THAT CUNT HAS A LARGE NUMBER ATTACH­ED TO IT!!!!!

Financial Masochism is a different take on how retarded it is that you, YES, YOU, restrict what you're """allowed""" to do because some number is too low, MEAN­ING SOME ELECTRONS YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER MOVED WRONG!!! It's like you're all the submissive partner in an abusive BDSM relation­ship. The vast major­ity of you don't even know money's value­less be­cause of the Smith­sonian Agree­ment, WHICH HAS BEEN HIDDEN FROM US!!! More information in The Path to Murder, reset whore!

The term 'reset whore' refers to anyone who allows money to have an effect on their life. That enables shit like the great reset and people get­ting evict­ed be­cause 'they don't have enough money to afford their house'. That kind of atrocity is only possible be­cause YOU LOT allow it to be, and the fact you enjoy living like this knocks El sick. "As soon as you dis­obey, here comes the whip/​you lose your house/​here comes the GUN!!"

This song was intended to be two tracks before The Path to Murder on Falsified Necessity, to provide more con­text to why he's on that path, along with Absorb My Identity. However, it was decided at the last minute that this took it a step too far by insulting someone's entire way of life. The song does pro­vide accurate de­scrip­tions of this fucked up system of the RNG of doom, a theme that was SUPPOSED TO BE DESCRIBED IN THE PROBLEM WITH MONEY WHICH'LL NEVER EXIST BE­CAUSE OF WHAT IT WAS IN­TEND­ED TO OPPOSE!!!! There's also reference to those brainwave-tracking head­phones the WEF showcased in Davos 2023, in a scene where some­one gets fired be­cause they merely spoke to some­one once who went on to commit 'wire fraud', AND DIDN'T GET INVOLVED IN THAT OR KNOW IT WAS HAPPENING. The voice­over of that part of the pre­sent­ation also de­liber­ate­ly pointed out the pro­tagon­ist's fear of being fired be­cause she has feelings for a co­worker. THAT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU!!! YOU COULD LOSE YOUR JOB AND BY EXTENSION YOUR ENTIRE LIVELIHOOD BECAUSE YOU'RE CAPABLE OF FEEL­ING EMOTIONS!!!!! HOW CAN YOU LET SHIT LIKE THIS BE FORCED UPON YOU!?!!?? THE WANNA­BE OVER­LORDS WANT TO KILL LOVE AND IT IS FUCKING WORKING!!!!! El's plans for after Stifled (which'll never come to fruition be­cause em­ploy­ment will ruin them) are to create a record detail­ing all the reasons why LOVE IS DEAD.

Absorb My Identity is complicated. It deals with the emotion­­less norm's perception of autistic people from the per­spec­tive of some­one who's been likened to that. El's mother com­pared him to un­con­trol­lable cannibalistic beasts by claim­ing she thought he was autistic as a child, despite the fact she pro­ceed­ed to do absolutely nothing about it, while also using genuine­ly baseless autism accu­sa­tions as the only reason to send him to reset whore con­ver­sion therapy both times. Every­one who speaks about autistic people can have their view boil­ed down into the phrase "Let this retard die!" while also claim­ing autists have the best rela­tion­ships. Fuck them!! El Has only ever knew one person who he could talk to about being referred to as clinic­ally retarded, and he's never going to see her again. He laments that in this song, while also call­ing out the bitch boy's mother's bull­shit in this regard. The subject matter drifts all over the place because while he was making this record his thought process changed, suddenly LOSING TEN YEARS, and his ability to focus just shat­ter­ed one day.

If you have a neuro­diver­gence and you ack­now­ledge it in the presence of other people, those bird-pulling scum­bags will imme­di­ate­ly use the fact your brain isn't "normal" to in­valid­ate every­thing you say about any­thing important. Your 'retardation' will become the sole attri­bute of your person­al­ity whe­ther you like it or not. El's worked in the presence of autistic people and that was the only thing they could say about themselves, and it's not far-fetched to think every­thing ob­ject­ive they've ever said got dismissed no matter how correct it was. This point fails to come across be­cause these con­vo­luted lyrics keep jump­ing back and forth between the several topics mentioned. El's parents are failures and this is only to be empha­sised in The Path to Murder.

The final song, the epony­mously-named Stifled, is the embodiment of this release and why it's shit. When you listen to the song, you will know all about why this release is sub-par across the board. Most of this relates to El avoiding being dox­xed by his own family; time limits, en­forced by second college who took valu­able time away from the creation of Falsified Necessity; and what was on his mind at that time, including reset whore con­version therapy which killed the one thing he was good at, The Problem, WHICH IS STILL GONE, disillusion from most of the species, and the girl who taught El gratitude before she left. That was very important to him, and so it upsets him that he regressed to what he was before meeting her: apathetic emotionless scum like the rest of this species. He laments over the inescapable situation he and his sister have been forced into, WHICH COULD'VE BEEN MADE IMPOSSIBLE IF YOU DIDN'T LET THE PROBLEM GET ERASED!!!!! YOU HAD PLENTY OF FUCKING WARNING YET YOU DID FUCK ALL TO STOP THAT!!!!!
