I find it amazing that people like Seeger and Castro can live long, long lives and still not abandon the inane ideology of their youth, despite experiencing a lifetime of its failures. People who are genuine idealogs must be, in a sense, psychopaths.
Well, at least Seeger never killed or imprisoned anybody, to my knowledge, which is much more than I can say for Fidel Castro.
A lot of the American people are just like Seeger though tens of millions now would have never heard of him.
He was a musician and surrounded himself with “fellow travelers.” Reality never touched him in that echo chamber.
Pete Seeger never actually pulled the trigger himself, but has supported every anti American totalitarian thug dictator from Stalin to Mao on through Ho Chi Minh, Castro, Hugo Chavez, and BHO. As well as supporting the Occupy Movement and and the anti Israel BDS and flotillas with the likes if Bill Ayers
