Sonic Youth - Youth Against Fascism

[@rodrigopinheiro2249]

I bought this album 25 years ago and i never though that facism would be a real menace again here in Brazil. So, here we're in 2018.... it makes sense even more nowadays.

@@fmjr10 If you can't see the trend toward fascism in the current president then you are delusional. From my observation all of the hate is from he and his followers who seem to think that his presidency grants them permission to act on their worst racist, bigoted, and xenophobic inclinations (Remember Charlottesville?). Trump is the fascist. He sidles up to fellow fascists and aspiring fascists like Putin, Xi, Erdogan, Duterte and Bolsonaro. Given that list, I would say that yes "fascism is running rampantin 2020". Meanwhile antifa (aka anti-fascists) has become a favorite scapegoat for idiots like Trump and certain moronic pundits as a fearmongering tactic, yet when the administration tried to label them "terrorists" the FBI found no evidence that they were behind any of the recent violence. What kind of President believes Putin over his own intelligence agencies? What kind of president consistently vilifies a critical media on a regular basis? What kind of president intentionally gaslights his opponents and consistenly use divisive rhetoric in response to national crises? A FASCIST one! Check your sources and wake up.
