It's been less than a year since I spammed /leftypol/ with RATM but I was right the first time, that half of the userbase to even know what RATM is. Shit is crazy. How the fuck is RATM not universally talked about. Even right-wingers love RATM. They made anthems about killing Whitey that everyone got down to. I hear them play the opening lick to "Settle For Nothing" on NPR repeatedly since this Trump term. I heard them play Down Rodeo which is the kill Whitey song, at the NHL Championships multiple times. Fuck the rest of the band, but fuck Zack too at this point.

Sources in Iran revealed Monday afternoon that article 14 of the Memorandum of Understanding imposes a 60 day moratorium on Platner posting

They still stunt on everyone that came after them. I was always disapointed with them since I was a fan. They broke up just before Bush and the rest of the band is a joke, Zack did One Day As A Lion which was ok, but so many years ago now. Leftists always peter out after their youth.

No one is really taking advantage of the thirst for an anti-establishment movement and candidates but are left with mediocrity and the clownshow. Maybe it is just hindsight but it felt like the 1920s and 1930s had more mature movements and options but then again 1917 just happened and the old order turned upside down in Europe with the fall of so many dynasties that a replacement had to be made. I can see why some people see Platner as a stepping stone due to WWI populist movements having vets in the forefront

"Establishment" is code for the Smug Rich. Americans are trained to ignore actual class position and so they reframe everything in cultural terms. They see Trump and Planter as the uncouth people who will go into the fancy restaurant and embarrass the educated rich who speak french because they vacation in Europe every summer. They imagine Trump as Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack with Platner as Bill Murray.

I finally read Hinterland after hearing about it for nearly a decade. Neel's writing style reminds me of the kind of geologic or tectonic feel of Mike Davis' writing of the economic configuration of Burgerland, but with autobiographic complaining about the "academic left" of last decade. Greatly appreciated his observation that class struggle is bubbling in the decaying residential-logistical patchworks of the sprawling Sunbelt cities and its input in the BLM wave.

>punk rock"
>RATM

Your fed is showing. Rage Against The Machine does cover a lot of these same topics lyrically, but the underground definitely goes deeper into the realms of what's unacceptable within mainstream morality. Punk and Hardcore bands were doing fund raisers for saboteurs and the IRA since the 90s. Go ask the FBI how many hardcore and crust bands they began looking into 1990s, for albums like "destroy the machines" or "endless jihad". Go ask the punk anarchist skinhead who shot and killed a neo nazi with his SKS in portland (early 90s), then fled to Mexico by freight train. One of hardcore punk's biggest videographer is front page on the canary mission (the zionist doxing site), and the symbol of his business is a hammer and sickle. The scene loves and welcomes him. Now imagine if he had a IDF logo, and posted nazbol shit instead of spammed Fanon? These scenes would chase him out. Real punk, hardcore is basically worker's insurgent noise, and if it doesn't lean Anarchist/Maoist, then it usually at the least leans pure working class nihilism. Ireland is a very punk nation, and it could be argued the Irish rebel music leans more punk than other national liberation rebel songs.

ignore all other replies. it's the ideological structure in which they are in. they never develop or developed nor plan to to develop critical thinking. by that, they end up not in a movement, but in a follow-the-leader herd.
it's been sociologically proven that right wingers are submissive to authority (or to whatever they consider authority, in their cases, rich people), thus they may know their leader is a pedophile, but they stay loyal as long they think they are protected/and/or can be one of the leaders of the movement. while others ideologies tend to follow science, or more exactly, evidence-based studies.
Some studies to ponder:
Introductory wikipedia page, starter:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_authoritarianism

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886907001201
>A short version of the Right-Wing Authoritarianism (RWA) Scale
Relevant note:
>According to Altemeyer, right-wing authoritarianism comprises three interrelated attitudinal clusters: authoritarian submission (uncritical subjection to authority), authoritarian aggression (feeling of aggression towards norm violators) and conventionalism (strict adherence to conventional norms and values)

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24972942/ (sci hub: https://sci-hub.ru/10.1177/0146167214538672)
>Political Conservatives' Affinity for Obedience to Authority Is Loyal, Not Blind
Key note:
>Obedience to conservative authorities . The authorities with the most (highest ranking)conservative agendas were religious authority (2.73), traditions (2.60), and commanding officer (1.45). Conservatives expressed more positive moral sentiments than did liberals about obeying religious authorities, r(170) = .34, p < .001, respecting traditions, r(170) = .35, p < .001, and doing as told by a commanding officer, r(170) = .29, p < .001. Table 2 and the top-right corner of Figure 3 show that (a) these authorities have a conservative agenda, and (b) obedience toward these authorities elicits more positive moral sentiments from conservatives. These results replicate past research showing that conservatives more so favor obedience to authority (Altemeyer, 2004; Graham et al., 2009; Pratto et al., 1994). In so doing, these results demonstrate that this past research confounded obedience with conservative authorities.
>Obedience to liberal authorities. The authorities with the most liberal agendas were civil rights activist (โˆ’2.82) and environmentalist (โˆ’2.51). Liberals now expressed the more positive moral sentiments to obeying environmentalists, r(170) = โˆ’.23, p = .002, and doing as told by a civil rights activist, r(170) = โˆ’.25, p = .001.

this is a starter for that discussion, a scratch in the right wing authoritarianism, or RWA.

Kind of seems impossible to wokify the military, the cops and the churches. The social gospel stuff is probably possible though.

I think people get really moralist about the military even though it's completely chuddy. I think that basically what you have to do is appeal to a sense of honor and paint communist revolutionaries as honorable soldiers fighting for their home and the working class.

>ommunist revolutionaries as honorable soldiers fighting for their home and the working class.
>for their home
true if you're actually defending yourself from invasion or waging a struggle for independence. How many times has America done that? not many. usually it's the one invading. so that's why it's hard to marry communist revolution to defense of the homeland in this country.

>>2841636
Yeah IDK it's definitely possible to organise veterans though. I guess the really big one is the cops. You can get communist lawyers I suppose.

>>2841638
I'm starting to think that the best way to organize communists in this country is to grift reactionaries, take the money, give it to actual communists in other countries. just totally suck the purses here dry and give it to the third world workers. Honestly becoming a capitalist here and exploiting the reactionaries might actually teach them class consciousness better than just telling them they're exploited. They'd prefer to be shown than told.

I think historically communists trying to agitate in the military with very immediate concerns. It's like tenant organizing. You probably won't start out with the communism but about how the landlord sucks and doesn't fix anything. What the military recruitment commercials don't tell people is that the military actually sucks, it can be really demoralizing, and you're bossed around by complete morons.
