Pile just came out

I don't think I can take them seriously anymore.

literally who?

oh boohoo some indie dude empathizes with women and minorities, that hurts me as a white guy

Decent pixies/sonic youth ripoff band

>muh cis white privilege blah blah blah
I might be a leftist, but I think this meme is becoming stale and boring. They need to find something new to take the piss of the average Breitbart browsing Joe.
Literally who btw ?

read the 3rd paragraph you stupid nigga

HMMM, maybe its actually all the landowners, ceo's, silicon vally, wall street, and corporate donors who control everything.

Nah, MAN WHITE PEOPLE SUCKX XD, lets divide everyone and fight each other while the wealth accumulates at the top to the point rich people dont even pay taxes anymore because its all off shore xDDDD

These are all real issues, they're just milking the sjws and the whole trump uproar to further their careers. Pic is some dude tearing them a new asshole in the comments. Also I'm not white senpai

>"your" a musician and therefore not allowed to have a public opinion about anything political

wow really makes you think

He makes a good point. I can't believe how much emphasis we put on celebrities. Sometimes I hear myself talk about things (with people) and I realise how much of an idiot I sound like. Why the fuck do people really value what a musician's political views are outside of their music. I'm not saying that we shouldn't discuss these things but how many people blindly follow whatever trendy pop star spews out of their mouth?

>some shitty bandcamp band posts political views on facebook
>also posts it on Sup Forums to cause a shitstorm
Is this a new form of viral marketing?

That wasn't what he was saying

>the rich can avoid it
>46% of the country makes so little their tax burden is 0
>feels bad being middle class

America elects celebs all the time. All over Europe populists are rising. We don't really deserve democracy might aswell just go back to kings and queens ruling us.

He's literally complaining that they made a political post because in his eyes they're exploiting their supposed popularity by using their platform to tell people what they think about something.

>return to monarchy
i'm fine with this desu

the madman!

I don't think English is his first language. Pretty racist of you to belittle his grammar fuckin White cis scum, not everyone speaks American asshole

I thought you liked AfD, Malcolm
I would prefer market socialism with a basic income for all desu

You'll have to read the whole conversation to get the full context of his argument

I think every choice in Germany right now is terrible.
I probably vote FDP reluctantly.

wow fucking sex meme

say triggered next and make me laugh like crazy

What did u mean by dis?

based ruskies

Little context

>I can't believe how much emphasis we put on celebrities.
ding ding ding we have a winner folks. the amount that we worship celebrities, even minor ones, is disgusting. They are payed to act, throw a ball, perform music, or whatever, but that doesn't automatically give their opinions more weight. But we're used to associating them with a higher status. That's why advertisers get celebrity endorsements. Even though we know they are an actor, someone paid to pretend to be something they're not, we see them as genuine. Everyone does it. None of this is groundbreaking shit, but I want to stress how little being known makes your opinion more or less valid. Someone could be a well respected italian scientist, but that doesn't mean their statements about music aren't retarded and that they aren't retarded. Even in fields that people are "experts" in, we see people being retards. Like Neil deGrasse Tyson and physics. He made some dumb tweet about the coriolis effect and a field goal. But his calcultions were wrong by over 300%. And in the wrong direction. Someone called him out for the wrong direction thing and he admitted his mistake, but his numbers were still the same amount off. And yet, there were dozens of articles the next day on how the "Bengals won because science, says NdT". And of course there was that whole BB-8 thing recently. The point of this blog post is that we give too much credit to celebrities and pseudocelebrities without checking their track record or making them explain why their opinion is worth more than anyone else's.

>fdp

come on man afd or nothing

you guys really can't empathize with wanting to let your political views be known? you do it all the time here.

>every user on Sup Forums is the same person

>takes post literally while ignoring subject matter

yeah I know, some of you guys are cool. don't go to school tomorrow, cause it's saturday

It's not just politics. Everyone wants to be loved, and respected. Well, I suppose not EVERYONE, but a large majority of people.

I empathize with it. And I post something here or there on fucking Sup Forums. I don't even post any political shit on stuff attached to my name. But like the one guy said, post about it on your personal page. People follow band pages to know about tour and release dates. All your doing is alienating people who either are opposed to your politics or don't want to here about it from musicians you follow. If people want to here your personal opinions they'll follow your personal page. It's also kinda dickish to use your band profile to call out a specific race/ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation.

People should keep political shit out of their music unless their music is explicitly political, in which case, they should make music about it instead of making a trash Facebook post.

yeah and it'd be great if we didn't get political discussions on mu and people took that shit to pol but it's current year and people will use every available way to tell people how they really feel about political issues

Awesome! My favourite band posted some that agrees with my banal politics! How out of the ordinary! I wouldn't have been able to enjoy their music nearly as much without knowing they were lgbtq-friendly! :)

Literally fucking who???????????????????????????????????????????????

>how they really feel about political issues
Everyone that starts these political threads is b8ing us autists into replying and fighting each other, they don't care about politics. These mods need to do more pruning. At least stuff like that Kero Kero Bonito thing was funny.

Holy shit did they actually come out in favour of trans people and women in this horrifically anti trans and anti woman time? Looks like the orange apocalypse just got a little more interesting....

Honestly, its about time.

>Second, having the privilege of a cis white male

You white guys are so fucking self-hating.

Please stop this shit I'm a child of the West too and I'd rather not see it fall because you white men are trying to play estrogen catch up with women everywhere.

daily reminder that idpols will be first up against the wall

dude no way white cis male privlege is great, it totally makes sense that people feel guilty about it. you get to just walk around at night by yourself and nobody wants to rape or arrest you ever, even if you're committing minor crimes. it's totally a thing and it's great.

Hah yeah dude

things that make me want to stop breathing:
>the concept of whole races and sexes having privilege
>being violent against people you disagree with
>people who call themselves "liberals" do this

lmao yea man r0ck on. its not lyk your being ignorantly bias at all

*green day american idiot plays*

>being violent against people you disagree with
fascists deserve no platforms

>deciding who is fascist
>then deciding that you can assault other human beings because you don't like their opinions
wew what a time to be alive

Rage With The Machine

Leftists are just lashing out because it ain't cool to be them anymore.

SJWs, nu-males, white guilt, the alt-right, Russia annexing Crimea, vaporwave going mainstream, the migrant crisis, Trump as president, etc. etc. none of this would have happened had Ron Paul beaten Obama back in 2012.

what happens when fascists start shooting ppl? and the same police you hate turn against you

This. And I'm not even libertarian.

Vaporwave is still cool even if I disagree with most of the artist's politics.

Speaking of, why can leftists never get over disagreeing with an artist politically?

>fascists deserve no platforms

This is the acute irony of fascism: Fascist tactics equals fascism on any side of the political fence.

Can you seriously not comprehend this?

You are living under this binary delusion of "the Good Guys" vs. "the Bad Guys" so you will actively try to excuse fascist silencing if you see it happen among "the Good Guys" that you identity yourself with because you instantly consider it a form of righteousness.

This is my favorite. When the guys in MAGA hats start packing and Antifas fuck with them, there are going to be bodies. This could legitimately lead to some small-scale civil war. The police may not get involved, but military vets are almost certainly not taking shit.

wow nice reddit poast my man

rly made me think

In what way is that a Reddit post?

Because you're feeling some feelings over it?

Is any post that you don't know how to respond to a Reddit post to you?
