Reading this thread I think most people here are over estimating the amount of genuinely right wing people in normal society.
Especially frat boys, I graduated last year, and even the frat boys at my school were pretty left leaning.
Also, I would hesitate to say that that article about trans people supposedly being mad at that song is right wing in and of itself. It seemed like it was just reporting on something they thought was true. Comments and reactions may have been right wing, but the headline looked unbiased.
It IS really insightful to me to see someone straight up say “I saw an article that made trans people look bad and I unfollowed the account immediately,” though. I’ve been curious about how everything has become so radicalized and “us vs them” to most people who are politically active and I feel like I understand why a little better now.
That being said, if the people who claimed to be offended at the song were not trans and simply just imitating them to make them look bad, as appears to be the case, then it is the responsibility of the publication to take the original article down and publish an update containing the new information.
Lastly, just to get ahead of possible misconceptions: I do not support transphobia, I do not support either what I consider to be the “popular” left or the “popular” right, and, furthermore, I wish more people could just be f***ing normal, politically speaking, and not do evil or degenerate s*** and then weaponize politics to defend themselves and their actions, as is common among both major and popular political “teams.”

The whole "I would estimate most Gen Zers are left leaning" menas nothing most of the boomers terrorizing this country were Hippies at one point.

In the end the white christian majority in this country always has and has always fallen in conservative line and even people in Minority communities aswell.

Just ignoring reality in the goes that this time people won't turn conservative at 30 isn't feasible for me.

It really isn’t, but I’m not arguing with y’all about this on a hip hop forum.
Also, every generation has progressed forward socially in recent American history.
Even the extremely conservative Regan era was more socially liberal than the liberal FDR era that came earlier.
In the “liberal” FDR era Japanese Americans were literally put in camps. In the “conservative” Regan era, you wouldn’t be able to even dream of doing something like that.
Before I continue, I’m not bigging Regan up. That era had a s*** ton of issues. Anyway…
Yes, many people become more conservative as they grow older, but what “conservative” even means gets more liberal as time goes by.
A “conservative” from the 30s would be hated by most “conservatives” in the modern era, and rightfully so.
It only makes sense that that trend continues.

I for real try to be as clear and respectful as I possibly can these days, because I realized that it’s more important to be kind and contribute something positive than to just say stupid s*** I think will get me likes, like I used to, but it’s really irritating when others clearly don’t put in the same respect and care into how they respond.
For real, if you don’t have an actual argument that you’re going to genuinely elaborate on, or at least something entertaining to add, can you just not be needlessly negative?

from Adam 22 having Nick Fuentes on his show to…you know who there’s been a huge push of conservative ideals in hip-hop these last few years a traditionally liberal genre

if you follow the dollars it’s probably gonna lead to a rich conservative donor or investor that realizes how strongly influence of hip-hop is on youth.
