12. Music to experience while reflecting on genocide

Very melancholy. I was absorbed in it about a week ago, very deep into it in fact. Suddenly there was an advertisement. Bad enough in itself , very intrusive. But it was a freaking ad for fucking trump. Some young geek with glasses explaining the high crimes of the Democrats and Hillary. I had listened to this same music (same link) for over a year without this problem intrusion.

The effect was mind shattering. I have not tried it since to see if it is embedded or just a random experience. I have been exploring other music on you tube, from classical guitar to Welsh pipes and Scottish ballads without a trump ad.

I found it odd.

Edit to add: I am listening now.. ad at ca 9:39 or so. Is for Shen Yun dancers. NOT fucking trump.
