Yeah, Trump's the fascist.

These people are equal parts scary and repugnant.

quote:

When word spread that Andrea Bocelli had been approached to sing at Donald Trump's inauguration, opera fans hit social media and have literally begged the tenor to consider otherwise.

Bocelli fans were serious about the issue, threatening to #BoycottBocelli if he chooses to perform at the Jan. 20 celebration.

"Dumped @AndreaBocelli CD's in trash, won't be buying tickets to Feb. Orlando concert after all. DONE with him. Will #boycottBocelli forever," @relevanne tweeted. And she's not the only one vowing to turn against Bocelli.

That's discrimination against the disabled! I hope he DOES go ahead and perform and the libtards can just twist themselves in ugly little knots.

These liberal boycotts usually backfire

Remember Chickfila? Record sales that quarter

Agree boycotts are usually ineffective because people have short memories. Remember Target?

what's amazing is that they've created this "gotcha" argument based on free market stuff

they're going to reply with "well isn't this just the market making a choice?"

they think that the drive by is a zinger that can't be countered, but they're just sheep pushing memes without thinking. nobody is saying their boycott should be ILLEGAL. it's just an example of their intolerance and borderline insanity

@AndreaBocelli hope whatever Trump is paying you makes up for the millions of fan dollars you're going to lose. #boycottbocelli


They really are full of themselves...Just like celebs and their sense of over self-worth and importance...

Even though the election was partly a repudiation of this type of smug condescending narcissism.

So this dipshite thinks Bocelli is going to lose tons of money because a few crazy libs are going to stop listening to him.

Nevermind that he'd be singing at maybe one of the biggest inaguarations ever and have a captive audience of millions of voters to create new fans.

They seem to be doing just fine now and I don't think they changed anything? Like I said people have short memories hence why boycotts rarely work

It may not have been a 'change' but it was certainly a 'rethink.'

They are acting like petty, petulant brat children. I hope President Trump releases his list of performers at the last minute.

The democrats and Hollywood are so brain-dead; they don't GET that no one gives a rats arse about celebrities. *See Crooked Hillary's Celebs in Philly*

It's the ignored middle class, and economy-- stupid.

Interesting.Chick-fil-A had a "rethink" too

"Chick-fil-A released a statement in July 2012 stating, "Going forward, our intent is to leave the policy debate over same-sex marriage to the government and political arena."[1] In March 2014, tax filings for 2012 showed the group stopped funding all but one organization which had been previously criticized.[2]"

Both sides are being petulant children right now. The right with their name calling (libtard, dimocrat, cuck etc.) of anyone who isn't far/alt-right or in support of Trump is pathetic. The left with their calls for the boycotting of anyone who isn't with them and name calling (racist, xenophobic, Repugnicans, etc.) of anyone who didn't vote for Hillary or anyone who isn't in support of things like BLM are equally ridiculous.

Both sides need to grow the frick up. Those of us in the middle are sick of the frickery.
