A couple of years ago, Mr. Seeger appeared as a “surprise guest” at a concert I attended. I didn't know he was still alive. I was told then he still toured. He couldn't sing much. Basically, he had the audience do it for him.

Yes, Mr. Seeger was a communist, but I'll bet 99% of the pop performers today are as well. Or they are communist sympathizers. It's funny to me because whether they realize it or not, they are actually capitalists. They have to be — if they weren't, they wouldn't be raking in the big bucks. I suppose they want communism only for the masses, not for themselves. No way would they give up their lavish lifestyles

It's not up to me to judge Mr. Seeger. He's in God's hands now.

Rest in peace.

As with so many other influential social icons, they come from affluent families of elites, seeped in communist teachings. Pete Seeger

I think today's liberals want to be ‘designer socialists’. They like what they have but want to change particular things. Some just want guns banned. Some just want socialized medicine. They don't think deeply enough to see that you can't have just some oppression. Any more than one can be ‘just a little pregnant’. Once you give up your liberties, the road to serfdom is ensured.
