[lbo-talk] where have all the antiwar songs gone?

>From The Beast's interview with Chomsky:

Q: Do you think bad folk music, drugs and poor hygiene
will ever topple the Military Industrial Complex?

Chomsky: I assume that too is not intended seriously,
but in this case I don’t discern a serious issue
lying behind the query.

Also, we sort of covered this ground in the old days
of 2005 with the thread "Why are we still turning to
Dylan for the soundtrack to our demonstrations?" which
I think was prompted by a similar article bemoaning
the lack of antiwar or protest songs that had mass
appea, or something.
