If you noticed anything about the use of the word bigot over the last 10 years, you’d understand that it almost always used incorrectly and interchangeably with other words like nazi, racist, etc. what they really mean is that they don’t want anyone there that disagrees with their world view.
I think what has made me enjoy music or any form of art the last 10 years is exactly what you just wrote out.
The word is misused by many so it is almost meaningless. Luckily they will never know what my world view is so I can either just choose to listen or not.
Again, not saying I disagree with you but I would be worried that I would severely limit my music/tv/film intake if I had to keep tabs on every artists' stance. That's tiring and honestly boring. These people are generally not the brightest or don't really understand what they are taking a "stance" on.

To show you how incorrect your quoted statement was. Those words are pretty interchangeable.

This. They’re no different from the sheep on either side. They just get the attention because they have a small segment of the public eye.

frick Spotify though. This, the bullshite recently with the AI band they were promoting, the fact the artists don't get paid shite for streaming. More bands ought to pull their music from that horseshite site.

It doesn't bother me much either and I'll still listen. I just thought it was funny / annoying and just a bad thing to do as a band because some people that do enjoy your music will stop listening.

Not really. All bigots are not nazis. All racists are not nazis.
The point went over your head. All those words are used incorrectly by people like the ones in this band.

Ah, I re-read your post and see the point you were making.
I'll mostly disagree, but not for the reason I originally thought.
I'll leave the dumbass post up as penance.

Yes, the issues aren’t mutually exclusive. I don’t use Spotify at all unless some blind link on a song I want to hear takes me there. The typical greed seems pretty prevalent.

I get what you are saying but not sure not wanting bigots at your show is political. Seems kinda decent human behavior. Maybe that's asking too much nowadays?
Bigotry became an entire political movement in 2015.

The vast majority of them all hang out in the middle of the same Venn diagram, though.

Nah, this over generalization has helped get us to where we currently are.

Yep. And even if his point is accurate, it's irrelevant because the losers that have been screaming those terms since Trump ran for office are actually using them correctly, which is almost never the case.
So it's real easy to say "Yeah, everyone I disagree with is a nazi, bigot, racist, sexist, etc" and also say "Yeah, everyone I disagree with hangs around in the same circles."

You really don't think there is massive overlap between nazis, bigots, and racists?

No. Black people by in large are wildly racist. Liberals are huge bigots and are completely intolerant of anyone who does not share their point of view. Neither are Nazis.

Seems like it’s the band doing the pearl clutching, but those who agree with them never see it that way.
