Is it still music and art that should be platformed when it calls for genocide?
Edit: whoops I fell for sealioning again
Should the song I quoted be banned? If not, where exactly do you draw the line?
Is that ChatGPT?
No, it's Dead Kennedys. It's written by gigantic leftist Jello Biafra and intended as satire.
I don't think Kanye's song is satire. I think he's mentally ill and meant every word to be taken literally. But I look at songs like Kill the Poor or California Uber Alles, and I start to doubt whether some stuffy old politician would be able to tell the difference in intent between those and Kanye's song. I don't think that old politician should be given the power to ban any of them.
Anyone who listened to California Über Alles and thought it was a pro fascist song would be absolutely brain dead.
I could definitely see an elderly southern senator believing that, or claiming to believe that simply because he doesn't like punk music. You're aware of all the congresspeople claiming that Palestinian genocide protesters are antisemetic, right?
Why was my comment removed?
The song is literally called Heil Hitler.....
