Azza Bamboo posted:Are there any socialist songs that aren't superimposed onto the tune of other more famous songs or really crudely translated from Russian? Depending on your feelings of punk rock & metal, god yes. Far from their best song, but Propagandhi - The Only Good Fascist Is A Very Dead Fascist Somewhat more mature & nuanced take by the same band, Victory Lap from their last record "When the free-market Fundamentalist steps on a roadside bomb outside Kandahār Bleeding to death I swear to Ayn Rand I’ll ask if he needs an invisible hand" Iskra are a Canadian band playing a cross of crust punk & black metal with an openly anarchist message & on top of that are loving dope There is boatloads of this poo poo, there used to be a great blogspot, r-a-b-m.blogspot.com but it seems to have been replaced by a Reddit, but it's all Red & Anarchist Black Metal, which is all poo poo very much inside my wheelhouse.

Perhaps you guys can help. I already know most of my clp hate me, and that's fine, because I open my big tap too much. But this afternoon I was phonebanking and got into a great conversation with a guy who hasn't voted in years, and talked him into voting labour. All the while, the secretary was giving me the stink eye. When I ended the call, I sighed and asked her what was wrong. "You were canvassing. That's not allowed" "He asked question, I answered, and brought him into the fold" "You should be following the script, it's right there on your laptop screen" "Quite right. Did you vote labour y/n, will you vote labour y/n. Doesn't tell you much, but with my listening and falsifying skills he, and his wife will vote labour, I'd call that a win, he didn't even want to talk to me at first" " it's against purdah rules, on the eve of an election" " Give over, it is not" That was that, until later she said " I suppose we'll need you tomorrow. What time? We're here from 8AM " i bridled, but remained calm "I wont be, need to get blood tests. I'll call you when I'm done. Is your number xxx" "Yes, but I'm famous for not picking up my phone" " Dont worry about that, my mums just as bad." At this point, the election agent intervenes " ACTUALLY, I consider it objectionable that you liken women of a certain age to your mother. It's like when I worked and people likened me to their wives. Your misogyny is disgusting" I had a million answers to this, but I was so floored by the accusation I kept shtum. Was I the monster? If so, my apology will be fulsome and sincere. It made me feel terrible for something that was not my intent. I'm a gay man, if I wanted to throw shade, I know how.

OwlFancier posted:How come? Re election before 2020 - because if it's tory minority government he'll get nothing through, if majority govt, things will deteriorate so rapidly that there'll be anarchy on the streets. I remember the Brixton /Toxteth / Bristol riots in the early - mid 80s. I know this track was a bit before the riots (1979) but there was something in the air (Thatcher just elected, we'd had Crisis What Crisis - except Callaghan never said that - we'd just had The Bins, the fire brigade had been on strike for about 7 weeks, unburied bodies piling up in mortuaries.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcW8VNwYvL0 and this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCkNu9OxThc Don't forget we had riots as recently as August 2011!

goddamnedtwisto posted:This is mainly because almost nobody actually writes songs designed to be sung en masse by amateurs any more, of course - 50,000 pissed up Cockneys aren't going to be able to sing a Kanye West tune (yes, I'm showing my age by that being the only contemporary artist I can name off the top of my head) because he wrote that for him to sing on his own, but give them a schmaltzy Tin Pan Alley waltz - written, of course, for the music hall crowd to sing along with - and all of a sudden a bunch of blokes who think drinking non-carbonated alcohol is dangerously effeminate are bellowing about pretty bubbles at the top of their lungs. Now I'm going to have a little guitar geek out about this (Please humour me, I've had a poo poo day). There is a recent (ish, about ten years ago) instance of somebody writing a song designed to be sung en masse by amateurs. Joe Satriani is an instrumental guitar player. He sometimes has lyrics in his music but the guy really does not have much of a singing voice. He wrote "Crowd Chant" specifically so he could have something to play at shows where the crowd could join in as he'd noticed audiences would sometimes do this anyway and chant the melodies to some of his more popular tracks. There are no words, its just "Oh' and "Woah" in varying inflections and volume, which has the added bonus of being able to be chanted by any audience, anywhere in the world, because there's no language barrier. Its actually pretty good and having been in the audience for it once, was super fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyPIyghjEec

Oh jesus. Just walked into the local cheap bar, got a drink, sat down, and all this chinless tits in gilettes and unibond hair parade in. At the first guffaw I realise. It's the young conservatives. I'm very lucky they sat next to me. That way I know it's their victory party. And here's me without a sharp object.

Another lurker emerging to say thank you to the UKMT. Seeing everyone everyone here posting about canvassing gave me that final push to actually go out into the world and talk to people about the election instead of just seething at the newspaper headlines every morning. Even if everything goes to poo poo tomorrow and I have to spend another 5 years explaining to people that the mental health services they need don't actually exist I'll be able to remind myself that better things are in fact possible.

I mean even if it's the former, I don't really see how it's a big deal. You were trying to be helpful and related something to your personal life, it's obviously not disgusting misogyny by any stretch
