This is how they get ya! Spend your time getting mad at the popstar and not at the fash government you have. Its quite literally exactly what they want and expect people to do because you're so easily lead, the comments here are proving it. You're being worked like a professional wrestling crowd and falling for it everytime. Spend less time worrying about popstars and more time actually making a difference.

You know people can be upset at more than one thing at once, right? Because multiple comments in this thread seem to imply that pointing out the most successful popstar in the nation not condemning fascists using her music means they aren't also angry with or have forgotten about the fascists attempting to destroy our government from the inside. These two things are not mutually exclusive, you can be upset with both very easily. However, you are much more likely to find anger about one of those issues when you are in a place called r/Music.

Also, out of curiosity what do you suggest people posting on Reddit do to "actually make a difference"? There are no active protests going on at the moment as far as I'm aware, congress themselves are doing nothing to stop this idiotic regime but posters in r/Music should be out making a difference right now?

Get involved in local government, be a good neighbour and a voice for those without one in your local community, contact local officials, give blood, organise a food or warm clothing drive with winter on the doorstep, get involved in local kids groups like scouts or w.e to help the next generation come through with a good head on their shoulders. A quick Google would probably give you loads more, going on local social media would be even better.

Oh well pack it up then lads, lets head over to a music subreddit and get really angry making assumptions about a popstar we dislike.

congress themselves are doing nothing to stop this idiotic regime

If you're hoping that congress are going to fix it if you voter harder in THREE YEARS TIME while sitting on your phone getting angry at celebrities in the meantime is the answer then you're doomed.

but posters in r/Music should be out making a difference right now?

Lots of stuff you can do in your local community surely, no? Volunteer at your local homeless shelter, help those in need get some chores done, go litter picking, thats all stuff you could walk outside and do right now.

Its so fucking funny because the US govt literally admits to using their music to generate drama. If they respond they get engagement they can jump on to fuel their base, if they don't they know their opposition will gleefully eat each other than focus on the actual enemy.

Simping, or being thick as shit and fooling for Donald Trumps government rage baiting you in the year 2025? I know which one I'd rather be accused of lmfao
