    I've had this idea for months, but only decided to begin working on it today. The plan is to have every revolutionary leftist song available on the internet here. I realize there are thousands I haven't included... this is because of time. I'll add more over time. It would take me way too long to try to complete this ambitious project all at once. Hopefully this is useful to you. If not, hopefully it will soon be useful as it grows. Suggestions are welcome.

    If you download the mp3 (or whatever) and then drag them into your iTunes library, they should automatically convert to a playable file

Communism is the riddle of history solved, and it knows itself to be this solution." - Karl Marx

    "The limitation of riots, moral questions aside, is that they cannot win
    and their participants know it. Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but
    reactionary because it invites defeat. It involves an emotional
    catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility."
