about

Discontent is an online platform created by Bonnie Prince Bob, designed to serve as a hub for arts, music, culture, and politics, particularly for the working-class communities in Scotland. The idea emerged as a response to the need for a space that genuinely reflects the experiences, voices, and concerns of ordinary people, rather than the elite or mainstream narratives often seen in traditional media.

At its core, Discontent is about giving a voice to those who feel marginalised or underrepresented in society. The platform hosts a wide range of content, including articles, opinion pieces, interviews, and creative works, all aimed at fostering a sense of community and solidarity among its audience. It covers a broad spectrum of topics, from local and national politics to music and visual arts, all through the lens of working-class perspectives.

Bonnie Prince Bob, the creator of Discontent, has long been an advocate for class consciousness and has used his platform to amplify the voices of those who are often unheard.

His vision for Discontent is to create a space that not only entertains but also educates and inspires action. The platform encourages critical thinking and open dialogue on issues that matter to the working class, from economic inequality to cultural representation.

By focusing on both local and global issues, Discontent provides a unique blend of content that is both relevant and relatable, making it a vital resource for anyone interested in the intersection of arts, culture, and politics in Scotland today.
