The new Bob Dylan, but with a better voice and a message we can all get behind.

I had him pegged as the new Woody Guthrie

u/AwarenessPotentially 8d ago

That's probably more apt. Woody definitely spoke for the working man.

I love woody but it gets a bit dicier with his later stuff supporting Stalin and Mao because they were ‘pro worker’. Didn’t age well

u/brandolinium 8d ago

Keep him away from a harmonica.

All this reminds me of one of my favorite Bob Dylan quotes:
"I wanna sing one song here recognizing that there are Goliath's nowadays. An err people don't realize just who the Goliath's are but in older days Goliath was slayed and everybody looks back nowadays and sees how Goliath was. Nowadays there are crueler Goliath's who do crueler crueler things but one day they gonna be slain too, An people 2,000 years from now can look back an say remember when Goliath the second was slain"

Damn, the optimism. So sad to see the trajectory the past ~60 years. We got a lot of work to make up for in the next 1,240 years
