Hey guys, remember when music wasn't all political? Back in my day we listened to Green Day and Rage against the Machine and not this wooooke garbage /s

"And another thing! WHY DO WE HAVE TO KEEP SEEING THIS PRETTY WHITE WOMAN DATING A CONVENTIONALLY HANDSOME WHITE ATHLETE WHO WEARS HIS HAIR IN A CREW CUT? Why do they have to constantly put that kind of thing all up in our faces? If there's anything we ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STAND, it's having to see attractive, heterosexual, cisgender white people dating in a wholesome manner!"

I mean, is that not registering with everybody? The insanity of that shit? By all logic, these motherfuckers should see the Taylor-Travis union as the last hope for "traditional" (meaning white-on-white & heterosexual) relationships. I guess just knowing she's supposedly left-wing is enough for them to be pissed off.

And I guess she seems to be a beacon of female empowerment, in a more general sense. And I guess they don't like the fact that she's richer and more influential than him. I suppose they'd rather see him date a struggling black actress than a white megastar. At least he'd be in the "superior" position, rather than some kind of de facto supplicant.

Yeah, their problem is she is successful and has her own personality. And too old, and not a virgin. They only want young virgin women who are seen and not heard and are reliant on their husband for everything, like a good little piece of property.

Their problem is she's successful and has a vagina.

Yeah. We should just go back to Buffalo Springfield and Credence Clearwater Revival. Get those politics out of music! I just want to listen to Fortunate Son in peace!

I was gonna say "that's why I only listen to Blue (Da Ba Dee) by Eiffel 65", but then I realized the guy has a house, a sports car, and a girlfriend, yet he's still lonely and depressed, so he must be an AnCap.

CCR is pretty much my favorite band and it took me quite a while to understand the lyrics.
