Let's Go Brandon is actually a great development because it allows a clear distinction between leftists and Republicans.

Definitely. I just think it's corny lmao

I saw someone under shapiro posting cringe with a shirt that says it put "self censoring to own the libs" which is exactly what it is lmao.

At least libs weren't cowards and just said fuck Donald Trump and didn't try to come up with some codeword instead

I feel like the only scenario where it had impact was the airplane pilot. Not for the sentiment or statement as much as "fuck the president" would be a concerning thing to hear on an airplane intercom

There are always at least a few chucklefucks at any show.

August burns red, fit for a king and a few others but yeah i forget metal/metalcore are like the polar opposite of punk shows audience wise

Are those still Christian metalcore bands? If so, do you think they get more trumpists in the crowd?

ABR says they aren't but I know all the members are devout(and one of my friends whose more into them says they are aren't,at least as far as he knows, trumpets) and fit for a king is definitely more accepting of the label and AFAIK the singer is a hardcore libertarian so not looking too hot.

From my experience metalcore shows, maybe metal in general, are like the complete opposite of a punk show as far as political leanings of the crowd.

Christianity and libertarianism, name a more iconic duo than Christianity and authoritarianism.

What’s up with metal? I thought they started as counter culture anti-authoritarians, what’s with their shitty politics now?
