Counterpoint: We don't get to hurt anybody

Just posted this on Bluesky:

I was hard on Joan Baez's singing back when I wrote The Boney Joan Rule. But this morning I heard her speak briefly at a resistance webinar & she was the right person at the right time: "You can't match their ugliness, can't match their power. We don't get to hurt anybody, can't get to kill anybody"

This is The Boney Joan Rule

And this is a Joan Baez song I've always liked.
