There are some individuals in the world, like Daniel Kahn, who manage to word the facets of the dystopian world we live in, just so well. Whether we are on the same side of the political spectrum, young or old, this pipeline or that one - we are all left with a radical liberty in a world of wolves. So regardless of our relation to each other, we live in an age that will see us shape our world anew. I wish you, and whomever around you the best of luck. World War 3 is going to get much bigger than this still. And God only knows what will happen.

Uhh this is klezmer

@@BLOMBO-ENJOYER I know. But it shares some of the aspects. It was more of a joke.

@@DerDrako oh ok sorry if I came off a bit snarky

@@BLOMBO-ENJOYER Dont worry, I myself have often problems to understand what the jokes are and what just comments from unknowing people are. Or just bots. :D

I totally agree

No they are not saying unions are incompetent/useless. It is a socialist song so it's a socialist critique of unions. Specifically, that unions do not end or crush capital. As long as capital is prevalent workers will always be hungry broke and thrown away, that's how capital works. If capital sill exists than the work produces by the union members still produces houses cars and other shit for the rich's benefit because they are making profits. Its not saying unions are unless its saying they're not the answer to the workers problems. Which is correct. Also I don't understand how you read ""There'll be work for every hand In a new and better land, In a new and better land"" as abandoning the struggle. They are saying that in a workers society no one will go unemployed (this is the song about the unemployed after all) and that things will be better for workers in the future. This is basic things that socialists say. Is it a more utopian rhetoric? Sure. But Marx himself has acknowledged that there will be no unemployment in a workers society. So I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion you did.

Your read on the unions is interesting. I thought the line referred to the more bureaucratic and concessionist unions and not the concept of unions being somewhat reactionary in the ml sense, either way it works@@Zodiezzz

I mean zionism was always a settler colonial ideology and throughout history zionists seeked cooperation with British Empire.

I think it's a wordplay on Sher, wich is a type of Yiddish dance
