the wardrobe malfunction of 2004 was more rock & roll than anything these dickheads have ever done so there

Think about it... Would a guy like Springsteen be so revered if he wasn't essentially a left-wing propagandist mouthpiece?... I highly doubt it.
That's not what Joe Walsh was saying, you know it, and now you're trying to shift the goalposts. You are such a disingenuous say anything to win little fuckstain

I'll be keeping an ear out to see how much Kanye West Republicans are playing on on the campaign trail in the remaining weeks. Surely they will reward his loyalty.

Half the people who rever Springsteen still miss the point of Born in the USA so I'm not sure you're completely on the mark with that one, fuzzy-baby

Wow, look at this ninja-edit.

No shit that's what he means, but you'd be kidding yourself if personal politics don't play a role in the amalgamation of it all either and I think it's pretty clear that he touches on that.

Fair point.. But there's no way he'd maintain such a cultural relevance if it wasn't for his political shilling.

It's not a ninja edit, I edited it right after I first posted it. And I didn't change the meaning of anything, I just backed myself up. I have no idea what you are trying to point out, but your comprehension is sub-middle school level though, so it could be anything

Sure but it doesn't help that they're choosing bands like fucking Rage Against the Machine and Depeche Mode. How much less Republican can you get? Actually, I believe Depeche Mode were the Alt Right's attempted "tune grab" that's even better

Kanye West will truly be the earth-shattering dilemma of all theme-music dilemmas for them, and I do hope for their sake we start hearing some "Gold Digger" at those GOP rallies sometime soon

Can't anyone in the entertainment industry ever just have a firm stance on anything political without being accused of "shilling" tho? That's some Alex-Jonestastic stuff right there, my guy

Holy smokes... Calm down dude... For one, the point I originally shared was from Nugent and it seems pretty clear that Walsh uses "politics" as a wide-ranging blanket term.

In fuzzy's worldview, politics is an abstract thing that exists *out there* somewhere but doesn't have anything to do with real life, which is why he doesn't understand that people think he is a piece of shit for being racist. To him, his racist ideology is just like a detached abstract thing floating around in space which is funny to argue about like music. The idea of someone holding moral or political values because they are a person who is guided by those values and takes them seriously is completely alien to him

I never thought for a moment Joe Walsh was talking about identity politics specifically, but identity politics plays into internal politics as well. They have to worry about how it looks for business if they come across looking like the "White Male Hall of Fame". That sort of thing can lead to boycotts and bad press, but if they didn't like the optics of rock and roll, maybe they should have just created a "Rock and Roll Museum" and not taken up the "Hall of Fame" part, or call it a "Pop Music Hall of Fame" right from the start. Or even rename it right now. Joe Walsh's bigger point is that there is no integrity in it, outside forces just use it however they want to use it, which is the point I'm trying get across.

no, it doesn't "seem pretty clear"

the quote is literally referring to corporate sponsors not respecting seminal artists in favor of ones with mass appeal. nowhere is there any indication he is talking about identity politics.

I mean I get it, you believe the HOF is being reverse racist because black people don't have a place in your internalized rock and roll mythology, and you are desperately seeking backup, so you latch onto literally anything you think you can vaguely spin into support for your fucked up beliefs.

but that's actually because you are a racist piece of shit, not because Joe Walsh was saying what you want him to be saying

Amen.

At this point, a name change really would be the most sensible solution.

The mental gymnastics that these RHOF board members use is obnoxious.

I don't even know what you're arguing about anymore, brother... Nowhere did I say anything about race so I don't know why you're trying to make it about that.

I'll make clear for our newer friends here that I'm not racist or prejudiced at all and the only examples that one can use is when I made fun of Khazir Khan for shilling for corrupt politicians... My support for Donald Trump has nothing to do with his more divisive rhetoric and everything to do with him taking on the globalists and acting as a wrench in the spokes for the corrupt elite swamp in Washington.

I want Janet Jackson to win, for the sake of exposing the absurdity of the R&R HoF sooner than later. Go Janet!

Also in the spirit of using the R&R HoF as a cudgel to get what we want in spite of it all, I hope Janet wins as a fuck you to the industry that gave that cracker Justin Timberlake a free pass after nipple gate, while blackballing Jackson.

Yeah, that's quite preposterous. Janet Jackson at her peak wasn't even all that groundbreaking or influential... They may as well induct Paula Abdual in too.
