And we danced
The strange thing for me is: it's not like Macklemore has been silent about his views on the Gaza genocide until now. "Fucked up" is not a very subtle song and has been released over a year ago

That video was absolutely limited in exposure by our loving technowizard overlords. It was starting to go viral, and got age restricted and magically stopped.
He should've released it on the fediverse too. Would've reached a few 100 more
It's twofold, oppressors want to scare anyone from making public statements about the genocide and want to show they have the power to do so no matter the venue.
And it's also different in that this is a massive tour with a massive audience throughout all of the US where they are actively trying to shut down any talk about the Israeli genocide of Palestinians that the US supports.
That's one crusty-ass gif
I generally prefer using as low res as I can, help w fediverse costs and I don't know what other folks' data situation is...
Lmao and I thought I was the only psycho compressing pretty much every picture I post into lossy webp to not unnecessarily use storage on the instances
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Imgflip gifs are ass coming straight from their site
But hey, it was 99 cents!
Walk up in the lemmyverse like, what up I got a big cock. Nah, I’m just pumped a celeb is calling out genocide.
I was just reacquainting myself with some of his music, and I have to say, it’s good. It’s always been good: extremely well-produced, well-made, and empathetic.
But it has most certainly aged out of its time, and not particularly gracefully. The Heist, for example, is an immaculate representation of the early 2010s.
He’s adapted somewhat to this decade, but you can still feel the remnants of his heyday.
That being said, I fully stand with him and support the statements he made on stage.
I have no clue who that is
And im pretty sure i have no reason to learn anything about whatever shitshow is going on
Pro tip for an easy life: choose Macklemore's side when someone brings it up, unless you surround yourself with zionists, billionaires, and the sheep they herd.
You know, I forgot he also did that Same Love song, so I'm not surprised after remembering that.
TBH I barely ever heard it before, and never knew who any of these people were or what they did. Apparently some of them are evil, nobody will shut to about it, and I still don't know why any of them mattered in the first place.
This is the oldest I've felt all day.
Well you would be outraged to know about Ryan Lewis...

You know what? Can't Hold Us is a good song.
Not good enough to get me to give his other music a try, but still.
I think Arrows is pretty good. It was probably written by the other guy who was credited lol
I he on the fediverse now?
Would be nice if they were around more. Just the other day I was listening to FDT pt 2
Went from Macklemore to mackleless
really? who among us can claim to have mackled more than he?
You speak the true true
Clearly not a Seattleite.
More like:
Living? Well that’s a capitalistic crime I’ve never been crucified before…
Or “slightly being okay without condemning everything I know to the death penalty?” “Well that’s a capitalist crime I didn’t know before…
