You laugh but it is actually quite sad. These artists are all being vilified, getting death threats, etc. for just wanting to play a gig. Most of them are not even political. As somebody who was pro-bush AND pro-bushleaguer I find the constant attack on artists to be shameful. It happens on both sides and it is not a good thing.

How would you feel about bands who agreed to play at the swearing in of the new grandmaster of the KKK or something like that? No prob? Shameful to criticize them?

The only difference being that the KKK, by its very nature, is hatred with a very clear mission statement.

That being said... I can completely understand why no band wishes to participate in such an event. It's a poopoo platter being served and if given the choice... people don't have to eat from it.

Your KKK analogy is insane but I recognize that is where the state of the opposition is these days. That being said I have no problem with bands who don't want to participate...that is completely their right. What I am talking about is bands who want to participate but are having their lives torn apart for even considering it.

I guess we all hate the Dixie Chicks now!

I'll give you guys a hint, straight from the horses mouth!

https://mobile.nytimes.com/1998/09/16/opinion/forgiving-george-wallace.html

This is my favorite quote from democratic super delegate and democratic congressional leader and Trump Resistor from a year ago about the preposterous thought of free education.

Horses mouth!

“I think it’s the wrong message to send to any group. There’s not anything free in America. We all have to pay for something. Education is not free. Health care is not free. Food is not free. Water is not free. I think it’s very misleading to say to the American people, we’re going to give you something free.”



This is my favorite quote from democratic super delegate and democratic congressional leader and Trump Resistor from four years ago to the Cal Board of School Administrators.

“Today we must do what we can to see that all of our children…it doesn’t matter whether they’re Black or White, Latino or Asian American, or Native American, get the best possible education. Education is a right, it is a civil right. So stand up for it, fight for it, speak up for it, speak out for it.”

There is no inherent contradiction in these two quotes. Something can be seen as a basic right and also not be free. Canadians accept this with healthcare - we see it as a basic right that everyone has access to healthcare regardless of ability to pay, but that doesn't magically make health care costs go away. It simply means that they are paid by other means, such as taxpayers. Public school education is the same, and there is no particular reason why higher education couldn't be of that was what society decided.

The representative from Georgia used the term civil "right" when referring to education. I guess we could argue basic right versus civil right but he he said specifically civil right, "education, it is a civil right".

Point: when in front of donors, education = civil right, when to oppose Bernie, education = commodity.

It was an insane question. Now I'm off to Kings of Leon.
