/c/socialistmusic: "A subreddit dedicated to sharing and appreciating music that is socialistic either in nature or in spirit."

/c/tankietunes: "The music must apply to one or more of these categories: Communist Propaganda Music ... Music from Socialist countries ... from an anti-capitalist group supported by MLs ... anti-capitalist songs and artists (real ones not grifters like Tupac, make sure of that), or music that is absent of politics entirely(shaky one here, don’t toe the line) like classical or instrumentals, and remixes of the previously listed items ... You must put the Name of the song, and artist on the title (in that order)."

Personally, I like the simple rules of socialistmusic, which seems like if it has a socialist vibe ("in spirit") you can post it. While it's totally fine with me that tankietunes has such specific rules, it led me to personally not post there as much.

I do like having a catch-all socialist music sub for things like songs from labor union and civil rights movements, because sometimes those can be enjoyable or historically interesting, likewise for mainstream songs and anarchist songs and others which just strike the poster as socialist "in spirit" even if it wouldn't qualify for tankietunes' rules.

Edit: Just to clarify, I'm not making arguments for or against anything specific, just trying to lay out my initial thoughts.

Well we might need to change the rules of tankietunes to be broader so that more socialist music can be posted.

Should we designate one community to be primarily socialist music, and another as a more general music community for lemmygrad ([email protected] is for music theory)? This way we don't muddy one socialist music community with "non-political" music but otherwise music we want to share with our fellow comrades on this instance.
