[3. He wants to scrub the ‘black’ out of pop music
In an interview Morrissey once stated, “Reggae…is to me the most racist music in the entire world. It’s an absolute total glorification of black supremacy.” He went on, “Ultimately, I don’t have very cast iron opinions on black music other than black modern music which I detest. I detest Stevie Wonder. I think Diana Ross is awful… I think they’re all vile in the extreme. In essence this music doesn’t say anything.”
The interviewer responded, “You seem to be saying that you believe that there is some sort of black pop conspiracy being organized to keep white indie groups down.” What was Morrissey’s response? “Yes, I really do.”]
morrissey is garbage? who knew
He says racist shit like all the time
This racist bastard made a disgusting song about the Bengali community, referred to Chinese people as a “subspecies” and is a strong supporter of UKIP.
Yeah, he had an entire song that maligned Bengali people and everyone still wonders why I won’t listen to his work. Not surprised that he’s also flamingly anti-Black.
The densest people on the internet are the ones who say sci fi and fantasy are are getting too political. Why can’t we go back to the good old days of The Twilight Zone, with its various episodes about mob mentality and the danger of mass paranoia that totally weren’t about the Red Scare. Or Star Wars and its genocidal empire of racially homogeneous Aryan men. Or Dune with its religious tribal peoples who live in a desert that contains the galaxy’s most valuable resource and the wars with the foreign colonizers, that was purely from Frank Herbert’s imagination. Can you imagine how much Star Trek would suck if it was packed to the brim with ham-fisted allegories of every societal issue of the 20th century. Not like all this modern ultra-political stuff, like a woman hero.
From the opposite angle, I had someone argue with me that if invited to a panel, Orson Scott Card would clearly discuss science fiction and not social issues.
look i have to bring this back because i want you all to take a moment to imagine being the guy who messed up his line so badly people are still laughing 2000 years in the future at your mistake
When you’re scared of messing up on stage and they tell you:“Don’t worry, what’s the worst that could happen?”
@whatis2plus2 SOMEONE got too cocky to run his lines
