[RetsnomThePhilo]

WoW......

[Fanta666]

Gets better with every listen.

[ComradeLer]

Awesome song my Anarchist Comrades! I am going to listen to some more Anarchist music. If I may borrow a quote from my ideological leader, Marx, 'Workers of the world, Unite!'

[monkeybars101]

amazing what are the chords? I wanna jam it!

[weekweekday1]

yal mfers talk like you're gonna actually do something but nothing has changed, nothing will ever change unless people are united, im not holding my breath

[Fanta666]

@weekweekday1 self fulfilling prophecies are public enemy #1

[Crustysimpletons]

Oh but aint that amerika.

[Joeri12]

When I start my revolution I'm definetely gonna play this song.

[dpvirk]

@Joeri1

you mean OUR revolution :)

[TheNewAnarch]

Where did you get this version? I like it a lot more than the version I have :P

[uptehpunxxx]

this would be a good song if his breathing wasnt so obnoxious/

[juno660]

The truth is never pleasant to hear. We will never be free until we see through the anesthetization-propaganda used by the oligarchic state and its bourgeoisie clients to keep us pacified, loyal to our oppressors, and brainwashed consumers of the third world labor camps.

[HasteKilledCreativty]

@DeathToAmerikkka so then what are you? your name is death to america so i assume your not a fan of capatilism

[RealEros1]

Does a anarchist world have to be atheist?

Or would you guys allow christians and buddist and stuff in your world

cause in the spanish civil war there burnt chruches so am just curious.

[PHISHjohnsonPHISH]

@RealEros1 theres no rules in anarchy, so do what you want

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@PHISHjohnsonPHISH Now hold on- there's no masters in anarchy, but basic common sense rules and justice always apply. You can't oppress, kill, and rape in anarchism. That would be against the entire point. Non-aggression and non-hierarchy.

[PHISHjohnsonPHISH]

@CrawdaddyJoe i didn't know that but thank you though because i just thought it was chaos. i haven't studied it much but i really want to

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@RealEros1 To be fair, the Catholic church was helping the fascists. Most modern anarchists are not so militantly anti-religious.

[RealEros1]

@CrawdaddyJoe The catholics are terrible in everything and should not be seen as holy and sadly cause of them most see God as hateful now,but it isn't the point I was bringing.

Anarchism seems to be very vocal and seems to preach peace and freedom so if were to ensure a true order why not allow the christians and religious?

After all the catholics will be gone and so would the false messiahs people look up too.

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@RealEros1 Well, I wouldn't be so harsh to Catholics. It's a very diverse faith that includes many sects based on charity, community, and solidarity. I live right next to a Benedictine Monastery, and they are a very accepting and kind people. Some bad apples, certainly, and church hierarchy is no picnic, but I take a generally kind view, after so much exposure.

[RealEros1]

@CrawdaddyJoe I was speaking of how they hijacked christianty not the people or the bible but the false order which hides itself as a "holy" order as a supporter of God myself their one of the many false orders out there.

That's all :)

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@RealEros1

As I said, nowadays, most anarchists are alright with people being religious, so long as they don't attempt to enforce theocratic rules. Back then, though, anarchism was still very closely tied to Marxism (which used to be anti-authoritarian before the Bolsheviks screwed it all up), and regarded the Church as another institution of control, like the State and the class structure.

[RealEros1]

@CrawdaddyJoe Thanks for answering man so how is anarchism going to reach the masses?

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@RealEros1 Well, that's an issue of some debate within the community. Some anarchists try to reach 'the masses' through zines, articles, or books. Others try to do it through protests or propaganda of the deed. Still others attempt to build bridges with other social movements. Others still use music, or like myself simply go from person to person and explain what anarchism is and stands for (though my goal is clarification, not necessarily recruitment).

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@RealEros1Others try to build anarchist institutions within their own communities. Many do more than one of these. Anarchism is a truly grassroots movement that doesn't need so much to reach the masses as to spread from those masses. One of the important aspects is the idea of abolishing the paradigm of 'masses' and elites in the first place and creating networks of communities.

[RealEros1]

@CrawdaddyJoe Great words my friend I will look into anarchism for more depth.

[evanwat]

What album is this from?

[StrangeWorld18]

@DeathToAmerikkka lol

[bionlg]

@DeathToAmerikkka ...er... what? I like your spelling. If im right you're trying to say anarchists are pussies. How are we pussies when we're the ones standing up for what we believe in? The ones willing to stare the state in the eye and tell them to stop this corruption.

[salamander4118]

nice !!!

[auto166298]

bravo ryan! wish we could get riot folk cds in the uk.

[moonfariyriver]

[Anarchofolkpunk9]

Songs like these give me hope for this world that seems to be shattering over and over again.

[Zea107]

Encapsulating lyrics indeed.

[unionfallen]

damn, this is a great song...folk really means something again...really cool that its not really anthemy either... it the band called Riot Folk?

[krodosk8r]

riot folk is a collective of folk artists, and it's also a music genre. Ryan Harvey is the name of the artist.

[Nixkeks]

Love this version even more than the original one...

[wafflecakes219]

those have to be the best lyrics i've ever heard

[KenCat1337]

Making folk a threat again!

Peace, justice, anarchy, love, life and liberation!

[applegren32]

kencat!!

its xdumbfuckx

solidarity comrade!

[KenCat1337]

Woah, solidarity comrade!

[kirstenk14]

This is awesome. Where did you get this version? I have a different version of this song from his split with Tom Frampton but this one seems like it has even more urgency.

[CrisFake1]

love the lyrics and love the song

[rick712000]

Kick Ass!!!

[applegren32]

thank you comrade!!

long live libertarian communism.

[PressureDrop89]

Great song!

Thanks for uploading!

[AnkanDIF]

Great song comrade! I <3 Black Bloc!

[Gettinghitonattheban]

@AnkanDIF

Black Bloc is full of FBI funded thugs.

[DeadTime34]

@Gettinghitonattheban

a black bloc is a tactic not an organization

[CrawdaddyJoe]

@Gettinghitonattheban I'm getting sick of this. I don't do the Black Bloc, but come on. If a group is repeatedly being infiltrated, we shouldn't shun them. We should help them and show them solidarity in the fight against infiltrators.

[gagandshit]

love it
