@CostlyFob93984 because the left is the opposite of that. They are fascism limiting what people can or can't. People are racist well fuck but they are still allow to say what they want but they racist too because discriminate white. Hold anybody down because of their race is racist
@@zachbohemian maybe instead of defending rights of racist to be racist, start opposing biggest looting ever taking place right now in United States. You know, the working class being systemically looted by corporate overlords? Gosh, liberals and conservatives are such crybabies. You have enough guns to give all the power to the people, but instead you prefer to bootlick people, who want to send your children to schools during deadly pandemic.

@@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.
@@fmjr10 Fascism is not a blanket term for hate and violence but a specific ideology, and its talking points are being more and more common and normalized. Read ur-fascism or something.
it was about the present when it came out, too. many of the references were to then present-day issues. this fascism we have now has been growing for awhile.

+Eibhlin mcm: The "Dirty" album peaked at #83 on the Billboard Top 200, which most likely makes it the highest charting he ever played on in his career. "Red Medicine", Fugazi's highest-charting album stopped at #126, "End Hits" at #131, "The Argument" at #151 and "In On The Kill Taker" at #153. That was as good as he got.
Sonic Youth’s ‘Youth Against Fascism’ and Reagan Youth’s ‘Down with New Aryans’ are my two favourite anti-fascist songs: ruclips.net/video/Fnf-eUjxJYI/видео.html
Actually... it's lined with an overbearing state controlled media telling you how to think, who to "cancel", and what thoughts are acceptable... and with an under-educated irrational and emotionally unhinged youth who think they are on the side of justice when they are really being controlled be elaborate psy-ops run from within the globalist power structure.... "lookin at YOU CNN!"
@Arthur Frayn Ham fisted they may be, yes... but by elaborate I meant huge and pervasive. Like, it's hardly even possible to express a conservative belief on Twitter. And yet these kids think they're so "punk" and "raging against the machine" when in reality, they are perfect little cogs in the machine functioning PRECISELY how Big Brother programmed them to behave. It's fucking SAD, dawg... y'know?

More relevant today more than ever
never stops....
And more so today
And fing more today .
anti fascist 🙋🏻♀️
Well it's today for me know, our today's are all the same I guess
Fascists of the future will call themselves antifascists.
Bass sounds incredible ! Really nailed this to track solid, epic sound! What alternative is all about.
I swear sonic youth hires the best artists both for their mvs and covers
That's because kim was a visual artist first, went to art school. It's that good taste
No. Most of their stuff - DIY

Fight Fascism - Love Sonic Youth
Why do some people call sonic youth hipster music? I've never met a hipster who likes sonic youth
Ive never met a hipster...
I’ve met hipsters that say they do. Ask them to name a song and you realize that, no, they do not
I actually never met one who does not ...
they only like the goo tshirt with Pettibon's design
Probably explains why I hate hipsters
Let's take time to appreciate that everything Sonic Youth were warning us about 30 years ago is happening now....
It was happening back then, too. You just weren't paying attention

Progressism is the new fascism with its cancel culture, hating behaviors, blind ideology, pack harassment and censorship abuse.
Sonic Youth's music has aged so well.
Thurston, Kim, Lee and Steve are still making great music to this day which is very refreshing. They’ve given us 40 years of sonic bliss.
Indeed it has!
Yeah it has!
Music yes, lyrics no.

Love Kim s bass sound and her attitute
this bass line is just incredible, hooks you in and haunts you forever...
one of the best and most influential bands in the last 30 years
Sonic youth tem uma influência grande na música tem muita coisa espetacular!!! Grande progressor e grande influência pro grunge!!
This is a ridiculously catchy song
More relevant today than it was when it was released. Thurston is certainly not Bob Dylan but he nailed it on this one.
He's indeed not Bob Dylan, in that he's not a massive hypocrite.
Thank God he’s not Dylan. Sonic Youth are way better than him.

So very ahead of their time. "I believe Anita Hill!" 😮
a song that is poignant today as its original release in the 1990s. A classic anti racism song from one of the pioneers of grunge music
It's not grunge music, it's noise rock
Alternative rock/noise rock
if ask me now whose are my personal favourite bands first 2 it woyld be Sonic Youth and The Kinks
Their best song, never fails to lift me up, love that riff. The band at their peak and what a great time to be young.
Fantastic song....
I love this song ♥.♥

@@spacejunk1172Obvio, tem tudo haver com o contexto político do Brasil e inclusive o Lee Ranaldo postou "Ele Não" no instagram dele

sonic youth was one of the first ones to become apart of that kind of attitude. This song wasn't made yesterday.
holy shit, i have no words, when i was a kid this song was about history, now we got 2016 and its about the present
Exactly... :-/

The LOUDEST BAND EVER. I wore ear plugs and I'm still half deaf on one side of my head. Still love them to pieces, though : )

This is song has a big middle finger to the government! It was written when bush sr. was in office and years later still relevant when "W" was in office!
This song is 30 years old. 30 years later, the USA is getting closer to becoming a fascist empire.

30 years old and all it did was predict the future. That's all. Boundless masterpiece

Wonderful song!!
some themes define a band. this is one.
