Woody Guthrie being a communist is different than most cases. You have to take into account he started writing music during the Great Depression. His entire state's economy was destroyed and Oklahomans weren't treated well when they went to California. It was a situation where people were looking for work and couldn't find it.
It's a much different situation than now. Woody Guthrie was a great poet.

He also inspired the best folk sing ever Bob Dylan. Here is Dylan doing a duet with Johnny Cash: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLmhxlAVmos

Only if you count David Allen Coe as a folk singer.

A commie is still a commie, it's still a means to the same end. But thanks for the context, I love this guy's music.

I've seen that video. They end up fucking on a couch, and then the older chick's man shows up and fucks them both.

>A commie is still a commie
WTF are you talking about?
Woody never said "give me a free house".
Woody said "don't tell me where to build my house".
He was as much a commie as Butch Cassidy, Billy the Kid, or Dillinger.

Awesome book.

Most folk music is neutral or semi-redpilled. Overhyped nothings like Guthrie are plants for impressionable children who buy into the "white liberal" meme that royally fucked the West.

True folk music actually stands for something, stands for a people. Commie bullshit folk music was about redefining who we were and changing our morals.
This song is about the Irish fighting and losing against the British in 1798. It moves me every time I hear it, and even though I'm barely Irish, I feel I understand their experience way more because of it
