For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

I have been waiting for the rap and punk political songs. Happy to see this, minus the censorship.

Let's be sure to support the creators who speak up. The song is pretty good, video is chilling. Sharing with the people I normally send music suggestions with

I watched it for the purpose of resistance.

Not my kind of music, but it's an important message.

"you can pay off meta, you can't pay off me"

-Macklemore - Hinds Hall

This is the result of not opposing Zionism and the crackdowns on free speech, protests, peaceful organizers...

You cannot accept the "lesser of two evil" decline into Fascism. You have to resist it.

It’s facing heavy censorship because the title is “fucked up”. Every video to come out in the last decade knows to title it “f*cked up” so it doesn’t get demonetized. But he doesn’t care because people will talk, and it’ll make it more know.

Oh lawd he back. Just when the world needed him most

It's not exactly my genre of music but i like it anyway.

It does feel like chaotic times are ahead. At some point, the republicans will do something so vile that people will say "No", and when that happens there will be violence.

I don't want a civil war. I don't want unrest. But I do want every republican and their enablers removed from power, and the billionaires stripped of their wealth. I don't know how to get from here to there.

Violence isn't the answer, it is the question. And the answer depends on whether people have been stripped enough of their rights and dignity.

I always like to say: there was a way America gained its independence and it wasn't by standing around waving signs

[–] [email protected] 8 points 14 hours ago

Pretty good video. I fuck with this song's energy.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 16 hours ago

It’s on YouTube 🤷

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

The video is easily findable on YouTube, it's shows up both in search and on his official page.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago

Thank you for sharing, that’s great.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

Damn. I don’t like Macklemore and now I feel like I have to listen to this track.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

It goes hard, worth a listen.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Dude I don't like the majority of his stuff but that vid gave me chills. If you're feeling the frustration and rage by the bullshit this administration is pulling, that vid is a balm to your soul.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I get that you probably didn't mean much by it but don't let if be "a balm to your soul" let it inspire you to action and speaking up against this regime.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

Just because it's good to know you're not alone in your feelings doesn't mean your complacent.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 18 hours ago

You should.

Its worth it whether youre into his music or not

Everyone know there would have been a lot of unhappy people with trump election. The government knows too, expect them to try to do everything in their power to try to contain protests.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Thank you for posting an alternative link! I had to resort to screen recording to post it due to YouTube's age restriction.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 20 hours ago

Here is a link without restriction

[–] [email protected] 16 points 21 hours ago

I was never really a fan but Macklemore is on it these days. Power to the people.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Wow, this song goes hard. I love it. Can't find it on Tidal, so definitely something is up. Tidal rarely is missing songs.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 21 hours ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 9 points 20 hours ago

So it is, thanks! I just assumed it wasn't when I went to the artist and just saw his 2023 album.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 21 hours ago

It is definitely on Tidal. I can shoot the link if you want it.
