Chat Pile - Why (Official Audio) 

Hope you’re doing alright.

Apparently, they also partnered with a beer company to make their own beer. Proceeds go to unhoused support organizations.

A roof over your head is often seen as a human right.

I was homeless for 7 years ,had scabies,abscesses ,got kidnapped and raped in that time. it was so fucking cold at night I often diddrugs to stay awake all night as it was safer and warmer to sleep in the daytime in a park I woul chain smoke myself to sleep just to have warmth in my lungs . I was pretty scarred as an abused kid from violent and verbally abusive parent and turned to drugs at age 14 to cope with PTSD and not known to me until later -several misdiagnosed mental illness stuff I was heavily drugged from age 18-19 on Thorazine ,lithium,Prozac and Stelazine and told I would never be able to get a job or function in society pretty heavy shit to tell an 18 year old who was severely abused as a teen so I believed it in my gut for decades (that may have been triggered behavior- the adhd the depression the anxiety attacks ,the paranoia the from trauma -.im Still uncertain if that’s the primary cause as I unravel my issues or if those symptoms were caused by the abuse or a bit of both chemically in my brain with therapy and use of therapeutic psychedelics instead of psych meds (I I know some people go through worse and don’t do drugs but I had that button in my brain once pushed when I first did drugs that made me want more and more ,my mom was a junkie too . I was homeless from age 19-26 I’m writing a book about it It was fucking intense and very hard and very scary and very hopeless ,I was invisible to the public ,I floated like ghost around the public like I didn’t exist

@@nathanwilliams3049 My time was thankfully not that long, but your strength is genuinely admirable. I came from a rough place too and ended up on the streets bc I had nowhere to go after being taken to a mental hospital. Once I got myself on my feet, I still made sure to keep up with those I met who were still in it. My boy W lived on the street for about 2 years and had the same experience you did. I gotta go through insanely rigorous therapy myself and found meds that work for me. I'm so thankful I'm here now, but I'll never walk past a homeless person with ignorance again. I make sure to say "hey" every time and offer them a smoke. I wish you the absolute best, my friend, and hope your journey is a little easier from here on out ♥️

chill bro. its true homelessness is fucked up. but some people who get on the street choose to stay on the streets since they do not want to get rid of their problems or get help. i do not have the stats but i think most people who want to get off the streets do eventually.

@@haunts3479 if someone has completely lost the will to fix the issues that are clearly destroying their lives, I’d chalk that under mental health. It’s not a moral failing.

@@mopman527 its not just losing the will. its just they do not want to. like drug use, some homeless choose to stay for drugs. But most who are on the streets long term have drug problem, mental problem, criminal problem.

...I know alot of people who use drugs and are housed?

@@haunts3479 "some people" "i do not have the stats" "chill bro"

knew it

You rule.

Based

You're not too soft-hearted. The world needs more empathy and care.

I've been trying to find a way to describe Chatpile, it's like there's this really unsettling feeling the guitar riffs give off

The delivery of "it's a fucking tragedy" hits me in my actual soul.

@@radiosurgery1802 That's the highlight for me as well. He's so pissed off and disappointed. Makes you feel ashamed of yourself.

It’s worse than that: it’s a tornado siren. Imagine being caught in severe weather, with quarter-size hail piercing your tent and a twister bearing down on you, and you can’t go inside to safety.

I couldn’t imagine scrambling to find shelter if that siren went off

Love your comment. Also wanting to share that my job is working with homeless individuals and getting them housed. Our philosophy is housing first. I work with other people who do the same and care so much and do great work. So, just letting you know while there's always more to be done, there's definitely people doing what they can for disenfranchised humans.

Wow you're edgy, here's the attn you want

Think about this almost everyday to the point I get physically sick to my stomach whenever I can’t give an unhoused person money when I pass them on the street. I live in an area that’s been struggling with homelessness for years so i know unhoused people who’ve been on the streets for YEARS and have seen them degrade in ways I can’t even fathom. I always have at least $5 on me whenever I go outside but even that is hard to achieve sometimes since I make less than 35k a year. We truly live in a hellscape of our own institutions making, but there are always people doing the work that must be done and I truly commend them and work with them as much as I can. I wish all people have your level of compassion and understanding, even if you might consider it to be basic.

Fuck yeah brother

Well said comrade

I work with vulnerable people and really hope that you've never expressed the whole "you make me feel lucky" thing to a homeless person. It'd be analogous to saying "pheeew! thanks for being fucked; it makes me not take my luck for granted".

@@abon1364Wait, does anyone actually say that to homeless folks? If so, what the actual fuck? How clueless and lacking in basic empathy do they have to be?

This is cool but not heavier than anything off of the first 3 Morbid Angel albums lmaooo

@@blastbeetb.3045 I’m talking about the plaintive heaviness of the lyrics, not the actual music. Also, the raw vocals are way heavier than any death metal affectation

@@unomachine not heavier than gorguts or ulcerate tho

@@enemyofthesun000 Keep naming “heavier” death metal bands if you’d like. That’s not the point. This is emotionally heavier than anything put out by death metal bands.

Yeah, for four-year-olds.

Keep up the compassionate work

Don't give up!! You're doing good work

yeah me too some times

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism ​@@coldoutkast

Communism killed more people than monarchies.

@@coldoutkastcrazy how you have to participate in capitalism to live in a capitalist society 🤯🤯🤯

Yeah

Holy shit I didn't get that reference. That's really horrifying

@@Dusty.Spinster Every Saturday at noon, and nonstop from March to June, eh? Haha!

@@ToniAllen I'm from the PNW where the weather is incredibly mild. There's a wind storm every ten to twenty years, or a few days a year it might get cold enough to be dangerous outside. I hear a lot of fan theories about why the PNW has such a high population of homeless folk. Usually the theories revolve around some kind of open arms leftist policy. Naw, camping is illegal and unhomed folk are harassed by cops just like anywhere else. Its just at the very least, there are no fucking tornados or hurricanes to run from. God damn.

@@Dusty.Spinster Ah. I'm from Oklahoma (where Chat Pile is from) and yeah. It's gotta be so scary when there's nowhere to go. I at least have a neighbor with a storm shelter.

I'm just learning about Chat Pile and KEN mode was the first thing I thought. And that's an amazing thing

Yes

My mom had a ringworm and that shit sucked.

Yes, both are a nightmare

Just go to your downtown area, there’s your video

@@thegoodtalk283 yep, am a bike courier downtown in my city, and the amount of tents I've seen on many blocks has been insane over the past few years. They problem was always there, but it's exploded since 2016, and with the pandemic even worse. Very depressing as well, especially when before I was doing bike courier stuff, I saw so many empty massive office buildings from tech companies and shit. Massive empty warehouses for future server infrastructure. The only answer to their "why" I have is Greed. Plain and simple.

that's from a ken mode song, awesome

Ken Mode Chat Pile split would be world ending

@@thc_freebaser That's the best reason for it to happen. Expedite the process.

landlord pile

@@allthelittleworms unironically great band name as well

Amen and pass the ammunition

The great leader

Now China grew up and guess what has a lot more vacant homes than people ;P

Was waiting for this

Kiss is goated.

I’m so lucky to live I okc and see this greatness firsthand.

What a powerful and empathetic song. It really captures a feeling.

They can, he's pissed that some are forced too because there's not enough fucking resources

Young man, theres a place you can go.
