Oh, Penguin Egg, you are soooooo right! Yes, we in the white middle class met secretely in conclaves all over the western world 25 years ago with but one thought in mind: to concoct and promote a totally phony brand of music called "World Music" and foist it on people solely to make money and push our namby-pamby knee jerk liberal values down everyone's throat and dilute and destroy cultural heritages everywhere.

I can well recall the enthusiasm with which I and every other middle class white I knew then joined in this secret effort, and look how successful it's been! I relish the thought that we succeeded with our despicable plan so well.

I can't think of any white middle class person I know who wasn't in on the plot. We're all to blame, and we're proud of it. Go ahead...finger us! We don't care! We laugh at your feeble attempts to derail the train we have set in motion. We will bury you under an avalanche of mish-mash that has no real constituency and does not exist as a separate musical form or even as a loose umbrella. We will smother you with it.

Yes, we were all in on it. All of us. We are white, we are middle class, we are all irredeemably evil, and we are responsible for everything wrong that has ever been done to anyone else, and oh....it's sooooo obvious! Go, man, go! Tell the world all about it.
