    As someone who doesn’t have the silly bird app, what’s all this about a rightoid folk singer?

    Please keep it brief, I have queer shit to be getting on with k thnx xo xo

    • Some red bearded guy sang a song, industry people juiced it up the downloads with money. It got attention because it’s an OK song, Republicans want culture war wins and dems love to tut tut despite being in full agreement. It’ll be forgotten next week, get back to queering comrade o7.

          The guy sang about how horrible it was that there were people starving in the street and then somehow blamed it on people on food stamps buying fudge or something? It really didn’t make a lick of sense, it’s just reactionary faux populism

            Ah yes, I forgot people buying food on food stamps was the problem with America, not at all the reality that lead people to need food stamps or anything.
