Also, what fucking freak shows are you talking about? Music has been easily the most celebrated and universally enjoyed form of art throughout the entirety of human history. Few people can ever even dream of being loved, cherished, and celebrated as much as musicians. There has never been a point that music wasn’t the defining art form of an era. Did ypu not notice the reaction of the entire world when Dolly passed?

You’ve got a victim complex, man, figure that shit out.

Hell, even elevator music isn’t afraid to noodle a scale from time to time.

First off, that has nothing to do with what I was talking about and plays no validity to the point I was making. You still lost, regardless of where you want to place the goalposts.

Second, your assertive overconfidence is nothing short of delightful. I’m not stupid enough to dox myself for an internet argument. If you’re into doom metal there is a chance you’ve heard my riffs, though, or maybe even seen me on stage if you’re in the western united states.

What are your credentials? Feel free to be vague.

That’s a fun way to let me know I’ve won our little debate. Cheers!

Feel free to outline where I did that.

I am a musician. You don’t get to speak for all of us. It doesn’t make you a special or different kind of person. It’s a very accessible skill to learn and perform. We’re not all petty little broken crybabies, in fact the vast majority are not. Your view says a lot more about you than it says about music and musicians. You’re projecting, not observing.

I’m sorry you think that you have to be broken in order to be creative, that’s sad as fuck.

I hate this view, it’s not true, at all. The majority of great musicians are normal people. This is a concept people made up to justify liking shitty people. I’ve personally interacted with a ton of my favorite bands and outside of a few assholes they are all cool normal people. Music is a rational thing, there are formulas for what does and does not work, you don’t need to be insane to do cool and innovative shit with music. If you look at most of the people that were insane they burned out, died, or ended up in obscurity. Insanity is a universally detrimental thing to experience, it doesn’t impart any kind of gifts. They’re also usually credit stealing narcissists, like Jim Morrisson, they don’t actually provide anything to the music other than a face and personality.

Ed Sheeran just plays the standard pop chord lineup when he plays guitar. E, G, C, A, D. The rest of the guitar is wasted space in his hands. It’s definitely a joke about a musician specifically for musicians to laugh at.

His music is childishly simple and uses pretty much a singular method of music theory and the circle of fifths and caters wholly to the major scale. He writes baby music to be played on a baby guitar.

This is what a victim of propaganda looks like.

This is exactly the response they were hoping you would have to this. You ate up the whole thing. All they had to do was say one stupid thing about how much they love this guy they hate and want to fail, now you are aggressively driven to throw out the baby and hold onto the bathwater. You see how that works entirely in their favor, right?

Nobody is immune to propaganda.

No. It’s discrediting propaganda. This was the exact response they wanted you to have. They are actively trying to sabotage and co-opt in geoups to discredit their opposition. Not a single fucking conservative was ever going to vote for El-Sayed, but now they’ve just indoctrinated who knows how many “progressives” (reactionaries) to disavow a credible candidate due to an entirely different and antithetical political entity talking about them.

You see it, right? It’s not subtle.

Maybe it’s propaganda to get you onto this exact line of thought and reasoning.

You were just the victim of propaganda.

They noticed the response to Dick Cheney supporting Kamala and how significantly it benefited them and are now doing it on their own. Note how El-Sayed himself has essentially nothing to do with any of this story other Carlson putting his name in his mouth.

This is propaganda, if this made you question the validity of El-Sayed then it worked on you.

If this is an earnest statement then the whole situation says nothing about El-Sayed and it says a whole lot about Tucker Carlson’s desperation.

If it’s a ploy, which it definitely is, the fact that you are interpreting it the way you are seems like that would be entirely the point of this angle of propaganda. There is no way they didn’t know that your specific interpretation was going to be the exact reaction they would be fomenting with this. They know who Carlson is, we all do. This is all pretty obvious staging. If so, congrats, it worked perfectly on you. No one is immune to propaganda.

It was once an institution that did good things for some people. It’s irrevocably infected and corrupted now, burn it the fuck down.

For sure, actual Hitler was a way better option to let your chips fall on. Glad we avoided that whole Israel thing that Kamala was gonna do.

Cool.
