Guthrie was a Communist piece of shit.

Indoctrination songs for Soviet pre-schoolers.

Woody Guthrie = filthy,Maoist punk

[budj]

Very good; Woody was a commie, thru and thru.

"This Land Is Your Land" is one of the United States' most famous folk songs. Its lyrics were written by American folk singer Woody Guthrie in 1940, based on an existing melody, a Carter Family tune called "When the World's on Fire", in critical response to Irving Berlin's "God Bless America." When Guthrie was tired of hearing Kate Smith sing "God Bless America" on the radio in the late 1930s, he sarcastically called his song "God Blessed America for Me" before renaming it "This Land Is Your Land."

I like the song, mind you, but it is a socialist-themed anthem.

How about “Dixie” instead?

My late wife’s great uncle grew up with Woody in Guthrie Ok.

At a family reunion, someone asked him about Woody, what kind of man he was etc.

Uncle Mitt thought a bit and then said, “he was just plain sorry”.

The masks are off - this is anti-Americanism.

Can we go to war now?

After carefully reviewing ‘The Star-Spangled Banner' lyrics and meaning, including the third verse

Are they serious? Nobody even knows this verse exists. It isn't part of the song, just the poem.

But I feel like I'm whistling past the graveyard, when organized sports return fully the National Anthem will not be part of it.

[Pajamajan]

Communist Anthem. Figures🙄

[Brookhaven]

How long till Native Americans attack the soccer team as racist.

“This land is your land, this land is MY land...”

I don’t think so. This land was stolen from Native Americans.

Everyone else (that includes blacks & whites—even the liberal ones) needs to go back where they came from.

[Da Coyote]

It’s soccer.
Who cares?

[AU72]

Why don’t they just cut to the chase and play “The International” or better yet “The March of the Volunteers”?

[ConservativeInPA]

Foreigner sport. enough said.

[SkyDancer]

I like “America The Beautiful” better than the SSB. I think that “God Bless America” would blow too many liberal minds; which may be a good thing.

[1Old Pro]

I’m surprised it’s not The Youngbloods, Get Together, but I guess they have way too much hate for that.

[pfflier]

All I have to say to all the congresscritters about this is "DON'T YOU DARE"".

[Stravinsky]

Blatantly anti-American act.

[wrcase]

The first US national team in any sport that I will openly root against.

[yardboyd]

Appropriate Disney Theme Park tune for the looney tunes soccer team that little attention is paid to.
