Jeri Why Protest Songs Against DJT won't work (95* d) RE: Why Protest Songs Against DJT won't work 15 Mar 17


Peggy Seeger's fine, but not so much the awkward, non-parsing, and difficult-to-translate to English re-writes of verses. Just idiotic. Or alcohol stupidified. Dunno.

The vitriol, disdain, outright hatred can be over-the-top at times. Maybe not something I can stand to read much of. But people gonna creat the songs anyway, and nobody can do anything about it. Also, every time Trump says or does something, it's a new opportunity. While a constant stream of "this guy's a destructive, misogynistic, egotistical psycho/sociopathic jerk" can get old, it seems fairly appropriate for Trump.

Also, the similarity between Hitler and Trump would probably make a good topic for a BS thread, down where the un-cookied trolls can't post. As far as I can see, Hitler was allowed to have a lot of power, wanted to do Bad Things with it, and the public/the world allowed him to (for a while), and then he died. So far, Trump has only had the opportunity to get to the second step. Give him time... and a public that closes their eyes, stops their ears, closes their mouths and never dares. (And gets told not to sing THOSE songs.)
