OMFG! I’m a 54yr old southern woman and LBGTQ+ ally! My daughter introduced me to you today!

I’m really upset I hadn’t heard of you until now. Folk music has always been my favorite genre, and Phil is my favorite folk musician of all-time. If he could hear this, I’m sure he’d be smiling. That’s one of the highest compliments I can give, and I say that with my whole chest.
I’m so glad you came across Pink!! He’s an absolutely brilliant lyricist, and if you like this - you should check out his originals. This isn’t anywhere near his best, and that saying something because this is damn good. I promise it’ll be worth your while.
I have listened to this too many times this week. The shit is the same as when Ochs said it back in 1989. As a Queer person who got the cops called on them by their comfortable liberal "best friend" when I screamed at her about how respectability politics was killing us. (I'm white, so it was inpatient for me...) To make a long story short: wish you would have kept that last line in. 😂 /HJ I'm not in charge of your art, though. So, carry on! Love your work, comrade. 🤘🏻
Thank you for enjoying this song :) You should check out more of his music, this isn’t even a top-five Pink Williams performance - and that’s saying something because this is GOOD.
Genuinely, it’s crazy. This entire account should be having a new viral hit every day, even from a catalog no longer being actively updated. You should go check out more of his music. It gets so much better than this, and that’s saying something because this is so good.
@@samanthatix7905 he is not a "kiddie diddler." If you’re going to go out of your way to go to this man’s TH-cam video just to leave comments about his past mistakes, at least get them right. Intelligence has gone out the window in the last 20 years, yeesh. he had sexually inappropriate conversations with minors, yes, but there is no evidence that he ever had physical contact ("diddled") anyone underage. And the important detail that he is in his late 20s, every action he took was in his early 20s (ie. he is very far away from the person he was when he took those actions) - and for crying out loud, he was a victim of childhood sexual abuse. He was not behaving like a p*do, he was behaving like somebody with unhealed sex trauma. He has clearly done the work to heal himself and no longer perpetuates the cycle of abuse. He deserves to grow and move on, expecting him to be held accountable for his past for the rest of his life is ridiculous. He’s not the same person. The Pink that you want accountability from has already taken it. The Pink that you’re harassing is just a guy trying to make a positive influence in the world. He owes you nothing.
I remember when Phil Ochs sang this song live. He started it off with the definition of a liberal. A liberal is someone who is to the left of center on issues that don't affect him directly, and to the right of center on issues that affect him directly.
fucking beautiful, I also really love the version Jello Biafra did, there are plenty of really really good versions of this song and yours is one of them
with, your supposed to laugh with yourself. if you honestly believe however, that what you believe is laughable, maybe explore that more, read different books that might challenge your views, maybe steel man more arguments and understand why people who are more left might see what your saying as potentially problematic. i remember being a liberal, and also being upset with people who were more left than me, not fully understanding their words, or why they might feel a certain way, and not feeling validated in that. until i actually started reading, started seeing many more dots than i was raised with, and then connecting them to things other people were saying. we all feel powerless at times, and feel as if we aren't measuring up, or have been failed in some way. but it's clear just from the history that maybe other people as a result of their identity may have actual valid concerns about both how they were treated in the past, and how they are even treated today, and thinking that all that history can be fully rectified by just signing some legislation? might actually underestimate both the scope of these issues, and the scope of the solutions.
This is a good idea, I would love to see an updated version of this song and I’m sure many others would as well. We should start commenting to him about this more often and maybe if he sees that people want it, he’ll come back and do it.
Right wings are controlled by others at least liberal think for them self instead allowing others telling hiw to live your life.This why I love being a liberal.
@sapphicmoonwitch I see.Politics gives me server anxiety ,it seems like everyone thinks they are better than next trying to control other people life none stop arguing and violence because everyone wants others to believe in there bealive only or your going to get slammed for your own freedom of thinking.
I think you harped on the tweeting/CNN/tech part a little too much. Original approached a wide range of subjects and called the liberals out in a variety of ways, but your update just goes back to "I use [insert internet conglomerate]".
If I had the money and job connections outside to live anywhere other than the Red state I was born in, I WOULD have moved out of this Christ-forsaken (If Christ were actually real) state yesterday.
I feel really bad for the Arabs It's Palestine that I stand with Those Israelis, they all need to chill out Someone get Netanyahu a spliff But you can't send them all back to Europe That whole Khazar thing was a myth So love me, love me, love me I'm a liberal
Damn, you’re right. It’s a good thing that he’s already put the difficult work into unlearning every single mental framework that allowed him to believe what he was doing was OK. Thank goodness that people are able to learn how to be better people and then apply that learning and grow. Your comment was unnecessary.
I'm so glad that this song is still being updated. Every ascending version is just as spot on as the first. Love me I'm a liberal too.
Might be the last thing you hear from Pink though, he hasn't posted since the Reddit thread about him grooming minors came to light
Thank you for supporting Pink

He'd be crying that his song needs new words so many decades later.
I just found this song recently. Let me tell ya, your version captures the same kind of essence. I'm glad I found you Pink.
I wasn’t sure if I’d like your rewrite but you certainly delivered. Well done! I feel Phil would approve!

Seriously great work. This is super impressive. Love Phil Ochs and love you friend ❤

it's satire
“None of this will affect me” this quote will age like milk.
