Dude’s being really defensive even though he’s criticized artists in the past for being right wing. It’s times like this I’m reminded that he’s been on multiple v*ush streams too.

Yeah exactly this, you couldn’t waterboard that pic out of me lol.
Kanye’s early albums are huge influences on me too but that shit is dead to me. Can’t even engage with it without remembering that jones interview.
I guess what I'm trying to get at is that I don't expect these guys like jpegmafia or melonboy to be politically or socially principled because they're not materially or meaningfully engaged with political activity to begin with. I can't hear Kanye without thinking of that interview, and I can't hear rtj without thinking about bank owning landlord killer Mike.
Melonboy to a lesser extent but Peggy tries to posture as a leftist and anti nazi and I think they’re not above criticism. especially wrt to fascists. If america wasn’t head to toe nazi sympathizers and took a 0 tolerance policy to its normalization on the internet 20 years ago shit would be a lot better, and I don’t think ceding ground to them just bc there’s not a party structure in place that these guys are adherent to is a good idea. I’m not demanding Peggy be a perfect communist I just think drawing the lines at A Nazi is more than acceptable
I don't have anything to add, those are good points.
