Post your favorite /lefty/ songs
I believe this song did a great job with mixing nihilism with sadomasochism, they took a great look on how the government try to interfere with even your private sexual life
"Even today in the United States, similar to the outdated laws against homosexuality, there are various state laws against practicing any BDSM-associated activity. That is, even using a whip or handcuffs to play with your spouse (even with their full consent!) can land you in jail, or in other states merely selling such paraphernalia (such as a frat paddle or nipple clips) is a heavy offense. This stems from the original association with prostitution - it was thought at the time that no one would be willing to participate in gratifying such "perverted" desires without being paid for it. For this reason, it became yet another consenting-adult, victimless-crime prosecuted by law"
Velvet underground looked deeper into nihilism with many of their other songs

Just discovered The Redskins recently and been listening to their album a lot. It's not often that you find ideologically pure music that's actually fun to listen to, but they did it. Plus they were SWP members in the 80's.

I don't like hardly any 'leftist' music genres (I've tried punk, folk, left country, bleh) so I'll stick with mostly vaguely anticapitalist mainstream stuff

so it's like inflicting pain to prove your existence?
makes sense, a lot of sense
I am very ready for everybody to call me a faggot for self-harming, but after my early teens, I couldn't feel anything. It didn't feel like anything that mattered to me would ever matter to anybody else. If I wanted to grow and become an adult, I would have to leave everything I believed in behind. I would have to change my way of thinking. I would have to change which memories I considered important. Although I would never truly die, the self I cared about would cease to exist.
I had never heard of the Ship of Theseus or any of those fun analogies. I was just sitting in my bed at night, thinking about how the only solution to my problems was to kill myself, or, alternatively, to kill myself.
I was right, in a weird way. Being humiliated by my peers, and seeing how little my family understood, and how little they cared when they did understand changed me forever. I don't really remember how I was back then. It pushed me into that horrible, caustic way of thinking, and the animal inside me knew that I was not facing some horrible predator, that I was being subjected to conditioning, and lied to.
When I cut open my skin, logic was not involved. It just activated another part of my nervous system. Something was happening. There was blood. It showed me that I was not rational, and that my thoughts were triggered in response to my emotions, not the other way around. Even without my words, without my narrative, without the approval of others, I persisted underneath.

Original version is better tho
I love that swedish anti-vietnam war song about the farmer and the commie.
I listen a lot to the Clash as well as Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros.

I think their songs are pretty anti-capitalist but without being preachy, whinny or downright cringy like RATM.
I recently found this disco record
The Advanced Workers With The Anti-Imperialist Singers

I've been listening to a lot of Black Flag, Dead Boys, Adolescents, TSOL, Radio Birdman, and Stooges lately. Not necessarily leftist, but pretty good bands.

You should listen to Phil oachs then
There sure is comrade
And some faggots still believe that negros are not smart , damn
This band sings for "direct action" that's what i mostly love about them
RATM would probably claim to be anarcho-greenie if they were still around, the clash is great though , they are both great
This song helped me recognize

Also i would like to add

It's so easy for you to just keep on dismissing

==Rather be forgotten than remembered for giving head== this line gives me a boner

Just listen to capdown , they're artistic as fuck also refused
youtube.com
anti-capitalist bars
Good taste comrade.
My personal favorite Clash line:
When they kick out your front door,
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head,
or on the trigger off your gun.
When the law break in,
how you gonna go?
Shot down on the pavement.
or waiting in death row?
Bratty good tankie black metal.
But a reminder capdown denounced the slight traces of radicalism their music once contained signed to sony, got dropped aka sellouts
the arts are a bourgeoisie crafted distraction from the cancer of capitalism and your own conditions
"If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want To Be Part of Your Revolution”
I randomly came across this recently
youtube.com
sort of get the sentiment, but fuck if that isn't the most liberal sentence ever uttered
It is , the difference is probably the era , i think i can hear a similar quote in our time by someone like katy Perry / lady gaga but the difference is who said it , you can take it the way you want
Literally the first thing I'd do if I had a time machine would be to go back to the day of his death, give him a hug, and try to convince not to kill himself.

Anyone know the song from this?
