Here rests, a Swedish worker, fallen in peace time, armless, defenceless, put to a firing squad, by unknown bullets. The crime was hunger. Never forget him. My great uncle is in that picture. He was shot, but survived. Not everyone was that lucky.
@@ABPHistory It gets better. He was the banner carrier. It was recorded that when he was shot, before collapsing, he uttered the words "Your shot hit true, you devil!"
@@eemil.894 Not a war, it was the Adalen Shootings, in which thousands of people joined a single sympathy strike and the army set up a blockade. Shots were fired, and my great-uncle is the man walking at the front on that picture of this video which was taken not long before the shots were fired. The words were noted by several people nearby. And I said "Not a war", but people don't want to admit in 1935-1938 Sweden was close to a civil war. Thankfully it was avoided with labour law reforms, among other things.
@@eemil.894 Not so much, it was more a dissatisfaction between the workers and rural people and the people with money, royalists, and conservatives. There were however similarities in that there was a socialist and not-socialist friction in the country, but a clear definition or factions did not exist. Any desire for armed conflict or revolution completely lost steam with the Saltsjöavtalet (Saltsjö Deal) in 1938, and WW2 forcing people to come together.
I love this song since it isn't explicitly communist, but rather is pretty universal, unlike many other songs which are explicitly belonging to a specific ideology.
@@heinzg6375 then if communist societieshave never existed, how has it doen anything? Socialist countries have done terrible things yes, but they are quite comparable with capitalist countries. Socialist countries havent done any genocides though, but capitalism has, the crimes against humanity socialism has done are not comparable to intentional mass killings under capitalism and every single country that has been in a war has done war crimes, but ussr never used atomic bombs or murdered millions of people for "suspicions of communism"
Love it! This is what makes history interesting, because of how multicultural some particular things can be (like communism) which is really cool for me... do you know of a good instrumental version?
My Great-grandmother's cousin was a Swedish Vollunter to the USSR during WW2. Anders Gustavsson. He fought in Leningrad as a Lieutenant in the frontlines, got sick and then was in diffrent places at the frontlines and got promoted to Captain, in May 1944 he stormed Sevestapol with the Red army and when he got to todays Kaliningrad he got promoted to Major. He was the highest ranking Swedish Vollunter ever in the Red Army. He was Born 1899 and died 1990 in Leningrad and os buried in Sweden. He was a communist and I am proud of him being apart of my family tree.

Ingen It exists, it is called "Salvo el poder todo es ilusión". It is the version of the Communist Party, but it was more commonly used by the maoist terrorist group "Sendero Luminoso".

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X2rZeHmKEMw.html here is a third and the second most popular version after “Alla oss unga”, this one is more correct if you compare it with the Polish and CNT-FAI version.
Probably because this version was written by socialist-turned-nazi Nils Flyg who went on to become a prominent member of the Nazi movement in Sweden. The telltale sign this was written by a fascist is all the talk about blood and soil and of the glory of battle; normal translations of the Warszawianka are all very explicitly centered on class struggle (including the more popular version of this song in Sweden)
Is this really a Commie song? If so, it's pretty ironic when they accused fascists of pandering to workers by superficially using the rhetoric of socialism. This song glorifies everything associated with nationalism, Heroism, blood bonds, will to sacrifice, valor and determination. They even talk about a storm that will liberate. If that is not a National Socialist theme, I don't know what is.
Tell me you learned the political theory by looking at bad PCM posts, without telling me that you learned the political theory by looking at bad PCM posts.
@@left4bread277 I don't even know what PCM is so I think your assumption was incorrect. Judging by your name, you seem to be a very Orthodox student of Marx as he was also an expert in making incorrect assumptions.
@@skitidet4302 r/politicalcompasmemes is a site, where people like you make really bad memes about politics, often not understanding basic political theory or using bad strawmen. And no, the name has got nothing with Marx or anything left-wing, when I was a right-wing POS, in around 2017-2019, I also had this name. Also if you read Marx, you would know that a lot of stuff he did was just looking at capitalism and criticing it. And concepts like alienation,Commodity fetishism, are a real thing, that even non-marxist will agree on. Stuff like labour being placed about a capital is a thing, which everyone that has ever touched economy has agreed on, as you can not create capital without human labour. Again, this is a stuff that my very anti-socialist libertarian teacher agreed on. I could also send you some more advanced stuff that is related to actual Marx belives, and not what you were told by other people. Again, I was at the stage you were, few years ago, there is always a room for change .
@@left4bread277 "when I was a right-wing POS, in around 2017-2019" So you haven't understood anything and just jump from edgy meme band wagon to edgy meme band wagon? I guess you are young and will be back later when you learn some more so I shouldn't be too harsh. "Also if you read Marx, you would know that a lot of stuff he did was just looking at capitalism and criticing it. " I know that, but that does not contradict what I said so I don't know where you are going with this... "And concepts like alienation,Commodity fetishism, are a real thing, that even non-marxist will agree on. " Ye I do agree on it as well. We often talk about it in Fascist circles. You should know this but I guess your "right-wing POS" phase was really shallow or you just made it up to do the whole "look at me, I'm a convert so therefore my new belief is better" bit. "Stuff like labour being placed about a capital is a thing, which everyone that has ever touched economy has agreed on, as you can not create capital without human labour." What? The first part is incomprehensible. Anyways, no, everyone does NOT agree on the statement that you need human labor to create capital. Only the most deluded and dogmatic Marxist would agree to that. It can easily be disproven today by the use of automation and robots as they also create capital by their "labour" for their owners. "Again, this is a stuff that my very anti-socialist libertarian teacher agreed on." I'm going to press X to doubt on that... That seems about as likely as pigs flying. "I could also send you some more advanced stuff that is related to actual Marx belives, and not what you were told by other people. Again, I was at the stage you were, few years ago, there is always a room for change ." Hahaha, you are totally doing that bit. Look dude, I've been around the block. I've looked around the block a few times looking for the truth. Now that I've finally found it, I'm never going back to the lies I once used to believe. We can talk once you have been around the block looking for the truth and a worldview that makes sense, I can give you your final destination and it's not liberal or Marxist.
@@left4bread277 But ye, I do agree people on Reddit make shitty memes and they know nothing of politics because all they care about is having fun and do quirky takes that makes no sense what so ever, presumably because they desperately want to be liked by their peers because they have no real friends so they are going to settle for the affection of the cattle that browse Reddit.
