As a non American, what’s the reference?

Italy.

Yup. Not all ideologies are equal. And not all are worth defending. Not sure where you got that idea.

I’d be against him speaking against Gaza because I’m against genocide. How is this so hard to understand.

I did. The point I was making is that he got dropped because of political Gaza but not the holocaust. Both of these are confronting and might upset people who just want to listen to some music.

The quote isn’t about Gaza! It was fine to be “political” about holocaust survivors but not Gaza. That’s the point.

I wish you bland music in your future. Bury your head in the sand and enjoy it.

WDYT about this bit of the article?

Gillham also performed a song by György Ligeti, where the pianist had noted Ligeti was from a Holocaust-surviving family and he spoke about the political background of the piece.

Build it and they will come. The media will follow for the story and people will hear the message. Maybe.

Lmao. They’ve got an army from another country tearing through their land. I reckon they’ve got larger problems than “this isn’t the best form of democracy in the world”. Again, no solution from you apart from lying on their backs.

So if enough people won’t fight the government should shut down and let the invaders take over? Is that your alternative? Civilisations sometimes need to force people to work for a common good. See also vaccines.

Source? It’s not even making it past the border.

And unable to deal with an absolutely massive illegal tobacco and vape industry (:

Sadly unsurprising.

I hope they start their own fediverse. Lemmy or mastodon would be great.
