Because someone asked and people are responding? And where was political affiliation brought anywhere in OPs post besides your comment? You’re confusing on a lot of points here lol to clarify(because you’re ‘asking’) just because someone, for example a child, asks for something doesn’t always mean the behaviour or conversation is worthwhile/productive/progressive for anyone or thing.

As a matter of fact, people are more detrimental in behaviour than helpful, that’s why we have to learn good habits and manners, so to think anything such as judging people is worth supporting simply because someone asks, is detrimental to not just the person who is reinforced a negative idea by mob mentality but the observing society as well, so to call out judging people as a behaviour not worth supporting while also trying to be helpful and answer their question seemed to me at the time as the best most helpful answer.

I can admit I’m being nitpicky, but I know I’m right, judging people is boring because it’s often inaccurate if you care to research a person/thing honestly and with due diligence, you’ll find people are both simple and very complicated. I guess it’s not boring to people who believe their mind without ever finding out the truth but that’s a whole different problem.

Anyways, can you admit why you’re so nitpicky? Kanye’s not a great person, judging people is not a good habit(even if someone asks), I’m still trying to support OP’s question. Where’s/what’s the problem you’re so adamant about? Lol you barely even try to make sense, confusing lol

I can see it now, Elton John making foot-ball jokes as banter between songs. “Where’s the goal posts? Boys, I don’t think this field is regulation size. Silly Americans. Anyway, here’s tiny dancer.”

Republicans listen to rage against the machine. Your music taste doesn’t determine your political affiliation.

This creates an interesting point. Separating an artist from their work after seeing their humanity or lack thereof depends on the person. Art kind of belongs to the public once it’s released. Does every wedding that plays Michael Jackson suddenly become a pedo party? What about any classic rock-same pedo party? Artists are flawed people given insane amounts of social insurance and money until we’re reminded they are human too.

Also, Kanye is crazy and an anti-semite, but listening to his music doesn’t change your political views and a LOT of other artists put their blood sweat and tears into making Kanye’s music.

It’s a weird subject for sure but if applied to everything then no one could get anything done or ever enjoy themselves. It’s nice to be righteous and want to support what is only positive but the logic is weak in this flawed life and it’s unfair to only apply it to one person. Dig deep enough and everybody has blood on their hands, a guilty conscience, plenty of things to be ‘cancelled’ for. That said, it makes sense to want the world to ignore the crazy crying bigot in the room and not give him more money but, well, he’s made a LOT of good music and if he somehow found someway to stfu and maybe even perform an apology campaign I have a very strong feeling his followers would pop back up and blame it on his divorce/kids being taken/drugs/downfall in popularity.

Another example: Bowie was an outward racist when he was the White Duke, then everyone hated him and his music was bad so he went oh, sorry, I lost myself in the character I made up on too much coke. And no one cares anymore, he even married a black girl and named his last album black star, but no one who listens to bowie is called a racist. Life is weird. The kids will find Kanye and they will like the music, some will be taught about his antics, some won’t, but his discography will persevere whether we like it or not, he was a monster in the music industry.

Grew up in the 90s, maybe early 00s, probably white, male, into underground fashion more than mainstream, probably liberal. Idk, assuming things about people, especially based on music taste, isn’t something we should practice lol

Even if we weren’t joking and he wasn’t an open anti Semite, he can barely perform anymore. That thing he did with drake, the benefit concert, was his best in years and he still was out of breath, barely able to rap his verses for most of it. The music is great, but he’s old and tired and entering crazy bigoted grandpa mode.

Lil nas would put on a show but also make the majority of the football crowd very insecure lol

Eitherway they could play dookie hits and we’d all be happy. Except I reckon for people who don’t tolerate questioning your government ever even in art form lol
