Reply to comment by _metamax_ in Pink Floyd fans are amused that the anti-woke mob are cancelling the band over the Dark Side Of The Moon 'rainbow' by DarkJester89

It's probably just a lame journalist fishing for a story.

Oh no, I saw endless comments on fb when Pink Floyd changed their profile picture.

All from people wearing sunglasses in a truck.

So those several people on FB are the anti woke mob?

Nope. I’ve personally seen the comments on a social media post with several people getting their tantrums going about it. I was rather incredulous at first, but yes. Bigots really are that dumb. Lol

They heard minority groups being put up against the wall in "In the Flesh" and thought that the band had conservative values.

It reads that way and also, there are already hundreds of Pink Floyd box sets so it’s hard to not see this as an advertisement. Also the art that is shown in the article is not very evocative of the dark side of the moon’s cover, in fact it looks really low effort imo. Seems like a big ole troll trolley

There's no way a significant minority of the population is that stupid that would make this story believable which is why I wont even read it. 1 or 2 isolated idiots sure. Enough idiots to form any sort of online or in person community to voice this opinion without getting a smack in the back of the head is incredibly unlikely.

Wait… did you just say there’s no way there are tons of dumb bigots?
