Meanwhile, conservatives are still upset over Bruce Springsteen and most hippie rock & roll groups. Liking an artist but disagreeing with them politically is actually quite common.

I think most people could care less about an artist's political affliction as long as they make good music. I don't care if they are far-right or far-left, music is music, just enjoy it.

You'd be surprised how common this is in punkland, like with the lead for Ariel Pink also being an alt right nutjob.

I don't fucking get it.

I was reading today about Roger Waters denying the Uyghur genocide, Taiwanese independence, etc.

That was really fucking weird.

Well, I will admit that Bowie did some seriously messed up stuff in the 70s. But the guy completely changed his way in the 80s onward and fought for some great causes and everyone says he was a kind, standup guy.

Oddly enough Reagan was a big fan of Springsteen, even mentioning him in a few of his speeches

Yes, hes the sort of myopic pseudo-leftist who believes only American Imperialism is bad, basically.

Like, at best he was just trying to argue that the lives lost during China's ongoing genocide didn't equal the lives lost during the Iraq War...but that's...still...a really flawed comparison? Especially when he voiced those objections immediately after saying to the effect that China wasn't out there killing people like the US was.

Here's the interview link btw https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2022/08/06/smr-roger-waters.cnn
